Hey God, it's me, I was watching TV and I noticed something You wanna know what I see? I see people like me who really believe that happiness is found in the lives that we lead Bro, life is short, better live it up Chasing my dreams and following my heart Making that stack and swimming in cash And spending it fast without ever looking back Wait, that's where I gotta stop you You don't really see the big picture now, do you? No, I do, and it's true, yeah I really really do Saving some of that money for retirement is a move I can live easy with the money that I currently use But live easy later too, bro Maybe buy a Lamborghini and a beach house And party all night until I pass out That's not what I meant Don't get eternity confused with this tiny fragment This life on earth is a gift from me So life here isn't really all about the money You said happiness is found in the lives that you lead Well that's true if you're living the way I lead not Even more than that, the joy you receive is better than any happiness could ever be I was born to this earth in a dirty manger I was became the god of all creation in a manger I was hated by many, they persecuted me But I loved them and became the life rearranger Died on the cross to give you a new life Rose up from the grave, now you have eternal life But what you gonna do with that life that you have? Throw it all away, chasing after meaningless trash What am I supposed to do? This is all I ever knew Running after women is what I always do How am I supposed to make myself new? How am I gonna flip and make a vow with you? Where were you when I was really struggling? Fighting hard to try to beat my temptation Where you gonna go ahead and let me fall again? Where you gonna go ahead and let me drown in sin? I was there for you, ever since you were born You don't even realize that I was in the storm All you ever needed was a call for my help But you were so insistent on doing it yourself Okay, I see, I'ma give it a shot I will go ahead and trust you, give you all that I got I will try to go ahead and follow your ways And start serving you for the rest of my days God, what you doing? What you doing to me? I've been working all day with nothing to eat I've been trying to run my own race faithfully But I've been hurting for a while, God, can't you see? Living for the kingdom is what I'm trying to do I've been chasing after you instead of making money moves But it seems like every time I do this righteous thing, I lose Is this whole heaven thing really just an empty ruse? I've been feeling despair for the past couple months, Lord I don't even know how to get rid of this stuff, though Life really spiraling out of my control I don't even know what to do anymore Lately I've been doubting your ability to save me Why else would I be struggling like crazy? God, won't you do anything? Please come and help me Feels like every day I'd be walking in the valley Hang on, hold tight, you gotta just trust me I've been doing this for your good, not your hurting I don't really wanna see you sit there suffering But from the suffering, you grow up and you're learning Even though you think that you cannot go on Even though it might seem like this last time is too long I know your limits, I won't let you be gone But I'll wait until you see the morning dawn Why you always gotta go ahead and make life difficult? Saying stuff like that ain't gonna look up, it's so typical I don't really care what you say, it's a miracle that I still talk to you, listen to you anymo I ain't here dying but that's all you'll ever say Why can't things ever go my way? Why it's so much harder to follow your narrow lane? I guess you don't really even understand the pain Don't worry, I understand the pain, I was born here King was made into a child in a manger My life was then immediately in danger By another king, the king of Rome, it was Herod Then I had to grow up and struggle with my ministry Try to preach in my hometown but nobody believed me Drove demons away from the body of a homosapien But to that time the pigs were really more important Then I was betrayed the night that you just came To the garden in order to add me to the slain I didn't even try to confront them or complain I knew that to save you I had to go through the pain Hanging on the cross, really struggling to breathe Pushing on the nails in my hands and my feet Died on the cross but I rose again to life You can rest now, I already won the fight
