Lecrae

While there’s no sure route to carving out a significant presence in the music industry, there’s always something to be said for remaining true to one’s self. Since arriving on the scene with his 2004 debut Real Talk, Lecrae has been occupying two different yet not entirely opposing worlds: the sacred and the profane. Which is to say that his art, not unlike his life, has been as much about inspiring the streets, and about justice, freedom, and interrogating real-world issues, as it is about his personal journey of faith. His music has long served as a call to arms for those willing to sacrifice for a cause beyond themselves. Still, he won’t be boxed in to any genre or made to serve as a poster-child for any particular agenda. Following a host of celebrated … more »

Zaytoven

I seen so many 
Impossible stories become possible, you know
If we can do it, it can be done
And if you got God on your side, then there ain't nothing you can't do
What you waiting for?

'Cause nothin' is by chance (by chance)
Give me the strength to understand the things you see that I can't (I can't)
I took all my problems and I put it all in your hands
I know it is your plan
If it was easy no I wouldn't be a strong man
Now I put my bets on you 'cause nothin's by chance

I started off in my apartment
Me abd T-dot in the kitchen
I was workin' on the beats and he was workin' on the writtens
We just hoped someone would listen
Got that tat, said "116"
And ain't have nothing but a mission
Missed a couple months of rent
But woah
We done came a long way now
And God be listenin' when I pray now
Came from country roads and riding on the train now
And now we in a private plane and I ain't flexin', I'm just sayin'
Wow
So tell me what you waiting for
You ain't gotta sell them thangs no more
Went to Philly, told the city Free Meek milly
If he ever need to talk, I hope he know I'm out here prayin' for him

'Cause nothin' is by chance (by chance)
Give me the strength to understand the things you see that I can't (I can't)
I took all my problems and I put it all in your hands (all in your hands)
I know it is your plan
If it was easy, no, I wouldn't be a strong man
Now I put my bets on you 'cause nothin's by chance

Got two sisters they my ladies
They was both born in the 80's
They got struggles
They got babies
But they all in, ain't no maybes
Seen 'em hustle from the bottom
Gettin' to do it on the daily
It's enough to drive you crazy
Even in that new Mercedes, yeah
Seen em grind til they shoes scuff
My shawty used to drive the school bus
Never act like she too good for it
Sleeping on the floor when they was shooting in the hood, bruh
Lil' mama, what you waiting for
Start that business on go and get it,girl
Don't let 'em tell you can't do it
Brought you to it, bring you through it
You know God help you through it, girl

'Cause nothin' is by chance (by chance)
Give me the strength to understand the things you see that I can't (I can't)
I took all my problems and I put it all in your hands (all in your hands)
I know it is your plan
If it was easy, no, I wouldn't be a strong man
Now I put my bets on you 'cause nothin's by chance (by chance)
That I can't
All in your hands
I know it is your plan
