rap song.

I was having my devos this afternoon and I was reading all these verses about being lost and found again. It reminded me what it was like to be lost in my sin, without hope, then to have God come and pick me to be one of His children. Lot's of times when I get to really thinking about something, Ill just start writing about it, so here's what came out today. i guess its kind of in song form...


haha sorry its sooo long.

p.s. my baby sis can rap prettay good, and my other sis can sing so hopefully sometime we'll actually finish and record it. :)


This world is worthless and crap
Just like this attempt at a rap
Seems when you look around you
There’s to many choices to choose
Its like its life or it death
Yet we rarely choose best
Cuz the good stuff looks dull
And the bad stuff looks full
Its like its veggies and candy
You kno ull pick what looks dandy
But it ends up all hollow
Consequences to swallow
See the sweetness never lasts
The happiness’ pass
And ur left at the beginning
Thinking, and signing

If I only knew the way, outta this place
Im so tired a frayed, I want a happiness that stays
And a rock that I can lean on, that doesn’t melt away
A rock (a rock)
That doesn’t melt away

Yea I’ve been there before
And since then I’ve failed ever more
No matter how much I work
At my door failure lurks
In my own strength I try
At success I really pry
I pretend that I’m strong
But for true strength I long
Cuz inside Im falling
For help Im screaming and calling
But my friends they don’t answer
Nor do those promising pleasures
I’m at a place of desperation
I need resuscitation
Who will take me in?
Who in this world can save me from my sin?

Could there even be a way, outta this place?
Cuz I’m so tired and frayed, I want a happiness that stays
And a rock that I can lean on, that doesn’t melt away
A rock (a rock)
That doesn’t melt away

My face is filthy and smudged
I feel like on with the mud
I scan all faces for pity
But none even see me
I get to the end of the line
Hope is gone in my mind
Yet after all those blank stares,
I see expression that cares
The man smiles at me,
And says, “daughter, you’re free”
It’s then I start to realize
The burden that I’ve tried
To carry on my own,
From my back is now gone
The man takes it to a tree
Where He hangs and dies for me.
I look on and start to cry
Realization floods my life
It’s my savior, now I see
I’ve treated him as enemy
Yet He’s faithful to forgive
So eternally I can live

Thank God for making a way, outta this place
I’m still tired and frayed, but I have a happiness that stays
And a rock that I will lean on, that doesn’t melt away
A rock (a rock)
That doesn’t melt away.

So this rock I will lean on
Only by His strength Ill stay strong
When temptations come my way
I resist them, by His grace
Cuz he’s given me eyes to see
How worthless this world can be
And how pointless the pleasures
When He offers me treasures
I still fail and sin
But I just make that trip again
Back to the cross
Where my burden is lost
And His mercy runs free
To every sinner like me
I was once lost and blind
But He was merciful and kind
In His arms now I see
I will stay eternally
