They say the mind is deceitful, then why you listen to it?

I'm not saying it's bad, I'm just saying watch what you thinking through it

Cause all the devil needs is for the door to be cracked open

Then he's back tryna attack and take your life homie

My mind can be a dangerous place

Try to stop myself from thinking the things that so

insane

Gotta keep my ear out for the voice that saved me, that made me what I am today

Gotta be aware of all the things around me

I was lost but then my Lord found me

My surroundings was full of temptation

The devil try to make me lose my patience

And I'm sure that I learned my lessons

Gotta stay away from evil and I count my blessings

Try to better my mind, heart and soul

Gon stand up to the devil and pray I don't fold

I've been trying to get my act together

Cause I'm always trying to change for the better

Cause I'ma get my mind together

And bet I finna get my life together

They say the mind is deceitful, then why you listen to it?

I'm not saying it's bad, I'm just saying watch what you thinking through it

Two wrongs don't make a right, so let's just get it right

Been fighting with myself from the morning to the night

Started to lie to myself, started to deprive myself

from the only thing that was keeping me from not dying myself

But at least I'm not like them, messed up and always going out

But that's why the mind is deceitful, because that's not what it's about

And even though I took a peek, I still ain't act on it

But that don't mean that you ain't really locked up in a trap, homie

People say they wanna change, but they keep on coming back

Probably stepping on some toes, yeah I know that's a fact

Then you tryna come back, tryna call out to the father

But this ain't for no lukewarm Christians, man don't even bother

Cause I've been in my game and I've been in my prime

And they say that they good when I know that they lying

You better change before you run out of time, before the trumpets blow and the body start flying

The devil be trying to get to my head, but I can't let it happen cause then I'll be dead

So I give all to the Letters in Red

So one day my name will be be read

They say the mind is deceitful, then why you listen to it?

I'm not saying it's bad, I'm saying just watch what you thinking through it

Cause all the devil needs is for the door to be cracked open

Then he's back tryna attack and take your life homie
