In the beginning, the Word existed/in the beginning, the Word was with God/in the beginning/in the beginning, the Word was God/in the beginning, all things were made through Him/
In the beginning who was the Word?/Word became flesh so who does that refer too?/In Him was life, do u think that it's maybe Jesus Christ?/well, lets dig a little deeper/go to John chapter 1 and we'll see in the scripture/verse 4, In Him was life, and the life was the light of men/the light shines in the darkness/and darkness cannot overcome it/the Word is the Christ/the light who was to come/to give us spiritual life/then there was a man, sent from Him above/whose name was John/who came to tell us bout the One/the Son/coming into the world/born of a virgin, any other like Him?, none/He was God in the flesh/and dwelt among us/walked this very earth, up on the same dirt and dust/
In the beginning, the Word existed/in the beginning, the Word was with God/in the beginning/in the beginning, the Word was God/in the beginning, all things were made through Him/
In the beginning came the great fall/it started when Lucifer wanted to be like God/so God cast him out/to where about?/well we read in Genesis chapter 3/right after God made Adam and Eve/that the serpent was in the garden trying to deceive, Eve/with the fruit they weren't supposed to eat nor touch/but she gave in, took a bite and Adam did as well/this marks the fall of man/the beginning where sin began/and ever since then we've been born in sin/but thank God through Jesus Christ we can become born again/amen! the veil has been torn/we can live free from the thorn, we were bound too/come to Christ who paid it all for you/so give Him your life, cuz worthy is the Lamb, the Christ/
In the beginning, the Word existed/in the beginning, the Word was with God/in the beginning/in the beginning, the Word was God/in the beginning, all things were made through Him/

Welcome to my world/men, women, boys and girls/where most living like everything is all good/but deep within/depression and anxiety, slithering/man what are we living in/sin, yes S.I.N./many are deceived, living blinded as a bat/dungeon rats, yes call us that/trapped in darkness, like a shadows silhouette/the light is faint/dark pictures that we paint/the brushes that we use dipped in pain/while we try to maintain/a straight face/thats why u can't see the suffering/really we have all got the mark of Cain/the man in the Bible mayn/evil in our DNA/instead of seeking God/we do things our own way/but who are we but a wretched wicked race/damned to our own flesh/deserving Hell, yes/
Welcome to my world/where light is hard to find/darkness all around, tryna warp and corrupt my mind/welcome to my world, welcome to my world/welcome to my world, welcome to my world/
Welcome to my world/where the gospel gotta be spread more/and not just in the churches but everywhere tho/we need to wage war/against our own self, and reach out to the broken, that ain't got no hope left/there crying within/there hearts need that missing piece/dying within/Jesus Christ who brings true peace/so lets give it to em/be a light and show the love of Christ to em/I know Iv been inadequate/fallen so short, but through Christ we are adequate/to push forward/we are not alone, lets go hard till He calls us home/see we have been elected, to proclaim Gods ultimate redemptive message/of the Christ who was born as a living sacrifice/to take the wrath of God and crush the serpents head/on the cross He done bleed/for our sake, so we wouldn't have to burn in the fiery lake/
Welcome to my world/where light is hard to find/darkness all around, tryna warp and corrupt my mind/welcome to my world, welcome to my world/welcome to my world, welcome to my world/
Welcome to my world/where the light is hard to find/even in the churches many people living lies/hypnotized, deep inside many dying/cuz they blind/dollar signs on they eyes/sometimes feel like I am being dragged in the same hole/selfish desires can quickly eat away at the soul/but money ain't the answer, it ain't the way/Jesus healed me from cancer, whats that portray?/He's the way, truth, and life/so why do we get caught up in this world/this earth is dying too/it will pass away just like our flesh acquired in the womb/death will consume all/unless first, you hear the trumpet sound call/see the Son coming down soon/we won't know, so keep your lanterns lit like a full moon/or u can't go, this a dark dark place/and one day it will be replaced/
Welcome to my world/where light is hard to find/darkness all around, tryna warp and corrupt my mind/welcome to my world, welcome to my world/welcome to my world, welcome to my world/

Empty, thats how I felt, like do I have no purpose?/but you aint see that when you saw me, you just seen the surface/mayn I was screwed up, yup, believing the lie/puff the blunt, I'm whats up, like the ceiling I'm high/It started off me and my kinfolk, young and dumb/stealin, dealin, feelin real and we just havin fun/until the law come, now we rockin them cuffs/they got my cousin couple times, kept lockin him up/thought I was bad tho, ridin with goons and them goblins/but you know how it go, soon you're encountering problems/no peace, gotta heater, and my heart cold/I know I need to change, feel it in my dark soul/then GOD stepped in, I'm thankful that He intervened/I never could have done it but He made this sinner clean/opened my eyes, now I see why I'm even alive/its simple really, we were made for the glory of GOD/....we were made for the glory of GOD/its simple really, we were made for the glory of GOD/how did I never see it?? Clearly I was blind/He showed me He's the greatest treasure ever I could find/so where else could I go, to who else could I turn?/There's nothing else that satisfies, thats one thing that I've learned/mayn I was full of emptiness, nothing was enough/the devil says he satisfies, I'm calling his bluff/
Yea u want life/get to know Christ/He's the reason for my hope dawg, thats right/I used to be in bondage to the dark side/now Im with the Lord, so u can say I now see the light/from the pills to smoking weed/I am now free indeed/through my struggle Christ found me/my heart was empty/but Jesus filled that void now my life is complete/my heart ain't empty, my heart ain't empty/No!

