Track 16 – Breathe

Breathe… every breath is a blessing I’m thankful for life 

even tho my wife hit the eject button 

on the marriage embarrassed but I’ve learned to expect nothing 

Expectations only lead to disappointment 

 

This appointment is Divine I shine with these sun rays 

bc the Son raised, I give Him dumb praise

This is my death and my resurrection

the effervescence of a mega blessing 

I’m never stressing for long 

 

God’s word is bond, I write this song not to right my wrongs 

I gotta remember that my mic is on til my life is gone

Peep the openness of my brokenness, hoping you find hope in this 

so you can soak in this Living Water

 

My daughter giving birth to my legacy now

Giving birth to my destiny’s child, it’s wild

God gave me her to settle me down 

This is my forever freestyle like I’m off the dome 

Modern day martyr prone to give em Christ til it’s off wit my dome 

 

Til God on the Throne is calling me home while y’all on patron

I’m cooler than Cool Water cologne

Breathe. Passing my faith to seeds, I can’t make em believe

I can only show em Christ and pray that they taste and they see

 

That the Lord is good this is for the hood

And people of God worldwide, Two worlds collide

The Spirit and flesh, yes I’m still in this mess

Feeling the stress but I give it my best til I enter His rest

 

I’m blessed, what shall I render to the Lord for His benefits?

From Genesis to Revelation remember the revelation 

Is for an appointed time, at this point in time 

truth is revealed through this music he’s using to heal

 

Chill for real He’s soon to rebuild that which is broken

cuz no one knows Him but the Son and the ones to whom 

The Son would choose reveal

Obedience better than sacrifice so we doing His will… Breathe. 

 

Verse 2:

 

So I live loud, never wanna be lukewarm 

Y’all got Louis belts but I got the belt of Truth on

Obedience to the Word is humility in true form 

By the grace of God I learned to move on — Breathe

 

Please believe good deeds could not appease

The righteous requirement of the Law so the Messiah went off

To satisfy the righteous desire of God 

to avert the fire the merciful Messiah He died on the cross

 

Love and life is demonstrated now I’m buggin

The worst type of sinner made it

The reason I had to breathe cuz I almost hyperventilated 

It’s like I’m inundated with cycles of living jaded til life was regenerated 

 

I been elated, death was the price of sin and He paid it

After I drank the poison, I’m Michael Bivins I hate it

I traded the truth for a lie

My righteous deeds is only my filthiness dressed up in a suit and a tie

 

Moving aside who can decide the illest fate

But the Most High serving eternity on a dinner plate

Earth is not my home so I’m not concerned with no real estate

I’m already living in the realest state

 

Of mind, may light shine to the blind 

I find to glorify God is the proper use of my lifetime 

Neva hide the truth so I write rhymes

I Follow Christ like I’m in hot pursuit of an Icon

 

Tryna blow da spot like a pipe bomb

Christ is literally the lifeline

The flood’s coming, the blood’s runnin, son u buggin it’s real

When the Day dawns it’s gonna reveal 

 

The Government Seal, verse 19 of 2 Timothy the second chapter 

But the Gospel is the connecting factor 

There’s a battle for the soul, I travel the road 

Of the One worthy to unravel the scroll… Breathe. 

 

Track 17 – Counseling Session Pt. 2

It’s getting hostile. This marriage isn’t reflecting the gospel 

every debacle looking like it’s about to end in a squabble

Sometime apart, yeah maybe we oughta

It all came to a head when she said something crazy to my daughter

 

And I defended her then we get in an argument

She turning up the temperature, I don’t want any part of it

Kids get your shoes and coats. Let’s go.

We’re getting a hotel for the night. I don’t wanna fight with my wife.

 

She wanted a weekend without the kids so I gave it to her

Then I came back on that Sunday

My key don’t work… . She changed the locks, I bang and knock on the door… 

I’m raging hot becuz what I got wasn’t what I was hoping for

 

She opened the door and I walked in mad

All of my clothes are in garbage bags

I’m like “Word? This is what we doin’ now?”

This is stupid foul, juvenile, but whatever

 

Yo I guess I’m moving out, I picked up my stuff

Took it to the truck, that’s wussup, I see how you get down

I didn’t cheat she never got beat, no creepin, no secrets

She still kicked me out on the street

 

Like I was some cheap freak of the week

That’s mad deep now I’m in my backseat and I can’t sleep

Embarrassed to say that I’m hurt, my wife treats me like dirt

But no time to be in my feelings, I gotta work

 

Now I’m homeless and I’m stressin’ out

Spent a couple nights on my ex’s couch

But here come my wife talkin about she wanna reconcile

I’m all about pleasing God, that’s the only reason I agreed to talk

 

I went to her crib to have a conversation

Our marriage was in a very bad place and we both knew it

I left the house, but I left my phone on the couch. That’s when she took the opportunity to go through it.

