Toby Mac – Lose My Soul
Play “Lose My Soul” video (http://www.godtube.com/watch/?v=DGZZG7NX)
- Father God, I am clay in your hands
- ’Cause they chip, and they nag, and they pull at me
- And every little thing I make up my mind to be
- Like I’m a be a daddy whose in the mix
- And I’m a be a husband who stays legit
- And I pray that I’m an artist who rises above
- The road that is wide and filled with self love
- Everything that I see draws me
- Though it’s only in you that I can truly see that it’s a feast for the eyes
- A low-blow to purpose
- And I’m a little kid at a three-ring circus
- CHORUS
- I don’t want to gain the whole world and lose my soul
- (Don’t wanna walk away, let me hear the people say)
- (repeat 1x)
- (Mr. Franklin, step up to the mic, sir)
(Kirk Franklin rap)
- Check it out
- The paparazzi flashes, and they think think that it’s you
- But they don’t know that who you are is not what you do
- True, we get it twisted when we peak at the charts
- Yo, before we part from the start
- Where’s your heart?
- You a pimp? Hustler?
- Tell me what’s your title?
- America has no more stars, now we call them idols
- You sit idle while we teach prosperity
- The first thing to prosper should be inside of me
- (We’re free!)
- Not because of 22s on the range
- But Christ came in range, we said yes now we changed
- Not the same, even though I made a fall
- Since I got that call, no more Saul, now I’m Paul
- (Yup!)
- Ah to turn from the gains of this world, to be a Paul not a Saul…..sweet ††† peaceout ††† en theos ††† jlawrence
