Matt 7:23

[Verse 1]
Yeah
Runnin in place, stuck in my ways
And I don't wanna change nothing
Boy if I wanted opinions then I would have asked
Someone different to say something
What gives you the right to offer your advice
Of tellin me how to go about life?
I'ma get right how I want on my own terms
And I promise I'll sleep good at night
So get out of my face
Get out of my face
I ain't gon say it again
What if I said that I don't feel the same in a church
As I do when I'm out with my friends?
I drank that living water and read revelation
Just so I could see the story end
I ate that bread of life and told my generation bout it
Why am I still not content
Why am I not content?
I just wanna be happy
Is that so much to ask for?
To be honest this walk is not what was sold to me
This is not what I asked for
I'm questioning everything
I'm asking if paradise genuine
And if it is why don't you show me mine?
Cause I've just been trapped in my mind
And I feel like I'm dead
I'm just frustrated with the state of the world
And the state of my mind as I navigate through it
I prayed and I listened
I know what's expected of me but I don't wanna do it
Yeah I know I'm stubborn
Yeah I know I'm hard headed
I've been hard hearted for a long time
I'm just so tired and my faith is under pressure
I'm just tryin' to figure out mine, ah yeah

[Chorus]
I've been slippin' back into my old ways, yeah
I'm terrified You'll say that You don't know me, yeah
But I don't wanna handle that right now now
I don't wanna handle that right now now
Don't love You the same way that You love me
I don't love You the same way that You love me
But I don't wanna handle that right now now
I don't wanna handle that right now now

[Verse 2]
What do I got to lose?
I'm miserable everyday anyway
There really ain't much to look forward to
I got distractions that help me out day to day
Music is one of em
Why do you think that I work so hard?
Why do you think that I work a job
Then get off, go work another job
Just cause I like it? Boy you can't be serious
Tell me I'm curious
Why is it every time I take a step forward I take more back?
I've been under the gun for so long
That when something goes wrong
Feel like I can't afford that
All these contents under pressure got me feeling lesser
Than I know what my potential is
When I don't check my mental status
I get all dramatic, down depressive manic
Old destructive habits yeah
I've been down, I've been real sick ayy
Help me up, pick me up quick ayy
Clean me up, make me Your own, ayy
Take me back, I know I'm wrong, ayy
I need Your grace, I need Your grace
Cause You know that I've been backsliding right now uh
I just wanna know the real You
In spite of all the times that I act defiant
I get so reliant on, what I know
That I don't leave room for faith
So I don't grow into what I could be
When I should be moving on from milk to meat
And concrete in the foundation that I build from
And I don't have that much left to move on
So much weight I got to stay strong
But the motive of my heart just wanna do wrong
And I'm all like

[Chorus]
I've been slippin' back into my old ways, yeah
I'm terrified You'll say that You don't know me, yeah
But I don't wanna handle that right now now
I don't wanna handle that right now now
Don't love you the same way that you love me
I don't love you the same way that you love me
But I don't wanna handle that right now now
I don't wanna handle that right now now
