[Chorus: Christon Gray]
I took the narrow road, I'm not sorry
I took the narrow road, I'm not sorry
Can't do this on my own, I know I'm not alone
Tryna hold me back, you gon' need an army
I keep on lookin' out my window
I keep on lookin' out my window
I see the world going everywhere the wind blows
Not me 'cause I know what I stand for
[Verse 1: Dee-1]
Yeah
Man, I've been suffering 'cause of my fate
Seem like it's scaring some people away
They be in love with the money I make
But knowing I'm Christian make 'em hesitate
They respect me and salute it for sure
They don't want no real parts of it, though
They ain't really tryna ride for the cause
They just rather me to buy 'em some cars
Fish out of water, I never fit in
We were put here to be fishers of men
Christian on me, you ain't never gon' sin
But live for the world, you ain't never gon' win
Sometimes I think to myself late at night
I wish more people were helpin' me fight
But if we ain't on the same mission in life
You can't run my business, it ain't gon' be right
People say if my fate wasn't so bold
It'd be much easier for me to blow
But it's too much a part of me to hide
Won't be like Peter, Christ, I won't deny
If it's for God that I suffered, that's cool (That's cool)
Persecution and loneliness too (Too)
'Cause during my weakest times
There's room for Christ to shine
[Chorus: Christon Gray]
I took the narrow road, I'm not sorry
I took the narrow road, I'm not sorry
Can't do this on my own, I know I'm not alone
Tryna hold me back, you gon' need an army
I keep on lookin' out my window
I keep on lookin' out my window
I see the girl going everywhere the wind blows
Not me 'cause I know what I stand for
[Verse 2: Dee-1]
The love of my life don't love that I fight
Against my flesh to try to live right
She just want for me to call her at night
Link up with her and give her, okay
Deep in my heart, I wish she was the one
Every time that we link up we have fun
But when I try to talk real with my baby
She change the subject and get it rotated
Yeah, we got chemistry, I can't deny it
But I don't know if I'm her type of guy
She think I'm holdin' her back from living
I'm tryna help her be purpose-driven
If you ask her about God, she know
If I say go to church, then she'll go
But she ain't spiritually tryin' to grow
She more concerned with trying to blow
She need attention 'cause she want the fame
She went on Instagram and peeped the game
Take off her clothes, her body exposed
Her following grows, then she can get chose
I do not judge cause I understand It
Fans the most powerful drug on the planet
So it didn't work out with my bae
'Cause she wanted me to lose my faith
[Pre-Chorus: Christon Gray]
If you would've said I gotta change my ways
If you would've said I gotta give up my faith
Then I'd have to say that I don't wanna stay, nah
I think it's okay if you walk away
[Chorus: Christon Gray]
I keep on lookin' out my window
I keep on lookin' out my window
While everybody going everywhere the wind blows
Not me, 'cause I know what I stand for
I took the narrow road, I'm not sorry
I took the narrow road and I'm not sorry
Can't do this on my own, I know I'm not alone
You got my back, who could ever harm me?
