Okay now just imagine that I'm at the top of the latter
Looking down at all the struggles I beat by climbing faster
I know I've had it up to here
With these gang related drug addicts
I'm back at it mathematics of a fanatic
I don't have it tatted
But I've been marked up
Stamped and the manager call that branding
I call it destiny
Giving the best of me
To my Savior and passion and craft
And as for the rest of me
I just give it to the people
That are seeing the best in me
I wrote this down on paper
I know it's outdated it's crazy
I just run out of time
And my battery goes a lot quicker lately
I'm faithfully serving by
Reaching fatally hurting people
They never heard of me
Naw it hasn't occurred to me
Hold it taking a breath now
Taking the next step down
I got the lyricism and instrumentals
I will not let down
My whole life leading to a single moment
I hope I don't blow it
I know it
I know I'm finally unloading
All of these lines and verses
Get criticism from church probably
I know that this hurts
All of the people that think I'm the worst
For up and switching on them but I keep Christ first
And anybody with a problem need to sit down and learn
That I'm feeling one hundred percent
No fifty fifty like Dent
Putting the words together
Like they're clues at a crime scene
Heaven sent a Savior died to give us grace
Showed me my place
Though I've been dealing with a mental block
For like nine days
I just pray through it
I'm made new and I'm saved
Gotta thank Him on a daily
For the price that He payed
I've learned that speaking is speaking
I've learned that words are just words
And that it's only by taking action that we actually learn
Take it back to the basics
Family around the table they're praying
What happened to asking her dad before you be dating
You look at women like a piece of property
She don't belong to you
They judge me for my music
I do what I gotta do
And yes I say I'm all in
I'm just waiting for a yes or no
Use the tools I'm given til I get a red
I'm set to go
I pray that God'll give me patience
While I wait for Him
Heck I owe Him everything
He died to save me from my sin
I'm making points but not the kind
You make to win the crowd
They gon be calling me Ed Sheeran
The way I'm thinking out loud
Only thing I've given up is living it up
I swear that ditch is dug
The flow is good it could be better
I say time to switch it up
I been flipping out
To tell em bout the One
That's risen out the grave
I need His grace to give me faith
Though I been saved
I'm still a sinner
Still I falter
Ask forgiveness at the alter
Never questioning the book
Cause I have access to the Author
Jump high then I'm ducking low
If Imma die Imma die while I'm slipping blows
If Imma cry Imma cry cause deep down I know
That though He died to save them
They'd rather just let it go
When He was hanging on the rugged cross
He thought of you
He took the punishment of those who would
Reject Him and reject the truth
Father forgive them for they know not what they do
Is what He cried when He was on the cross
Looking at all the people spitting in the face of God
And yet we're living like we never owed Him anything
We're happy living in our sin until it causes pain
If you were drowning in the ocean
Would you pray for rain
They reject the search and rescue there to save them
That's insane
Listen boy the devil he been running round the planet
With a plan like he done planned it
Probably thinking that he ran it
Understand it probably never will
I just use the shield of faith to block the arrows
I ain't gonna end up as another kill
Just imagine that I'm at the top of the ladder
Looking down it at all the people that been
Climbing to disaster
Distracted by signs of empty designs
And trusted in lies that made them slaves
And their sin became their masters
Another spill more blood on the concrete
Another level of rebel is what we really need
To sever the ties
Who ready to rise
And shoot for the skies
And live in light of what He wants us to be
