Young - The Oil (Thick Walls) lyrics

Verse 1 My heart paint a picture as I walking with my eyes close Life has a funny way of showing that you have foes On my knees cause I pray for a better day Can't understand why the Lord won't make a way Out the pain to His glory cause I carry scares I got a burden too bear I got a heavy cross On that narrow road without a Tara card Living life smart but I struggle with my unbelief Flesh won't die so hand him another reef Looked at me smiled cause he'll back in another week I am living for myself or the Lord's glory Keep me in this race when you could just ignore me Living stone so I'm prone just to stay in-place Saved by His love you call that His sovereign grace I got a choice to make behind this make-up Will I stay asleep or choice to wake up Dilemma 1 Chorus 2x The oil is so slick so I'm scared to make a move Behind these thick walls I am lost in the tomb d**h in my body I am haunted by my memory Inner me seeking out the love of the enemy Verse 2 I feel like I'm going crazy double minded man Talking out my faith like you hear what I'm sayin' Know that your real cause your spirit gave evidence But my flesh sold me on the things that seem relevant Why do I go to it I know that it brings pain But sin is so sweet as it course through my veins I'm feeling so strange cause I know I'm doing wrong And the devil trying to say I can never go home But your word says different so who I'm to trust The lust of the flesh or the God who saved us And that's a no brainer but the shame is still here An how can I run with this arrow in my rear The Lord said He's near so who am I to fear With the Lord in the car it's impossible to veer But I'm so scare to stir cause I know I got issues Wipe my tears with the spirit so I live without a tissue Chorus 2x The oil is so slick so I'm scared to make a move Behind these thick walls I am lost in the tomb d**h in my body I am haunted by my memory Inner me seeking out the love of the enemy Verse 3 I made my bed but I don't want to lie in it It's full of thorns and thistles I'll just die in it I tried to be my own man yeah my own god But I had an empty house plus a guard dog Why do I try to do it in my own strength An get mad at the Lord cause He ain't blessed it I'm like the dirt on ground or some dry bones A dog caught in them streets I need a way home I got stoned for the words that I never said And that Man on the cross He's already died Risen, living, homey that's a fear factor I got work out this faith will I see master This the story that is told through my family Walking with your eyes close you headed for calamity I know the pain is real but you'll never fail I got a penny for my thoughts so I wish you well Dilemma 2 Chorus 2x The oil is so slick so I'm scared to make a move Behind these thick walls I am lost in the tomb d**h in my body I am haunted by my memory Inner me seeking out the love of the enemy
