Keep Pushing (Protect Your Heart)

Hook

I know it gets crazy

I know it gets hard

But you gotta keep pushing

Protect your heart

If you fall get back up

Keep on moving don’t get stuck

In the cycle

That you hate so much

See my father is a great man

Through the tides and storms

Had a purpose

Alive through the Son's hand

sacrificed time

turned from his crimes

Corrected his pride

Opened my eyes

Give flowers where flowers due

Time don’t wait so better move

Gotta do what you said you’d do

Sun shines and the storm brews

You can gain many things

But there’s more to lose

Wisdom in the palm of thy hand

A curse on the souls

Who built on sand

So the waves came crashing

The wind was fierce

You could never imagine

That type of fear

That’s why we respect our elders

look how far they came

You ain’t half their age

Self medicate

Self deprivation

Can’t concentrate

Mental state racing

Hook

I know it gets crazy

I know it gets hard

But you gotta keep pushing

Protect your heart

If you fall get back up

Keep on moving don’t get stuck

In the cycle

That you hate so much

Verse 2

The people I look up to have families

My friends the cooked up crew have tragedy’s

Once upon a time

Praying for their lives

But Lord,

who is praying for me

Maybe someone can see

What it takes to be believe

To do more than you need

And Not live in deceit

See I’m struggling daily

Because I know I can do better

It’s super frustrating

Stress levels raging

Lustful heart chasing

All the time wasting

Difficulty: basic

But desire for change

Is just as strong as the pain

The hurt deep inside

I don't know how to face

Only knowing escape

Lock it under the base

Thank you Lord for this food

saying this every day

But is it enough to be thankful

To have gratitude

Cause I’m doing my best

On the path that I choose

Hook

I know it gets crazy

I know it gets hard

But you gotta keep pushing

Protect your heart

If you fall get back up

Keep on moving don’t get stuck

In the cycle

That you hate so much

Verse 3

All this pressure

I’m blessed to know sinners

Lucky to be loved

And cursed to know what sin is

We all sin

But some Love it more than Him

They choose themselves

But lose themselves within

Look around

Show me who you are

There’s many people in the world

And God knows the heart

It’s no wonder it’s what I find most difficult

To overcome

Could never run

From desires of flesh

my mind is overwhelmed

Jesus is distant

The spirit he whispers

I can see him reaching

I feel resistant

No time for preaching

I need repentance

It seems I’m reaping

The works of my flesh

Too much living on the fence

Dwelling on deep regrets

And I can’t think straight

So it brings more stress

But I don’t give up

I keep moving forward

It’s what I’ve always done

Since I heard him call me

Hook

I know it gets crazy

I know it gets hard

But you gotta keep pushing

Protect your heart

If you fall get back up

Keep on moving don’t get stuck

In the cycle

That you hate so much
