Trust gets you killed,
love gets you hurts, being real gets hated so tell me what it’s worth
Lyrics:
no weapon formed against you shall prosper
you are a light
Trust gets you killed,
love gets you hurts, being real gets you hated so tell me what it’s worth
I done seen these people change and try twist up all my words
I’ve been stuck inside a maze they say that means that i’m on earth
If they wanna know my pain then they can read it in the verse
If they praying on my name It better be inside a church
Don’t need diamonds don’t need chains I aint a slave to all these perks
I aint perfect but I’m working God I swear that I’m still searching for a reason
Now I’m drowning like I’m diving off the deep end
Underwater don’t nobody hear me screaming
I’m surrounded by these money hungry demons
I’m surrounded
So many fakes i stopped counting
No gravity but I’m still grounded
They can’t see cause their vision is clouded
Man I feel like i’m walking up mountains
My hearts broke but yes it’s still pounding
Lost my soul and then went and found it
I hope heaven aint full or crowded
Hell aint worth it I’ll scream and shout it
Don’t make these people your idols
forget bout all of the followers Jesus had 12 disciples
If they tell you it’s fake it’s cuz they aint fought for survival
And when their facing the judge they still put their hand on the Bible
Got my faith like a gun and I let it off like a rifle
I’ll keep speaking the truth and i do not care if it’s viral
I aint changing for nothing or getting trapped in your cycle
Cuz I know that failure aint fatal and that success isn’t final
I got love for my enemies you can check all my vitals
All the negative energy is a downwarding spiral
you can cancel me laugh at me call me out of my title it won’t break me or shake me
No I will not show weakness
Is this real life or am I dreaming
Why are these times so misleading
I don’t see God but believe him
And I don’t fame you can keep it
Trust gets you killed,
love gets you hurts, being real gets hated so tell me what it’s worth
I done seen these people change and try twist up all my words
I been stuck inside a maze they say That means that I’m on earth
If you walked inside my shoes you wouldn’t last a day
I aint got nothing lose by having some faith
I aint got nothing prove to people who hate
So what I’m finna do is say it again
Ey
Trust gets you killed,
love gets you hurts, being real gets hated so tell me what it’s worth
I done seen these people change and try twist up all my words
I been stuck inside a maze they say That means that I’m on earth
If they wanna know my pain then they can read it in the verse
If they praying on my name It better be inside a church
Don’t need diamonds don’t need chains I aint slave to all these perks
I aint perfect but I’m working god I swear that I’m still searching for a reason
Now I’m drowning like I’m diving off the deep end
Underwater don’t nobody hear me screaming
I’m surrounded by these money hungry demons
Dear God
Protect us from anything that wasn’t sent by you
