J-Son - I the Beast lyrics

[Verse 1] If pressure bust pipes, then I'ma crack homes Too much up on my back bones That's wrong, sorry, that's Ye flow I'ma switch the pace though, got to put you back on See often I wanna be them Wanna be the stars in your sky when I see them Lord help me see that they're falling, I'm struggling Coveting what won't last through tomorrow [Hook] Hands up if you just want the light to shine And expose what you're trying to hide, then get your hands up … up I'm trying to fight for mine ‘Cause I don't wanna live a life of pride, then get your hands up … up Like you're reaching for the sky, up … up But you ain't reachin' for the sky, nah You can come and fight the “I” If you don't wanna live a life of pride, then get your hands up [Verse 2] Pride is a beast, and I know it lives inside of me, proof Fruit reveals the core, I'm just showing the root Wanting what he has, desire his space Covet, that's just pride on display live in HD Yeah, I ain't relyin' on faith When I ain't comfortable where God in his grace chose to place me And it's evident who's ruling my residence When I'm willing to only go where I want him to take me I won't be fake, hiding how I feel Now I'm in his grace, I'm okay with being real Mask off my face they look and they go "ewww” ‘Cause they don't see the beauty that's revealed I ain't great but I'm saying that he is So I'm saying that I'm safe, I'm saved and I'm his I pray the listener will get it right I'm getting rid of the darkness by putting this in the light [Hook] Hands up if you just want the light to shine And expose what you're trying to hide, then get your hands up … up I'm trying to fight for mine ‘Cause I don't wanna live a life of pride, then get your hands up … up Like you're reaching for the sky, up … up But you ain't reachin' for the sky, nah You can come and fight the “I” If you don't wanna live a life of pride, then get your hands up [Verse 3] Pride's at the heart of our depravity And the Lord saw the tragedy So sent his Son to raise us up ‘Cause if you notice right now we're all subject to gravity Adam had to bite a Apple ‘Cause I find it to be a scary thing That our heart's at the Mac show That “I” come before everything Who am I to really think that I must Be exalted, when really I deserve to be crushed? Homie that's awful, really I just need to be flushed ‘Cause my heart's out of order, I need you to touch me So I'll esteem my brother above me And know I am who I am ‘cause I Am loves me If I'm not living for his glory alone Then that means I got soli Deo gloria wrong [Hook] Hands up if you just want the light to shine And expose what you're trying to hide, then get your hands up … up I'm trying to fight for mine ‘Cause I don't wanna live a life of pride, then get your hands up … up Like you're reaching for the sky, up … up But you ain't reachin' for the sky, nah You can come and fight the “I” If you don't wanna live a life of pride, then get your hands up
