VERSE 1:
After the Platinum Souls tour I did with Cross Movement I said my goodbyes cause I had to fly back to St. Louis / I left the tour early for my first semester in school / I was exposed to so much truth that I had to choose / between what I had learned and what I was taught to do / at my church on my zone I was so confused / the first Sunday morning back it was like culture shock / watching the shepherd and sheep explode like a soda pop / their heads was shaking they shaking over these shiesty sermons / people spitting and shouting but nobody's discerning / I left the building my feelings were crushed I felt forsaken / the one place I was supposed to come for restoration / and worship of a holy God and exalt Him in praises / spent the whole prayer time rebuking the Satan / spent the whole sermon time just talking bout money / while I was dying inside and spiritually hungry /

HOOK:
(Give us the truth) that's what we need if we gone properly teach, if we gone seek and we gone properly reach (give us the truth) / that's what we need if we gone carry our cross, if we gone effectively disciple the lost (give us the truth) / that's what we need if we gone walk up in holiness and boldness and meek and lowliness (give us the truth) / that's what we need in this race we running, proper lessons as we wait for His Second Coming /

VERSE 2:
I left the crib moved into the dorms, so depressed that I ventured in porn it was a crazy thing / I felt the disconnect from Jesus' arms so I ceased to write these rhythms and poems to disobey the King / I told my teachers that I was living in sin and my Bible I'd never read it again and threw it in the closet / and anything that had to do with God, Marcus T. he was going the opposite as a lifestyle / I called Phanatik and Tonic on the cell and said from ministry that I was gonna chill cause I was in no position / to minister to anybody at all cause I wasn't sure if I was a Christian at that moment dog / I started skipping classes hanging with the masses and my days were black and grey like cigarette ashes / all I know is that I wanted to die but suicide meant meeting the God that I thought forsook me /

VERSE 3:
But it was obvious, God in his providence, put me with people to guide me and got me out of this / during the chapel service a cat named Paul Washer preached the gospel and drove me on to the Lord's altar / and I confessed my sin and He pressed reset again, I started over and felt like a solider for Jehovah / I called my old pastor and apologized for how I behaved but as of that day we agreed to go our separate ways / I met this girl named Beth who told me about a church home, first I visit became a member and then it was on / then the pastor gave me a stack of books (read these) now I'm back with raps and hooks / took a summer and spent three hundred dollars on tapes and books and learned from these biblical scholars / now I'm back and I'm walking in light, living my life, glorifying Jesus the Christ /
