Your Love - R2D

VERSE 1
Before I tried to run, before the crime I done / before I lied to mum, before the pies I slung / my life was fun, when I was young / gave my life to Christ the Messiah in '91 / saved now called and chosen, made vows in pure devotion / baptized, came out the water soaking / see that the Lord has spoken, the option is yours / knock on the door and believe that the door will open / that’s what I did, I've got to live / God You're big, You turn negative to positive / I’m a new man through Jesus / through away my old creps and put on my new sneakers / had potential, told by my school teachers / ran the race but fell after a few meters / (huh-huh) I'm out of breath / a little fame and a name, that's what I'm out to get //

VERSE 2
The kid has strayed a different way, stopped giving praise in disarray / wicked ways, disobeyed what the word of Scripture says / labelled a troublesome teen, from an early age failed by the government scheme / got scouted by a couple of teams, but they was too late, I fell in love with the green / used to bun and blaze, listening to Drum & Bass / Kool FM, Jungle days, hooligans we young and brave / truth's what I've come to say, everyday my mother prayed / just like Jonah the soldier, tried to run away / from the truth I guess, now I'm truly stressed / years later need delivering like UPS / spit raps with honesty, look it was real / did kidnaps and robberies, bookies and tills c'mon / they won’t bail me, they jailed me / in the London .. and Old Bailey //

VERSE 3
No changing, placed on probation / dough chasing, daily dro blazing / it’s the path I chose, gave my heart and soul / went from eights to Q's, Q’s to half and O's / we wrecked the town, 26 for 20 pound / it's amazing how bad news gets around / lost in a dark maze, locked in a large cage / some say that we're not in the last days / dodging the cops in the car chase, indoctrinated by the doctrine of Scarface / without God no stopping my heart’s ache / now I'm stuck between a rock and a hard place / feeling trapped again, it's either the morgue, the rehab, the mad home or going back to pen / it's neither one, Father You freed Your son / God You're big, You turn negative to positive //
