I was brought up under that dress to impress, make sure your family has the best.
Even if that means that you can't wear a lot of diamonds on your neck.
Because these days people pretend to be nervous wrecks, stupid, crazy, all for a check.
So as I work to keep my head up and still get rest, I find myself writing through my problems fighting stress in my chest.
So when is too much too much? when you start loving people beyond their evil, and you've gained the King's true touch?
Or is too much then too late? Because you decide to be authentic about your religon and quit living two faced?
See i've been saved by true grace, no longer a slave to the grave, changed by the blood that Jesus Christ gave.
I want to bring hope to the heartless, light to the darkness.
Utterly destroy all vice until the day i'm a carcass.
Most folks don't listen to what wisdom has said, fist used to go in the air for rights
Now they come down and give you black eyes instead.
You see I claimed to be sane, until the day i realized, I didn't have clear sight, I was looking through some smeared eyes.
Smudged with some things God disgusts, I wasn't looking for a blessing, I was yearning for some luck
But
Things change quickly, once God's power hit me, i was no longer a rash rascal, faith in Christ iffy.
Many are modern day kamikazes
Comminting suicide to their soul.
My goal is help them be made whole.
Old and youth alike.
Whether it's with poetic prowess , or on stage with a mic.
