letra de make you proud - testify-music
yeah i understand what you’re saying
but… it’s just hard
i mean i don’t know what i wanna do with my life
[verse #1]
sometimes i feel like i should quit rapping
do what my momma says
and get myself a job that pays
i mean, who really listens to my music anyway?
according to the numbers no one does
but it’s all good cause
lately i’ve been doing some thinking about my career
should i just pack it up and leave this dream behind?
people around me say i’m great, but i have a feeling there just being kind
who am i really?
i’m just a starving artist with no income
that dreams of walking across that giant stage
but that’s not gonna take care, of my parents in their old age
or even get me a place i can call home someday
maybe i should just focus on my studies, and apply my sk!lls to my grades
since there’s no reason, to continue down this path
i’m packing up my bags mom
hope you’re proud of me, i’m done rapping
no more music on the book of psalms
[chorus]
i got a question…
what would you do to make somebody happy? (let’s see)
would you change everything about you? (probably)
would you sacrifice your self-righteous pride? (preach)
would give up your dreams and learn to make do?
see at the end of day, we live to please others
but instead of trying to please the crowd
we should desire to make the king proud
reject the norm and praise him out loud
lord we only live to make you proud
[verse #2]
my dad was always there supporting me in the crowd
but i could tell he wanted me to pick a job with benefits
he never really said it out loud, but i caught on to the subtle hints
truthfully i’ve been put on this planet to lead people to the king
so whether i choose to rap or sing, it’s a way for me to speak to my peeps
the lord has spoken to me through my dreams and visions
depicting me as a teacher, who loves to encourage others through relationship, and not religion
god i’m so confused
i’ve been given a choice
i can silence my voice just to make my dad happy
or i can continue to do what i’ve been doing since two-ten
this decision is hard and bitter sweet like that medicine
and i don’t know which one to pick
see i wanna make him proud, and if that means i have to quit
then i’ll drop the mic and won’t commit
leave my ambitions and my goals behind
[chorus]
[verse #3]
yo, i’m thinking i should follow my heart
i live to make him famous, and music is the best way to reach kids
non-believers say that i’m crae b/c i chose to live my life, based upon christ
they don’t understand, this life is not my own, i was bought with a price
and i intend to follow jesus and give him my life
“but testify i don’t understand?
why would you give up your life for one man?”
i admit there was a time when doubt clouded my judgment
and all i wanted to do was party and be content
but he came and brought me out of my pathetic state
so i could spread the text recorded from his predetermined date
when he was nailed upon that cross, to change our very fate!
so yeah, i would give up everything for my mighty king
“someday i hope you’ll able to put all your trust in him
otherwise your future might be kinda grim”
ya feel me?
[chorus]
[ending]
lord we live to make you proud (x2)
reject the norm and praise you out loud
