It's Complicated

The spiritual me against my flesh
Man I'm so sick of this mess
They never, ever seem to agree
With each other and neither will settle for less
Whenever I'm stressed
And not feelin' blessed
Pressed, depressed, happiness repossessed
Here you come in my mind to suggest
For me to put on a bullet proof vest
Go postal, double clip deep in their chest
Unload, reload now you failed the test
If I continue your foolish requests
I'll die by the sword or be sentenced to death
To kill my emotions and former regrets
I'd sip an Old Fashioned and try to forget
The lives that changed being the man to get
Marijuana, cocaine, heroine, the X
Now you're addicted to spending your checks
Your morals are gone, but your life is on wet
Flossin' with life you end up in a test
Words with some guy led you to a slugfest
Now you're in jail what the heck you expect
Oh well, you failed, now on to the next
Your life ain't gotta be so complex
But that's what you get when you tryin' to flex
All the fame and all the glory
It's a old and famous story
Every since that first sin
The flesh in man has tried to win
Ooops upside your head like Vonage
Ain't you tired of being in bondage
You must be a nervous wreck
And I don't mean no disrespect
You need to get your life in check
Stop being a punk and fight the flesh
And get yourself back on one accord
With God's Righteousness

I'm so different, I'm so neat
Oh so peculiar, something to see
You ain't never met someone like me
You know I'm clean as I can be
When you ain't around your girl talks to me
she holds my hand and walks with me
It's almost like she's stalkin' me
but you, you keep on walking G
Right here is where you ought to be
She said she finds no faults in me
And it's true, what can I say
I love the girl in every way
I'll never, ever go away
When it comes to her man I don't play
You know the price I had to pay
I'm never gonna forget that day
I know you've never been whipped that way
To the point your flesh was ripped away
Believe me when I say it's okay
It was meant to be that way
You all just have to believe in me
Learn to start receiving me
You know your ways are not me ways
You know your thoughts are not my thoughts
When I'm on the scene the demons halt
When I catch'em going to try and salt
My game, my name is powerful
They flee to me, it happens bro
In fact they wrote a book about me
for all of those of you who seem to doubt me
Complications from within
A part of warfare, don't give in
See I'm the way, the truth, the light
Without me you have lost the fight
Cause in the end I'm going to win
So you better choose right
