Heart First (Remix)

Verse 1

I feel like my brains trapped as the rain smacks the outside of my window

My heart makes tracks, my veins' claps- my instrumentals

I'm writing over silent tempos as the violent wind blows

My sigh crescendos-why do we dive for minnows?

Wallowing in the shallow end, following hollow trends

Full throttle for bravos, bottles, models and lotto wins

My goggle's lens sees humanity facing calamity

Chasing vanity laced with profanity-straight insanity

I state this candidly- to heal's the goal in my suggestion

Saying Christ is the answer, but you still don't know the question

R&B cats on the radio mistake lust for love

I wanna be thrust above to touch the Dove

To escape this sinful world ransacked by vipers

Anthrax and snipers, Rikers jam-packed with lifers

When Christ comes His majesty will infiltrate this plane

He'll disintegrate the pain when He vindicates His name

so…

Verse 2

shai linne the Soli Deo Gloria fella

Urban territory dweller, theological storyteller

Trying to search the mysteries of the Divine is real deep

It's like waking up just to find you still sleep

We thrill seek- Life is precious, many take it for granted

Paper demanded by lost souls, vacant abandoned

Naked and stranded-waiting for answers yet hating commandments

My faith was handed to me by my Savior who made the planet

Taking a stand in Philadel- trying to spill it well

On the real I tell truth, nobody will chill in hell

It's weeping and gnashing, reaching and grasping forever

But seeking and asking will keep you from crashing, however

The finite mind can't comprehend the Lord's love

Came so far to touch us-it ain't like He wore gloves

Dove heart first to rescue us from the pit we was in

Living in sin-Omnipotent King, yet Intimate Friend

that's why…

Verse 3

'Cause I refuse to use man's wisdom

I'm accused of delusional fanaticism but its musical evangelism

My lyrics be the tracks and the tracks be the paper

The Spirit's got my back so in fact this can save ya

From perverts and tricks and murderous kids and

It's my earnest conviction, you're in the furnace of affliction

Life has come to be a circus-Wonder what defeats your purpose

'Cause the one who seeks to hurt us lurks just underneath the surface

Like D'Angelo said, "They want a slice of the devil's pie"

I see the vice in a rebel's eye

In my city, the strife level's high; the poor moan, the scorned roam

Torn homes make residential areas look like war zones

Christ was broken and murdered so that those who heard and converted

Won't be inserted inside the smoking furnace

Eternal Flame Thrower on some "Game's over"

That's why we praise Jehovah in these last days of Noah

The finite mind can't comprehend the Lord's love

Came so far down to touch us it ain't like He wore gloves

Dove heart first to rescue us from the pit we was in

Living in sin-Omnipotent King, yet Intimate Friend

that's why…

Hook:

We worship fervently; All praise to Christ-

We'll be worshipping for eternity
