Notice Me

You were real gone, real lost
Ain't wanna die cause your mission was real strong
Ain't wanna live your life for real son
Ain't wanna trust your God with De'Shaun
Back in year one, you remember the lunch
In line looking at everybody get what they want
While you, you looked around at all the dudes in the room
And said "they can do everything I just can't do"
That was the well that you were left in to die
And from then, your faith in me was all that kept you alive
Your confidence in me was stronger than fear
So your depression wasn't brought to your ears
And I protected you and held you from pain
While the world was acting like it was an everyday thing
My love surpasses everything you have within you
So stop letting Satan get to you, just thank me for strength

Now you notice me, now you turn around
I'm here, I'm here
Now you notice me, now you turn around
Do you hear me, can you see me
My daughter, are you ready for me

That was the time but you had to crawl out
It was necessary for you, don't you speak it without
Believing you're free in your heart and your mind is pure
Cause this ain't a song, it's a declaration of war
Moment this record is made, you're on my front lines
Enemy will not stop, but relax you're mine
You might fail, might fall, might hit hard times
But you will always come back to your father to cry
You won't just be a light, De'Shaun, you will ignite like a fire
You won't just sing a mighty song, you will raise arms and inspire
You asked to be a vessel, son, this is your chance
Believe your free in your heart and go free my words from your hands

God you loved me, when nobody ever loved me
God you knew me, when nobody cared to know me
God you held me, when there was no one to hold me
You showed me, you showed me, you showed me your love
God you loved me, when nobody ever loved me
God you knew me, when nobody cared to know me
God you held me, when there was no one to hold me
You showed me, you showed me, you showed me your love
Now you notice me
