GOOD BYE OLD LIFE This is something I've been waiting for I think it's time to rise and seek the good life I need to change I need a better way So good by to my old life Leave my past behind Let my present be Learn from the past Gain from the present Set your future free I'm still that same dude But something changed in the way that I view and the things that I do Now I've fully improved stop the blasphemies I don't do it for you Sometimes in life you need to grow and reap the seeds you sow Sow the seeds make arrangements harvest what you plan to reap The plot is large the fruit is ripe Make a decision that brings good light to see it bright CHRIST is the path that I've chosen and I'm saying goodbye To all the wrongs I used to do and all that spiteful lies Sinful life I'm feeling much better now living in CHRIST my vision is higher than smoking a pipe Telling em lies Never say never you're getting a chance lucifer's a looser while JESUS a winner,I'm feeling much better and fully alive Good bye to my old life Baptism was the step to my new life Feeling fresh feeling blessed so impressed no more stress pierce through dark something like the moon light Some say I'm too strange in this new guy in the meantime lemme be no more two sides Taking that way that only leads to the true God tell who else does it better than my JESUS Some keep on asking me How is that you don't smoke again How is it that you don't drink again You don't flirt you don't roll with the gangs again And I try to explain But they find it hard to connect what I say cos they stuck to the world that is going insane and they think that it's funny to believe in His Name So tell me where's your faith 35 years still act like a babe think that life is a game tell me what is your aim Better wake up or you end in a craze By His stripes I'm healed This world that we live is a training field so be wise on your choices and learn to be real Left behind what is old cos my future is clear

HEAD UP 03:56
HEAD UP I used to be low Gravity was pressing on me until The Lord came to set me free Breaking off the chains on me I was blind now my eyes can see RAP 1 Now I've got my head up Now I've got my head up Looking forward to the top Ain't talking bout the billboards I'm on spiritual growing up Used to reach out to the Mars But now I'm farther than the stars Used to have class but now I study with them Angels hun Yeah I'm reppin JESUS CHRIST LDS that's my church Got baptized and it feels so right No more yin yang no I'm only choosing white Hold on homie keep it slow Humble yourself be white as snow Time runs fast not for cash Plan of salvation bro I used to think that I could buy happiness but I've seen a lot of people stinkingly rich but have no happiness What could be the answer they be asking So I try to tell em if you have JESUS you'll be happy You will need to kill pride You will have to stop lies You will have to stop anything that will make you gravitate You will need to love God and learn to appreciate Learn to have faith in the Most High who's great Yes the Lord's great RAP2 Head up Stay tight Are you ready for the flight Lunch me up into space like the nasa Yeah right That's where I'll be storing up my treasures That's why I stays stronger than this worldly pressure I used to be a looser who converted to a winner I'll be winning everyday That's what I do better I'm a goal getter the scriptures is my radar I'm flying away from sins And I ain't got no feathers Many tell me homie go out there an live your life You only live once but Amma live twice cos I live in Christ yeah it feels right I used to be a victim of the lies Used to be enticed like they got me tied up Used to be controlled like they got me high up So He came to my rescue like homies rise up do you choose to live or do you wanna ride on and I be like Let thou will be done come rescue me Lord And in a blink of an eye my sins were all forgiven Chains are broken Yeah He was my token I used to be down low till JESUS gave me freedom

THE BEST I CAN I'm not perfect I know that I'm trynna be the best I can With the help of Jesus I go wrong sometimes I know But I learn from my mistakes And try to set it straight RAP 1 I know that I make mistakes Many tell me that my lifestyle kinda changed Used to close my eyes and day dream See myself in a movie scene Flash lights and cameras on me Hit the block on a 17s Ride clean with my girl make the whole block sick Leave a man with some bruises My attitude was unpredictable I could raise hell in a Minuit And I mean it, If I told you I was gonna do something ain't got limits to achieve it, My conception of life was to impress with my abilities and get some respect from my community So I started pushing rocks Stacking up some box My whole life was a hurry something like a rush many occasions almost lost my life Can't believe I'm still here writing out this lines Thank God RAP 2 Something happened that really caught my attention To cut the story short I some how escaped a detention Miraculously, realizing that God loves me was suppose to do 5 in the prison that's not funny Mamma would have gone mad if she had known would have shattered my family into pieces like an eye glass The devil strong but he never got the best of me Cos Jesus Christ was always there protecting me It took me long time to notice Cos I was far gone lost in thaT new age rubbish you only live once and die once that Stuff almost killed me I wanted to be the best of what the streets had for me Saw that all my dreams and my plans ain't nothing compared to what the Son of God already had for me You Should know You so special Even if You fall most times Yeah He knows You not perfect

REAL THING 03:14
REAL THING RAP 1 Ok,No need to introduce myself I'm only just a messenger covered up in some flesh My mission is to preach the gospel and make em repent so they don't regret the opportunities given to them It's such a pity Many of us are living for wealth Ask em a question when they die would they be leaving with them no Many get buried with their coffins laid with gold and precious stones but after few years they're digging em out So many blaspheme after a million dollar deal They're turning their backs to what is right profaning what is real Prophecies fulfilled In the front of their eyes but they don't see So many do but don't agree But they believe in policies and promises from Pharisees Ain't that funny Men I'm here re inform you that JESUS is coming Get wise repent and start a new life The Lord has better plans for you so sing a new track CHORUS JESUS is the way the only truth and life Don't let them murder you with foolish lies no Come to The king of kings and He will set you free Don't let nobody drag you down into the endless pit If you know what is good Do it Stop acting be real life's no movie Hope you get what I'm saying now Repentance and baptism The real thing RAP 2 They say The more you dey hustle the bigger the cash The more you set your mind on vanity The bigger the trash Many waste their time pilling up They're sick in their minds They set the gospel aside and think of ways to arise But,I think there's something missing up in line if you believe the Big Bang brought you alive funny They even told you that your fore fathers were apes You're an animal act like an animal bible is fake Religion is a useful tool to keep you all enslaved Jesus Christ The Son of God Ain't a title you can obtain Just be good live your life and obey what we say Do a series of exercises on yoga meditate Wait Do you believe all the lies that they feed you If you do man you are gonna have to free you
