Over 7 years ago I broke on the scene, I didn’t really know, I was fresh and green
Putting on a show like I was 17, stepping out on road, I wasn’t squeaky clean
Doing everything I could to be part of the team
leaving the crop behind, joining up with cream
The things that I read woke me out of my dream
It took my fabricated thoughts and ripped them at the seams
If I’m to believe that people on our screens
Are nothing but a bunch of devil worshipping fiends
Eating up fame and fortune like a foreign cuisine
And get addicted to the taste like a hit of caffeine
I didn’t go to church I wasn’t really keen, but I know gods worth and I still believe
I’m gonna keep the faith ‘coz I know he sees
And pray he holds my place for when he sets me free.
Chorus
The all-seeing eye needn’t look for me
If I have to say goodbye to my soul to complete the deed
My goal will be heading to the sky when I’m deceased
I’ve got people to see
Or is it all just fantasy, constructing conspiracies to keep us from noticing
Corrupt conductions raining down ‘till we can’t breathe
What do you believe?
Do I really have to go and put this talent away?
Now I’m fluent in my flow and comfortable on stage
Must I not continue to grow like a bird caged?
Step out the limelight, retreat to shade
Slowly rotting away, like a tooth decayed
Engage in a 9-5 a humble wage slave
If it’s all true, then I’m afraid
Stick a knife straight through my shoulder blades
If you all knew it leaves me amazed
Knocking me down with the strength of a tidal wave
If I promise to love, honour and obey
And I get down on my knees and begin to pray
Will the lord reward me for my praise?
And applaud me and make everything okay
Either way it won’t cause me to lose my way
I’m gonna stay on course from cradle to grave.
Chorus
I’m in my element, an act of God
And I know I was heaven sent like a lightning rod
My flow is intelligent, mainly because
I see no sense supplements, cheaters or frauds
I am realer than receiving presents from Santa Claus
Deeper than the reaper presented at your door
Don’t sleep, it’s time to repent and praise the lord
There is no yellow brick road
There’s no Wizard of Oz
There’s no replacing your soul, once you’ve sold it it’s gone
So, while you’re chasing your gold, don’t forget where you’re from
Embrace your spirit and home in everlasting love
So strong it’s written in stone and shined upon from above.
