Me Against the Odds
No matter how many times I wanna run
A marathon I'm keeping pace
The status quo keeps saying I'm late
Don't got my dream job, a house, a break
All of this hustling giving me strength
It's a matter of time, and a matter of grace
A matter of life, needing some space
Forget about critics, they are all insane
I'm making major decisions
Altering my destiny, bring in the weights
Burden after burden, I'm not even phrased
Awarded a Gumby back in the day
It used to be multi-positions
Rubber band to stretch with my resistance
Now it's about multi-employer
Wanting my soul and shooting my commitment
It's me against the odds
I know who's gonna help me overcome it
It's me against the odds
His way or my way, all or nothing
It's me against the odds
Through His grace, I'ma keep running
It's me against the odds
There is the line, I'ma go run it
What about your first love?
Oh God, oh yeah, He Reigns
This is not what I imagined
A perfect canvas with a bunch these stains
Yeah, He paid for my sins, He paid with His blood
He's still a part of my drama and scripts
He's the director, action, cut
Yeah, it sucks that life is demanding
I gotta fight back to keep it legit
Not what expected as a kid
This calling keeps calling, it is deep within
It never left me, it never did
My love for Christ, it is legit
I put my words into actions
Lips service ain't what it is
It's me against the odds
I know who's gonna help me overcome it
It's me against the odds
His way or my way, all or nothing
It's me against the odds
Through His grace, I'ma keep running
It's me against the odds
There is the line, I'ma go run it
It's me against the odds
I know who's gonna help me overcome it
It's me against the odds
His way or my way, all or nothing
It's me against the odds
Through His grace, I'ma keep running
It's me against the odds
There is the line, I'ma go run it
This dream keeps coming after me
Yeah, it's deep in my soul
No matter how much I try to run
It just keeps chasing after me more
I cannot run, I cannot hide
This desire is fire, I am the coal
I cannot lie, it ain't the vibe
I am alive, don't want my heart cold
Tug of war, but who's winning?
My flesh or my spirit?
Day after day I look different
It's not a moment but submission
Couldn't be here without my role models
He saved me, I wanted to be saved
You think I enjoy being enslaved
He's the one who breaks every single chain
It may look different than the traditional
Breaking barriers irresistible
Through my actions is through spiritual
When intercession becomes physical
I'm living proof, you don't need a clue
When my light shines to brighten the view
In the meantime, I'll go through dark places
The shine hope straight at you
It's me against the odds
I know who's gonna help me overcome it
It's me against the odds
His way or my way, all or nothing
It's me against the odds
Through His grace, I'ma keep running
It's me against the odds
There is the line, I'ma go run it
It's me against the odds
I know who's gonna help me overcome it
It's me against the odds
His way or my way, all or nothing
It's me against the odds
Through His grace, I'ma keep running
It's me against the odds
There is the line, I'ma go run it
A marathon I'm keeping pace
The status quo keeps saying I'm late
Don't got my dream job, a house, a break
All of this hustling giving me strength
It's a matter of time, and a matter of grace
A matter of life, needing some space
