Things are always changing ever so evolving If things never change then they become boring But some things should Never ever change Is the order of creation it don’t need and intervention not Jason Bourne I know my identity The world didn’t give it I was Bourne with it Eternal minded yes I will live for ever Society’s Outkast forever ever, ever, ever? And I don’t minded my theology is grounded It’s not perfect but it will when am I heaven And yeah there’s a heaven like yeah there’s a hell There’s things that you can’t see like the wind but you can tell And You might call it stupid a religious fallacy A belief in Fairytales wrapped in history But you can’t change the past whitewash the victory The father son and spirit yes the trinity Lace your Tim’s lace your Jordan’s lace your doc martins lace your yeezys and put you hoodie up lets march through the streets IG it snap chat it send a tweet The return of the king the whole trilogy Life become precious when God makes you free So we fight for liberation with no apology Hate on my beliefs when you want freedom of speech? I listen to your words you only hear what am saying So it won’t make sense til you listen to me clearly You want the truth well you really can’t have it Cause is relative to you and everybody got a part in it My truth is found in the parchment of history In plain language I ain’t selling any mystery The law was fulfilled justification was extended So why we gotta live influenced by the enemy There’s no new revelations it’s all said and done we waiting for the day the return of the son This might offend you thinking blasphemy Jesus died for all so am in good company Lace your Tim’s lace your Jordan’s lace your doc martins lace your yeezys and put you hoodie up lets march through the streets IG it snap chat it send a tweet

Tripped Up 02:31
From the corners of my mind to this corner where I stand Where time is done stopped and reason has no rhyme Feeling are like raw onions to the eyes fixed stare no lies no compromise bitterness comes out but I can’t figure why Feed the old man everything that I don’t want starve the new one with things I should have an oxymoron but tell me whose the moron The one who lives a lie or the one that knows why Welcome to Sinville population is one one too many fall am the mayor of this town thinking that am it but this thought really kills my will not yours and that’s how we die crucified to our needs hanging from the neck instead of the cross where hope comes from I need some. And I Thought I knew better I thought I was strong but I got strung out so cut feelings like cord Gave it all away in the hopes to get some back But what I gave away wasn’t mine from the start plus it was rejected yeah I should of expected never should of done it though I felt neglected Jaded to it all make scars leave scars hurt people hurt people some hurts you can’t take back Live with regrets always floating in my mind time heals all I hope that they are right I know I was wrong so yeah that’s on me Acting like a kid when I should of acted grown Acted like a noob like a rookie in the game Running up the court should of sat on the bench No excuse now I need to make amends Lord I pray for forgiveness… amen

Wait 03:54
Is the weight upon my shoulders the hurry up and wait To Chase a little fame chase the paper game lost my point of reference and began to entertain chase some recognition though all of it in vain Nothing new under the sun so I rather seek the shade Under the wings of the almighty cause I know that’s not in vain. I need to focus some more on what is worthwhile while some see profit I want to hear from the prophets Vanity is everywhere I turn and it is there looking at the mirror swear I see it there - Never had it all never been abject poor blesses are the poor in spirit at heavens door? no time for stacking paper like my life depend on it spend time in prayer cause my life depends on it not perfect by any means I never claimed to ever be struggle with my thoughts sometimes they take control now is the lack of conviction the lack of a vision the lack of direction that keeps me in this condition or is it the pull of the world the lust no love Money power respect but we lacking true gold and not a Jesus piece hangin on my neck Cause it will never ever reflect how he came to save my neck so I Praise Him in exchange I know it’s not in vain He left His treasure and throne and He became flesh I believe by faith thought I still haven’t seen him I got glimpse of his grace when I saw my daughter face The love that I got for her is the love that He got for me like diamonds on a crown like the passion on the cross and love held him there as He took his last breath No jewels can’t compare cause that’s the true wealth Is the weight upon my shoulders the hurry up and wait To Chase a little fame chase the paper game lost my point of reference - almost lost my way to chase some recognition though all of it in vain Is the weight upon my shoulders the hurry up and wait Nothing new under the sun that hasn’t been done so I rather seek the shade stay loyal in my lane Till the sun comes down but until then I’ll Am a treasure in His eyes but a vessel in this earth not matter what you say His label gives me worth am His child, am His son Am a light in the dark Am the salt in the earth but am still just dirt Fashioned in His image molded by His hands The flesh means nothing this is not happenstance It’s been completely planned every step hans been ordained so for me to live is Christ and to die is only gain. But How much are we willing to do to get pay get the girls the whips the white picked fence forsake what we know its true most days and live a facade like we never gonna die Its the camel through the eye of the needle it don’t fit is the love of money the root of all evil it is Is the weight upon my shoulders the hurry up and wait To Chase a little fame chase the paper game lost my point of reference - almost lost my way to chase some recognition though all of it in vain Is the weight upon my shoulders the hurry up and wait Nothing new under the sun that hasn’t been done so I rather seek the shade stay loyal in my lane Till the sun comes down but until then I’ll

