Anndi Writes - FOCUS (Live) (Live) Lyrics

Why is it so hard to focus?
Why is it so easy to get distracted?
So many options at the length of my fingertips
I look at one thing that's not Christ and then I forget my assignment
I listen to one voice that's not His and then I question my calling
I entertain one person that's not from Him and now I'm heartbroken
It's not like God didn't warn me cause he told me from the beginning
But the thing about distractions is that they look so appealing
And the more you meditate on it, the more you start feening
And now your imagination has become a reality that you're living
And the moment you lose count and focus is the moment you become your own villain
See the battle of the mind is a real thing
I know how your thoughts can be running
I understand how your emotions can be controlling
And without focus, your driver never gets to its destination
You'll spend your whole life driving reckless and your passengers will never address it
And when you bring it up, they'll say
Just accept it
Right?
Cause that's how life is supposed to be?
I'm supposed to stay in this battle of my mind and face defeat?
Will I always be distracted when I have things that I want to achieve?
Do I have to wait til I get to my breaking point to be relieved?
My silence is a weapon, but it seems like it's killing me
Who else can I talk to cause it feels like it's only me?
Yes, being young and anointed isn't easy
But what's worst is when you've lost focus and thousands of eyes are looking at you waiting for you to lead
Not only lead, but lead properly into a promise land you're hoping to see
Focus, Focus, Focus
Focus, Focus, Focus
Focus, Focus, Focus
It's not easy, but it's necessary
If you've lost the battle in your mind, then you've lost in life
Are you gonna let your thoughts rule you or are you gonna take them captive and make them right?
Our goal should be to have a mind of Christ
So when distractions come your way, you can say
Nope, nope, nope and that ain't right
How dare you call yourself a failure and be associated with Christ?
How dare you walk with your head down when we're supposed to be in Heavenly heights?
It's time to focus and live for Jesus cause every day is a fight
And if you think this life doesn't come with trials then you've lost sight
Don't lose the victory because of where your focus is
The moment your focus is off, frustration hits
And in the process time is precious so don't neglect it
Overcoming sin and self makes a difference
Be faithful to the finish because there's a promise connected to it
Lord help us be focused on you and not on what we choose
Cause the world gives us all these options and none of them are you
Apparently everyone is 'living out their truth'
But God help us pick and live for you
The only thing I wanna be focused on is the Kingdom
Cause that's the only truth
Lord there's no other option but for us to focus on you
