Ring Father, it's me I'm ready to come home now Please It's so hard down here "I know my child But be of good cheer For I have overcome the world Just a little while longer I promise There is still work to be done I have children that are lost They have forgotten Me Call them to Me" I will Father. I will Father? "Yes?" I love you "And I love you, My child" When I was younger Even before I knew the Lord I had this vision Of being in heaven Surrounded by angels Looking down upon the earth And I was asking the Lord "Please, send me down I believe I can make a difference I believe I can make a change I can tell the world How Glorious you are" And He looked at me knowingly And said "Alright, My child" And that's where our story begins There's a woman on earth That's about to give birth Awoke to life as an infant Lord, what's this new space? Just with You in heaven and Now I'm in a strange place With this body This face This skin they call race How is it that I got here? My memory There's no trace No re incarnation It's all unique Never been here before It has quite a mystique Learned to speak From two I called Mom and Dad They didn't stay together long So now it's Mom And Dad Regardless of this I was still young and ignorant My innocence was bliss Much was easy to dismiss For years it seemed My childhood a dream I had my brother and my sister And the laughter they would bring Amidst a new mom And new dads New trends and new fads New scars and new scabs New flings and new haps The clock never stops I'm getting a little older Bitterness and boulders Make a home on my shoulders Found a sweet girl Thought she'd be mine for life Broke my heart so bad Breathin felt like a knife Rebellion strikes What is this life? Found a place to escape With mary jane and a pipe Drugs and more drugs Alcohol most nights All the while Something inside Knows it ain't right Loves lost and friends gained Livin with a deep pain Emptiness inside Disregarding everything Dropped out at eighteen No consequence could phase me Hanging by the school Just to stay within the scene Eye for an eye Stealing cuz I was stole from Hurting, I'd make em hurt some Burdened so I would burden I hung with thieves I hung with dealers I hung with thugs I hung with killers I ain't trying to glorify these things I'm just trying to explain A mind deranged And my need for change By the Grace of God He led me to Christ Five years later started college Met my wife The love we share I prayed for others marriages Ready for a child Three miscarriages My heart went dark My Faith was shook Started looking for God Outside His Holy book Like a dog Creeping through the night With no master No matter my intentions It would end in disaster Tried to refrain From my chains But in my own strength No progress could maintain Thirty two years Of no gain Always held back In the sins of the flesh On the outside: peace On the inside: no rest From Johnny Doc To Illuminever The Lord changed it up When the Holy Spirit entered REVelationNOW It's not an artist name It's a way to relay the fact Of the state of mind that I'm in The veil between two worlds Is wearing paper thin The beginning meets the end So I give my testament I'm an ex-adulterer And an ex-fornicator An ex-addict And an ex-idol maker An ex-drunkard And an ex-reveler An ex-thief And an ex-lie teller A Born Again man A father of a son A husband to a wife A servant of the One Only the LORD In the abundance of His Mercy Can turn a tragedy Into a triumphant story His Word will purge His Way refines His Truth reveals His Life Divine Back in my Father's arms Where I belong He stays patient because Mine ain't the only song Praise the LORD
