[intro: elias enniss]
god lately despite
all i have to do
i all i am doing
and all i will do
i don’t feel equipped
i don’t feel worthy
and compared to you
i just feel minimal

[verse 1: elias enniss]
thus far i been searching for words
so long i’ll be leaving this world
all this just to be in my third
all this just to be with the lord

i’m practicing often but not enough
i pray for my coffin to be a bluff
i pray for my roommates and all of my enemies
lord strike them down or put your terror in me

it’s been a long time since i picked up the pen
it feels like it’s often i visit again
the words of my past and the thoughts of my sin
how i wanted you but would go and pretend

like i had everything together
even when i wasn’t conversating bout the weather
even though it wasn’t like i didn’t want what’s right
even though i loved you i betrayed you even better

and now i’m back with another relentless of effort
back to where i’m feeling stuck in this desert
back to what i know and back to what i love
if i love it so much then why is it failing

back to what i thought was right from beginnings
back to what i should have known from my winnings
back to the gospel and to the holy one who died on the cross forgave us for all of our sinning
it’s true

[hook: elias enniss]
how’d i ever go without you
how’d i ever live without two
now everything i do

points to how i’m feeling like i’m lost
seems like i could never pay the cost
god it’s you

covering the worries of this world
listen to our beckons so absurd
yes, it’s you

but lately despite all your glory i’m cynical
how come my efforts of late feel so minimal

[verse 2: elias enniss]
this is a different story
the story of a brother
and what it is
to seemingly give up everything you have

is this what it is to give up a dream
i love you and gave you my everything
from 3rd grade street games
to real pads and neck sprains
i suited up and fell in love with the game
at 12 yrs. old i had the biggest of dreams

till coach yelled out oklahoma
backs to the ground wait till the whistle blow
here we go i went headfirst

god let me not be paralyzed
that’s when i saw my sinful parasites

from there my game would change
despite my tight grip
my aspirations somehow seemed to slip

transferring schools just to stay afloat
single mom guess that’s how it goes

pray my sk!ll would one day pay the bills
but high school ball wouldn’t climb those hills

in fact, despite my accolades i remained offer less
with no bets and no steps, i felt hopeless

i’d be lyin’ if i said i was happy
they’ll catch me wiling cause my hair is nappy
i’ll end up just another kid on the block
even so i’ll be clingin’ to god

i took off anyway
made it to a d1

transferred out faster
to play another d1

here i am some years later
feelin’ like a failure
just fighting for a degree

to what degree must i love you for my dreams to pay off
this ain’t how it’s supposed to be

so lately
i’ll tell you how i feel

lately despite all your glory i’m cynical
how come my efforts of late feel so minimal

they do
they do

how come
how come i can’t back that up with the truth
the truth is

despite my failure i still have your love
apart my shortcomings i have your love
apart from music i still have your love
apart from football i still have your love

it’s true
it’s true
yet i still feel it

[hook: elias enniss]
oh, it’s true
how’d i ever go without you
how’d i ever live without two
now everything i do

points to how i’m feeling like i’m lost
seems like i could never pay the cost

god it’s you
covering the worries of this world
listen to our beckons so absurd
yes, it’s you
it’s you

and lately despite all my failures
i’m cynical
maybe cause compared to you
i am minimal

minimal
minimal

[outro: elias enniss]
and if you take nothing else from this album
let it be that compared to god
we are
minimal
