Oh hey, the way, my selectable delectable, break you

Off a twang 'cause my thang is respectable

Get in where i fit in, no secrets nothin' hidden

I check their heads bobbin' and throbbin' 'cause its

Written material, milkin' ya'll like cereal, ethereal

Messages, portrayal of my jesus christ i guess it's

Just the way i choose to use my chords to bring the

News

Instead of pain, i realize there's power in the name

Zzzt goes the lightnin'. it's cracklin' it's

Frightnin'

Much needed calling card to prevent from falling hard

Hittin' your head on pavement, you need to peep my

Wavelength

Precautious with the info, now why you livin' sinful?

Your nature's starting to swallow you

Your friends beginning to follow you

The devil's pullin' strings to demolish and abolish

You like fetus', his cohort- the roscoes and cletus'

Riot like carman with the intent of harmin'

Attacks in every area, deadly like malaria

And viruses, i can see the hurt in your iris'

Why was this turmoil aimed at me?

A curse put in reverse, i suspect aptly

Much thought is required in the question you just

Blurted

Take the script called your life, make some changes

And reword it

Take callin' with the bawlin', time is nigh to put

Asunder, scatter blunder

Fresh manna feeds the hunger.

Chorus:

Why you livin' on the chance for hopes and dreams

When you should be takin' life the way that it seems

Nothin' good will manifest, your still intent on being

Blessed

Why you livin' on a chance for hopes and dreams?

Recollections and memoirs of a pre-saved era, although

I waddled in the truth i still dipped in the devil's

Terror

Bad is bad, you could say i had my share of it

Doing nothing drastic, depending on how you stare at

It

Skipping down the road i see the signs ahead and then

Cadaver central opens once the flesh is dead

'cause it's knowda not yoda don't toy when finding

Paths, then select the narrow 'cause the broad has

Booby traps

For me to fall in and all together miss my callin'

Snares placed strategically, realms changed

Metaphysically

Fools don't know and yet they really don't know, the

Failure to receive the wisdom stumps the inner mans

Growth

It's difficult to understand if you can't fathom the

Wrath i ask you-what if the rapture sweeps past?

In the end is only when you'll feel the strength of

The seven

Sorrow goes out for opposition-armagedon is the place

Where his kingdom will cross the lost and victory goes

Unto those who took the cross

So now i take my stand, subject myself to persecution

Since i've been informed i'm not alarmed by execution

In the public

Relationship with christ none above it, i love it

I'm mesmerized beyond infatuation

To show the love of christ tightens other relations

Waitin' in his midst to catch a glimpse of his glory.

Chorus

Yo change up that beat so they can peep my direction

To blood streams legal syringes of rhyme lectures

Infectious as wounds cleanse internal like prunes

Soon callin' his name some will still see doom

You assume, 'cause you mention him as lord of your

Life

On award shows and albums everything is alright

Who you? i never knew, say you did what for me?

But you can start now, depart now, worker of iniquity

Them shout outs, got you spat out quicker than cobras

Livin' beyond reproach until your sins found you broke

Breathless you choke and gasp

In his name you asked forgiveness of your past and

Aquital for your task

Ask me? you livin' on chances with lucky odds

Got one up, still breathin' frontin' with god

But the time has come don't miss the cue, be false or

True

'cause them "freak me baby, thanks to my savior" days

Are through

Straight up, i'm tired of fakes that be claimin' in

The family

Granted, our mother's one but our fathers are know

Foes

So those who claim relations hope your life is the

Proof

Ain't no playin' with you

Spoke in love but in truth

And intents of being blessed and nothin' good is

Manifesting from your life man-you livin' on a chance

Of hopes and dreams.
