Temptation

[Andy Mineo]

This body's not mine it's yours it's yours it's yours

So everyday I'm fighting a war

To flee from it all 'til I'm free from it all (2x)

[KB]

Ok saved at an early age

In thirty days, it felt like I had managed to murdered most of my worldly ways

Worldly ways? But a couple stayed and coupled with a couple years

I'm wondering am I had missed out on the thrills I had thrown away

Was all this in vain? Strain to remain and refrain

And sustain through this flame in my veins

Lust is his name, this virgin a burden

I ain't never hit the club maybe I just need a taste

A lil' taste, a lil' taste is like a little rape

A lil' drank, a poison but can it kill a mayne?

A heard them say without sex life is a waste

But Christ is over all I kept my pants on my waste

Turned beautiful chicks away, dudes swearin' that I'm lame

Though I got a sex drive the Spirit's holding the brakes

There's no breaks this is His infinite work

Content with my rib nothing is sweet enough to desert her

See some of y'all done bought the lie

That sex is what makes you a man

But that's not what makes you a man

Anybody can go lay with a woman

What makes you a man is being defined

By who you say you are in Christ

If you have Christ you have all that you need

Everything you need is bound up in the resurrected Savior

[Derek Minor]

Look can I be real with you

They say that women want attention that's the real issue

And if they only wore dresses just a little bit longer

Then the flesh that I be feeding wouldn't burn like a sauna

Wait is that the reason why your brain is in chains?

When you at home by yourself in front of computer screens

Or is that the reason why sick men prey on

Little girls in school still playing with crayons

No! It's the flesh that all men should fight

While Satan persist to tempt us with our own wicked delights

See God made intimacy to glorify He

The flesh wanna do as we please glorify we (don't deserve it)

That girl is not an object for playing

That's a woman not a barbie I don't care what Nicki say

And just like her sex is God's creation

You spit inside his face when you don't use it how he made it

Sex is a gift from God but we've taken it and made it idolatry

We've taken it and put it in the place of God

And we worship it and so it comes out in all kinds of profane ways

And so we blame the women for what they're wearing

And we blame the media for what they're producing

But we never blame ourselves

For how we've twisted God's gift to glorify us

[Tedashii]

Flesh on the rise like the tide when I go surfing

You can see just what I prize in my life when I go searching

Roaming with my eyes; no surprise sin is lurking

Get's me every time and inside man I'm hurting

Pretending that I'm fine but it's a lie man I'm burdened

Cause what's inside is never satisfied so I serve it

Afraid of getting caught so I hide I'm so nervous

Scared that I may die begging Christ to reverse it

Lord you are the gospel such a bad scene

Even if I clear my history my past ain't clean

And I can try clean it up but it never seems enough

I trust myself then hurt myself fail this is tough

I need the gospel clear see my sin for what it is

One brings life the other death man to me plus my kids

Selfish in my ways and it's go'n put me in the grave

But Christ can save and set you free no longer be enslaved

[Andy Mineo]

My spirit willing but my flesh weak

And this moment is but a test see

Yeah, Lord you're greater than all these pleasures

I just wanna see you as my treasure

God I wanna

Flee from it all till I'm free from it all (4x)

Manning up is not just managing your sexual temptations

It's not just managing your sin that's not what it means to be a man

Because you can try harder and you can do better

And you can hang on longer that's not manning up

Manning up is our ability to lay down all of our effort

And all of our trying and all of our strength and say I trust in Jesus

I trust in his perfection I trust in his power I trust in his ressurection

Because he's the only one that can get me through this

And He's the only one that can make me free
