[ Featuring Johnny The Light Bearer, Joe Write ]
It's bout time y'all got an update/ cuz I been sitting up late/ ain' trippin' though that's what some say/ got sick of just giving pump fakes
5 years and that's down the drain/ couple dozen things I'd be down to change if I had another chance to go around again
But praise God I don't sound the same/ lost some friends and we parted ways/ so excuse me if I seem guarded man
That flame was high and it's burning hot/ them execs will check you/ straight disrespectful/ don't let em get you/ I've learned a lot/ man
Now I'm working on my fitness/ running my own business/ just passed our second Christmas living' as Lethbridgians
Friday nights out there witnessing/ catch us giving em Christ/ we even got a couple kids with us
True that they're mine/ a few on my side/ two of the five/ got ages two up to nine/ ain't new to this grind
I'm clueless sometimes/ don't know what I'm doing at times/ but God is good even when I'm tripping like my shoes was untied/ yea
Free agent now making sure the soul is in tact/ cuz a lotta these dudes stay wearing masks like Covid was back
But what you see is what you get/ nothing more nothing less/ got a couple projects coming soon and we just pray that it bless...you
And I can see we're painted red my God he paid the debt
Through that blood, new Jerusalem wiping tears I shed,
Tryna stay the head of family through the stress,
Keep my mind on bigger things that's how we should stay ahead
When I held, my daughter, I felt the Father no Gwen Stefani, but there's no doubt,
Holler back, when facing troubles God my present help
They took our baby to the ICU because of health
Complications when she's out but me and Wifey got this peace
Newborn baby low blood count but we know who's got the, keys,
It's my God who plans the route, cause He be chief Word to Andy Reid,
He still got me when I'm down
God was with us through it Running through us, Carl Lewis uh,
Babies been doing great all praise God it's therapeutic
Aware the faith our greatest strength im feeling lucid,
I've been very stupid, but been growing hey, having babies gonna do that to ya
Shinning with no Kubrick but be shinning with the King
Like lighter fluid when it finds a flame
Moving as a unit work those hermeneutics for the name,
Family up to date baby bottles and a diaper change
You're probably wondering
How I got here
I fell at the bottom Down and out I dropped tiers
I mean I dropped tears
Plenty crying over odd fears
Became a daddy before a man. Is it not clear ?
(Make way if you got fear made way)
At this point you're listening the old Johnny done died
But you still see the results of my old life on my side. See them smile ?
The branches of my family tree
bearing fruit for salvation steadily planting them seeds but uh
My God caused the growth
My God He redeems
My God takes a filthy sinner dead and makes em clean
Takes a couple broken situations and everything in between, gives grace and mercy, a gift I'm unworthy to even see
Gives us wisdom to train in His ways
He numbers our days
I'm called to lead and steward these gifts
I seek His face
We double up, Brady bunch. How many kids ? We got 8
Seen some teens redeemed, and growing in grace
I pray you hold 'em safe
Speaking of safe
My treasures laid up in faith
Though these gifts are precious I relinquish control before I'll break
This is my family update
To my kin, and primos watching
My light ain't under basket I have no other options tell 'em light up
