Own It, Too

[Intro: Armond Wakeup]
It's crazy how we be like
We see the whole picture, when it comes to others
And we only see what we wanna see when it comes to ourselves

[Verse 1: Armond Wakeup]
You ever seen someone depressed after their wedding?
Knowing full well God done sent a blessing
But they didn’t get to vet all the stress that came with it
Or they can’t see it’s a gift cause of what remains in it
Man listen
This world’s gone crazy
I need to disconnect
I wanna savе my people
But don’t wanna risk the strеss
I be wanting to speak
My thoughts are counter culture
Say they want diversity
But restrict what I’m allowed to offer
Can I be loud and prosper
If I’m not the status quo?
I want truth to reign supreme
They want facts controlled
They worship celebrities
I worship the heavenlies
They tell you to live your truth
I say go to therapy
Tired of seeing the last moments of these rappers lives
Friends and family mourn
Labels advertise
Life’s an odyssey
Honesty ain’t out of reach
Stop scrolling mindlessly
Let’s redefine some things

[Chorus: Priest]
Yeah
I know that they gon' feel it
It’s fake but they pretend to be the realest
Know we seeing through it
In the midst, the Lord is speaking through it
Glass houses, we been peeking through it
I’m just praying that we own it
Own it
I’m just praying that we own it
Own it
It’s really time for us to own it
Own it
Really hoping that we own it
Own it

[Verse 2: Priest]
I feel like I’m tryna breathe when I’m smothered
I feel like there’s a part of me that’s honestly, not as good as my brothers
I feel like a detective that’s undercover
My biggest fear is becoming a throw away after preaching to others
Or getting took like a sucker
I realize I got issues
The damage remaining from being misused
It’s you, is what I say
When I’m crying, pass me a tissue
Been paranoid, praying, carrying pistols
It’s official, I’m just need a break
I’ve been a pillar, torch bearer for the optimistic
Carrying the banner, spirit scanner, trying not to miss it
Ritualistic, hiding from the truth, and choosing to ignore it
Been complicit, in some things I hate, and made excuses for it
Helpful, horrid, sordid, been ignored, rewarded
Pain I bore it, took it on the chin, managed to grin, been in something abhorrent
Then confessed my sin, and let the Father wash me in the torrent
Of His Love, the blood will never lose its power, and for sure it’s
What I like

[Chorus: Priest]
I know that they gon' feel it
It’s fake but they pretend to be the realest
Know we seeing through it
In the midst, the Lord is speaking through it
Glass houses , we been peeking through it
I’m just praying that we own it
Own it
I’m just praying that we own it
Own it
It’s really time for us to own it
Own it
Really hoping that we own it
Own it
