Blinds

Turn God's mic up and turn me down

May the truth in every word be found

It's the world renowned all-knowing God image with my flaws showing

North Star glowing, lead the lost to where the cloth opens

Now we're speaking in a lingo where the masses ain't relating

They're distracted by the gringo on the paintings

Blonde hair and blue eyes, I don't care who lied

Devils gon' dev, man we out here living new lives

Cutting out the fried food, sharp without a suit and tie

Digging in the scripture, boy it's royalty in you and I

Who am I? Sho' nuff, I ain't get the glow

Til I let the Christ in, started opening my soul up

Both hands high, that's in praise, not a hold up

Between God and man, dog, the plan is to show love

I ain't here to argue about the gays and abortions

The fame or the fortune, His name or the origin

Details are seashells washing on the shore and then

God is like the ocean, you can't see him until you're free of self

And freedom, trust, and value are in the same place

Foolishly, I'm chasing you and we ain't in the same race

My saving grace is pumping through the speakers now

Turn it into lyrics when it's painful just to speak about

Like how the porn addiction hit me like a cancer

Or one day I'm a have to man up and forgive Amanda

Now I ain't got the answers, but I've got a million chances

Here's to a million more, and millions from my stanzas

And buildings for my grandkids if that's even in the cards

Lately I'm a peace, I'll be Gucci if I see tomorrow

I've learned you have success if you have a breath

Still inside your lungs, we was young and we had to flex

Now at 31 and what I wanted still ain't happened yet

See what matters more and what's important to my happiness

Never been the flashiest, I don't even look at that

But when I'm staring in the mirror, it's a giant looking back

5'6 Frame but the picture's much bigger though

Physics don't apply when the spirit's untraditional

Strength in my weakness, poems when I'm speechless
