Time/Lullaby Prelude

Good morning, it's the day that I have made

And it's yours to rejoice in

By the way it's the lord here

And that sunshine, it is your gift

From me to you, it is free to you

I hope you cherish it not how most people do

So awake, sleeping beau

All night it was me dreaming in you

Breathing in you, speaking to you

I kept your blood flowing and heart beating too

In your slumber, it was me keeping you

Must've been good sleep too homie peep the drool

Now it's time to get up

Open your eyes and sit up

This morning, I hope it's me that you visit with

Cuz last night, you went to sleep so oblivious

To the day that I gave to you yester

I kept you out your tombstone

Not the pizza but the western

Let you go out, live your life, and then I brought you home

To your bed to shut your eyes

But you never said a much obliged

So last night I cried

And in your brain, you thought it was the rain

Here we are, I've given you your heart

I've given you your mind

I've given you your eyes

Open them, and see that I've given you more time

To offer me your heart

To offer me your mind

To lend me your sight

Cuz no sooner than later, I'll be sending your christ

Bad morning

I think that this day is gon' prove to be more than

More than you can handle right now

So you might as well lay it back down

Back to your unconsciousness

Cuz in that bliss problems don't exist

In that world you can turn christ off

Why the heck you think you sleep with the lights off?

Cuz darkness is where I shine

His sun is too bright so close them blinds

Screw the alarm, that's what the snooze is for

Who am I? You can call me lucifer

But my friends call me flesh

The best prince of hell's air, yeah, my friends call me fresh

We've already met, we kicked it all day

All day yesterday, no work, all play

No christ, all self, cuz when the problems came through

Your christ was no help when you was in that pickled place

He gave you a little mercy

But then tricked you with sufficient grace

But me, being mr. Nice guy

I help while you was in it

And Jesus christ, really is a nice guy

Don't put him away, just kinda shelf him for a minute

Don't offer him your heart

Don't offer him your eyes

Trust me, he won't mind dude

Not just yet, Jesus christ ain't coming no time soon

Instead, offer me your heart

Offer me your mind

I'm kinda tired chasing 'em

Time is so much work to use, but so much more fun wasting it

It's morning?

I feel like I just laid down, like I just got to snoring

Just closed my eyes and slipped on jammies

7 A.m. Already? Dang, it can't be

Well, it's time to eat my fast break

First I gotta take a brush to these cold gates

Necessity, because my breath is on stank

Then I can slide downstairs and eat some froze flakes

No wait, I got a choice to make

I could choose to lift my voice to pray

Acknowledge what the lord has made, and rejoice this day

Be thankful that your boy is awake

Or, I could go back to sleep

Waste the time that I was given to keep

Waste the time that was given to me

Cuz then again, it ain't that deep, but then my heart says

That's not an option, who woke you up man?

You know you clocked it in, wake up

And I reply, that all of that is true

So God, my time, I offer it to you

Offer you my heart

I offer you my eyes

I offer you my mind

I'm not a genius, but I realized that you have offered me more time

So here it is, morning

Not a coincidence that I feel like a war's been

Going on while I was snoring, don't know what the score is

But I know that you lord win

So I offer you my thoughts

I offer you my dimes

I offer you my speech

You've offered me mercy

So my life is the offering this time
