While We Wait (We Still Fight)” [0:00 – A CAPPELLA INTRO – SoulWatch Grace] (No beat, just vocals) I’ve been waiting for the world to change, But I hear You whisper, “Daughter, stay the same, Hold that line, keep your heart in My name, ‘Cause light still shines in the middle of pain.” Devil wanna break us, make our hope fall down, But my praise still rises, I won’t bow down. In the quiet night, I can hear You say, “While you wait on the world, let Me lead your way.” (Last line, hold out “way”— then BEAT DROPS) ⸻ [0:25 – 1:04 STREET PSALM DAVID RAP (Beat in, 39-second rap)] Street Psalm David: Yeah… Newsfeed loud, hearts grow cold, Another headline, another lost soul. Devil in the comments, tryna stir that hate, Whisper in your ear, “You will never escape.” I’ve seen good ones fall ‘cause they never could sleep, Fighting all these demons that we bury too deep. Walkin’ through the valley with my hands in chains, But the Lion of Judah broke ‘em all in His name. Every block got stress, trauma in the eyes, Short tempers pop, long nights, no sunrise. But I’m standin’ on the Rock, I don’t bend, I don’t fold, I’m a Street Psalm soldier with a fire in my soul. When the devil say, “Quit,” I remember that cross, Where love put nails through the power of loss. So I fight on my knees, yeah, that’s how I ride, ‘Cause the battle gets real when the Spirit’s inside. ⸻ [1:04 – CHOIR + SOULWATCH GRACE HOOK] (Choir enters big, with SoulWatch Grace leading) Choir (unison): Why so many innocent people dying? Why so many mamas and daddies crying? Lord, we’re tired but we keep on trying, We’re waiting for the world to change. SoulWatch Grace (lead over choir): We’ve been bruised but we’re still here praying, Hands up high, every heart still saying, “You’re our hope when the world feels crazy,” Jesus, You’re the One who reigns. Choir (repeat, layered): Why so many innocent people dying? Why so many mamas and daddies crying? Lord, we’re tired but we keep on trying, We’re waiting for the world to change… ⸻ [VERSE 2 – MRVPK6] (Beat continues, slightly stripped down for the verse) MrVPK6: I see teens on the corner with a blank, cold stare, Scrollin’ through pain like nobody cares. Devil in the algorithm, feedin’ that fear, Tellin’ ‘em, “You alone,” but the Lord is near. I’m tryna talk to ‘em, “Little bro, don’t slip, There’s more to your life than a clip and a clip.” I’ve been down bad, almost lost my mind, ‘Til grace pulled up, said, “Son, you’re Mine.” We ain’t perfect, but we press through the scars, Last night’s tears still fall like stars. But we rise in the morning with a different sight, We fight in the Spirit, not fists, but light. Devil tried to tear this whole crew apart, But God made a band out of shattered hearts. MrVPK6, Street Psalm on the side, SoulWatch Grace and the choir in the ride. ⸻ [PRE-CHORUS – SoulWatch Grace & MrVPK6] SoulWatch Grace (melodic): We won’t break though the storm feels heavy, We won’t run though the ground feels shaky. MrVPK6 (under/echo): We stand tall in the middle of the fight, Hands to the sky, we be walking in light. SoulWatch Grace: If the world won’t move, Lord, move in me, While we wait, keep our hearts set free. ⸻ [HOOK – FULL CHOIR + ALL VOCALISTS] Choir: Why so many innocent people dying? Why so many mamas and daddies crying? Lord, we’re tired but we keep on trying, We’re waiting for the world to change. SoulWatch Grace (ad-libs): (We’re waiting, we’re waiting, oh Lord…) (Heal this broken land…) Street Psalm David (spoken/soft ad-lib): We still fightin’ these demons, but we’re not alone. MrVPK6 (melodic ad-lib): Even in the dark, You’re bringin’ us home… ⸻ [BRIDGE – SOULWATCH GRACE FEATURE] (Music drops to pads/choir humming, almost worship moment) SoulWatch Grace: While we wait, teach us how to war, On our knees, not like before. Let Your love flood every street and home, ‘Til every lost child knows they’re not alone. If the devil comes swingin’, we won’t retreat, We’ll answer with praise, keep dancin’ on beat. ‘Cause every time we call Your name, chains break, Heaven moves in every step we take. ⸻ [FINAL HOOK – BIG BUILD, ALL TOGETHER] Choir (full, big): Why so many innocent people dying? Why so many mamas and daddies crying? Lord, we’re tired but we keep on trying, We’re waiting for the world to change. SoulWatch Grace (lead): Change our hearts while we’re still here waiting, Make us brave when the world is shaking. Use our pain as a holy sign, That love still wins over hate and crime. Street Psalm David (layered spoken): We fight the demons in the dark night season, But we know You the light, You the life, You the reason. MrVPK6 (melodic tag): We ain’t backing down, we just hold that flame, ‘Til the world sees Christ and calls Your name… ⸻ [OUTRO – A CAPPELLA TAG – SoulWatch Grace] (Beat fades, just Grace + faint choir) While we wait for the world to change, Lord, keep our souls in range. When the devil tries to tear us down, Lift
