Open Up

[Verse 1: Josiah Williams]
Yeah, shoulder shrug, I don’t really feel the need for me to open up
All the judgment is around me and I soak it up
Maybe I’m better off chilling with my problems and everything that’s unspoken of y’all won’t get it
Keep a distance for the safe route that’s why I keep my hood up and I barely let my face out
Wanting to believe that everybody just being kind but when it’s about being mine I don’t really be inclined that’s how it is
But Lord knows that I’m better off in the circle cause spiritually I’ve been feeling out of shapе
Like I can’t really tell if I’m a rappеr or an actor
I’ve been out here getting after just performing out of state
Yo, why are you leaning wait a minute take a second pump the brakes
Can’t believe the words coming out of my face
I’ma go back to where I was just listening and play it safe
Now's the best place for me to make an escape and that’s my time

[Chorus: Josiah Williams]
Yeah, yeah, yeah, and that’s my time
Yeah, yeah, yeah, deep down I know I’m better I know
Got to give up control
I’m never going to score if I run away from the goal
Lord I need your help while I’m working on my soul
Lord I need your help while I’m working on my soul, yeah I know

[Verse 2: Jered Sanders]
Yeah, I feel like it’s always something coming up and now I kind of want my faith back
Every time I get a little progress switching mindset a brother spinning a little off that race track
Man let’s state facts
Bills kinda piling on the front end and checks coming slow in the back
And feeling like my heart up in the dark room trying to let the sun in but all I hear is everything I lack
Truth is, I ain't been good as I could of been
Hogging up the last word thinking I’ma always get it right even though we in the spot I put us in
Getting on my last nerve in a dog try giving light
Been a long time coming thought I knew it all
And I’ve been off though and I ain't really putting up a fight
Become a little closer if you’re cool with the smoke on the real if your fam pray a brother get it right that’s my time

[Chorus: Josiah Williams]
Yeah, yeah, yeah, and that’s my time
Yeah, yeah, yeah, deep down I know I’m better I know
Got to give up control
I’m never going to score if I run away from the goal
Lord I need your help while I’m working on my soul
Lord I need your help while I’m working on my soul, yeah I know

[Verse 3: Armond Wakeup]
Alright, I’ve done see the cruddiest, bloodiest, scummiest
Hung with it used to run with it, man I studied it
Head nod the agnostics, I relate to the atheists
Emotions are important but they don’t lord the state I'm in
I’ve been young now I’m aging, but never have I ever seen the righteous forsaken, He’s ageless
Why would I be the need he couldn’t meet?
How am I the provision He couldn’t be?
I can tell you "run to the altar & holler 'Jesus!'" but you give your situation power based on how you see it and I seen't it
My body spirit I done synced it every season I learn how to seize it now I'm seasoned
We tend to feel away cause we feel away
The secret is contentment without always getting closure
I've learn not to be a slave till now cause everything that ever overwhelmed me is over

[Outro: Armond Wakeup]
My god, that's my time
What up JD, what up Jered
That's my time
Thank you all for listening
