verse 1: yeah, gone too long though much needed, had to Decrease wasn't just speaking / fell to a sin that i kept feeding, fell to my knees and i kept seeking / that's when He said that enough was enough, that's when i read James 1:21 / that's when i left what was comfortable and ran straight to the comforter’s arm / now i'm back to the basics face it, focused, free, and i'm filling my space with / faithful few that'll fend off fakeness fade to the back while i make Him famous / yeah, you see what I'm faced with, flesh and spirit the common war / try being the best while being less my own aim ain't what i'm here for / what started as part of a prayer to fill up a void that God only could swear / became bigger than life to bring truth tooth and nail and to never come back to Him void as a fail / i'm here now, i made it clear that i was living for Him / no fear now my confidence lies in the fact that i'm His / this is round 2, came out swinging ain't bound to / nothing set free with the same crew(412), tied to the King but them chains loose / they came loose when the Son rose from the concrete / that blood runs deep like still waters i dove in and came up clean and i'm here hook: Look at how i'm reborn, reinvented, and restored/ my reward when i reached out my life story wanna read more / wanna read more, i was reformed / i was renewed, i was transformed / look at how i'm reborn, reinvented, and restored/ my reward when i reached out my life story wanna read more / renewed(gotta new heart), reformed(gotta new mind) / transformed(gotta fresh start), reborn(gotta new life) verse 2: back to the blocks like a track star, peep game now i know where the traps are/ got more in store gettin' my shop off, can't buy time when it's done for / no stopwatch where i'm going that race i ran will be done / i'll reap the seeds that i sown that war i made will be won / born again life twice over, i'm talking new everything / what i once knew i had to learn over, sight better than i had ever seen / not a slave no more to the sin i wore, debt owed but paid by the cross He bore / i live by the lore my sword my Lord want more get low keep my knees to the floor / honor my God with my life and my heart i'm a slave to His truth and i never will stop / giving praise don't need proof when my faith is enough for your glory alone not to myself oh Lord / by myself i will go, i came from the dust and back i will go / to live is for Christ and die is to gain, i'm winning so take it however you want / dead or alive either way i'm with the Lord that word is bond / my second life is an eternal one, no longer about what i once was / GOD made me BLOOD bought me / GRACE saved me FAITH brought it / my dad is King I'm royalty in righteous garments that life's flawless He's awesome!
