Deep Waters

I've gone through deep waters
But the rivers didn't drown me
I've gone through the fire
But the flames didn't burn me

I've gone through deep waters
But the rivers didn't drown me
I've gone through the fire
But the flames didn't burn me

Been told I'm too extra that I should tone it down
That why I sing and I rap that I should pick a sound
They keep throwing me in the dark but I shine through
I thank God every day I don't look like what I been through
When depression kicked my ass I didn't know what to do
I was smiling through the pain and hardly no one knew
Turned to God suicidal thoughts were coming through
He said grace always wins and I'm not done with you
I lost my grandma last year I never felt that pain before
Shit made me appreciate life 100 times more
Always do the sign of the cross before I go about my day
No one formed against me shall prosper like the bible says

I've gone through the waters
But the rivers didn't drown me
I've gone through the fire
But the flames didn't burn me

They say eat or be eaten, that's the circle of life
Woke up hustling, I must be doing something right
Had to earn my respect, you know it's my turn
Kept playing with fire like that shit didn't burn
Always wake up early cause the early bird get the worm
Fuck a meeting had to leave I had to adjourn
I'm doing everything I said I was gonna do
If you don't like it god bless you
I'm protected by the lord I'm not scared of nobody
Baptized Child of god this a sacred body
A king is really what I embody
I was put in this world to be somebody

I've gone through deep waters
But the rivers didn't drown me
I've gone through the fire
But the flames didn't burn me

I just want to thank God for continuing to bless me
Now I'm working on my traumas to be the best of me
Here's a few things that I learned along the way
Life's a game you just have to know how to play
Forget the past you can only change the today
Forget what people say don't let them ruin your day
Don't compare yourself to no one, your only competition is who you were yesterday
Remember time heals all wounds
The only person in charge of your happiness is you
Smile more often it looks beautiful on you
You are not your struggle
I am not my struggle

I've gone through deep waters
But the rivers didn't drown me
I've gone through the fire
But the flames didn't burn me

The pain you have dealt with can't compare to the joy that is coming
That is coming
The joy is that is coming
The pain you have dealt with can't compare to the joy that is coming
That is coming
The joy is that is coming

I've gone through deep waters
But the rivers didn't drown me
I've gone through the fire
But the flames didn't burn me
