My Story
(专辑: Moment Of Truth - 2004)
I
thought my testimony was less the
holy, I
thought I
was less blessed then my homies, just confessing only the
big sins, I
thought that was a
badge of honor, I
thought that I
had to have a
story that was packed with drama, But I
ain't ever been shot, no big crimes, never smoked weed, never drank, I
never did time, I
grew up with both parents both cheering me on, teaching me basic things like no swearing (no swearing son), It's so apparent I
came up in the
church, socially this is where I
gave my worth, learned to pray and assert my self for God displaying it's worth, upon living without playing in the
earth, just the
average kid, you know the
type that like to play in the
dirt, came home with dirt stains on my shirt, reciting the
same old verse, at the
table no games no hurts, And I
knew I
was called before the
day of my birth, And it's like that, I
ain't got no horror story Go kept me in my youth I
give him all the
glory I
thought my story didn't flow, But now I
know the
blood of the
lamb has saved my soul and that's my testimony, I
ain't got no horror story Go kept me in my youth I
give him all the
glory I
thought my wasn't dope but now I
know the
blood of the
lamb saved my soul and that's my testimony I
ain't no gangster I
ain't tough cause of rap, never been cuffed and stuffed in the
back of a
patty-wagon, I
ain't never cuss in my raps, I
started gospel most ain't accustom to that, Let me get back, when I
was young I
used to think I
was corny, Cause I
ain't grow up in the
projects drinking a
40, And I
ain't never had no thug dude sneaking upon me, And every buddy had the
name brand sneakers before me, And it made me really made but as I
bugged my mom and pops taught me never to chase silly fads, they told me focus and bought me note books, I
really had brilliant parents they introduced me to Billy Gram See I
ain't got no horror story God kept me as a
buck I
give him all the
glory, In high school all the
pretty girls ignored me called me church boy, I
wasn't bothered normally though, Sometimes I
would hate living the
life of a
saint, They saw the
Christian boy and light right from the
gate, thought I
would preach so they tried to escape but I
guess that's just the
price of pronouncing your faith, and it's like that I
ain't got no horror story Go kept me in my youth I
give him all the
glory I
thought my story didn't flow, But now I
know the
blood of the
lamb has saved my soul and that's my testimony, I
ain't got no horror story Go kept me in my youth I
give him all the
glory I
thought my wasn't dope but now I
know the
blood of the
lamb saved my soul and that's my testimony Don't get me wrong I'm not saying I'm prefect, Matter fact I
took thoughts and conveyed about cursing, I
was saving my pain it was worse then it should have been man I
was ashamed just to say I'm a
virgin, plus I
was too afraid to admit I
was a
Christian, I
spent most of those days trying to prove I
was hip, plus trying to prove I
was cool, trying to move like a
pimp, My testimony wasn't cool enough yet, Then I
came to my senses I
put my brain to the
scriptures, Thought of how Christ was blameless to sinners, He didn't grow up on the
corner fornicating with sisters, A
good Jew grew in favor of wisdom, That gave me relief, rearranged my belief no longer thinking what I'm saying is weak, I
ain't never been sprayed in the
street but saved by his grace plus raised to my feet, And it's like that, I
ain't got no horror story Go kept me in my youth I
give him all the
glory I
thought my story didn't flow, But now I
know the
blood of the
lamb has saved my soul and that's my testimony, I
ain't got no horror story Go kept me in my youth I
give him all the
glory I
thought my wasn't dope but now I
know the
blood of the
lamb saved my soul and that's my testimony
