VERSE 1
--------------
All my life I wondered
What could and what could’ve happened 
But the fact that I’m here rapping 
Is not owing to my action
For I’m lacking in a million different
Ways that don’t come close to Him
I’m Soaking in His Word
That by its power it was spoken with 


It's the Sovereign God who maps it
In fabulous paint and tapestry 
Woven in, it’s only Him
It’s Showing in His majesty 
Ignoring this, a travesty 
It’s Against your mental faculty 
To think within His hand 
He holds your life and other galaxies 


The stars the planets 
From Mars, Uranus, It’s far 
They revolve
When He calls
By His Word
They dissolve 
Brought from nothing into being
Now there’s something, see it clearly
Not some random act
But One acquainted with your life so dearly


Wrap your mind around the fact
That you're not independent, (No!)
You depend upon the very breath
That gives you step to go!
And if it stopped so subtlety 
Ending your life suddenly 
There would be no help 
No comfort 
You would go reluctantly 

Now I don’t relish saying this
We’re selfish disobeying Him
Rebels not repaying Him
For love is what’s sustaining men 
you know what length He goes for you
With chords of love He draws you to?
The giving of His Son
Upon the cross for you in pain He hung 

The Nails that pierced his hand
On either side of Him He took your sin
to think it can’t get worse
They crossed His legs 
And drove them through His shins 
All for you to make amends 
Trust in Him and He forgives
Run to Him and never enter 
Into judgment
He’s your true defense! 


VERSE 2
--------------
Now before I can share the Good News
You could use
Let me take a moment
And please hear, 
don’t refuse
This is something that few dudes
With true views deduce
They Do choose
Where others
Will Twist words and abuse

Rather dismiss than risk and loose
Swift in shoes
That’s why many churches are confused 
If it's only half the truth 
That pastors use
The mass of youth
Will lack the roots
collapse the fruit

This is something of a balance
We must keep and not be silent
focus on the one, neglect the other
Then we’ve subdivided 
The Word of God is how were guided
Old & New, their both united 
We don’t get to pick and choose
Skip that part and close your eyelids

We are called to preach the Word in whole
And let opinions go
The Wrath of God 
The Love of God
That’s what the cross of Jesus showed 
We tend to emphasize the latter 
Forget the former, doesn’t matter
Never would let the Bible set the pattern
So instead we flatter 


What we need to understand 
Is why the Son who came to die,
Who never did a sin commit 
Was given to be crucified 
And the answer we refuse to share
For reasons that are undeclared 
The Father killed the Son
Because our sin on him was laid to bare 


And were deserving of his wrath
With flaming fury, God is mad
He’s angry at the wicked every day
Don’t believe the words I say?
Book of Psalms, flip the page
Read the judgment being laid 
Chapter seven, verse 11
And you’ll see it plain

M A J E S T Y

CHORUS:
I wish that I could take off, spread my wings right now
Cuz holding onto nothing seems to weigh me down
I wonder what’s beyond those clouds in the sky
I take a breath, image when I close my eyes

I’d take off(x4)
Spread my wings and I’d fly….
==============================

There comes a point when you can’t take no more
Whether shards of glass and dogs lick your sores
You’ve been down and out 
Affected at the core
Even trust in God, but wonder what’s this for?

Cuz I’m tired of people
Doing me this evil
Fangs are lethal
And they quick to strike
Stay and fight to beat it?
Or I try to leave it?
But the grass ain’t greener on the other side


There’s a problem here 
And it’s inner
Wretched, vile and a sinner
From the top of the head 
To the soul of the feet
And the heart that’s at the center


Cuz I can point the finger out to anybody
And assign the blame like a task alloted
But the truth of the matter 
I’m the one who caused it 
With an attitude but never choose to stop it

I’m a time bomb that keeps ticking
Broke and ain’t no fixing
You can’t calm me down
Or put your arm around me
You can talk aloud, but can’t listen


It’s that introspection that’s missing
Examination, no vision
Diagnosing those symptoms
While the root, you seem so indifferent


Wish I could take off 
Hit the ground running
Really do something
Get my wingspan
And I’d leave man
Where those cloud stand
Sore above the sky
My feet will never land


Enjoy the breeze
And I’d never leave
Just to get away
Go beyond the seas
It’s the hope I have when I die
Spread my wings and I’ll fly 


