No More Careless Words (The Morning After)

V5.5

[Intro] [Acoustic guitar intro, slow and atmospheric, spoken word] Yeah, well baby. It's a new day. The enemy tried to break us, in the midnight hour. But this motel room, turned into a sanctuary. We ain't fighting flesh & blood, we fightin a demonic Hierarchy. Let's go. [Verse 1] [Beat drops hard, boom-bap Kingdom Muzic style, heavy 808s] Wakin up in the same four walls, but the atmosphere shifted. The heavy fog of the anger is gone, the curses are lifted. Yesterday the devil had us cornered, blinded by the stress, But forgiveness came & washed away the toxic mess. Lookin at the duffle bags, they still sittin on the floor, But they don't look like mountains of our misery no more. They're just temporary luggage, on a temporary trip, I'm keepin Scripture on my heart, ain't no slippin from the lip. We took careless words & nailed 'em to that old rugged wood. The enemy meant it for our ruin, God is usin it for our good. Ain't no room for the division, ain't no space for the pride, Got the Holy Ghost ridin shotgun, actin as our guide. [Pre-Chorus] Yeah, this brand new day, has birthed a new profound life. A new tongue with no careless words & a brand new way to say I love you to my wife. I'm riding high as an eagle flies, high above the earth. My wife loves me I see it in her eyes, that's why I'm thankin God for a brand new birth. Cause..... [Music Explodes with a massive massive nuclear drop straight into rising vocals filled with victory and triumph] [Chorus] [Vocals swell, passionate and melodic, layering harmonies] We building a sanctuary right here on the concrete! Takin back the ground, yeah the devils sufferin defeat! The anchor held strong, when the water started risin! We see the enemy's attacks, we see through the disguises! No longer careless, we intentional with our breath! Speakin life over the marriage, speakin victory over death! Lord, keep us in Your Shadow, under Your mighty wings! Even in the struggle, our spirit still rises up & sings! [Verse 2] [Pacing quickens, aggressive fast-spit flow] Machetes out the dust, man, we sharpened up the steel! Readin through the Word, makin sure the armor's real! Helmet of salvation, breastplate shinin bright, Sword of the Spirit drawn, we steppin back into the fight. Not against each other, nah, we standin back-to-back, Coverin our blind spots, ready for the next attack. It's Backwoods Real Talk, we livin what we preach, The lessons in the valley, are the ones we gotta teach. Erica, you're my queen, God planted u right by my side, Through the dusty motel rooms or the blue ocean tide. They try to use the pressure, just to crack the foundation, But pressure only builds, a diamond out of tribulation! [Hook / Repeat] [Beat strips back to just a kick drum and a choir hum] [Call and response style] (Speak Life!) Every morning that we wake up. (Speak Life!) Through the trials & the shake-up. (Speak life!) When the pockets completely empty. (Speak life!) When the demons try to tempt me. (Speak life!) Over my wife, over my home. (Speak life!) We belong to the throne! [Repeat Hook] [Repeat Hook] [Pre-Chorus] Yeah, this brand new day, has birthed a new profound life. A new tongue with no careless words & a brand new way to say I love you to my wife. I'm riding high as an eagle flies, high above the earth. My wife loves me I see it in her eyes, that's why I'm thankin God for a brand new birth. Cause..... [Music Explodes with a massive massive nuclear drop straight into rising vocals filled with victory and triumph] [Chorus] [Vocals swell, passionate and melodic, layering harmonies] We building a sanctuary right here on the concrete!

But the mindset is a mansion. Gods over everything. The anchor didn't break. Backwoods Real Talk Ministries. We ain't giving up an inch. In Jesus' name. Amen. [End]
