Emancipation

My feet keep falling off the path of peace Silently suffering through slavery My spirit calling, Yahweh set me free Emancipation proclaim victory (Tell it straight, now) Running lyrics back, listening to the songs I've done Why so serious? You know you can just write for fun (I don't know) I'm just learning, I don't like it, write another one I ain't really stressing 'cause It was just a practice run That's the way that I tried doing this when I begun (Uh-huh) but Trouble in my times were tryna take my life er summ (Woah) Shaking evil off me, trying, but I'm barely coping Right now I write it down and try not to bust my head open Fricking problems Imprisoned by my conscience Christians talk about their hills and valleys, I been climbing mountains Thoughts depicting all my fears Anxious, feeling them so near I was praying God would hear, daily, nightly I would call Him Times like this, friends supposed to build each other up (Am I right?) They see it in my eyes but never hit my number up (Hol'up now) Life'll bruise and bump, but I'm just looking for love Settling for ninety-nine, looking for the one My feet keep falling off the path of peace Silently suffering through slavery My spirit calling, Yahweh set me free Emancipation proclaim victory Fighting demons, tryna flee, I'm waiting for the day Movies in my head, I'm praying God'll ease the pain Cry within myself because I'm wondering "Is He fake?" Read the Scriptures. Yeah they, livin'. When are they gon' leave the page? Wreck my brain, give up my joy and I'm just slowly dying Bang my head against the wall because the devil's lying Abuse myself and screaming "IT AIN'T WORKING, GOD I'M TRYING! I lost my peace in all this mess, and LORD I'M TRYING TO FIND IT!" Think about the God in life, redirect your focus God ain't no genie in a bottle, ain't no hocus pocus Attacked by swarms of locusts, God tryna make my strength more potent While I curse at my loving Father, calling myself hoping I been suffering, tryna think on what my mama told me God said "If you gon hear My voice, then you should get to know Me" Well Jesus, here I am again, the same stuff that I've told You Over and over, and over, and over, and over Bring it down a notch, remember who you're talking to He's not gon answer to ya frantic yelling, hoopdey-doo I shut up and listen, God'll tell me what I need to do Keep my heart sweeter than a skittle on a sweeter tooth The peace of God that passes all understanding (Yee) The truth of God and purity is what I choose to stand in (Alright) God ain't a man that He should lie, sin, or abandon (Come on) So I give Him the cannon And He let Jesus man it Jesus paid a ton for my sin, like manning (Yeah) Foot to balls on demons, strongholds no longer standing (Okay okay okay!) Tryna see what John could say, creep round that book like panthers Heir unto the Kingdom, from a super bowl I'm drankin You insane if you think Imma bolt at your actions (Huuh) Blaspheming in HD, looking for reactions (Huuh) Making mountains out of mole hills I saw in passing (Huuh) But now you in a casket And I'm just laughing Everything the devil stole, God done gave it back I wore myself out, tryna fight my own battles (Yeah, yeah, yeah) Jeremiah said He made existence by His strong Hand God said He could take it So I'mma let Him have it God done made me free Emancipated me (Uh-huh uh-huh uh-huh) Joy you can't take from me And I'm elated, g (Uh-huh uh-huh uh-huh) I got true liberty No-one enslaving me My hope is in my Jesus And so to Him I sing (Woo) Jesus, the Lord of my soul You're the rock under my sole Life keep moving and we roll You, Lord are the giver of new life, so Chase you, penetrate deep my soul Fruit of the tree that you've sewn Take my pen, I'll say say "he wrote" You, I depend, you're my hero Take this offering from a man of greed (From a man of greed) Forgive my sinfulness and make me clean (Make me free, yeah) Yahweh restore me, save my sanity Father remind me that you still love me Your presence, make me know that you are there (Make me know you're there, yeah) My strength floods through me as I breathe your air (I wanna breathe your air, yeah) My heart is grateful, I have been set free Emancipation proclaim victory