 

She went through my phone and I must admit it

I was talking about my marriage problems with some other women

I was dead wrong I don’t make no excuses 

I know it was stupid, this incident was my brokenness proven

 

That was my bad, yo I thought we were done

prior to this conversation we hadn’t talked in a month

The root of the problem was hard to confront 

I’m brokenhearted for one, and for two, it wasn’t to God I would run  

 

but instead I’m sparking a blunt, buggin out 

still I bounce from house to house and couch to couch 

My spouse wants out of the marriage, Lord save us

Then she sent her daughter to serve me divorce papers 

 

Now I know it’s over my heart is broken 

I’m asking where is the God that I hope in

I don’t wanna be sober 

And it’s Christmas time Merry Christmas to me

My life is falling apart very significantly

 

Word of divorce is spreading, “Willie I heard, and I’m so sorry”

That’s wild cuz I ain’t told nobody 

I gotta get away before I go insane 

It’s not a game, I literally hopped on the plane

 

And now I’m headed to Vegas again

To take my mind offline and just have a good time 

Let it begin that’s when I met with a friend 

Checkin in to the telly I fell into sexual sin

 

A month or two later we get back in contact 

We talking bout reconciliation and we on that

We seem to be getting along not really beefin and it’s flowing 

But I got a secret that I’m holding 

 

And if we’re gonna rebuild I gotta spill

Cuz keepin secrets in a marriage is ill for real

So I said babygirl there’s something I gotta tell ya 

When I went to Vegas yo I had a moral failure

 

This is something that I needed to confess to ya

I seen an old friend out in Vegas and I slept with her

Shorty cried, and something inside of me died

I got a face it head on and swallow my pride

 

Lord God right now I need you more than ever

I wanna reconcile with my wife it’s for the better

The next day yo I’m straight shook

Mad people texting me telling me to check my Facebook

 

As soon as I open it up, I see my wedding picture

With a red jagged line drawn through the middle of us

I’m filled with disgust my wife made a post telling people I went to Vegas and I slept with a prostitute

 

I’m finna bust, this is far from true

And she ain’t mentioned nothing about what she did

(is this hard for you? Do you wanna continue to talk it through?)

Yes, this is healing for me, no matter what God will get his glory

 

A while later, there was a kick at the door

I opened it up and it was my sister-in-law

She had papers that she wanted me to sign dissolution of the marriage so I signed on the dotted line

 

I closed the door and sat on the bed and I cried

I tried.. I’m all alone crying out to God

Just sitting there in Tacoma, where is Jehovah?

I need you. Cuz just like that my marriage is over.

 

Talking:

 

And that was it. Just like that the marriage was done. I didn’t downplay what I did and I didn’t exaggerate what she did. 

 

My hope was that we were both confess our sins of what we did to one another and repent, and be reconciled. That would’ve been a beautiful reflection and representation of the gospel. But that didn’t happen. So from there, I just had to forgive her and hope that she forgives me. And then give myself to God for him to heal me. Life has just delivered me blow after blow. It’s like I’m in the fight of my life….

 

Track 18 – Divorce

Verse 1:

 

You probably thought that for life you would be together 

Husband and wife you would be forever 

All of a sudden, there’s trouble in town 

The marriage is stumbling, and now the fairytale is crumbling down 

 

Remember how you were embracing each other 

Wussup wit the vows that you made to each other, it’s wild

You vowed to be together in sickness and health

Whether you were poor or had riches and wealth

 

For better or worse, living in blessing instead of the curse

As a reflection of Christ and His precious Church

But instead we have normalized forcing God to tear apart 

What He has joined together, this is borderline 

 

Idolatry, desiring our own will more than God’s

The Church acting like divorce is fine

We out here doin’ what the culture doin’

Treating marriage how the world treats it and bringing our souls to ruin

 

Yo this is crazy odd… How did we get so comfortable

Breaking the vows and promises that we made to God?

