Lyrics
I need to be a bit more like my coffee when I'm talking
I know how shocking this information is to those who know me
But I'm pretty sure there's something I should put more stock in
But my brain cells have been blocking
All the ways the Holy Spirit's pushing me to walk
When mocking's often not far off
From my considering but then ultimately chalking
This experience up to another time I punched the clock
While He was knocking on my soul
To take a step and stop the scoffing
At how powerful His will could be
If I'd submit and finally
Start propping these four limbs against His word and get to work
But I don't soften
The condition that I'm living is my heart's completely made of rock
And there's no door to even open
If there was, I'd probably lock it anyway
And stay inside no matter how strong all my thoughts get
'Cause timidity has got me holding on to what I ought set
Clear aside, out of my mind, out of His way
But I've just not yet!
Call it fantasies of doing something great in Jesus' name
But every time He calls to hire me
I tell him I ain't trained in doing this or doing that
As if He wasn't gonna teach me
And though I've heard the preachers and the deacons say
Still it doesn't reach me 'cause these walls I've built are thick
And trust me, nothing's breaching
So I should probably take a lap around myself each day this week
And on the seventh day, I should probably take seven
Maybe then I'll see these walls finally take a back seat
Sit down!
But no backseat drivers, please
If I'm giving up the wheel, I'm riding shotgun
And the feet on the gas are the ones wearing sandals John the Baptist wouldn't untie
And walked on the sea with Pete!
Get my brain out of the way of what it is you really wanna do
What you wanna do?!
I shouldn't be ashamed of the word or the fact that I wanna be used
True
So tell me why my tongue is bleeding from my teeth
Like I bit right through instead of speaking truth
Could it be that I only wish I wanted to?
I need more of you
Bold, make me bolder
Bold, relentless passion
Bold, make me bolder
Bold, to reach the masses
When I write these songs, there's one thing on my mind
What is the purpose?
I know God is doing big things with my life devil
You tryin'a usurp us? This ain't no circus
I know that you act like the Earth is your center ring full of freaks
While I sit in this cell
Did you miss it when Jesus sent all of your demons my habeas corpus?!
You can go back to hell and take all of your fearful thoughts with you!
I am bought by the blood
Why you standing around, you not hear me dismiss you?
Get out of my face devil! What is your issue?!
Dominion and power are given to those who are under the Son
And I am a son overcome
You might think you can win, but it's already done!
If I were a color, I know that you'd see me pastel
But here in the army of God I am navy
Oh now you can tell?
Why you making me yell?!
The scary part is that this translates to my life in other areas as well
And all of my crowns He's be saving are waiting for me to come get 'em
I step in the ring
Come on, where is the bell?!
In here it's just me and ref, where's my other opponent?
It's usually me
Let that percolate for a moment
Keeping my guard up for the onslaught
But I'm still caught by the cheap shot
'Cause I am already behind my defenses
And beating myself for not paying expenses
The price that it takes for the word He dispenses
Of wisdom or knowledge 'cause my brain still won't open up
No it just condenses
The cycle comes circling back to the top
And commences to tempt me with my preferences
Till I hear the rooster crow
And it warily brings me completely back into my senses
Are you getting any of these references?!
If I fail all of these lessons now, tell me what am I left with?
What am I left with?
Got the pen in my hand but can't seem to make use
'Cause what's written can never be unwrit
That's why it is written that we may believe
So you think that's what I'm gonna do?
To the greatest degree!
Are you still having trouble making all this out?
Let me thicken up the font so you can see!
Bold, make me bolder
Bold, relentless passion
Bold, make me bolder
Bold, to reach the masses
Bold, make me bolder
Bold, relentless passion
Bold, make me bolder
Bold, to reach the masses
