Feat. Tha Real U & The Essence
[Intro]
God, just praise him...
God, just praise him...
[Verse 1: Lil Stewy]
(Yeah)
Going in with humbleness
So you can know what's on my mind
Cause today I'm shooting high
Michael Jordan in the mind
Yeah
Lemme draw a picture
And go Pica**o on the beat
Please take a second
Just relax and take a seat
Glory be to God
Reaching out for understanding
On my bended knees
In my weakness
I'm still praying
Praising
Reaching out for His Glory
And the promise that He made me
He made me
I dream about a day when chasing money
Is the last thing on my mind
When I'm on stage, take the mic and let it shine
Like the time is right here, the day is right here
I pray that God's immaculate plan becomes (mine)
Perfect in my imperfection
Yes I'm praising His name, knowing that I am His selection
By His Word, and His Spirit, and His blood
And the Grace of God
Just praise Him and you will go far
[Hook]
The dark nights and coldness that follows
I can't help but think about tomorrow
When the limelight shine on me
And I
Get my chance to break free
The dark nights and coldness that follows
I can't help but think about tomorrow
When the limelight shine on me
And I
Get my chance to break free
[Verse Two: Tha Real U]
(It's Real)
My life is just a question
When I'm low on ambition
I'm stuck in a world
Of romantic fiction
I pray for blessings
Cause without them I'm nothing
And if you ask for something
Please remember all my loving
A morbid collection of adjectives
An audible selection
That makes Hip-Hop
A lyrical suggestion
I'm sickened by the fact that I ain't them
But I'm glad in myself
Cause I'm sincere
Dear brethren
Truthfully
My honesty compels me
The Lord surely made me
Molded me and shaped me
I guess I'm deep
But my depth is hidden in sorrow
So now I'm all alone
In the time that we borrow
From That I'm Dreaming
Through all those Long Nights
I'ma Underground King
If I remain in this fight
Let's take flight
Up to the sky
Keep giving it another try
Till we die I will spit
No lie
[Hook]
The dark nights and coldness that follows
I can't help but think about tomorrow
When the limelight shine on me
And I
Get my chance to break free
The dark nights and coldness that follows
I can't help but think about tomorrow
When the limelight shine on me
And I
Get my chance to break free
[Verse 3: The Essence]
(Essence)
See the story is
Not in the game for fame
No need to know my name
Music just frees the pain
So it's not all in vain
Sometimes I go insane
Sometimes I feel so blessed
Heart beating through my chest
It's time to break free
Some people strive for the money
Some people strive for the love
While I just strive for the blessings
Yeah blessings sent from above
Sometimes I'm free like a dove
Sometimes I feel like I'm trapped
So I resort to rap
It's time to break free
(Yeah) but I'm a God fearing man
And I think God has a plan
And it's written in the sand
If you're with me hold my hand
So raise your head to the sky
Descend your knees to the ground
Ya kings and queens wear the crown
Pick yourself up when you fall down
Success is key
And the key to success
Is to never try less than your best
(Than your best)
Yeah go harder and go further
Raise your prayers to the Father
And you will see
You're better than the rest
(Rest)
[Hook]
The dark nights and coldness that follows
I can't help but think about tomorrow
When the limelight shine on me
And I
Get my chance to break free
The dark nights and coldness that follows
I can't help but think about tomorrow
When the limelight shine on me
And I
Get my chance to break free