Something to question, we are stuck in such a deception

What is the message we’re given in Judges 11

 

We see Jephthah put his daughter’s head to the sword

To fulfill a vow that he said to the Lord

But we don’t reverence God as He deserves

We would rather settle the score and get a divorce

 

Marriage comes from a sacred Source— God above

And we’re the ones that break the course

While we yelling “Praise the Lord”, and at the same time straight ignore the fact that God hates Divorce

 

Hook:

 

What God joined together let no man bring separation

Please forgive us for breaking vows with no hesitation 

So we’re praying to God, He can bring restoration

Bring healing to those affected by devastation of divorce 

 

The devastation of divorce— Marriage isn’t always what you hoped it would be

The devastation of divorce— What it does to a person emotionally

The devastation of divorce— If you’re divorced I urge you to put your hope in God

The devastation of divorce— Cuz only God can truly heal a broken heart

 

Verse 2:

 

We don’t care nothing about keeping our vows

We just care about getting out and who’s keeping the house

We don’t wanna be stuck with the spouse because we’re not on one accord

We’d rather break our promise to the Lord

 

Everybody’s looking for the loophole

What about this and what about that… What about your vow to God?

The two of you were so in love, but now it’s hard

The two became one but now you want out the bond

 

Staying in the marriage taste like punishment

So you’d rather break the covenant… man..

You may feel in your heart that that’s the right thing

But let’s look at Jesus’s teaching in Matthew 19

 

He said in verse 5 that the two become one flesh

They’re no longer two but they’re one flesh

So what God joined together let not man separate

Marriage is supposed to last for life until one’s death

 

Jesus said that Moses gave us permission to divorce

And put a marriage to death cuz our hearts were hard

That’s still the reason that people divorce today

They looking for a way out instead of seeking how to honor God

 

In the midst of a difficult situation

God can turn it all for your spiritual liberation

To get you to pursue the glory of God in your decision making

Is the point of this lyrical dissertation 

 

I hope this song doesn’t feel judgment-like

I ain’t coming at nobody I’m saying divorce is nothing nice

I’m super guilty of divorce, yo I’ve done it twice

Another reason that I’m thankful for the blood of Christ

 

I know there’s many like me still feeling the pain

But the blood of Christ removes the guilt and the shame

There’s joy in God, I want y’all to know the feeling

Run to God for your healing….. I love y’all…

 

Hook:

 

What God joined together let no man bring separation

Please forgive us for breaking vows with no hesitation 

So we’re praying to God, He can bring restoration

Bring healing to those affected by devastation of divorce 

 

The devastation of divorce— Marriage isn’t always what you hoped it would be

The devastation of divorce— What it does to a person emotionally

The devastation of divorce— If you’re divorced I urge you to put your hope in God

The devastation of divorce— Cuz only God can truly heal a broken heart

 

Track 19 – I Apologize

Hook:

 

Lord I try, tryna to do your will

But I feel again I’m hurt by how that makes You feel

You forgave a trillion thousand times

I’m here again to say that I apologize 

 

I apologize 

I apologize 

I apologize 

I apologize 

 

Verse 1:

 

Lord, I’m so frustrated with the way that I be responding to life and I know you probably gotta be sick of me

Falling into sin again and again and the enemy is tempting me wickedly I am living in my misery

 

And I know you sent your only Son to pay the penalty for the wickedness of my iniquity

Christ suffered in my place for the purpose of forgiving me ridding me of the sin in me

Tryna crawl to the foot of the cross

 

But there are times that I don’t have the energy 

Chillin all alone in my living room just me and a bottle of Hennessy 

but I’m already knowing that ain’t the remedy 

I feel like you ain’t really feeling me 

 

so bogus, no focus I be tryna follow the word of God in my own strength knowing I don’t have the ability but you’re reminding me that your Holy Spirit still lives in me

 

I need you to deliver me from the enemy and the enemy is the inner me

I not perfect and I never been the type of person to even desire to pretend to be

 

My identity is I’m a child of God if I don’t take the responsibility of living in it then it’s killing me

Feeling like a failure, so I’m falling on my knees to tell you that I need a Helper 

Hell yeah

 

Hook:

 

Lord I try, tryna to do your will

But I feel again I’m hurt by how that makes You feel

You forgave a trillion thousand times

I’m here again to say that I apologize 

 

I realize that I sinned against a holy God

Never intended on giving you a broken heart

Heavenly Father, will you forgive me of my sins?

I wanna be cleansed from the depths of my heart and soul within

 

Verse 2:

 

I really hate how I have a tendency to react to whatever happens to me coming from a broken place

Every day I’m falling short of the glory of God when God is responding to me yo I hope it’s grace

 

He elected me before the beginning of time he said it in Peter I’m part of a chosen race

God is infinite in his holiness and I am a sinner

Christ is the bridge like the Golden Gate

 

Lord help me to be strong when I’m being tempted and help me to stand firm being bold in faith

God is still working on me, conforming me to the image of Christ, so you can call it an open case

 

While I’m over here, praying and saying the day is coming, and I can’t wait to behold His face

Am I really doing everything that I can to grow in my holiness and to really grow in grace?

