m.o.d [ministri of defence] - desperation lyrics

v.1
a lot of people are in frustration
because life is like a safe and they don’t know the combination
they’re looking for love in all the wrong places
i see discouraged faces amongst all the races
some are black, wait you’re right, some are white
some are prejudiced and some fight to unite
some are victims and some are criminals
some are out to use and some are sadly abused
some are filled with mental conflicts within
they can’t find a way out, the situation’s no+win
and some are working their fingers to the bone
just in order to eat, struggling to make ends meet
some are guilty and some are innocent
and some are doing time
and some are organizing organized crime
i thank god he is always on time
he’s never late coz the situation’s getting desperate

chorus:
desperation drove me to my knees
i cried
please lord won’t you help me
i know he heard my plea
coz when the way out i just could not see
i cried lord deliver me and
through his love he lifted me
v.2
i was down so low
did not know where to go
what to do
who to turn to
who to shout for
all i saw were closed doors to my afflictions
predilections
infections
beating, cheating, eating me out
i needed help
i was going off my head, i laid down in my bed
tried to dream away the wrong i done and said
but to my mistakes i would awakes
toe to toe, chin to chin, head to head
face to face i wrestled with them
i struggled but i just could not get them down
at that time i knew i had to turn my life around
the problems that i had were mad
really bad
they made me well and truly sad
i wondered if i could be glad again
my life was full of sin, i just could not win
i felt such a shame for all my loved ones i’d been hurting
friends deserting
danger flirting around it
spread it on my face coz my soul it was so sick
v.3
no joke, you’re looking at a man that was broken
no word spoken couldn’t even ease my aching heart
sitting on my bed yearning for a new start
but from my sinful ways i knew i had to part
the deepest part of me was seeking for serenity
i couldn’t get no peace
and yet i knew the answer was in front of me
i thank the lord i weren’t too blind to see
it was not crack cocaine, alcohol or even weed
and yet even in my pride i just could not hide how i felt inside
you could see it blatantly in my weary eyes
there were nuff times i even felt to die
locked up in my room, crying out my eyes
no lie, darkness felt like night in my life
i could not see the light now
i wondered how i lost my sight
i did not want to be insecure no more
there weren’t no exit door
i couldn’t take no more and so i hit the floor

v.4
so if you’re feeling strife, living fast life
trying to get away
let me encourage you with these few words i say
why?
coz i found a slip lane
the lord jesus christ of nazareth is his name
he’s the way
he don’t play with my life, it ain’t no game
ever since i gave it up to him friend i’ve never been the same
i’ve been changed since he took away my sin
and my shame and my blame
my misery and pain
and when devastating situations i was facing
seemed to be unchanging and frustrating
causing mental constipation
he gave me strength to lift my head up
no longer fed up
like the lame man in the book, i took my bed up
and walked into the sunset though i still deal with the real
but it don’t compare nothing with the peace that i now feel
so yo now you know what got my life all turned around
i was lost but found with my face down on the ground because…
