Away Too Long (feat. Du2ce & Gil Gatsby)

Man I'm feeling good
Gave my life to the Lord never thought I would
Wouldn't escape His love even if I could
Stay reppin' over here until I'm under wood
It's a Christ thang
It don't matter where you're at
Catch a life change
Try to run get in your head like a migraine
He loves you He ain't lookin at you sideways
Trust me
I was lost to the chicks and the herb
Mind closed to His word whole life was a blur
Depressed and insecure
So stressed it was absurd
Totally unfulfilled was the word
And my mind was gone til I called on the Lord
He came with open arms
All of my sins is gone
Some of my friends is gone
I ain't trippin' tell the family I'm home
Let's go

I've been away to long
So glad to be back home
I've been away to long
I'm so glad to be back home
This is a family tree
Thank You God for believing in me
I've been away to long
I'm so glad to be back home

I've been away too long
I had to take my turn to get on this song
My Lord I thank You from me
Cause you didn't have to do what you did for me I turned away and got into some mess
My life fell apart and was a complete mess
But some was my fault
I take responsibility for the things that had happened to me
But Lord and behold you were still right here
This prodigal son came home with your arms open wide
To take me back into fam
And now its a party hot damn
Lord I really Thank You
There's not enough words to I appreciate You
Even when I was cold You never left my side
Yo Gil talk about the Lord one time
I was brainwashed locked up close to the flame
Lost and broke down going insane
Thought my life would never be changed
Lust plus temptation living in vain
Doing things hurtful but God over claim
Worldview attitude language for fame
Goodness of God I would never would claim
Me and Satan knew each other by first name
So I never felt conviction never felt all the pain
Never felt tradition never felt all the shame
Til God came in took the trouble away
I am thanking Him now that's why I'm rapping this way
See me in the church all the demons I slay
I was trapped in hell's kitchen but I made it ok
I'm a spiritual predator after my prey
If I say the devil now this is all I have to say go

I've been away to long
So glad to be back home
I've been away to long
I'm so glad to be back home
This is a family tree
Thank You God for believing in me
I've been away to long
I'm so glad to be back home
I've been away to long
So glad to be back home
I've been away to long
I'm so glad to be back home
This is a family tree
Thank You God for believing in me
I've been away to long
I'm so glad to be back home
