Journey

[Verse 1] Uh, as I walk through the valley of shadow of death Thinking that I could ride solo without any sort of help But I’m wrong this road is not for a hermit In fact I’m supposed to be traveling with a loyal community pack But a lone wolf can’t accept the fellowship so soon So instead he goes out and cries out towards the moon I know people might say he taking the care for granted Until they really figure me out hopefully they’ll understand it That I might’ve not grown up in the those dark ghetto streets But the somber rain in the Emerald still makes my heart weep Baby feet on the rough path, I got welcomed into the soil Born in November and as a child crawled through December Enemies give me pain, they should be blamed Gonna make sure they pay, burdens get heavier from day to day Thought this task of being a follower and disciple would be easy Reality is the faith walk is not for the faint-hearted I feel so weak, giving in into all sorts things Momentary satisfaction leads towards my suffering Fishhooks with apple bait, heading the forked-tongues Now I can’t breathe because of all the sins in my lungs Jesus I can’t keep up, please wait up for me But it would be even better if you could just walk beside me I’ve been through enough tough times throughout my life Now I understand that I need you, to be in my life [Hook] The mist in the trail covers up my eyes I can’t seem to view the light I say I can do it fine all alone, but really I’m scared out my anxious mind Up ahead in the journey there are monsters in the night But the dark blocks em from my sight But I know for as long my God is with me Everything is gonna be alright [Verse 2] The world denies it, but living is survival There are obstacles, traps, dead ends, and rivals Sick of this cage, been in the dark for too long Walking through the valley with only the power of my songs I might not be weak, but I surely don’t have hope If the Lord ain’t with me, cause my God offers me the rope Fall down on the floor, get back up stronger than before Keep coming back for more even though my body’s sore Yeah The Lord is my strength, The Lord is my coach And as long as he’s with me there ain’t nothing I can’t approach Haters, doubters, and unbelievers give me the ambition I have Friends, supporters, and believers give me the passion I have Now I just gotta rely on this candle within the eclipse That’s the only true thing that will supply me on my trip To have a creative mind so anxious it’s easy to conceive Of a fantasy life, that awaits you in the near future Father help me get out I’m a addicted fiend You give me true dreams instead of my worthless dreams I don't wanna live, I don't wanna breathe Unless I feel you next to me, you take the pain I feel Waking up to you never felt so real, I don't wanna sleep I don't wanna dream, cause my dreams don't comfort me The way you make me feel, waking up to you never felt so real Evil cannot bring destruction upon me with you as my shield My listeners might think I’m just saying empty words But for the record I’m saying what’s deep down in my soul Here I am unsure of what the road might hold Only know it’s somewhere with a weather that’s burning cold Good and bad experiences from the past, I call it history Now I live for The King’s legacy, gonna share history Continuing my journey, I can’t really see clear But with the Creator on my side, I have nothing to fear [Hook x2]
