(We're always choosing misery because we haven't planned to say no to that second helping, or that drink, or that look in the magazine, or getting out of bed in the morning and so we surrender in the moment to the God of the....)
Coulda' been wise, shoulda' listened to the prophet
But ya lil' homie told you you should try it 'fore you knock it
And you did it, you got wit it, and it felt so microscopic
That's until you tried to quit it and you found you couldn't stop it
Slave now addicted to the rush. (to the rush)
It's what you crave now, cannot get enough
You a Christian on a mission and that battle here is tough
And the matter that you grapple with is battlin' with lust. (I know)
Just took another peek into the magazines, (magazines)
Dipped another finger in the Vaseline, (Vaseline)
Flesh was on fire, gave it gasoline
And this was just a battle for ya average teen, (haha)
And every human wit a beatin' heart
Every Christian struggles but we pressin' just to meet the mark
Supernatural powers runnin' through us cause we need the spark
But can determine if we Spider Man or Peter Parker. (haha)
And I'm confused now, which one is it?
Losers? Are we Winners? Are we Saints or are we sinners?
And I'm tryna' figure out if we victims or we victors
But I guess it all depends on what you cookin' up for dinner. (I'm gone)
This power's runnin' through my veins. (I'm gone)
I can change if I wanna change. (I'm gone)
Temptations drivin' me insane. (I'm gone)
Welcome to the Hunger Games
They say you is what you eatin'
And you really love God, you've been shining like a beacon
And you solid, you got knowledge, you been walkin' in your freedom
And you faithful through the week but you be fightin' on the weekends
I know the Christian life's a struggle now
Friday night is poppin' and the city life is buzzin' now
That's about the time you used to call out for another round
Now you gotta choose between life and the underground
Feel like you owe it to yourself, don't you?
Sin is magnetic (shhh) when it pulls ya
Tryna pull away but it keeps pushin
And you want it bad, but you know it's poison
You like, "My God I feel so powerless!"
Crying out to Heaven sayin, "Jesus I know I'm a mess."
Looking at the hours left, Jesus get me outta this
Cause you know we losin if we try to fight in our own strength
Screaming: GOD SAVE ME, GOD SAVE ME!
I know I gotta die daily, die daily
If I need deliverance from gluttony and fine ladies
I know I'm winnin' with the strength that God gave me. (I'm gone)
This power's runnin' through my veins. (I'm gone)
I can change if I wanna change. (I'm gone)
Temptations drivin' me insane. (I'm gone)
Welcome to the Hunger Games
(Uh) Yea you winning man, you winnin' man
Victory in Jesus sends you strength into ya inner man
Yea we give em Jesus when we playing down in WinterJam
Cause we want to help them to come up with a preventive plan. (Yea)
Preparation is the key
I'm on it, on my diet just the make it through the week
And man I know that all my strength is gon' be based on what I eat
So then if I deny my belly then I'm faithful when I'm weak
I'm gone.......
