Jet Trails

Airplanes - soaring through the sky
Jet trails on the tail of a passerby
Passed by in the passing lane, my past, bye
I don't wanna see you again, I'd rather fly like
Airplanes - soaring through the sky
Jet trails on the tail of a passerby
Passed by in the passing lane, my past, bye
I don't wanna see you again, I'd rather fly

Manipulated by succubi in a temptin' nation
Incapacitated: thought I couldn't escape
Because my incarceration was validated by lust
I adjusted to the broken mind
See the bust
I didn't want to stay, but leaving felt like treason
The reason may be for the seasoned it's easy
To be devoured: powerless
Coupled with shame and cowardice
Survival of my sexual impurity was merely the logical result of my decision to feed it
The better part of seven years
Ate by my dependency
I couldn't say "Nein" to my tendency
I prayed for the day my addiction unfriended me
'Cause I felt defenseless against this enemy
I wanna be a better me: I'm rejecting pornography
The key to that freedom is falling in love with the Trinity

Airplanes - soaring through the sky
Jet trails on the tail of a passerby
Passed by in the passing lane, my past, bye
I don't wanna see you again, I'd rather fly like
Airplanes - soaring through the sky
Jet trails on the tail of a passerby
Passed by in the passing lane, my past, bye
I don't wanna see you again, I'd rather fly like

Since seventh grade, I've been ready, aimed
I'm feeling like an instrumental killer
I'm a veteran shredder - incredible
Better than ever
A lyrical tyrannosaurus rex - I'mma wreck
But like airplanes in the night sky and shooting stars
Now I'm lifted high
Jet trails on the tail of a passerby
But I passed the past tense, so I've passed you by
First rap song I ever heard was "Airplanes 2"
Funny 'cause now I'm riding off the lyrical jet trails
Rapping, singing for my God, I even nae nae too
It's so surreal - the sky is water and the sun set sail
I was sinking in my evil thinking I would die
But my Jesus took my piece and now I'm lifted high
So, I'm giving Him repentance and I'm living in forgiveness
And I'm leaving my jet trails behind

Airplanes - soaring through the sky
Jet trails on the tail of a passerby
Passed by in the passing lane, my past, bye
I don't wanna see you again, I'd rather fly like
Airplanes - soaring through the sky
Jet trails on the tail of a passerby
Passed by in the passing lane, my past, bye
I don't wanna see you again, I'd rather fly

The events of my past all act as airplanes:
Every one offers an opportunity to soar
The marks that they leave fade away: impaired stains
Jet trails acted as chains, but no more!
The old me is in the past: lost in tense, son
New creation born out of scars: redemption
Christ's death, resurrection and ascension
My saving grace so I can chase perfection
I've been washed clean
From the obscene
So any time the Enemy tries to replay that scene
I know I'm adopted by the Father who loves me
And I'm being shaped by the Potter's mercy

Airplanes - soaring through the sky
Jet trails on the tail of a passerby
Passed by in the passing lane, my past, bye
I don't wanna see you again, I'd rather fly like
Airplanes - soaring through the sky
Jet trails on the tail of a passerby
Passed by in the passing lane, my past, bye
I don't wanna see you again, I'd rather fly
