[Hook: J.R.] I wanna be closer to you I wanna be your hearts desire I wanna be number one Even though you play me shy I wanna be closer to you I wanna be all you need So won't you give me a try And watch Me change your life [Verse 1: The Amba**ador] Its the 2-00-3 and I'm lovin it "B" The blood covanent is still coverin my brothers and me Though we all love urban livin For us its not about "herbs" and "women" It's bout spiertin the words of heaven Lord something's still wrong wit the picture I'm workin for you daily but barely I'm gettin witcha Something keepin me from gettin wit You Diggin in your Scripture for food where there's infinite truth You get pushed to the side like when I'm co*kin a brim It's like we're on the couch but we're on opposite ends Lord, come and put a stop to this friend, I'm lockin us in Tonight it's me and You back in the pocket again [Verse 2: Phanatik] Goodness gracious Lord Anybody in the hood every taste this before Ever been chased by the Lord? Embraced by the warmth of the Son Then end up wit their face on the floor I love what you cooked up, to make me look up Said I could pick your brain if I picked your book up And ever since the day you and I hooked up Life has been Super Fly like Jimmy Snuka But I know you want more then Sundays, more then cliches What you want is for me to obey And if I can't give jack You dont want my hands if my heart ain't attached Wit out my heart to match, my lip service is dead like artifacts Though I call it worship And wit no ring on my hands and as a single young man There's more to give and I can hear you sayin to me [Hook] [Verse 3: T.R.U.-L.I.F.E.] Dad, I love you and you know it's true But I dont show it all the time when I'm goin through Its hard to stay in front of you Focus ain't easy, cats are greasy The world's systems is set up to decieve me or leave me I know where your love comes in And I know for sure you gon judge sin So as I work through life and watch my doctrine closely I stay close to you so you can get the most of me Now if things feel different I'm the one trippin If we seem distant I'm the one slippin You're the same as You have always been and will be Representin you is what fulfils me [Verse 4: The Tonic] God, I say you're the greatest light of my life Your corss, the greatest sight of my life When I believed, the greatest night of my life Since then, its the greatest fight of my life, to get at You That's why I'm so glad you dont do it like ... I Patience and love, you dont do it like ... I Forgiveness and stuff, you dont do it like ... I Even though I play you shy Cause I'm a model of the man Who be followin the plan But like the hood be sayin "Yo holla at your man", You say "Holla at your God" And read the love letter I inspired You're never satisfied until you're wit me And it gets me: I study wit zeal and energy Ona mission to affect the industry Mature in the faith, and I'm active in the ministry All that and I can still hear you sayin to me [Hook]
