letra de high places - lou chikuni

[verse 1]
i built this life on all these hopes and dreams
and now it seems that disillusionment’s my portion, hear my plea
’cause i proceeded with the offerings
i gave you what you wanted, please
explain to me how painfully i ain’t received
the blessing that i paid to see
i thought you claimed to be
all i need, you made me think
i could ask for absolutely anything like
hey it’s me, one of your favorites, we
obey, pray, whatever you say
we straight up do it, now i’m sitting feeling foolish
i believed you, i look stupid
what a joke i was cool with
sacrificing whatever price you liked as i pursued it
the one thing that my heart desired, you told me to do it
ask any mountain to move with faith and you said you would move it
what i miss, where’s the blueprint
some people getting all that they want
i’m hurting while they live like they won it, the jackpot
but when i ask them, yo, how do i get it
they say, boy, you should just go and sow the seed and then just ask god
injuries plagued me, playing this league of faith, each 24
my achilles heel might make me leave the game
i thought i’d never be again in this position
where wishing for things would leave me empty and feeling the deepest pain
how far truly i’m willing to go to be given what i could get from your hands
i would put anything up on this altar, i don’t need a reason just gimme the plan
i would mix light with darkness
if i believe it would profit
drink a concoction
put my own blood in a coffin
what? huh?
what is this line that i’m crossing
’cause of the god that i’m chasing?
it don’t sound like jesus at all
it sound like abomination
my heart manufactured an idol
and that is the god i been chasing
i put it above everything
way up in the highest of places

[hook]
but they sacrificed to baal in the high places
forgot who rules the world in the high places
they gave away their hearts in the high places
they built their own gods in the high places
they sacrificed to baal in the high places
forgot who rules the world in the high places
they gave away their hearts in the high places
they built their own gods in the high places

[verse 2]
if heaven is my throne and the earth is my footstool
then you worship me first before anything though it looks cool
it’s nothing in comparison, the notion’s truly arrogant
that i don’t know what’s good for you
when good’s part of my character
the act of carrying the cross should magnify me in your heart
but yet you talk like you don’t understand i took the wrath you ought
nothing else could ever cost more when i absorbed the price
it took to save your soul, that was the goal, it is the greatest prize
nothing can give you more than i can
the gift of a life that’s eternal’s worth more than driving a jag
that baby you wanna have, that husband to be your man
that woman you wanna marry one day and hold in your hands, man
whatever you asking it’s after me, that’s it
the pattern’s the same that made adam question if his best interest mattered
he didn’t trust my commands and now the disaster
of sin is wreaking havoc, but be glad that’s not the final chapter
i ought to be king in the hearts of my people
you’ve gotta be kidding if you think that idol is more than me
israel did the same thing when they worshiped to baal and not follow me
calling these idols their gods on the hills and the tops of their mountains, a mockery
want to me to save them when they realize that these gods don’t have power, hypocrisy
nothing is higher, i’m the provider with power to save
don’t let them lie to you, no, jehovah jireh the name
i gave an l to the grave
there isn’t a place that is high enough that you can climb up to reach me
but i am right there when you love me with all of your heart and you’re bended on each knee
