It’s been a long time since I’ve been home I’m out here trying to make it on my own
But I know you’re not far away
Every time I close my eyes I pray
I see your face just like the day you saved me
You always chase me down
And when the night comes and I’m feeling cold
Please just remind me that I’m not alone
God I know your love will never fade
I won’t die ‘cause you are mine
And grace has made a way
Jesus my greatest savior
You always chase me down
(The following rap verses written by an anonymous friend)
Why did they tell me that
Why did they tell me I would never make it
Why did they sell me that
Why did I buy into all of their lies
If someone could tell me that
If I could go back
I probably would tell myself not to believe it
These are my demons
These are the reasons
I stay awake in the blackness
I can feel snakes in the mattress
I’ve come awake to your tactics
Evil is fake like an actress
I know those lies are attractive
But now we can fight it with actions
Light up a match
And stash it
Under my mattress
Burn me to ashes
I’m not the same man I was
He’s in a casket
That was a mask that I used to wear
And I’ll throw it out trash it
I’m thoroughly tacit
I’m durably lastic
I’m blurrily looking at truth through glass
But somehow I grasped it
You always carry me
They try to bury me
They feed me lies but
You give me clarity
I’m barely making this journey
It’s harrowing
Music is therapy
Give me a beat and a mic
And I’ll light it like match with the kerosene
You were still there for me
When I hated you terribly
You would still care for me God
You would still bear with me
Now that I’m home with you
I feel your love in the darkness
You’re above all of this
Your love is calling us
