Old Ways Lyrics

Dear you, I've been meaning to hit you back, but

Without a leg to stand on, I wrote a few tracks

And I had to double back, for real

I think I just appreciate you hearing this one

Feel me

Chrys Edward

Yo Energy

Said you wanna let me go

Now I'm reminiscing faults of my old ways

Instead of saying trust me again won't trip

If you wanna turn that page

I was moving like the prodigal's kin

But I'm home now, pops got me washed clean

Been assigned to give my all to the king

Sowed seeds to see what fruits they bring

It's not about who I was or who I could've been

It's about who I am, been a long time coming

Father helped me stand

His approval got me shrugging all the old me stans

Filled my spirit with his love, he got O.D. plans

Chosen by the king, since a child like Dan

Shooting back at the opps that his grace outran

Father gave me freedom like Kazakhstan

I know love cause he picked me at my lowest

I'm stepping for the body of Christ, I'm a component

Killed my ego, now I'm flying like a eagle

Soaring through the hula hoops, swerving all Knievel motives

Getting back was me seeing how the scenes reloaded

Same tactics, opps giving hat tricks

Daily thinking God, I had angels doing back flips

Once they saw Chrys, said, Jeze, you can't have this

Yo, once they saw Chrys, said, Jeze, you can't have this

Said you wanna let me go

Now I'm reminiscing, faults to my old ways

Instead of saying, trust me again won't trip

If you wanna turn that page

I was moving like the prodigal's kin

But I'm home now, pops got me washed clean

Been assigned to give my all to the king

Sowed seeds, to see what fruits they bring

Said the pride'll bring the fall

Bit of ego turned to Saul

Thought through lies, I could have it all

But I risked it all, awe

Had you certainly appalled

Not the man God had in store

I know I said it all before

that record broke, awe

I mean, no contact

At first I probably moved like a rugrat, fiending to call

Had to learn true wisdom, proceeding to call the pain

If I could, I would bear it all

Cause now sincerity from me could never come across the wall

I be tryna take the good from it all

But it takes one bad fruit, now the harvest lost

Like a lawyer from Harvard lost

It's not supposed to happen

It's not supposed to happen

No, it's not supposed to happen

It's not supposed to happen

Yo, could there be one good fruit for you to pick and choose

Or it's forbidden like the garden's rules

I know it's easy pairing good with the bad

Can't front though, you know what kind of man you have

Sometimes a vessel's for healing's what I seen me as

Deep down, I truly hate I ever made you sad

But if the green pasture is not what you see me as

Something new would make you flee the past, for real

Said you wanna let me go

Now I'm reminiscing faults of my old ways

Instead of saying trust me again, won't trip

If you wanna turn that page

I was moving like the prodigal's kin

But I'm home now, Pop's got me washed clean

Been assigned to give my all to the king

Sowed seeds to see what fruits they bring

Said the pride'll bring the fall

Bit of ego turned to Saul

I know an apology could never suffice

Best I could do is never make those choices again

And they say true love is let her go, so

After this track I promise

I won't write no more For real

For real
