Scars

Often
Often I've been pushed to the side
I feel revived from the pressure
And the pain I survive
Caution
I proceed with caution now
What's inside is a city on fire
I can't lie

Feels like you can't let go
But don't you sit and hold
What you can't control

I done come way too far
Take a look at all my scars
I know that my faith gon' hold me
That's why I can stand here boldly
I done come way too far
I adopted all these scars
And I know that my faith gon' hold me
Yeah I know that my faith's gon' hold me

Earth is groaning
Don't you panic
Love the journey
We romance it
Take direction
Won't be stranded
Reign on me yeah
I said I'm making my plans
Not holding my breath
Give me your hand
Just order my steps
Feet in the sand
We're doing our dance
Reign on me yeah

Feels like you can't let go
But don't you sit and hold
What you can't control

I done come way too far
Take a look at all my scars
I know that my faith gon' hold me
That's why I can stand here boldly
I done come way too far
I adopted all these scars
And I know that my faith gon' hold me
Yeah I know that my faith's gon' hold me

Look, I came alive
When they thought I flatlined
Are you surprised
I'm really one of the guys?
Used to high five and
Split pieces of pie
Now it's just goodbyes
I'm taken off by the skies
We felt the heat and now
I'm spilling the tea
When the pen bleed
I'm praying the spirit speak
When I was losing peace
And couldn't feel that defeat
All these nerves squeezed
I still kept it discreet
Cause who can stomach all this
Pain that I was throwing up
My mama showed me to a king
When I was coming up
Bought at a price and it's paid
So you can sum it up
I needed change so I prayed
And got my money up
I'm going Guinness, they fidget
I'd rather spend it
Took a minute, now
They see the hours, hours
Is it only a time, the real power
Talk to me nice
But the action speaking louder

I done come way too far
Take a look at all my scars
I know that my faith gon' hold me
That's why I can stand here boldly
I done come way too far
I adopted all these scars
And I know that my faith gon' hold me
Yeah I know that my faith's gon' hold me
