Truth and Life

Love is the purpose of life
I know it's dark outside but there will be light
It's gon be a bumpy ride so hold on tight
I promise, everything will be alright
He is the way and the truth and the life
No one comes to the Father except through Christ
For we walk by faith and not by sight
Walk by faith and not by sight

They shutting down movies iono what's real
Cops committing murder iono how to feel
They want us to watch innocent people get killed
But they don't want us to protest, they don't want us to kneel
I refuse to be complacent, racism is blatant
The Trump administration bleeds discrimination
We need reformation of education
So the next generation can end segregation
This great nation is not what it seems
It's not the home of the brave or the land of the free
Homeless people on the street, starving to eat
Black people on the ground, trying to breathe
George Floyd, say his name, keep talking bout him
Breonna Taylor, say her name, don't walk around it
It takes action for change to happen
Political propaganda is just a distraction

Love is the purpose of life
I know it's dark outside but there will be light
It's gon be a bumpy ride so hold on tight
I promise, everything will be alright
He is the way and the truth and the life
No one comes to the Father except through Christ
For we walk by faith and not by sight
Walk by faith and not by sight

As I think about my children and the world we live in
This ain't the type of world that I'm trying to give em
This is a bad religion, creating division
This is more than a vote, this is a vital decision
For the future of my family, the future of humanity
It's driving me crazy, it's got me losing my sanity
I hope it's not in vanity but damn it if I stay silent
All I want is some peace and quiet
I ain't mad at the riots, I'm mad at the bias
It's not rocket science, please stop the violence
Fuck being compliant I'd rather be defiant
This is ain't David and Goliath, together we are the giant
If we stand up we can change the rules
They can't defer these dreams like Langston Hughes
You can't change my mind, can't change my mood
If it's the last thing I do I'ma scream my view

Love is the purpose of life
I know it's dark outside but there will be light
It's gon be a bumpy ride so hold on tight
I promise, everything will be alright
He is the way and the truth and the life
No one comes to the Father except through Christ
For we walk by faith and not by sight
Walk by faith and not by sight
