Anndi Writes - Mask Off (Live) (Live) Lyrics

I'd like to reintroduce myself and say now I'm finally everything God called me to be
It took me a little minute, but I took off the mask and now I'm finally free

See, I had to take the shades off and put on my glasses to clearly see
That my identity comes from Christ, not what you think of me

Now I could care less about your opinion because it got nothing to do with me
I'm done living for people
I'm living for the King of Kings

Galatians one:10
If I was living for the approval of men
I wouldn't be a servant of the King
If I would listen to everything y'all say then it would be to people please
I'm not bound by what people say
I'm only a slave to what God speaks

I used to idolize my hair so much, it became my identity
What's my next hairstyle?
What's the new wig deal?
Someone send me a hairstylist please
Society taught me a black girl can't rock her hair like this because it's not pleasing
But God was confused on why I covered up the very thing he wanted to be seen
He gave me this hair to embrace
Not to style it based on what people think

The big chop wasn't for a hair journey
This a Godfidence journey
What you mean?

So news flash
Mask off
This the greater me
I said news flash
Mask off
This the greater me

I'm so done living by people's standards
Everywhere I walk, you gonna see Christ in me
Every inch of my body gonna glorify God and that's a guarantee
Aye, mark my words because by the end of the year
I'm gonna be that Anndi
You ain't never seen

Stop living for people and get a hold of who God is calling you to be
If you keep trying to walk in someone else's shoes, you gonna have sore feet
If you keep trying to live someone else's dreams you just a copycat, you can't be no OG
If you keep trying to live someone else's dreams you just a copycat, you can't be no OG
Didn't God give you a vision that was unique?
You over here trying to steal someone else's bars that's why you off beat
You over here trying to sing someone else's songs
That's why you off key

Listen to what the shepherd is telling you because you're his sheep
And whatever he tells you
Don't bring it to people to validate whatever he speaks
If He said it, He said it, and it's complete
On the cross, He said"It is finished"
Not I'll come back next week

So pick up your cross daily
It's not just a piece of jewelry
You wear it around your neck for fashion
But I wear it because it reminds me that He saved me
I'm on a whole other level because I gave God the real me
So take off your mask and be who God called you to be
Because

News flash
Mask off
This the greater me
