Lyrics
You Cant go back on love
I told you
Pick up where we left off
I'll show you
Time's not a waste
When we're moving on
Found us a place
Where we belong
Shoutout to my father
He's been a good man
In spite of choices
Decisions that came before him
Novice living
His pigment is what forced him
To have a life outside the box he
Pushed toward it
My father had a chance to make it playing ball
His peers saw his cross and they
Watched from wall to wall
Embracing him
But peer pressure stung the altar call
So now his life consumed with
Felonies he breaks the law
My father struggled with addiction
Been to prison
Drugging was afflicting
Causing him to be distant
Buddy's soul was missing
He filled it with things that's sickening
God called his name
But he ran from being restricted
From living life
The righteous fight
To chasing thrills
The rush excites
The dopamine
He feels at night
He crash at times
Can't see the light
Yeshuah luminates the darkest night
For that reason I know my dad will be alright
The blueprint is in front of my eyes
Closed them to see what's behind
The Wall When I get over these lies
Sleeper's coming Awake, praise be to Yahweh
Shoutout to momma
This women here i'll honor
Patience in her persona
While enduring the drama
Dealing wit prima donnas
Growing boys every summer
Praying each day for commas
Yahweh won't break his promise
I remember the times where your pain was on yo face
A hardened heart
Jesus came to take its place
Embracing you
And loving you
Showing you there is grace
You won't be your mistakes
Your sons still love you til this day
Despite the challenges you faced
Discomfort torture suffering
Despite your faults inaccuracies
In the midst of your fallacies
We witnessed a masterpiece
Being shaped
This past Sunday we watched you
Get on stage and be ordained
To see where God has brought you
Thru your life is insane
You speak about your past
You never been ashamed
And I feel your pain
I love you momma
You healed from your traumas
I promise I will make you proud
Forever give you honor
You gotta remind me
Regardless of what I see
Trust in You
Falling down on my knees
This is where you'll find me
Overdue
Purpose what I'm finding
When You adjust the lighting
It's visible
Taking my pain
Taking the rain
THE SON STILL SHINES
Now let's talk about my life
Talk bout feelings i invite
Talk about the bondage chains
And void i felt inside
Talk about my God
Talk about my traumas
Talk bout my design
Talk bout my convictions of healing From poison pesticides
Let's talk about the reasons
Talk about me bleeding
Got jumped for help im pleading
Lord im in a season
I dont know what's needed
Talk about my calling
Before I get deleted
Talk about my son and wife
And all of our future breedings
Let's talk about it
I'll tell you how my father was
Absent but not his choice
Met him in the ninth grade
By grace I'm hearing his voice
Tell you how my momma raised me and my brother
Kept us wrapped in coverage
Every night on her knees praying to our Lord
Tell you how I was bullied for my complexion
Momma tried her best to raise this black child in a recession
You heard all my flaws so lemme ask you this question
Will you heal your traumas and be who you are destined
This for you
But when anything is exposed by the light
It becomes visible
For anything that becomes visible
Is light
Therefore it says
Awake O sleeper
And arise from the dead
And Christ will shine on you
