Badi get a grip... don't let em see you like this
I say i'm ashamed of mankind but i walk a thin line
So i slip, if somethings in the way yea i'm known to trip
It's just more than i can take
All eyes on me, and it's more than i can fake
But at the end of the day, man all that i can say is
My prayers to the most great
When i'm down for the count, in it too deep
When i live day to day, start to lose sleep
When i don't go to class, when i don't call fam back
How long can i do this, how long will i last
I don't know god, i don't know
If i am even worthy of your grace anymore
I'm waiting for a sign, but everything is sign
In reality the world is already mine
Chorus:
I feel it my veins
The fire, when i cry out his name
Oh my god, make my prayer
A fire to burn away all my veils
Make of my prayer a fire
Kindle in my veins a fire
My god, my adored one
My king, my desire
I know that god gave each a purpose
But we all gotta search way beneath the surface
To find it, like trying to unearth a diamond
That always appears with the most perfect timing
-so i start reading to find meaning-
And i see there is still something i am not seeing
In between the lines, in my spirit
In the music, in the very air that i'm breathing
It's the reason i feel forced to write
I recognize it inside me, that source of light
Showing me there is so much more to life
Arming me with the fire, because i got wars to fight
I think about the breakers of the dawn
And how they stood firm when the guns were drawn
On the front lines far from pawns
Kings in their own right, their the ones who i call upon
Whenever i lose faith
I read the story of my name and realize it's never too late
To believe and so shall my powers be
I believed, and he made a man out of me
Chorus:
I feel it my veins
The fire, when i cry out his name
Oh my god, make my prayer
A fire to burn away all my veils
Make of my prayer a fire
Kindle in my veins a fire
My god, my adored one
My king, my desire
Now when the swords flash, go forward
When the shafts fly, press onward
Now when the swords flash, go forward
When the shafts fly, press onward
When the swords flash, go forward
When the shafts fly, press onward
When the swords flash, go forward
When the shafts fly, press onward
