[Verse 1: Glenn Lumanta]
I'm not perfect, I never have been
Not quite sure what it even needs
Sometimes I lose my faith in Him, yeah
But I'm comforted in knowing that even though I'm sinful, the Lord knows in advance
That I'm trying to do better and no, it ain't easy
I won't waste my chance, yeah
[Verse 2: NAK]
Exponential increments, we elevate the vision
With precision and the rhythm instrumental to the lyricist
Energy is filling from the cellar to the ceiling
Turn you into Hellen Keller 'cause the way that you be feeling it (Ha, ha)
Illustrate love with every color and deliver it
To every single kingdom and every one of its villages (One)
I'm in the business of appraising your significance
Administer provisions for the sick and the afflicted
Rhyming for your wisdom; time is in submission
It's a critical decision for a spiritual revision (Speech, speech)
Unity in faith is the basis of the mission
We be bridging up the distance of the spiritual divisions
Sin is like cancer, put it in remission
And cutting the cell division, ain't bluffing you come and get it (Bluff)
I'm like a chemist and combining basic elements
Of faith, hope, love for every neighbor, every relative
Every tongue, every knee, waiting on the heavens
But until the day comes, art makes it all relevant (True)
Check, I got a job to do, I demolish obstacles that block ya view
Like a doctor, now open your opticals, conquer impossible with the God in you
And there's one in two ways, but you gotta choose
So you better pick up 'cause He's calling you (Collect your mantra)
[Chorus: Glenn Lumanta, NAK]
Open up your eyes and let it lead the way (Open up y'all, open up y'all, open up yeah)
Find the silver lining each and every time you pray
Open up your eyes and let him lead the way
You'll find the silver lining each and every time you pray
The ones who strayed into the dark
Lost alone with heavy hearts
Should know there's always home for those who seek (Woo)
Those who seek, (Yeah) yeah, hmm
[Verse 3: NAK]
(Check) The lesson is to lessen the complexity indefinitely
Insecurity is steady wrecking me in seconds for me (Uh-huh)
Hollywood is telling me I ain't nothing special
Especially the fact that I'm not physically pleasant
See my stature lacking density, I need an acne remedy
And if I want to rap, I need tats and a felony
Every blog post either makes me feel cuddly
Or points out the fact that I'm just real ugly (Ew)
I want to tell you this love is superficial
But I'm hypocritical 'cause even I'm feeling miserable
But what would happen if we loved each other?
What would happen if we dropped it and hugged each other?
Despite our dirt and all our hurts
What would happen if we knew the truth about our worth?
Is it misunderstanding or grand deception?
Let's start understanding and stand, my brethren (One more time y'all)
[Chorus: Glenn Lumanta, NAK]
Open up your eyes (You better open) and let it lead the way (And let it lead) (Oh, let it lead, yeah) (Lead the way y'all, everybody now)
Find the silver lining each and every time you pray (Oh-oh, very time you pray, yeah, huh)
The ones who strayed into the dark
Lost alone with heavy hearts
(You should know this, yeah) Should know there's always home for (You should know, don't act like you don't know) those who seek
Those who seek, yeah, (Yeah) hmm
Whaddup, NAK, Glenn Lumanta, Evan Awake, haha
Y'all I'm just gonna let the beat break a little bit
And we out
And we out
Peace