=============================
Second Verse:

Christ came to let you know
Cast your cares and you can throw
All your burdens when you feel deserted
And your not encouraged; you plateau
There’s a lack, the fact there’s no growth
And my sins are stacked and act cold
And my minds distracted, I feel no passion
I’m quick to lash out, no joke


This where the rubber meets the road
And it’s anywhere you go
You can’t carry that heavy load
When your burdened down with that yoke
It’ll choke you out with a rope about
Leave you down and out without hope
Until you cry aloud while you taste the ground
Like you 'bout to drown and let go

But there’s One who knows you the most
This Sweet Physician diagnosed
And it’s not the money
And it’s not the work
Or your dark past with it’s ghosts 

It’s that sin nature
Where you feel caged in
Like a fever raged in your bones
But despite your sin, He came close
Dwelt with men, they awoke

So, now our minds are fixed
And though we slide and drift
Kept by His hand steadfast
Till we meet in the air
With the LORD we won’t care
About the plagues that have come and are past

Cuz we’re headed home
Though we feel we roam
While we journey still, we are not alone
He will hold us now
Spread His wings around
In a moment watch
Our feet leave the ground

T A K E  O F F ( F L Y )

CHORUS:

You were there
Without me knowing 
By my side
Day and night 

Through it all
You would show me 
Precious still
In your sight (x2)
———————————

VERSE 1:

I spent a long time running 
Try to catch my breath 
And taking shortcuts 
Through the woods 
I must confess 
It’s led me farther down the road
And brought me off the path 
And now I walk around in circles 
Till my lungs collapse 
I figure …..
Why settle 
For what’s second best? 
And seek the things of this world
That just don’t impress 
I took my eyes off of you 
Settled now for less 
Yet I wonder why I struggle 
And remain depressed
I think there’s something that’s within me 
That remains so unrelenting 
When I turn to you repenting
I still feel the weight preventing 
And no matter where I’m getting
It just seems it’s never-ending 
Like I’m stuck within contending 
But Im never apprehending 
It’s the war within
I can’t ignore or bend 
transformed or conform 
To the world of sin 
And through it all
Standing tall 
With you by my side 
Every care 
You were there 
After dark
There’s light 

[CHORUS REPEAT]

———————

VERSE 2:

But After 10 years 
You think you’d take the lead 
Instead of just complaining
You’d be training with the team 
There wouldn’t be debating
Educating till I glean 
Then I grow up strong
Leave the milk I need to wean 
And so it seems obscene 
That the weights I bring
Tend to hinder 
Then I end up 
With a ruptured spleen 
I’m fed up 
With this setup 
Like a junk machine
I regret I Took the debt 
Instead to just stay clean 
Can’t expect to get a leg up
With a crutch to lean 
You need to look to Christ 
Who for you He intervened 
Dove to the depths 
Like a submarine
Just pull you out the gutter
You were stuck in 
Like a dream 
And He propitiated
Now you stand redeemed 
And Your sin He expiated 
So that death don’t sting 
But the flesh still clings
Strength is lacking 
Fear begins to build up
And I’m soon reacting 
So I’m at your feet
And all my cares I’m casting 
1 Peter 4
To that text I’m latching
There’s nowhere else to run
But my bags I’m packing 
Like a window spiderwebbing
That I’m doomed for cracking 
This the sin that’s acting
What remains within
And even through the storm
I’ll never drown but swim
For you are ever by my side 
To advocate defend 
Said I’m precious in your sight
And that you’ll bring me to the end

P R E C I O U S

CHORUS:

Glory to the One and Only Thrice Holy God
Laud Our Adoration with a thunderous applause
Lord of all creation shining on us like the dawn
Lift our hearts unto Him 
Raise our voices in song 
This is our God
=======================

VERSE 1:

Take ya’ back, long ago
Before the ages started so,
Father, Son, and Spirit
In agreement lacking nothing, no

Decides to make a covenant
Stamped and sealed with blood in it
Father sends the Son
The Son agrees and bleeds to ransom men

From every tongue, tribe, and nation
Every location
Before the foundation
Of the creation
Taking Formation 
His Coronation
Standing Ovation
Yes, He came 
and was born in the form of a man
Lifted up on the tree but they really couldn’t see
This was part of the pact and the plan 

