가사
Lately I feel like I need approval, need blessing
But for that to come my ego needs to lessen
My prideful flesh I’m always gonna be wrestling
That, I know for sure not just something that I’m guessing
I’ve had it easy I was born in the suburbs
I was around eleven when I started reading Proverbs
“Let another man praise thee and not thine own mouth”
Which means when I say “I’m awesome” I am really headed south.
Lately I’ve really been in need of some wisdom
Because what my peers say generally is dumb
I need the right mindset to be a real Christian
LORD just do a work in me until your will is done
If I get to witness give me words to speak
Because without You, Lord I can’t make a squeak
Give a double portion of Elijah’s spirit to me
And a testimony that others can see You through me
Lately couldn’t help it but I was feeling like a weakling
Maybe that’s ‘cause I was kinda trying my own thing
I give up my problems to You when I lie in bed
And to fix ‘em, LORD, You have given me a toolshed
I have acquired a set of skills for my wheelhouse
But really none of those can help me in Your real house
I’m so thankful that You give me strength every hour
Because I’m worse than nothing if I’m living by my power
Lately everything start turns out to be confusing
I try hard to learn, but take a test and I’m losing
I know that giving up really ain’t up for discussion
I see a hard task and I don’t prep much I just rush in
I guess my problem is that I need to take my time
Study like I do when I write these silly rhymes
Any gift I have, thank God because it’s sublime
Gotta stay sweet, can’t get sour like a lime
