Choose God

[Intro]
Yeah

[Chorus]
Nigga, my presence's a gift like Christmas time
I rap for my niggas doin' time, who don't see day-to-day
Locked in a cage watchin' time fade away
Decisions, they say
You're one decision away from your highest or your lowest
Somethin' you can choose
Somethin' you can choose (Choose God, Choose)
(Yeah, choose God)

[Verse 1]
Spend time with the family, don't put your, head in a noose
I had to pray and ask God to remove my guilt from survivin' of course
'Cause when I look around, I see so many people who ain't made it out
Can barely get through the night, they gotta thug it out
And you wonder why they got so much pain in their eyes when you go and see 'em now (See 'em now)
But I know there's hope, better days comin'
Hard to see it when your tummy's rumblin'
Feel like your life crumblin'
And the devil on some bitch shit in your ear mumblin'
But God's voice is clear and it overshines (And it overshines)
The light always wins and every race is sublime
Where did wisdom come from?
What did you do with your time?
Guess only time will tell
I spent mine lookin' inward, like an engineer how I master myself
I let go, I let these dreams manifest themselves
If they don't let me in I'll pick the lock then kick it down
Look what I found
The king's crown
Don't ask me how I do it my nigga, I'd rather show you how

[Verse 2]
I was meditatin' the other day
So high and my spirit felt like I was on a different plane
And then I noticed somethin' in my spirit said, "Choose God"
Then I noticed my mother was losin' direction
Didn't know which way to go
Not even on the track, losin' control
And I had her on the phone
And I thought to myself
What's the realest thing I could do right now?
I mean, I'm not God
So, there's only one thing I could do right now
Repeat after me

[Break]
I come before you in the wonderful name of our Lord and saviour Jesus Christ
(I come before you in the wonderful name of our Lord and saviour Jesus Christ)
Can you wash me clean? (Can you wash me clean?)
Can you purify me? (Can you purify me?)
No weapon formed against me shall prosper
Every day and night, I know there's light

[Outro]
And that's what I told her
We was born in the winter
It couldn't get no colder
For people like us
But still in God we trust, yeah
'Cause when you at the bottom, the only place you can go is up (Up)
So I told my mama
Wipe your eyes
The sun will rise
Your son will fly
So the Eagle flies
I saw the skies, I see it all
And still I ball, I never fall
In God I trust (In God I trust), yeah
Yeah, choose God