Living in a fallen world, tell me what should I do/people dying everywhere, most of em don't know the Truth/Holy Spirit guide me give me the words to speak through/this song so that all might come to know U/
This world is so corrupt/just take a look around/the enemy taking lives, many going down/many go around, tryna get some fame/tryna make a name/but whats it all worth/because we all gon die/yes, even you and I/because we all cursed from birth, no lie/but through Christ it can be reversed/see even though we die, we can live with our Maker in the sky/why? how?/well let me try to make it clear/Christ came to earth through a virgin from birth, listen here/He went to the cross and died for our many sins/see this Jesus is the Son of God that means He's never sinned/also what that means is/when He died, He gave us a another chance to live/Christ died but He also rose in 3/yes, He's very much alive, better believe it/come to repentance and receive Him/the One who gave His life/
Living in a fallen world, tell me what should I do/people dying everywhere, most of em don't know the Truth/Holy Spirit guide me give me the words to speak through/this song so that all might come to know U/
U don't have to watch the news/to know theres people bruised/see people dying to try anything to satisfy, they soul, quite so/its poison that be killing you/Ima keep it real/why pursue death, when you know u in that sinking sand?/In need of a Savior that can get chu outta there man/what a blind blind world/lies are being feed to young boys and girls/following the foot steps of the ones who chasing vanity/most of which will just bring along calamity/its sad to see/it is truly sad indeed/we need the Gospel to penetrate every heart till it bleeds/not literally speaking tho/I mean we need the raw uncut Truth to see a change yo/we all gotta do our part/we got the light so why not provide to every broken heart/every lost soul/we all really need the Gospel/
Living in a fallen world, tell me what should I do/people dying everywhere, most of em don't know the Truth/Holy Spirit guide me give me the words to speak through/this song so that all might come to know U/

Each and everyday this world gets darker/people living like there ain't no tomorrow/smoking and drinking away/problems all that I seem to portray/problems in the midwest/problems in the dirty south/people with problems everywhere, people struggling everywhere/
Problems everywhere that I go/struggling is all that some know/working 9 to 5 with minimum wage/now thats just cra-zy/and many got babies/now thats a problem/how do we solve em/what can we do/broken homes are everywhere/people breathing there last breath of air/prisons filled with so many convicts/couples torn apart from too many conflicts/how do we profit on this planet/how do we go on, how do we manage/get another bandage/put it on our heart/to cover up the scars/and keep on walking/act like its really nothing/man I don't think so know/people struggling everyday and don't know where to go/sins got a grip on many souls/where many are headed Lord knows/but one thing I know, we all need Jesus though/
Each and everyday this world gets darker/people living like there ain't no tomorrow/smoking and drinking away/problems all that I seem to portray/problems in the midwest/problems in the dirty south/people with problems everywhere, people struggling everywhere/
(ChanceCold - Verse)
Cold world, cold streets/walking in the shadows all the monsters know me/breathing in sin, sins my oxygen/poison pumps through my veins, battling hearts of men/at war with the heart within my chest/so much weight/and Im told to wait/but I argue, try to negotiate/take a plea bargain/and cop out to a lesser felony/my souls crucified, is anyone out there feeling me/eating up my adversity/try to look at it differently/but I hate positivity/my assumption is Im destined for defeat/my destiny’s to soak in fire after bathing in gasoline/blame it on the streets and the wolves that raised me/can’t stand on my feet, Im reduced to a slow crawl/and its hard to stay legit when Im broke cuz I know how to bawl/struggling to overcome the struggle noting permanent/Im at the bottom of the water, feet stuck in cement/tryna act like Im innocent but I know thats ignorance/so I chose to repent and I sought out forgiveness/It was freely given and the problems disappearing/let the light in that was missing/Christ killed my life sentence/now Im able to breathe and see the truth/and all it took was my repentance//COLD
Each and everyday this world gets darker/people living like there ain't no tomorrow/smoking and drinking away/problems all that I seem to portray/problems in the midwest/problems in the dirty south/people with problems everywhere, people struggling everywhere/

