The Answer

Growing up I seen the world chase after many things.
Wrapped up in the money and the lies that it brings.
Throw away their family for selfish ambition.
All because the paper that they chase became religion.
They treat money like a God, but it's really not the way.
More money, more problems, that's what Biggie had to say
I lay it plain, God is the answer to your struggle.
Choose to follow Him and find the answer to your troubles.
A new day's coming when you can stop running.
When kids don't have to steal just so they can eat something.
Where daddies don't leave and governments don't lie.
And the world bows down to lift your name up high.
He is the answer.
He is the answer.
The only reason, I'm holding on.
To the answer, so Lord I surrender.
Cos you are the reason I'm standing strong, I know.
I couldn't breathe without ya, (I know).
I couldn't see without ya, (I know).
What would I be without ya.
I'm standing strong I know.
When you came it was like a star to the sky.
Light of the world as you sparked into life, majestic.
You listen to the brok-est of cries, you talk about truth and you silenced the lies.
I guess there was nobody quite like you.
God you're my strength and you pulled me through.
You're the hope to the masses, your story is classic, you took many lashes, for me it was drastic.
The holes in your hands, to the scars on your back, from the bruises and cuts, from the whips that were cracked.
You are good, you are love, to the world you were hope.
If you're caught up in the struggle let's go.
I'm running round feeling lonely, the weight of the world is on me.
I can see the walls are closing, it's cold and the rain is pouring.
