"(in)VISIBLE" Man

What's up, my G
To clarify, God is my only G, ya'heard
Isaiah 45:21, look it up, get familiar
I can hear him up there now, like

He just wanna shine today
Only for you, Father
Yeah, yeah
My young boy on his grind again
All for your glory, Lord, Yah

Was given a gift and given a plan
To give 'em a lift and give Him a hand
I give 'em a bit, I give 'em a chance
But they wanna quit, say that they can't
I give it to God, I stick to the path
But they wanna mock, and they wanna laugh
Air quotes, air quotes, air quotes
Invisible man

How could you not see it ending
How could I stop to defend 'em
When they get highly offended
Y'all need to lower the fences
The Lord covered all your offenses
The Blood of the Lamb
Spilled out for all of our messes
Drop the aggression
I've been as guilty as you
Of blocking my blessings then wanting to end it
And now in the midst of the storm
I admit that I was wrong
I should've known all along
There's more to life
Than getting off, or getting on
The journey is long
The faith that I have, I put it in song
I sing it to you, in hopes of a change
In hopes of it bringing you home
Ain't meant to do it alone

And I'm here for you, just like the Lord is
I had to put down the phone
To answer his calling
Show God I was all in (I'm all in)
He the provider, they the dividers
Now I'm the reuniter
Inviting you all in
To the light you avoidin'
I just wanna shine for you

He just wanna shine today
Yeah
All for your glory, Lord
My young boy on his grind today
Solely for you, Father
Yeah

Gave me the place and gave me the time
Gave me His grace and gave me His life
Gave me the space and gave me the sight
Gave me the bait, and gave me the line
I'm reeling them in, one at a time
I'm reeling them in, one at a time
The Lord on the way, He's giving the signs
Open your eyes, don't push it aside

Took me a while like a slow-stepper
Beloved, this warmth come in all weather
Bro, only Ayo, I know
Is still the Alpha and Omega
I wasn't proud, was a home wrecker
But can be proud, I got no record
Even though I was in bad crowds
Hanging with demons and coke sellers
I took to the darkness
Didn't follow the beat of my own drum
But the beat of the heartless
That was nothing to dance to
Had to grind, but I'm with Jesus regardless

That's God's grace
Ain't let the devil take my faith
Can't let another choose my fate
Had to decide to take my place
In the kingdom of God

Without Him, I wouldn't have gotten this far
I wouldn't have got in this booth
To give 'em the truth
And deliver the message for Yah
Ain't nobody messing with y'all
I was a wreck, I was off
List full of so many goals
And I wasn't checking them off

Map full of so many roads
There's no way I wouldn't get lost
Jesus, take the wheel
You gave me the drive
I did You no favors still
How could I be in Your favor still
All the while knowing You know
That I'd never take his deal
And I'd never say I'ma change
If I ain't gon' change for real
Embraced Your will
To show 'em Your grace was real

And that You are great for real
I stay in my Bible now
Ain't no more hiding out
Ain't no more wiling out
The time is now
Ain't no more whining now
I'm crying out
Ain't no more dying down

Open the gate, I'm rising now
I'm on Your horizon now
Time to surprise 'em now
As I pour out the spirit You gave me

Upon every spirit that play me
Give out the money they pay me
And I don't need people to praise me
I just want people to praise Him
And thank You for coming to save me
If he's an invisible man
Your blindness don't cease to amaze me

He just wanna shine today
All for Your glory
Only for You
My young boy on his grind today
All for your glory, Lord

Yeah

Never confuse what you choose not to see
For what's not there, beloveds
He's always there
He's always been, He will always be
Abba
He ain't no invisible man
