selfish ambition - lou chikuni lyrics

[verse]
“teacher, can you do we say
we want you to do what we ask”
but listen when he say
“what you want me to do, what’s the task”
“we know you the king, right
so we thought it would be the right plan
if you could grant that in your glory
we sit on your left and your right hand”
but jesus replied back to james and john
“you don’t know what you are asking,” unh
in matthew’s account who was asking, mom’s?
in mark it’s the brothers, the question still odd
“can you really drink from the cup that i’m bout to drink up?
can you take the baptism that i’m been given?”
is how he replied to the brothers
and how they responded, we wit it
“we can drink from the cup
we’ll take the baptism that you are speaking of
able to take it we are,” what they thinking of
wasn’t in line with the truth, what it really was
and it revealed in their heart what the theory was
which is just
we be on top of the crew
ain’t not stopping the rule
with positions of power
and prominence too, huh
but jesus was cool
he didn’t rebuke
but would seemingly choose
to teach his disciples
the kingdom is different
what they would receive
wasn’t what they were wishing
they’ll drink from the cup
but a different baptism
awaits in their future
that’s after he’s risen
but to be exalted
what they wanted isn’t
what they gon’ get ;cause the father has given
that to the one whom he grants it to
the rest of the guys kinda mad at the dudes
but jesus would bring to the center
the heart of the message
and show them the master’s view
that to move forward, advance and move
is not being first but the last in the crew
a heart of a servant that’s humble and fervent
like christ ’cause he came like a ransom to
save and redeem us
that’s a true leader
you ain’t wrong to have a mind to achieve a
goal that you have but if all that you be
about is ascending above all your peers
you might have selfish ambition
and that’s a condition
that lots of us live in
but got to be driven
right of our heart with
a doctor’s precision
and brought with repentance
to abba who listens

[outro]
it ain’t about you, you
it ain’t about you
it ain’t about me, ooh
it ain’t about me, true
it ain’t about you, you
it ain’t about you
it ain’t about me, ooh
it ain’t about me, true
it ain’t about me, it ain’t about you
it ain’t about (crosstalk)
it ain’t about me, it’s all about him
it’s not about you
it ain’t about me, it’ not about you
it’s all about him
it ain’t about me, it’ not about you
it’s all about him
(laughter)
yeah
