[Part I: Mind Games]
Hook
He playing mind games/
It's only mind games/
(Even when i do good evil ain't too far)
He'll say or do bout anything to make your mind change/
Verse
Even when i do good, evil ain't too far/
People think I'm high jumpin', i keep raisin' the bar/
I was.... falling behind, foot racin' a car/
I can't believe that we made it this far....Now here we are/
Cause my trials could've taken me out at first base/
Drowned somebody with less Faith/
Man I'm lucky we have grace.... and favor/
And I'm too excited that my holy ghostwriter is the savior/
Yea.......that's the devils pet peeve/
Tricks up his sleeve, his mission is to deceive/
He can't stand that ya boy planted like a tree/
Watching out for the snakes.... look what happened to eve/
Lol....Yea cause all she wanted was a taste/
But she ain't know it was gonna change our fates/
I'm just praying that my words make the whole world great/
I'm just hoping you can all relate/
So say your grace cause/
The devil plotting he just wants you to fail/
.....But the bible told me i shall be the head not the tail/
And it's hard enough to be a Black American male/
I prevailed what me selling drugs, dead or in jail.....
Man i swear
(Hook)
Verse
Bruh... i swear the devil don't play fair/
Man he really thought he had me this time/
He'll make you think really you have problems that ain't there/
You don't have anymore room in this mind/
Or this heart, asking God renew them both/
Stressing out until i took a different approach/
But it's funny cause some people always doing the most/
This word I'm gonna spread it like its butter and toast/
I'm bout to boast....cause God brought me out them trenches/
The devil made you do it, better check your defenses/
I use to be a player, now I'm riding the benches/
I have Goals, feel like its 4th down and inches/
A lot of things ...people do it don't phase me/
Lost so many people should've of been crazy/
Breaking Every Chain..... no more enslavement/
Cause my only God above saved me/
Amazing
[Part II: Recognize]
...Tryna stay off the devil's guest list/
But the world we live in can be infectous/
But God know my heart, he's knows it's bigger than texas/
...If you're thinking that you clearly missed the message/
Even friends tried to knock me off my pivot/
But it's more than just saying it, Man, it's how you use your life and live it/
Everyday you gone get pressured to the limit/
But the bible say sin not (sin not)...even if you are livid/
I'ma born sinner, tryna turn a new leaf/
Killing all my old ways, watchin backstabbers like the O'Jay's/
Lookin' at this planet as it rotates/
I was taught young....before I cross the street to look both ways/
Everything happens for a reason/
Every mans' gonna be judged for the life that he's leading/
Only God can tell me if i succeeded /
I just wanna do good in this earth, til the day I have to leave it yea..../
(Verse)
You only live once, life is not a movie/
Man I had to make a change, I had to bust a uie/
Head another way, ...cause where I was going was wrong/
Found myself in situations that I didn't belong/
I've been slippin' too long.. some tests I had to make up/
Tryna have more women than Jacob, I had to wake up/
Maybe that's the reason behind all of my break ups/
I'm forgiven, and covered in the blood like it's make up/
I try to keep my distance from the fakers/
I wanna live greater, even if that's means to take a paycut/
The root of all evil is the paper/
Cause i would rather be without money, than to be without the maker/
Im gonna speak truth with every breath inside/
...It'll all workout for the the good, like it's exercise/
What i did wrong I wanna rectify/
.....If anybody doesn't reconize, then you're not reconized/
