INtERNAL WAR Lyrics

The mental battles that we have are real

And the substitute things that we'd rather feel

Oh you know what that gets like

It's the mind that we can fight

I pray for you that you open up

And decide to come across the chosen one

Cause I know what that gets like

And it's dope what I can write

I can play it back

It's been a year since I came home right through the gates and made a pact

September 28th of 2022's the date I have

I changed from that and grown up as a person and I prayed for that

I read the Bible from so long ago and it be stating facts

Are you are what you are or what you're meant to be

I always am me but a chunk of me's a separate entity

I'm never going back or giving into that so let it be

Because I gotta better chance of walking here to Venice beach

Then rap my way to NYC and sing my way to Tennessee

God has got these angels on my shoulders here protecting me

A chip on my shoulder turned to angels and it set me free

The old version of myself is something that you'll never see

Yeah see me lose, I could never fill your shoes

So my brain is in a war or not, I feel the need to prove

Not to you, declaration of a battle with my mood

I could lay it out to tell just for them to seem confused

Oh the mind games are playing me

Yeah, but the battle's here to stay with me

It's like I'm never what they claim to be

Amazingly, God will always win, I'm okay with waiting patiently

Waiting patiently, hardest way to be

I can promise that trying to get better's engrained in me

You can wait and see

Someone without God is someone that I'd really hate to be

You feel vacancy

From your brain to feet so take a seat

Temporary happiness surrounds you oh like majorly

God had called me up, like the major leagues

He'd say to me, it takes bravery

Just to pray to me

The devil rings my phone so often just to claim to me there's no escaping me

Yeah see me lose, I could never fill your shoes

So my brain is in a war or not, I feel the need to prove

Not to you, declaration of a battle with my mood

I could lay it out to tell just for them to seem confused

Oh the mind games are playing me

Yeah, but the battle's here to stay with me

It's like I'm never what they claim to be

Amazingly, God will always win, I'm okay with waiting patiently

The fake voices that I heard before

I thank God for internal war

Cause that would mean that I got him with me

And that's what I'm reading all these verses for

I used to look at the main stages

But then I saw the face that I painted

I hated that person I was chasing

And man I'm so happy God changed it
