lyrics

Hook BMII

I don’t do this for applause, aint tripping off the jewelry or the cars, I been there homie, that’s a lost cause/ I do this for the Lord, I been in this, I do it cause I’m called, He set me free from living like a fraud/ He made me complete, let em know, it aint about me, or where I go/ He saw me in my need, came to set me free, yeah now I serve Him homie, you know what it be, that used to be me

Vs.1

I got the victory, with a losing record, I stand on truth, so I stand corrected/ He laid sin to rest, the moment that He resurrected, so I starve the flesh, I’m anorexic/ I been freed from the righteous I had, in fact, all I had was filthy rags, like a laundry mat/ yeah so what I got to prove? Except without Him that I’m off key, auto tune/ yeah yall know how the Father do, He pulled me out my grave, I been exhumed. I can’t pursue what I used to do, trust me, I treat the past like hammer, can’t touch me

Hook

Vs.2

He took them chains off, no more shackles on me, I’m still a slave, different master homie/ my dudes relate, this isn’t new to us, I mean we still the same, it’s just a newer us/ and you can move with us, it’s more than just music, trust, yup we on a movement, that’s been moving for 2000 plus/ My God is 3 in 1, that’s the Trinity, plus He’s out this world, I mean literally/ who else you know would take blows to the flesh, just to reconcile foes, cause He chose to be stretched/ I know dudes is gonna oppose but, we called to the text, and I’m called to be faithful ,even if they reject

Hook

Vs.3

There is more to life than this, money, cars, and fashion, that’s just the life you get, when all the cameras flashing/ but what happens when the lights go off inside the mansion? Look at the drug addictions, they trying to fill what’s lacking/ and stardom only brings a false sense of happiness, cause once their time is up, what happens after this? / And that’s a question that you have to ask yourself huh? Because if this is it, then build your wealth up/ but if there is more than this you’re faced with a decision, and that means that life is bigger than the moment that you live in/ yeah and if it is bigger than you, than that means you have to answer for the things that you do

Hook
