(Verse 1)
Yo, as i woke up and I started to put my clothes on,
I got a call from my friend,
I'm like, "What's goin on?",
He said he's goin' through some struggles,
And he needs a hand,
I said, "Okay, well I'll be there, just wait a second man.",
As I arrived to the place he wanted me to meet him,
I kept my bible in my hand so that The Lord could feed him,
I saw the pain and misery just by the way he spoke,
Said he fell back into doin' drugs and now he's feelin' broke,
I'm like, "Okay, well now you've only got two choices dawg,
Take the righteous path or be the one up in the fog.",
He started cryin' 'cuz all the pain that he was goin' through,
I'm like, "The storm will pass,
Don't worry brutha, let me pray for you,
Father in heaven,
Hallowed be thy name,
I pray that you would help my friend to overcome this thing,
That he be strugglin' through,
We're comin' to you and askin' for a change,
Would you be the one to help him,
So he'd never be the same, yea."

(Chorus)
A lot of people,
Even myself,
Are facin' struggles,
But it's up to us to repent from the troubles,
I know this life is hard,
And sometimes we get scarred,
But from our tribulations,
Faith be growin' the muscles.
(x2)

(Verse 2)
A couple of friends that were close,
Died and passed away,
Because the choices they were makin' every given day,
One of them drove into the oncoming traffic,
It was tragic,
He was drinkin' and eventually he fell astray,
The other two overdosed by using drugs bro,
It hit me hard in the heart,
Those bros I love yo,
But more than less I pray that they knew Jesus,
Because without Him then we're breakin' up into pieces,
You feel me when I say we need to make a difference here,
Because without Him then we're not livin' up in the clear,
It's such a scandalous world with people full of fear,
Livin' up for themselves,
Makin' it hell,
So we persevere,
Through all the hard times and roughness reachin' out,
And did I mention our repentin',
Takin' the narrow route,
A truly tough job to follow,
That's no doubt,
But what you gonna do,
When you get left and Jesus rolls out?

(Chorus)
Yo ever since the day that I got saved,
Everything about me definitely ya, has changed,
With my perspective on this life,
And what I claim,
Jesus Christ for life,
I hope you know I rep' His name,
And it's a shame,
That people be judgin' me because I walk this path,
It's like they quick to hate, and slow to love, and filled with wrath,
I feel it when they snap,
But Jesus said they hated on Him first,
So they gon' be hatin' on me bad,
And if you wanna check it,
Speck it up in John 15,
These are the words spoken by Christ,
And they're so pristine,
He'll fill the void,
And mend your broken seams,
So if you give your sin to Jesus,
Then He'll wash you clean,
I see a lot of pain up in this world that could just wash away,
But it's up to you,
And it's up to me to cooperate,
With the world or with The Lord,
That's your choice to make,
Never hesitate, but take your time in where you put your faith.

(Chorus)
