Untitled......

God provides the light that His children supposed to follow
got the Word of Him in me, so my messages never hollow
i try to stay humble, cuz pride is hard to swallow
til u swept off the stage like bamas at the Appollo

i got the soul of a soldier and the heart of a champ
runnin full speed ahead, not worried about a cramp
used to live a sinful life, but now my heart’s been stamped
by the Man upstairs, so im livin in His camp

our sins froze the water, but we tried to keep rowin
cuz we was lost at sea, but His lighthouse kept glowin
never stopped movin forward, got the itch to keep goin
cuz God’s love was comin down like North Pole snowin
biggest thing movin, might as well be Samoan
and the crazy part about it is His love keep growin

so lemme stop here and pause to bow down
all glory goes to God, upon His head rests the Crown
once was lost in sin and sadness, but thanks to Him im found
used to be deaf and blind, but He’s granted me sight and sound

i try to offer up absolute faith and love
absolute obedience to the Lord, God above
but it’s hard to stay faithful in a world full of sin
evil spirits everywhere tryin hard to pull me in
so u kno every night, im on my knees givin thanks
life’s about wut’s in ur heart, but people focus on the bank

what do u think will matter when ur spirit leaves the earth
how much ur shoes cost or how much ur house was worth
the measure of a man is not what he’s done for himself
it’s how much he’s given to others, so its time to spread the wealth

ok, u fresher than me, but really homie that’s irrelevant
im tryna enlighten minds usin rhymes and lines that’s Heaven sent
cuz God gave me a mission and im just focused on livin it
keep shootin for the sky, kno i haven’t reached my limit yet

cuz life is like a gift but sometimes it's left wrapped
and some of the richest mines are sometimes left untapped
the world is like a nut that's waitin to be cracked
so it's crazy how some cats be sayin they feel trapped

u kno the hardest thing for me personally to believe
is the number of opportunities that people fail to seize
it's like people fail to see the signs that God is givin 'em
if u scared to chase ur dreams then u'll never be livin 'em

if u afraid to shoot for the stars then u'll never shine bright
so i always step to the plate when im in line for the limelight
and i prepare every day so that when the time's right
i'll shine the first time, cuz u can't rewind life

the plan is to keep my face to the sky, but my feet on the ground
im tryna change-up my path like i was standin on the mound
i been through the storm and i came out a changed man
glory to God first, so hard work is in the game plan

can't change what i been given, but i kno ima make the best of it
came from humble beginnings, but that don't mean i accepted it
this life is like a challenge, never stoppin til i've bested it
on my grind til i die, ain't no time for me to rest a bit
