kennedy betts - a letter lyrics

a letter

this isn’t how it was suppose to be
we were suppose to roam the land in peace
we were suppose to till the earth
we were suppose to let the wicked disperse
but it’s our fault because we sinned first
now we’re all under one big curse
stuck in these bodies, until we’re
back to the dirt from where we were made
stuck in our minds like we’re lost in a maze
lost in the dark like we’re stuck in a cave
looking for the light cause we’ve been depraved
where is your soul? this world is a grave
we’re just some men who need to be saved

aren’t you tired? you keep moving your feet
you keep walking, every step more incomplete
too filled with pride, you refuse to say “i’m weak”
so you cover it up with drugs and booze, convinced parties are your peak
you wake up the next morning feeling so empty
but everyone’s doing it and they’ve got to accept me
you say “i wanna quit, but the world tempts me”
listen to this truth so you can be set free
you’re a slave to your sin, but don’t want to admit it
that’s why you keep relapsing every time you try and quit it
this is just the beginning, i’m not even close to finished
and yes, this all comes back to god the father
if you don’t want to listen then don’t even bother
this a battle for your soul, i’m pointing you safety
once i mention jesus christ people start to hate me
for it has been written: “if they have persecuted me, they will also persecute you”
so i take what i’ve been shown and i put it on youtube
writing this is the only way that i can get through to you
i’m not speaking for myself, i speak because god loves you
this is for the lost sheep, the ones who hear the shepherd’s voice
the ones who feel like they’re losing a game without a choice
you’re chained to your l-sts and thus you don’t feel whole
you keep feeding your flesh, its eating at your soul
we don’t realize it, but we consume our self
we judge ourselves on the inside and project it onto everyone else
we see the world upside down, we’re caught in a snare
we’re in the devil’s trap, it’s easy to not care
our selfishness takes over and we start thinking “life’s just not fair, i’m gonna do what i want”
most men see a woman and stare right at her b-tt
and we think it’s okay to watch as she struts
but this is the beginning of the corruption of our minds
teaching our bodies to l-st all the time
now you’re living in a prison right between your eyes
you are so asleep, but you fail to realize
the pain cuts deep, but it’s covered up in fears and lies
so you run with the crowd, chasing money, clothes, and hoes
watering your life with ways of the world, but nothing ever grows
but guess what? satan will use anyone as long as blood flows
and if it doesn’t, well that’s even better
that’s another soul in his pocket, another body without god’s sweater
he’s k!lling you from the inside, making you feel even deader
this is not religious rap, the mystery of life is within this letter
and this is my letter, to the world
and anyone who can hear it
i pray god opens your ears so you listen and not fear it
when someone mentions jesus christ, don’t run, but come near it
learn to feel the difference between your flesh and his spirit
because this world is not all darkness, it’s not all pain
it’s not all empty
it’s not all shame
eat the bread of the living god
he knows your name
he knows your mind, and
he knows your heart
it’s k!lling him that you keep trying to be apart
he sees you’re drowning
and he’s holding out his hand
please just take it, even if you don’t understand
i know it’s hard to see, but he does have a plan
just ask for forgiveness and repent will all belief
he’ll pull you from the water
he’ll save you from the deep
he’ll bring you to the sh-r- and give you that relief
he’ll fill you with his spirit
and fill you with his peace
you’ll breathe pure air for the first time in your life  he’ll take away your anger, he’ll take away the strife  he’ll take away your hate, and fill you up with light
but please, crucify your selfish ways, and give your life to christ
