Lyrics
I just want to thank you for everything Lord
I express gratitude to the Lord for everything.
Every day you wake me up, the peace I feel at night
Every day, the Lord wakes me up, providing peace at night and the essentials like rest and water.
The rest you give me, the water I drink
I acknowledge the gifts from the Lord, including the sunlight shining on me.
You know what I'm saying? The sunlight that shines on me
Reflecting on the blessings, I recognize the shadows that lead me to peaceful places.
Beneath the shadows you made me to lie down in green pastures
The Lord guides me to lie down in green pastures.
I just want to thank you for everything
Expressing gratitude once again for everything the Lord provides.
This world hates me cause I love you
In this world, people dislike me because of my love for the Lord.
And how I know I can trust you I'm comfortable amidst a storm
I trust the Lord, finding comfort even in the midst of storms.
Torn between a battle of which I know I belong
Recognizing my belonging in a spiritual battle between angels and dragons.
Angels and dragons lord so I sing this song
Singing a song about the conflict between good and evil.
Born, not knowing the conflict would be invisible
I was born without knowing about the invisible conflicts.
Born again just to learn that it's more than physical
After being born again, I realize the spiritual nature of the challenges.
Speak the truth in yah book that's what you told me to do
I speak the truth as guided by the Lord's book.
Some people love lies more than they love you
Noting that some people prefer lies over the truth.
And they wait for me to fall so they can point the finger
Aware of others waiting for my failure to criticize.
Temptation can make us submissive to a demon
Recognizing temptation's power to make us submissive to demons.
Thinking, I go to hell cause I struggle drinking
Contemplating the idea that struggles like drinking might lead to hell.
Marijuana Spliff's and Hennessy I keep repeating
Admitting to repeating vices like smoking and drinking.
And I lust after big butts help me Jesus
Expressing a struggle with lust and seeking help from Jesus.
Knowing you spilled your blood enough but thats not a reason
Despite knowing Jesus sacrificed for sins, the struggle persists.
To continue in my sins I was raised on Easter
Reflecting on the influence of upbringing on behavior.
For heaven to invade earth it's rhyme and reason
Recognizing the rhyme and reason behind heaven invading earth.
Until I'm gone imma fight till I can't fight no more

-Why'd u give a gift to bring the kid world fame
-And I ain't even ordained I'm just a minister
-Cause you changed me to a saint from a sinister
