|
The Lord touched my lips and put His words in my mouth |
|
And like lukewarm saints, these words I'm gonna spit em out |
|
I have no worries because they call my Lord Jehovah Jireh |
|
And in case you don't know that means He's my provider |
|
Anything according His will He'll equip me with |
|
Money, cars, beats, rhymes, all for his benefit |
|
I hide his words in my heart so that I'll remember it |
|
So if I get famous then my will I'll surrender it |
|
My aim is not to flame the fame |
|
I frame the flame and daily maintain the name |
|
That reigns over every name, so I refrain the gain |
|
Of selfish pleasures, He came for pain |
|
Died on the cross so that I'll never be the same |
|
Once I confess my sins and become born again |
|
Most Christians don't last that long, but I believe in His word |
|
That's why my stability is strong |
|
They go back and forth [x4] |
|
They go up and down [x4] |
|
Like Teeter Totters [x8] |
|
Yo! It's only in His word that I'm stable |
|
Most Christians are unstable like 3 legged tables |
|
I must admit, discipline isn't easy |
|
I know I make it look simple but you gots to believe me |
|
Ya boy catches the bus to shows, waiting in the cold |
|
Feeling like an eskimo |
|
Holy pockets but I ain't heading to the check and go |
|
Stressed out my folk, and I be the 1st to let you know |
|
Can't be American Idol, so my Clay be Aiken (Aching) |
|
But I trust in the potter who molds me, there's no mistaking |
|
But sometimes I feel like Habukkak |
|
The wicked compasses the righteous is how that looks |
|
They seem not to reap what they sow and |
|
It seems like you won't pay what you owe but |
|
I trust in you regardless of how things look |
|
Cause I believe in every word in that Holy Book |
|
They go back and forth [x4] |
|
They go up and down [x4] |
|
Like Teeter Totters [x8] |
|
The flesh is never satisfied, in His Word I'm stable |
|
The Word has power, in Him I'm enabled |
|
To mortify sin and subjucate any desire |
|
Esteeming itself higher than my Lord's empire |
|
The work God gave me doesn't ensure my stability |
|
The fear of the Lord does, I dwell in His facility |
|
Without obedience, I couldn't not facilitate ministry |
|
And I would be worse than carnal rappers in the industry |
|
Many don't seek His kingdom 1st |
|
And that's why many in the kingdom thrist |
|
Cause the effects of sin are only temporary |
|
I've tried it before and found out sin ain't meant to carry |
|
Me through hard times, I cast my cares on Jesus |
|
We have a partnership, God really needs |
|
But we gotta put him 1st and not our rap ministries |
|
If we put Him 1st then we'll become everything we're meant to be |
|
[Chorus:] |
|
They go back and forth [x4] |
|
They go up and down [x4] |
|
Like Teeter Totters [x8] |
