(Chorus)

Freedom ,the power, the glory.  forever and ever this is my story ..singing of freedom  our testimony. Singing Forever amen

(Verse)

Back and forth to church

Pops was broken

tryna find god

See where hes from

It wasn’t gangsta

So they’d hide god

His father wasn’t there

Moms was poor

But she tried

Bible said that you’d provide

So when they starved

They felt you lied God

It’s hard to trustem

When all you’ve gotten is hope

It’s hard to dream

When all you’ve gotten is No’s

And The ones

that said they got you

Seems all they got you

Was lows

So you end up in them streets

To get you out of them holes

Now you the bad guy

Running through Harlem

With the bag fly

Trying not to end

Like centrals last 5

Pushing product

A product of your environment

You Take a risk

Or you gon die in it

14 years old when they took you

From your moms

Now you out in Hollis

Tryna cope without no bonds

Ya Unc and auntys home

Gave you somewhere you belong

And showed you through the wrongs

He can build you to be strong

You finally get your mind right

You working doing better things

And found yourself a lady that you love

You thinking wedding rings

running all through queens

Gold rope

bagging everything

Found a love in rapping

Now it’s shows

The futures bettering

Its crazy

How he chose to dim your light

Before the start

You went to pick up mom

A **** shot you in the dark

The doctors said you dying

Cut your foot off

That’s the spark

Now it’s crutches

They was rushing

Made a choice that left you stumped

Now it’s socks all in your sneakers

Tying strings around your stump

You won a pot of gold

And People acting like it’s luck

Like You ain’t almost die

And have a doctor saying gang green

found out he was wrong

Just to gain green

But cripple from the same thing

The thoughts would leave you nauseas

Now you thinking hard

And moving cautious

And the shooter ain’t been found

That shit is taunting

It took you losing your balance

Feeling down and feeling worthless

To give yourself to God

You found your stride

Inside your purpose

At your lowest

When you found out I’d be here

Guess God used me

Just to shadow all your fears
