age ten I began to understand
that throughout life there would be no end to strugglin'
but then again what can you comprehend
with no one to trust or on whom I could depend
but here I am now stand an adult
I gotta be responsible and it is my fault
for my present situation
even though I wasn't taught on how to handle what I'm facin'
I'm gonna make it happen
bump procrastination today is now so now's become my destination
waitin' on the voice of God for where to go and
I'll put my hope in you I'll say to no man
Chorus:
rest easy easy I say I say whom shall I fear
are you too good for this
what makes you the better man
one moment as the other man would change that whatever man mentality
let's see all sides of reality so what's your take on normality
cuz I don't see what you see and you don't see as I do
what might be the norm for me is abnormal to you
so I won't front to know all because only God does
but I do know where I've been what I've seen and who I was
and who I am now and on the path that I'm headed
with so much to be proud of but yet so much I've regretted
but yet n' still yahweh you fulfill where I lack
put me on the right track and tell me never look back
long awaited and much anticipated
is the day when I can look back and thank the good Lord that I made it
but then I think to myself what is really makin' it
what's my level of success and who's the one ratin' it
see I don't want to live life just waitin' to go
nah I want to live well excel and grow I'm sayin' though
I want to live life to the fullest while some wait and vegetate I state nonsense that's foolish
see through the years I've now come to understand that no one can make it happen better for me than God can
so I'll wait on no man only You, God
I'll hide nothin cuz you can see through me fascade
so no since in frontin' I come as I am
even though the world doesn't yahweh you understand
so I'll give you all every aspect n' element happy occasions to the waste of time spent
lookin' for substance anything to fill
the void of guidance that's only found in your will for me
so willfully I give in and in return I now have a reason for livin'
