Verse 1
Give me the strength cause I ain’t got one ounce left
I can’t freestyle my life I can’t afford to guess
It’s been 30 plus years since my first breath
Please bless another 70 before my death
And in between points A & Z is my life
My struggle My Faith My Son My Wife
But My My let me stop right there and switch lanes
Cause my self is the reason for all My pain
But Ever since I learned to call upon Jesus name
Your grace the foundation for all my gain
Anytime I refrain from what I know to be true
Is when I feel a million miles from you
So Lord give ne strength
Cause I aint gon make it man
You gotta strip me if myself leave me naked and..
Unashamed, Untied, untangled, unbound,
Free to hit’em with my sound
Hook
In Your presence Lord
Is everything I need
In my weakness You Strength is made perfect
I have tried fighting my own fight
But now I realize
All I need is for You to
Give Me Strength
Verse 3
After the Storm
After the quake
After the after shock is when I awake
After the darkest night and before the dawn
Is when the spirit rains down grace and gives me a song?
And when the Word came
Thats when the faith came
And when my knees dropped
I see His face again
I’m in the race again
I’m in His Place again
I aint concerned with being in the good grace of men
If you know what I mean
If you know how i feel
Then throw a one up in the air
And show him love for real
If you aint never known
The love the lord has shown
Then come see me afer the show and youll call it your own
I’m feelin fresh like forevers in my breath
Never again will death have a hold on this kid again
I’m here to spit again
Tryin to get it in again
Strength from the King again
Let me hear you sing again

Beauty and the Beast at the very beginning of the track, then a Christ-integrated message to top it all off. Nostalgic and Beautiful. To add more to the pie, the song and what it relates to is perfectly fitting for the theme of beauty in the midst of beastliness. It's just dope.
Thank God for this song. Donovan Lewis
