Paradise
Verse 1 I'm a sinner from the hood , I feel divided at the fence, Count the years behind me can I go where they all went. Spent too long movin’ fast just to try to fix the ache, Even family I don't see know my patience doesn't wait. I never wait in line just to prove who I am, Working cost the time, never forced by my hand. You gotta watch what you say and the path that you choose, if i take the wrong step then will the cost come due. I try to keep afloat but the weight sinks me so close, See reflections of myself in the deep sea its so cold. I’m not the image people think they understand, still I bow my head and pray to God I understand Hook Been sinning all my life livin where the devil has less time Tryna make it through the pressure, keep my feet walking upright. Been spendin’ most my life knowing God has promised paradise, Verse 2 Look at the position that the past put me in, Normal never fit how I was treated where I been. Raised around corners where survival speak loud, Dreams feel distant when this world keep us down. Too many screens show a time that soon will fade, Chasing those illusions while the truth still gets delayed. Mind full of questions, knowledge mixed with doubt, Plans in my thoughts, I'm still searchin’ for the route. I know God is watchin, don't need the proof to pay, my heart knows inside me not to test him in that way. Life feels like its ending, like its just abreath away, Every choice feels wrong but he takes anxiety away. I keep counting the years and I ask for what’s ahead, With the road that I been on, the response is best unsaid. [hook- choir] Been sinning all my life livin where the devil has less time Tryna make it through the pressure, keep my feet walking upright. Been spendin’ most my life knowing God has promised paradise, Bridge / Reflection Why do we have to struggle to notice the pain that we create? Why do we have to damage all that we have when we escape? The harm that we ignore always circle back again, The heaviest of weight keeps me holding sins in hand Hook Been sinning all my life livin where the devil has less time Tryna make it through the pressure, keep my feet walking upright. Been spendin’ most my life knowing God has promised paradise,