**Elected, selected 
By YHWH perfected**

It’s beyond amazing
Like a fire blazing
We could not arrange it 
No joke
Elements brought together
Under perfect weather 
And out of sheer pleasure
Let’s go!
This is Christ The King
The Word who took to flesh
Laying down his life
And putting death to death





——--------------------------------- 
VERSE 2 

And we are undeserving
Should indeed be burning
For our sin against 
The One we should be serving
But instead were spurning
Not the least concerning
But the LORD will judge
And one day’s returning 
Every word and deed
Will be brought to Him
And we’ll give account
For why we chose to sin
Disclosing, it’s approaching
And the day seems to be closing in
Don’t forget the Spirit
He is fully God
And indwells His people
So don’t disregard
He descends the depths
And hovers over death
And regenerates
His very name is ‘Breath’
    As He breathes within
And that’s life-giving
New affections
For Christ risen
His resurrection-s
Now ours with him
With His Power givin’
To empower Christians 

**He abounds 
in gracious patience 
With His Mercy New
That He now dispenses **

He will bring every son
That was lost to found
Every corner of the earth
Where the Gospel sounds
To break chains and strains
That holds them down
And Though the guilt and vileness
Of sin abounds
There is nothing that the enemy
can ever do to take away the union
That we have with our Savior now 
And that’s facts

ENEMY

Chorus 
We got an enemy
He continues to work in the shadows
The battle can never be won in the flesh 
You wonder how easy we sink
Into Mire and drop in the shadow of death 
You’re sleeping and now you must wake up 
Right Out of your slumber and take up
The sword of the Spirit
And hear 


He continues to work in the shadows
The battle can never be won in the flesh. 

You wonder how easy we sink
Into Mire and drop in the shadow of death

It’s easy when reading Ephesians
The armor that’s featured
Will tell you to guard
Every crease and those regions 
That people are weakened
He targets in fact 
He catches you sleeping Like Peter 
your teacher
Will wonder the reason
Your easing and lax 
Not watching in seasons
We tend to be slack 
That’s when he’ll be creeping 
With legions of demons
To leave you depleted and beaten
He’s seeking your total deletion
He’s bringing attacks
Lurking in shadows of nature 
Disguises his face?
 I am removing the mask

Far Too Long:


It’s been far too long
Now it’s strength I lack
Always weighing me down
Almost broke my back
Though I think I’m well deserving 
Of this burden I bear.
My heads been underwater
Time to come up for some air
It’s been far too long 

People when they see me saying
“What up?” what up?)

“Why’s your head hanging in the gutter?”(Gutter)

If I’m telling you the truth, man I’m fed up 
(Fed up)

Rain pouring down will never let up (let up)


Constant with down pour
When hearing it sounds sore  
This lack of emotion 
Been stirring inside

But not from an outsource 
I doubt that it sounds worse
The plague is encroaching
To bury alive 

You can think im erratic 
A moving current like static 
But really matter of fact is 
I’m just eating effects 

Consequential it’s bitter
A liquid dripping Like venom 
I’ll never get up I’m sitting 
My situations complex 

These are struggles I’m holding
You’d think I’m really devoted 
By How they’re keeping me floating
What a joke if you follow 


I’m laying down at the bottom 
A cryptic grave and it’s solemn 
With Every burden I brought em’
I hold it close and it’s hollow 



And I been standing in the rain
I Think it’s all vain
I figure this is bout as much 
As I can tolerate
I wonder if im 
Gonna see the sunshine today 

clouds overhanging now 
how much more I can take 
 
I forgot the way it felt
Losing joy for awhile 
I can’t breath 
Let alone, on my own 
Crack a smile 

This is more than a clock on a watch 
That is ticking 
I just figured see a difference
In myself real soon 

But the truth, I’m a pilgrim,
This is not my home
So I’ll never be fulfilled 
In this place I roam
I can feel it through my bones
Why I make these songs
That can get me through the day
So I don’t lose my sight 

Though my chest is overwhelming 
Put my eyes on Christ 
So I can feel my need for Him
And Not to fix my life 
Need to get a bigger vision
For the strength to fight 
Hope to bring it to an end cuz…..
It’s been far too long 
———

