Loose Ends

Yeah, I'll tell you
To be honest there ain't really much tell (Yeah)
I was tryna save you from yourself
I was thinking 'bout ya all the while thinking 'bout myself
Didn't wanna tell you I still had my heart with someone else
And my ex just left a message told me hit her on her line now
I ain't call her back 'cause when I did she'd always wild' out
I been tryna cut all of the drama and the strife out
Dig into myself and let the light inside me shine out

Letting all my pride out, admitting to my crimes now
Now I'm taking time out to try and make 'em right now
Standing on the truth ain't no room for compromise now
I do this for Christ, bottom line now (And I know)

And I know it hurt a lot but it's often in the dark you find your true friends (True friends yeah)
But my mama always told me if you take a stand for God you'll probably lose friends (Lose friends yeah)
And I know it broke your heart but it'd probably be harder if you knew less (Knew less yeah)
Those soul ties had me tied up now I'm out here cutting off these loose ends (Cut 'em off right now)
And It was keeping me from God so I had to cut it off no loose ends (Cut 'em off yeah, yeah)
But now I'm giving all I got everything that's in my heart no loose ends, yeah

Yeah
And I'm cutting 'em off
Two edged sword in my hand as they fall
Hammer in hand nail my flesh to the cross
I did it for me now I do it for God
And I do it for lot y'all
The church folk and the players at the Mardi Gra
The young kids and the ballers yelling all tomorrow
'Cause this life ain't promised you could fall tomorrow
I'm tryna give 'em all a lesson to get it
From something better than quitting the Fathers
Blessing and wisdom take my intention and mix it
With something meant to be bigger than money treasure and women
Take my direction and vision and plug it in with the Mission
Cuz Ima get it till the day I die
They look at me as a leader but that's no surprise
I'm tryna point 'em all to Jesus when I hold the mic
But it gets hard when all my
Fingers bent on holding spite and that's why I'm

Letting all my pride out, admitting to my crimes now
Now I'm taking time out to try and make 'em right now (Make it right)
Standing on the truth ain't no room for compromise now (No compromise)
I do this for Christ, bottom line now

And I know it hurt a lot but it's often in the dark you find your true friends (True friends yeah)
But my mama always told me if you take a stand for God you'll probably lose friends (Lose friends yeah)
And I know it broke your heart but it'd probably be harder if you knew less (Knew less yeah)
Those soul ties had me tied up now I'm out here cutting off these loose ends (Cut 'em off right now)
And It was keeping me from God so I had to cut it off no loose ends (Cut 'em off yeah, yeah)
But now I'm giving all I got everything that's in my heart no loose ends, yeah (Cut 'em off right now)

And I know it hurt a lot but it's often in the dark you find your true friends (True friends yeah)
But my mama always told me if you take a stand for God you'll probably lose friends (Gotta take a stand now)
And I know it broke your heart but it'd probably be harder if you knew less (Take a stand right now)
Those soul ties had me tied up now I'm out here cutting off these loose ends (Cut 'em off, yeah, yeah)
And It was keeping me from God so I had to cut it off no loose ends (Cut 'em off yeah, yeah)
But now I'm giving all I got everything that's in my heart no loose ends, yeah

It wasn't easy at the start
All these people tied up to me pressing on me it was hard
I was running out of options till I turned and ran to God
I thought I had gone too far
Until I fell into his arms
Now I'm living in my purpose and I'm never gonna stop
I don't do this for the fame, I don't do this for the guap
I do this to make a change and I pray it touch your heart
You're the reason that I did it
Why I had to cut it off
Why I had to cut it off
