I work, and I press
|
And I do everything I can just trying to give these folks my best
|
I sweat, and I grind
|
I used to try but learned that I can't please these people all the time
|
So I work, and I press
|
And I do everything I can just trying to give these folks my best
|
And I sweat and I grind
|
I used to try but learned that I can't please these people all the time
|
|
Hey, what's happening homie
|
Hey, hey, what it do mane
|
Don't know 'bout you but I'm working
|
Trying to keep pressing mane
|
In life, with rhymes
|
I fight with people pleasing
|
That's trife, this time
|
I'm fighting to please Jesus
|
I'm done with it dog
|
All the lying and masquerading
|
The fronting and the faking
|
I hate it, life feels so vacant
|
I used to let 'em make it
|
Even if it got blatant
|
No matter how flagrant, I'd let it slide like stealing bases
|
But now I finally get it
|
So I ain't ever quitting
|
I can't be passive, inactive like players that's been injured
|
Far from it
|
Been hurt, been even knocked off my feet
|
But I'm in Christ, and I want life like it's suppose to be
|
|
I work, and I press
|
And I do everything I can just trying to give these folks my best
|
I sweat, and I grind
|
I used to try but learned that I can't please these people all the time
|
So I work, and I press
|
And I do everything I can just trying to give these folks my best
|
And I sweat and I grind
|
I used to try but learned that I can't please these people all the time
|
|
When I ain't know, who I was
|
Everyday I wasted life
|
Pagan days of people pleasing cause I wasn't chasing Christ
|
Worried 'bout the he say she say
|
I'd repeat it like a replay
|
I was chasing their approval like a runner in a relay (GO)
|
I was believing that if I got it
|
No-doubt it'd be all good
|
But even if I got it
|
Somehow it would fall through
|
I tried to keep standing
|
Living by a weak standard
|
Believing even Jesus received me based on my weak merits
|
Lies from the pit, lies I won't forget
|
Lies that ruin lives and keep you blind to who you is
|
Sinner saved by grace, through faith for Jesus sake
|
So what you have count as loss as we press to see His face
|
|
I work, and I press
|
And I do everything I can just trying to give these folks my best
|
I sweat, and I grind
|
I used to try but learned that I can't please these people all the time
|
So I work, and I press
|
And I do everything I can just trying to give these folks my best
|
And I sweat and I grind
|
I used to try but learned that I can't please these people all the time
|
|
Every Christians on the track
|
But are we focused like a scope
|
Or are we racing never pacing
|
Are we running to the goal
|
Upward (upward) calling (calling)
|
Full in (full in) knowledge (knowledge)
|
Nothing hollow
|
Like the lotto
|
True rewards
|
From God the Father
|
Well we should be
|
No matter what they say, or even throw at us
|
Keep rolling up, and pressing in
|
And showing folks you rest in Him
|
See when it's, all said and done, I wanna, be true to Christ
|
I wanna, see fruit that's proof to know it's true to life
|
So look to Him, give up everything to make it to Him
|
To know Him fully
|
Becoming holy as you pursue Him
|
To all my saints, who know they saved
|
But know there's more to gain
|
Keep pressing till the end when we will see Him face to face
|
|
I work, and I press
|
And I do everything I can just trying to give these folks my best
|
I sweat, and I grind
|
I used to try but learned that I can't please these people all the time
|
So I work, and I press
|
And I do everything I can just trying to give these folks my best
|
And I sweat and I grind
|
I used to try but learned that I can't please these people all the time
