Dare to be different

We live in a world where trends are more than father figures
Where depression is more faithful to us than Christians are to God
Where we vat and sit taking the batten of unfaithfulness
Lies and hatred that has been passed down to us
From our Forefathers generational curses

We'd rather smoke weed than to be told by our religious puppets
I mean pastors no offense given, just an Observation
Check your heart, I mean your motives
Check your bank balance, I mean your faith

This is the very thing that moves us, our faith
We are told Jesus would never accept us
Jesus would never forgive us
Jesus was never here...

We are told to smile and wave, never show how you really feel
(Makes you look weak in the eyes of the world)
Boys don't cry, girls do

And you wonder why suicide rates are so high
They say Get High (For that moment everything seems a bliss)
The Only way to escape the high is to hang high as you feeling low
That's what they want us to think

They want us to feel real in their fake world, the media
Don't base your self love according to the media it's all Fake
Dare to be different society
And the community at large suffers from application of wisdom

Our parents are holding us hostage to their long forgotten dreams
Not realizing that we also have dreams that we want to achieve
Let's not just speak some change but actually become the change!
We are told we are too young to do the right thing (We're persecuted)
But we not to young to do the wrong thing?

If only doing the right thing was promoted
As much as the wrong thing, we'd live in a better community
Everybody makes mistakes
We all need to learn and move on not mourn and hold on to the hurt
Forgiveness over bitterness

We all different, unique in our own special way
And yet we are compared to as if we are models (Great for display)
But no intellect. They are wrong!

God placed us on earth for a purpose
That purpose to complete with one another and not compete with one another

Let's break generational curses
Let's not get married because of circumstance
But because of God's unfailing love
Let's not base our success on our financial status
But rather on our spiritual status with God

One who is rich in spirit is rich forever
Let's be different, and honest
I dare you to be real
I dare you to believe in yourself as much as God believes in you
I dare you to seek God's face and not just his blessings
Because the blessing is in the unseen

I dare you to walk by faith and not by sight
I dare you not to think about what other people think about you
And only focus on what God thinks about you

Because at the end of it all God has the final say!
