When You Think Of Me (feat. Bongie Laurel)

To the people I call friends and those I once did The people who consider me fam, even those that once did To the strangers I've ever tried to lend a hand, and those who've lent me one Those I've managed to draw closer to Christ, even those who despised me when I tried What's the first thing that comes to your mind, when you think of me? A little glimpse of me, what runs on your mind? What memories spring up each time I cross your mind? One who is bold and courageous, taking up all challenges; a lady so strong? Say"go" and she will surely do it yearlong? Tell her"run" and she will simply ask"how long?" Someone so daring, with nothing really limiting her but time? What's the first thing that comes in your mind time after time? A friend you regret you ever met, always on your last nerves? One who gets more from you, than he gives? Someone you're always there for, yet walks away when needed? Someone who's never been grateful, in spite of all the good you ever did? What's the first thing that comes to your mind? A friend you wished you had known earlier on in this life, than any other? One you wished you had more time with each time you're parting ways? Someone who, loving at all times, has stuck closer than a brother? Always giving you a million reasons to bravely face your dark days? What's the first thing that comes to your mind, when you think of me?"People will forget what you said, but will not forget how you made them feel" they say How did you feel when you saw that call and my name sprung up? What was your reaction when you reached for that phone, when you picked up?"I really felt I needed someone to talk to, and your call was perfectly timed Troubled by my thoughts, a thousand insecurities distorting the image Jesus painted I knew that a talk with someone is all I really needed Seeing that phone ring and your name on it made me glad It removed a dent out of my heart I'm so grateful you called I'm happy I could talk to you, thanks for calling"? What exactly came to your mind? A classmate so pre-occupied having no time to even say"hi"? A group mate too lazy to bring anything but jokes to the table before saying"goodbye"? A desk mate that distracts you throughout the entire lecture even when you don't reply? A school mate you wished you never met, no lie? What's the first thing that comes to your mind? Don't be shy! A classmate that lights up the room each time he shows up? A group mate that gave you a reason to believe in yourself, causing your face to light up? A desk mate that always makes you feel really important, often there to big you up? A school mate you wished you had known since first grade, as you grew up? After our graduation, what's the first thing that's gonna come to your mind whenever my name pops up? Well, looking back, what images do you hold of me? They say you only have the first five minutes to make the first impression, you agree? What impression did I give; what unanswered questions did I leave? When I knocked on your door and handed you that piece of paper you chose to receive? With a message I knew is able to change the lives of those who believe When I presented to you the good news, and spoke about God's grace Did the piece I delivered disturb your peace? Well, maybe you thought what the essence of it all is, like is it all real? Perhaps you concluded I was simply chasing the wind, like what's up with all this zeal? Pretending all was well, I guess you weren't bold enough to ask Shy and afraid of being judged, you decided to stay behind your mask"I will take a look at it" is all my ears heard you mouth Just ain't so sure whether at all you even thought about the words that left your mouth But if you did, what's the first thing that came to your mind? What really comes to your mind when you think of me? A kid you could easily wrong knowing he was too broke to pay back? One whose pain perfectly shaped the smile on your face, coz he couldn't fight back? A kid you considered a coward for sparing your life in the cave? One whose heart hardly had the courage to let his boy pin you to the ground as your strongest men snored on your grave? What exactly comes to your mind, when you think of me? A stranger whose company you really enjoyed, though for but a brief moment? Someone you considered an angel sent from the Almighty, helping you fight your worst demons? A stranger who walked in at your most desperate moment, when you were about to take your own life? Someone who gave you a reason to live, believe and leave your wicked ways behind? God forbid, but if the Almighty, Son and Holy Spirit decided that it was time I met my death If their love for me was stronger than gravity and my spirit decided to leave the earth What's the first thing that's gonna come to your mind each time you think of me? A friend you wished you had for one more century or a thorn in the flesh you're eternally grateful God removed? A brother whose face you'll long to see again or a foe whose face you wouldn't wanna see again, neither in this life nor the other; from your memory erased? For a minute or two, sit down and reason with all honesty; what's the first thing that comes to your mind, when you think of me?