I’ve come to hit a point
To where I’m tired of the wait

problems needs solutions 
Cuz I’m dying to escape

But to justify dilutes it 
Setting fire to this place

I’m a mess and I confess
I won’t retire till the grave 

I’m running in circles
The more that it worsens
I’m sick to my stomach
I need a relief

Held like a captive
Because of my actions
And how I’m reacting
A constant repeat 

I don’t care what’s the figure
Cuz neither drugs or the liquor 
Are really pulling the trigger 
To bring a solvent to me 

Hearts are filling persistent 
They’re never bringing fulfillment 
Fruition isn’t sufficient 
It barely comes to my knee 

trouble covers my vision 
It’s getting harder to see

And crawling out of the rubble
Instead of leaving it be 

I think it’s time I repented 
For every sin I committed 
With  Every thought I invented 
left me feeling the sting

[Chorus]

Travel down the road thus far
And life has brought you low
It matters who you know 
The lessons are best learned
From those who come before 
The path is never roses
So just focus on your goal
Until you are home

============================

[Verse]

It’s words of wisdom needed
Not what this world is seeking
Tend to emphasize senses
When pheromones be peeking
We seem to take our cues
From those who lack understanding
And mostly move in motion
With whatever cards we’re handed   
Instead of taking time to ponder
Deep and wonder why
We never seem to second guess
but continue in our strive 
We need foundations built on 
Better solid ground than this
So seek the wisdom from above
And not the wisdom from among the kids
Cuz You ain’t gotta try to be cool
Just cuz others follow
Carnal is their way
It’s paved polluted and it’s hollow 
Pressure from your peers
Sometimes, in fear, can overwhelm you
And it’s feels as though to swim against
The current can be lonely
Cuz we much would rather compromise
Our morals for the crowd
Our silent stand alone
Sometimes, in turn, is speaking loud
But to do what’s right and honor God
Is what we’re being called to
Salt and light among the dark
To spark is speaking volumes 
Don’t idolize the garbage that is seen in streams
And hit shows
Run them through the filter of the Scriptures
Does it get close? 
Does this align with pride and stride
For selfish gain and splendor?
Or does it seek to take itself
From out among the center? 
Ambitions you’re pursuing
The friends that you are choosing 
These matter, yes in fact,
They will impact your every movement 
So hang with those with tender hearts,
Integrity and character
Who, no matter what you're going through,
they always will be there for you

I haven’t counted Mississippi since back in the day
When I was younger, playing ball with the kids where I’d stay 
The sunshine, beaming down, Florida sun with them rays 
Drinking water from the hose, concrete where it’s paved
And that’s the road I surely traveled
It was circled in fact
And that’s a metaphor for life
Your starting back where your at 
Cuz when we fail to learn from history
Like my records that’s stacked
It’s like a turntable loop 
That never ends and it’s sad 
Now I’m a dad
And I don’t want my son 
On similar paths 
So if he learns from my mistakes
Then that’s how legacies last 
It’s a fine line  
To balance and maneuver that road 
And there’s probably wiser folks
With helpful stories they’ve told 
Like..time continues speeding and we’re left in the dust 
We wonder how we see such beauty bring erosion and rust 
Chasing paper, 
It’s a vapor
Now you see it, now you don’t 
Wearing out like a coat
Learning the lesson by rote (FAITH FLOW!)

L E S S O N.   L E A R N E D. (Prod. by Docent)

Erased:

Every single chain (every chain)
I used to claim  (I used to claim) 
Is broken, He
Set me free
He Washed
Washed away my shame  (my shame)
For when He came (when he came)
all my guilt erased (he erased) 



How can one man bear the wrath and guilt
By a single sacrifice, His blood was spilt
And he took the cup
And to the brim its filled 
Was delivered up and would indeed be killed 
And all for what?
There’s nothing good in me
But because He’s love
Within His very being 
Reaching out to clutch 
To redeem - was crushed 
We were of the dust
he came down to us 
There just so much
I don’t have the right words 
To express 
So my mind erupts 
At this contemplation
Wow! Gods amazing 
He would condescend
To come and rescue punks 
And so we lift Him up
He gives grace enough 
To cover every sin 
That we see corrupts
It’s what gives this song
It’s motivation 
In Christ alone
There’s No condemnation
