[Verse 1]
Portrait painter, I bring colours to your iris
I said it on Many Colours then I digressed
A lot of folks wouldn’t like it when I write this
But you really can’t expect me to leave the blind sightless
We were made to reflect His highness
Instead we reject His light
Yet I bet
If we check behind us
He’s set to take us higher like we’re learning to fly jets
Right? Yes
I just
Bring the heat from the kitchen and
Give it to the people who really need to listen and
Get em filled till they see what they living in
Make em understand that they can’t be indifferent
Yo
Take a stand, make a difference
Everybody sounding the same, it’s so sickening
Ears itching, skins thickening
But all I wanna do is spit truth for your benefit
[Hook]
I know most don’t mind if
They could go on living oh so mindless
But it’s high time we redefine this
Mindset
I must
Open up your iris
[Verse 2]
I hope you open your eyes
If you don’t know where to look, then don’t be surprised
You been fooled by crooks and you don’t realize
Iris
The hook that you took in was only a lie
Chai
Why? I’m sick and tired of being lied to!
They say “You gay so God mustn’t like you”
They say “You better pay your tithe and your offering to my ministry
Or the enemy’s gonna strike you!”
Unlike you, I been looking at the light book
Bring nonsense to my doorstep, I fight you
I can’t chill with this darkness, I light you
Can’t be tied down with these lies now, I find Truth!
You say "Grace", they say "Should we keep sinning?"
You know what? Just upgrade your vision
’Cause if you could possibly earn it, you still wouldn’t
So you better fall back if you preaching legalism!
[Hook]
I know most don’t mind if
They could go on living oh so mindless
But it’s high time we redefine this
Mindset
I must
Open up your iris
