five minutes of rapping - sonrise lyrics
[verse]
i love how these rappers play their cards
rap about a few women and then it gets ‘em far, huh
your raps ain’t hard
it’s feeling like lard
oh, you made a couple million
now you feeling like god? ugh
i just wanna give you a warning
if you talk like that, you gon’ end up lonely
when your so*called homies
leave you for someone with more money
it’s kinda funny, ain’t it? huh, yeah
so you drive a lambo like a daily driver
but i got jesus christ in me, he’s my daily provider
if you would believe in him, then he’d revive ya
gotta lay my pride down so i see who is higher, yeah
i got goals that i gotta reach
but before that, i gotta preach
success isn’t measured by the commas in your bank account
or how many times you did or didn’t doubt
success isn’t getting more
or reaching a score
it’s what you did with your life
compared to what he made you for, ah
“aye, you need to start cursing in your verses”
i don’t feel like using filler
when i can’t think of something better
i’m talking more to my future self
than to you
my biggest fear’s saying something that really ain’t true
that’s what i say, so i guess i’m a hypocrite
when i say this is something i did
when i only had a part in it
ain’t been talking to n0body, not even god
it feels odd
and i don’t like it, i gotta come back now
god’s got me
there ain’t nothing to fear
he’s made it pretty clear
put i still find a way to doubt
searching for a way out
i know that he saved me and yet
only feeling i got is regret, ah
who am i that he would make me?
who am i that he would save me?
who am i that he would listen
to this sinner when i’m praying?
i alternate between humble and prideful
and when we move away
i become suicidal
my savior is a carpenter
my lawyer and the lord
he served and then he suffered and died
and then he rose
do you ever wonder why i praise god in my flows?
he’s the one who’s with me when i’m alone
he told me to go
the struggle is real, but
the spirit is here
when he come back
i pray that i will not be afraid
i’ll rejoice in fact
that’s the hope i got
i pray my god would be in my raps
he’d be in the track
puttin’ me in the zone
this ain’t something i own
i need jesus more than ever now
he is my goal, uh
what’s wrong, dog, you ain’t look like yourself
i think i need help
i need jesus to give me some rest
i don’t need to flex
i ain’t the best
might not even rap
i’ll stop when he say
’til then, i’ll write bars that slay
cannot sacrifice truth for creativity but
i still feel the urge to write what’s in my gut
maybe i’ve had enough
he’s enough
i’m running out of words
lord has overcome the world
i got some stuff to learn
lord, keep me grounded
holy spirit surround me
‘till the day when the trumpet’s sounding
man, i know i’ll be bouncing!
dog you doing good, just put on a show
no!
i won’t sacrifice the end goal for fool’s gold
i’m kinda feeling like i’m stuck in a loop
fighting of the darkness
and following truth
i get, knocked out with the same one*two
by the time it’s said and done, i ain’t even moved
this temptation i’m facing
to leave the savior
start chasing these things
and making the paper
now i’m a slave, oh well
at least i ain’t like these other rappers
talking bout money and boosting your ego
wait, what happened?
i find myself liking the things i’m supposed to hate
and lately i’ve been my worst self to date
but wait, i’m saved
he’s still great
he knows my name
that’s all i need
i don’t need the game
he gives me strength
so i know what to say
but this ain’t me
this ain’t a game
my aim’s to praise
bring people to his name
so on the day when we’re face to face
yeah, yeah
run it back (back, back, back)
i know the lord jesus
he’s risen, he’s living
he’s the reason i’m spitting
tell you how to live, hoping one day, i’ll live it
easter comes and goes
hoping god’ll use the flow
narcissism eating at me
whenever i get the gold, lord!
i’ve been tempted to take an easier way
but there ain’t nothing better than living in the light of day
patiently awaiting the day when he come to get us
there ain’t nothing better
lord, lead with your fetter, lead with your fetter
i rap a few good bars and think that i got it
but regardless if i ain’t with god, i won’t be popping
oh, stop it
no really stop it
i love your compliments
but half of what they say ain’t true
it’s time you knew
like i said before, it’s the same one*two
but lately it’s been like three or four, or maybe more
i ain’t been living for you, lord
my pride’s been winning
now i’ve been sinning
jesus take me back to living
i need you
teach me how to heed you
you lead me, i don’t lead you
you are the truth
you are the good news
i ain’t been living like i’m supposed to
it’s been showing in my actions to my mother and my brother
i love them like no other
but lately i have been ignoring ‘em
i ain’t been loving, i’ve been ordering
my side comments, my snide comments
looking at your problems
instead of looking at mine and solving ‘em, lord!
oh, here comes pride again
saying, dog, you the best in this thing
you ain’t done yet
well, did you forget
it ain’t me
it’s the good king
his spirit in my writing
trust in his timing
rewind, why was i spitting?
it was an apology to my bro
i hope you know i love you
though to you i’ve been cold, lord
who have i become
i’ve been acting dumb
looking back at what i’ve written
and thinking it’s enough
but it ain’t though
i need christ in this
spirit in me when i’m writing this
so every time
every rhyme
for the lord
maybe this is what he made me for
