Captivity of Comparison

This Christian Hip-Hop politics so competitive
And you would figure we love each other like relatives
"And I been doing this longer, I need more benefit"
Feel you don't include 'em, that's when they start acting sensitive
And yeah I get it, all of us should feel supported
But the glory don't belong to us so why we fighting for it?
Yeah, captivity of comparison
Uh, can literally be embarrassing
When you know who you are with Jesus though
You appreciate other leaders though
Truth Teller, forrealer man, lemme feed your soul
All of us, we need to grow
There's something that you need to know

I don't do this for the money, houses, cars or fame
But I do it just to lift your name higher and higher
I don't do this for promotion, recognition or gain
But I do it just to lift your name higher and higher

I said you pay to get promotion, you pay to get exposure
If you focus more on growing, you'll let go of all that boasting
You come to stir emotions, I come to stir the spirit
Commitment and devotion on the outside of appearance
You desire sold out shows with crowds that clap on weekends
But I desire altar calls with broken hearts that seek Him
See you just came to entertain, I just came to worship
I lead by example, praying one day you find purpose
These CD sells don't make me
That Amazon can't save me
That Facebook like can't change my life
The love of God remade me
So don't ask about my booking info, ask about God's glory
Faithful and so fruitful, that's my Kingdom Muzic story, yuh
Without the music, I'mma always be a man of God
Without the music, I'm gon' always lift my hands to God
Forget the music, man I choose right here to stand with God
That's just the plan of God
I follow the commands of God, yuh

I don't do this for the money, houses, cars or fame
But I do it just to lift your name higher and higher
I don't do this for promotion, recognition or gain
But I do it just to lift your name higher and higher

When the lights faded black (lights faded black)
And the crowds gone home (crowds gone home)
Let my life be to you, Lord
The most pleasing song
When the lights faded black (lights faded black)
And the crowds gone home (crowds gone home)
Let my life be to you, Lord (oh)
The most pleasing song (yeah)
The most pleasing song (most pleasing song)
Yeah

Aye, recycle these wack rappers with plastic and with paper
A bag full of bad habits, your attitude so hateful
I laugh at your black magic, devil do me no favor
I live for the risen King, I know His power is greater, yuh
You can't entice me with no riddle or no metaphor
And you ain't saying something no one else ain't said before
Listen, captivity of comparison
Uh, it can be a little embarrassing
When you know who you are with Jesus though
You appreciate other leaders though
Truth Teller, forrealer man, lemme feed your soul
All of us, we need to grow
There's something that you need to

Cuz when the lights faded black (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
And the crowds gone home (crowds gone home)
Let my life be to You (Lord)
The most pleasing song
My lights faded black (Oh, yeah)
And the crowds gone home (gone home)
Let my life be to You, Jesus (Jesus)
A pleasing song