Eye Am 03:29
I can’t tell you how to feel Am just sharing how I feel My opinion in this track but its supported with facts Truth is absolute It ain’t about you It’s impartial, it is blind it is deaf nothing else It can bless when your a mess Give you peace when you’re stress if you profess to be the best None above you It’s a curse We vessel that are empty Vessel made of clay And we are who we are Based on what’s inside Some are broken some are chipped Some are cracked from within Some are new hardly used Some are tired overused some hide a great treasure more precious than gold you don’t know by just looking what’s inside what it holds At the end we all the same No matter how we look And Its what we have inside That makes us who we are Who I am Who you are Who we are What’s inside You think you might know but the eye can lie The package is a package it only hold the truth This body is just flesh but what’s inside of you? Who I am who you are who we are what’s inside I spy with my eye But my eye can lie I can look into your eyes See into your soul All will be reveal And is More Precious than gold You don’t know what I done You don’t know what I seen Walk a mile in my shoes and know where I been You don’t know my thoughts you don’t know my dreams Some are nightmares some are still dreams Cold sweat through the night running to the light My ego got me tripping went left instead of right You don’t know my strife you don’t know my stress My life is not mine so I follow His steps Feels like a long stretch and am a mess Am living for the now but Dreading my regrets Eye am an audio book being read out loud And when I hear my voice am crying out loud So I listen to His voice listen to His heart Eye am who I am made of mud sublime Who I am Who you are Who we are What’s inside You think you might know but the eye can lie The package is a package it’s only hold the truth This body is just flesh but what’s inside of you? Who I am who you are who we are what’s inside I spy with my eye But my eye can lie I can look into your eyes See into your soul The truth will be reveal And is More Precious than gold

I wonder if I’ll ever make and maybe go platinum Have that many fans that want to hear my songs I wonder when I drop my first week sales But I do it for the love so this logic just fails I wonder if I’ll ever ever get a co-sign A chain and a deal and a tour to headline Am wondering how many will support what I do Enough to make it worth it pay bills and buy food Maybe floss a bit little ice on the wrist Trick the Rav 4 and new clothes for my girls The struggle is intense I need to keep it real I got a 9-5 cause I gotta pay the bills The light bill phone bill car bill rent Sallie Mae gets the rest and Am left with only lint I wonder if am dreaming and I need to wake up But dreams do come true and I’ll never give up Am wondering and praying Lord am just saying Am tired of just wandering you hearing what am saying Am dreaming and praying wishing something more Grateful for your blessing and what you got In store Am I just being selfish dreaming for some more I guess I should be happy with what you have in store Maybe I need to see it different beyond just a show I just want to shine let my little light glow Am wondering and praying Lord am just saying Am tired of just wandering you hearing what am saying Am dreaming and praying wishing something more Grateful for your blessing and what you got In store I wonder what you think what you hear what you get When you hear what say in the music that I make can you relate to my life my anxiety and dreams or will you see me as another rapper in the scene another voice in the crowd wanting some attention posting every second and trolling for a mention I wonder if you get what am saying when am pushing For too long for too hard for so much all the time and nothing really moves well maybe just an inch maybe some fans will press play and lip-sync relate to what I say how I feel and to my dreams cause we all have dreams we want to reach by any means and that just means there’s a lot of sacrifices letting go of many things no matter what the price is I wonder if am dreaming and need to wake up But dreams do come true so I’ll never give up Am wondering and praying Lord am just saying Am tired of just wandering you hearing what am saying Am dreaming and praying wishing something more Grateful for your blessing and what you got In store Am I just being selfish dreaming for some more I guess I should be happy with what you have in store Maybe I need to see it different beyond just a show Lord I just want to shine let my little light glow Am wondering and praying Lord am just saying Am tired of just wandering you hearing what am saying Am dreaming and praying wishing something more Grateful for your blessing and what you got In store
