TESTIMONY
Long days and sleepless nights
Tryna perfect my craft, tryna get it right
I praise The Most High cause he saved my life
So I'm staying loyal to Him even through the strife
Remember tryna mask emotions thru intoxication
Roll a 3.5 in the wood, I was getting faded
Ironically when I stopped I felt the elevation
Thought weed would bring me joy when I'm devastated
But it only brought me farther from God
Back in 8th grade I dreamed about being a star
Ride around in the city with the finest of cars
With some ice around my neck and a couple of broads
Use to want all the fame and attention and the fashion
Shining bright lights, yeah I wanted all the action
Looking for acceptance and to hear "congratulations"
Head of my class, valedictorian of the nation
But it's really all vanity
Only brings insanity
Make a man lose his mind and jump off his balcony
Like tryna catch the wind
As it swirls and it spins
Thinking that you close but it never really ends
Had intense battles with my spirit and flesh
I was a slave to sex
Couldn't keep it in my pants
Sorry to my ex man I did her so grits
Had to get down on my knees, talk to God and repent
Always try to be perfect, but I never will
But know if I slip and I fall, I'm gettin up still
Made a change and my life became a battlefield
These demons tryna come for me but they won't prevail
Cause The Most High protecting
I pray for His blessing
Not just for me but all those in my section
Pray for my fam and I pray for my brethren
Never be stagnant, I keep on advancing
In the end I hope I make it to them heaven gates
Really wanna see His face and just give Him praise
I just hope past mistakes don't seal my fate
But for now I stay strong and just keep the faith
Tryna perfect my craft, tryna get it right
I praise The Most High cause he saved my life
So I'm staying loyal to Him even through the strife
Remember tryna mask emotions thru intoxication
Roll a 3.5 in the wood, I was getting faded
Ironically when I stopped I felt the elevation
Thought weed would bring me joy when I'm devastated
But it only brought me farther from God
Back in 8th grade I dreamed about being a star
Ride around in the city with the finest of cars
With some ice around my neck and a couple of broads
Use to want all the fame and attention and the fashion
Shining bright lights, yeah I wanted all the action
Looking for acceptance and to hear "congratulations"
Head of my class, valedictorian of the nation
But it's really all vanity
Only brings insanity
Make a man lose his mind and jump off his balcony
Like tryna catch the wind
As it swirls and it spins
Thinking that you close but it never really ends
Had intense battles with my spirit and flesh
I was a slave to sex
Couldn't keep it in my pants
Sorry to my ex man I did her so grits
Had to get down on my knees, talk to God and repent
Always try to be perfect, but I never will
But know if I slip and I fall, I'm gettin up still
Made a change and my life became a battlefield
These demons tryna come for me but they won't prevail

Not just for me but all those in my section
Pray for my fam and I pray for my brethren

In the end I hope I make it to them heaven gates
Really wanna see His face and just give Him praise
I just hope past mistakes don't seal my fate
But for now I stay strong and just keep the faith
