never mind the waste i'll cut to the chase
i received a new life, a new face
still in the rat race back at the workplace
but never second place cos i trust in God's grace
make no mistake on the path that i take
i will proclaim his name to the end of my time
like them saints burned at the stake
you call this a safe place a chaste place
it's becoming more of a disgrace
sipping coffee at the table putting pounds on my waist
wondering if i'm doing enough for my faith
for all the souls that lost their way in the marketplace
dear Lord help them, help them father i pray
I know you sold your son as a ransom
through his death on the cross bought me my freedom
so how can i call myself a product of the system
when you planned for me to be different
unorthodox following the path to salvation
to bring your love to a christ-deficient nation
you never ration the love and affection
you shower upon your children
forever i'm grateful i'm proud to be your servant
if i got a choice i'd work full time in my ministry
don't doubt me i'm a fallible man but god is holy
what he brings me i try to fulfill my duty
i need yall to see that this is more than a hobby
bring the peace to the streets kicking frees
bring the heat on the beats telling cats they got the right to be free
