Teeter Totter

[Verse 1]
The Lord touched my lips and put His words in my mouth
And like lukewarm saints, these words I'm gonna spit em out
I have no worries because they call my Lord Jehovah Jireh
And in case you don't know that means He's my Provider
Anything according to His will He'll equip me with
Money, cars, beats, rhymes, all for His benefit
I hide His words in my heart so that I'll remember it
So if I get famous then my will I'll surrender it
My aim is not to flame the fame
I fan the flame and daily maintain the name
That reigns over every name, so I refrain the gain
Of selfish pleasures, He came for pain
Died on the cross so that I'll never be the same
Once I confess my sins and become born again
Most Christians don't last that long, but I believe in His word
That's why my stability is strong

[Hook]
They go back and forth
Back and forth
Up and down
Up and down
Like teeter totters

[Verse 2]
Yo! It's only in His word that I'm stable
Most Christians are unstable like three-legged tables
I must admit, discipline isn't easy
I know I make it look simple but you gots to believe me
Your boy catches the bus to shows, waiting in the cold
Feeling like an eskimo
Holy pockets but I ain't heading to the Check n Go
Stressed out my folk, and I be the first to let you know
Can't be American Idol, so my clay (Clay) be aching (Aiken)
But I trust in the Potter who molds me, there's no mistaking
But sometimes I feel like Habukkak
The wicked compasses the righteous is how that looks
They seem not to reap what they sow and
It seems like you won't pay what you owe but
I trust in You regardless of how things look
Cause I believe in every word in that holy book

[Verse 3]
The flesh is never satisfied
In His word I'm stable
The word has power
In Him I'm enabled
To mortify sin and subjugate any desire
Esteeming itself higher than my Lord's empire
The work God gave me doesn't ensure my stability
The fear of the Lord does
I dwell in His facility
Without obedience I could not facilitate ministry
And I would be worse then carnal rappers in the industry
Many don't seek His kingdom first
And that's why many in the kingdom thirst
Because the effects of sin are only temporary
I've tried it before and found out
Sin ain't meant to carry me
Through hard times I cast my cares on Jesus
We have a partnership
God really needs us
But we gotta put Him first
And not our rap ministries
If we put Him first then we'll become
Everything we're meant to be