Beast Within
03:25
|
|
||
Sometimes I can feel the beast within/tryna come up, wanting to rise again/but through Christ I already died to sin/but why temptations tryna make me sin/
Sometimes I can feel darkness hover over me/almost like its coming deep from inside of me/how can this be/I thought the old me died see/huh, what now/do I give in?/do I surrender to this lil sin/it can't be that bad/so yea let me fall back/give my flesh what it wants for a lil bit/then Ill pray and bounce right back, right Jack?/naw, thats a bad habit/this is savage/it will only damage, my soul/I need you Jesus to make my life whole/I cannot live this merry go round no more/I flirt with the devil then I fall knees to the ground/asking God for forgiveness every time I fall down/this is madness, I need to repent/I have transgressed, I really need to repent!/
Sometimes I can feel the beast within/tryna come up, wanting to rise again/but through Christ I already died to sin/but why temptations tryna make me sin/
Rewind, as a young kid tryna make it in this world/caught up in the wicked life, smoking on that herb/I was trapped up in the devils game/living deep in sin had me goin down the wide lane/I was living so wrong/poppin pills that had me gone off in my zone/tryna make it in this life all on my own/when i shoulda known/that I needed Jesus Christ atone-ment/for all my wicked sins/but instead of getting right, I kept on living grim/sniffing lines of that raw and smoking weed had me goin up and down like a see saw/see in my mind drugs is all I saw/living as a rebel, rebelling against the law/and without Jesus Christ I was crumbling underneath it all/the devil is the beast within/but really my own flesh had me trapped in sin/
Sometimes I can feel the beast within/tryna come up, wanting to rise again/but through Christ I already died to sin/but why temptations tryna make me sin/

Mental Institution

From the beginning I was polluted/sin imputed/living my life to the edge of ruin/how ruthless/sin was apart of my life/I was bound and living in strife/I was down to given it my all/but that was just to far/the outcome not foresaw/I was blind and could not see/I was dead, but yes I breathed/I was chained to my own headstone/1988 but yet my was death unknown/untold stories of how my life was gonna go/I was dead spiritually/still living physically/but deep inside I was hurting emotionally/I was, I was, I was, I was the walking dead/and my sin is the reason why Jesus bleed/living a menace, I wanted my medicine/give me the weed and let me get it in/thats all I wanted to have/let me get high/I wanted it bad/man I was a wreck, I was a hostage, delusional like a mad man/my sin that had me trapped man/
Delusion/Illusions, stuck in this confusion/my mind is so polluted, solution/what is it?/I need a Great Physician before I meet my ruin/hostage in my mental institution/

We Need The Gospel
04:40

|

Wandering around in this world so lost/vision so blurred I could not see the cross/atonement for my sin didn't understand what it cost/the blood that was shed for the sake of the lost/this my letter to the lost/Jesus died up on that cross/to take Gods mighty wrath/and to heal our wounded scars/so no matter where u are/you'll never be too far/away from His grace/with open arms He is ready to embrace/so run to Him/repent and believe in Him/I know without Christ, Id still be living wrong/I wouldn't have a life, and wouldn't do these songs/but by grace through faith Iv been saved/no longer am I bound in chains/no more smoking that weed, no more popping them pills/I don't need it anymore, for its Jesus Christ who truly fulfills/
We need the gospel of Jesus/cuz it holds the power to free us/from a wicked world we be living in/we need to repent and turn to from our wicked sin/we need the gospel, we need the gospel, we need the gospel/
2nd verse goes out to all my family/it hurts to see most y'all living for the enemy/Gods goodness should lead y'all to repentance/I pray ya wake up and turn from all ya sins/God is so merciful/cuz everyday we wake up/is another gift how wonderful/and yes were fallen humans, destined to fall/but God being love provided a way to be freed from it all/when He came to earth and died on the tree/and then rose in three/Father, Son, and Holy Spirit makes the Trinity/the divinity of Christ equals (is) holiness/and this is what He wants of us/now how can we become Holy?/in and out ourselves we can't, its impossible/but faith in Jesus makes it possible/through repentance and becoming born again/Christ is knocking on ya heart so let Him enter in/
We need the gospel of Jesus/cuz it holds the power to free us/from a wicked world we be living in/we need to repent and turn to from our wicked sin/we need the gospel, we need the gospel, we need the gospel/
Dear Holy Father, I know that you have saved me/for a greater purpose more than just safety/from the flames of Hell but somewhat lately/Id been feeling confused, knowing that just maybe/u saved me, just to save my brother and cousin Jamie/then to throw me into Hades/but that ain't true/I know that its a lie/from the serpent who tries/to put a veil over my eyes/he comes in disguise as an angel of light/tryna take my soul at all costs/but through Christ he has lost/when Christ died on the cross/and then rose in 3 days/it is by His grace that we also can be raised/see Iv been purchased by His blood/and I know that God loves me so/and He loves u too/so if your also living confused/just know that Christ also has a greater purpose for u/
We need the gospel of Jesus/cuz it holds the power to free us/from a wicked world we be living in/we need to repent and turn to from our wicked sin/we need the gospel, we need the gospel, we need the gospel/