 

Now I’m running and gunning like Golden Tate

Shooting like Curry in the Golden State

I am being tempted in the coldest ways

Praying that the temptation will go away

 

I be doing things that be grieving the Spirit of God maybe that’s why he don’t show His face

Maybe I am being impatient and God is trying to show me just how I’m supposed to wait

 

But it’s so hard so hard oh God

 

Hook:

 

I apologize 

I apologize 

I apologize 

I apologize 

 

I realize that I sinned against a holy God

Never intended on giving you a broken heart

Heavenly Father, will you forgive me of my sins?

I wanna be cleansed from the depths of my heart and soul within

 

I realize that I sinned against a holy God

Never intended on giving you a broken heart

Heavenly Father, will you forgive me of my sins?

I wanna be cleansed from the depths of my heart and soul within

 

Track 20 – Singleness

 

Verse 1:

 

Ayo my word is bond… I heard it’s hard out here for a pimp

but it’s harder for a man with a plan

Tryna stand on the word of God, cuz the flesh is like a murder squad 

trying to assassinate and decapitate

 

The obedience of the righteous seeing that it’s a crisis

The enemy uses the most devious of devices

Your sexual desires that come natural to the flesh

But that’s the very thing we’re called to smash and put to death

 

And suffocate the lust, have it gasping for a breath

Your body asking for sex that’s the passions of the flesh

It’s actually a test and he who endures to the end

Will be saved, Lord, make your people pure of this sin

 

I’m sure to offend those who don’t take God‘s word serious

They believe a lie read Ephesians 5 

The sexually immoral have no inheritance in the kingdom of Christ

Lord, help us in this singleness life

 

Hook:

 

There’s a very specific reason I’m singing this

Lord Jesus, please help me in my singleness

I be finding myself trying to sneak a kiss

Lord, I wanna bring you glory in my singleness

Being single feels like I’m falling in the abyss

Lord Jesus, please help me in my singleness

Giving my body to fornication is treasonous

Lord, I wanna bring you glory in my singleness

 

Verse 2:

 

God told us to present our bodies as a living sacrifice 

to our master Christ He will reward us in the afterlife

We take our eyes off Christ and we start lacking sight

That is right when we start feeding our fleshly appetite

 

This is true. The glory of God is at the pinnacle 

if we ain’t keeping him first we cheapen his worth

This ain’t subliminal you’ll be reaping the curse when your feet’s in the dirt 

if you ain’t killing your sin, your sin will be killing you

 

So run after Jesus cuz he’s more amazing

Than chasing fleeting desires that breed short elation

Please Lord, I’m praying Lord God I plead for the nation 

help your people flee fornication

 

He died for this sin so it’s time to repent

For those who lost the fear of God help them find it again

To behold your glory, help us see how glorious your kingdom is

Lord help us live holy in our singleness 

 

Hook:

 

There’s a very specific reason I’m singing this

Lord Jesus, please help me in my singleness

I be finding myself trying to sneak a kiss

Lord, I wanna bring you glory in my singleness

Being single feels like I’m falling in the abyss

Lord Jesus, please help me in my singleness

Giving my body to fornication is treasonous

Lord, I wanna bring you glory in my singleness

 

Verse 3:

 

I’m speaking facts, they sweeping it under the mat

creeping and sleeping with other cats, keeping it under wraps

Fornication is running rampant in the body of Christ 

Lord please help me fight the flesh this is life or death

 

When you’re being tempted God will provide a way out

But don’t be chasing temptation embracing tryna make out

You know how it goes be wise at heart don’t try to start 

kissing and touching rubbing one another’s private parts

 

Inside ya heart, yo what is happening

You’re being deceived again, forgetting that Jesus is

A greater pleasure, giving joy to a greater measure

But Satan wants you to believe that his way is better

 

Christ is a greater Treasure, sin separates us

From God, but I want us to stay together

This single life for me is hard, no Khadijah

But God’s forgiven people are living single to the glory of God 

 

Hook:

 

There’s a very specific reason I’m singing this

Lord Jesus, please help me in my singleness

I be finding myself trying to sneak a kiss

Lord, I wanna bring you glory in my singleness

Being single feels like I’m falling in the abyss

Lord Jesus, please help me in my singleness

Giving my body to fornication is treasonous

Lord, I wanna bring you glory in my singleness
