My eyes froze on the future but stuck in real time/ a cup of water was four dollars but they paid a dime/ we're out here sweating from heat/ some brothers hoping to die/ the spirit's collected the well and left the river dry/ one family and famine all connected together/ no drugs or alcohol to help you cope with the weather/ and the season never changes as humidity ills/ no cure for you cancer/ no liquids or pills/ remember vibing on thoughts of what they said I could have/ but I didn't believe/ I couldn't see what Heaven had/ I'm stuck in the misery/ this palace of pain/ and I can't pray any longer for the comfort of rain/ all I hear are loud screams and it never seems to stop/ nasty smells in the air/ like something died then rot/ I can't escape from this place/ and I'm stuck forever now/ I know my turn is coming/ I wanna escape but how?

(break for chorus)

I broke unleavened bread/ drank the blood the Lord shed/ so now I know that I'm new/ and now I'm feeling it to/ no hurt or pain that I feel/ cured from when I was ill/ and I'm provided with real love direct from God's will/ I walk the streets of gold/ never am I feeling old/ my soul belongs to God I'm sold and living out my happiness/ my dreams are now reality/ floating on this cloud I'll be praising God Almighty knowing this will never end/ there's people on the other street empty and hurting inside/ they couldn't capture any honey from the kings bee hive/ they got a drip and got stung/ and couldn't breathe from their lungs/ their eyes closed from the Son/ and now we're having the fun/ they had a chance to be free/ and we tried to help them see/ but it would never be 'cause they thought that we were crazy/ but lately I know that they ain't feeling it now/ and at the end to the feet of God is where they'll bow down

People thinking they can live in the belly of the beast/ and escape for an hour to get a part of God's feast/ you can't live on both sides/ you're either for God or against/ you can't buy your way to Heaven with some dead presidents/ and some will say they love God but never give their soul/ others give it up but still they live outta control/ sometimes I wonder my judgment/ it's kind of scary to think/ but it's peaceful I think I'm forever in God's piggy bank/ and to the Christian believers I want to Romans 15/ and stand united together as we praise and we sing/ glory to the Most High/ we'll soon be in your presence/ we'll spread our wings and fly home like a dove of a pheasant/ I say to all choose Christ or be abandoned by God/ but most listen 'cause they think the why we're living is odd/ and yeah it's hard to live for God/ and when your vision gets blurred/ just grab a Bible/ read the ink that's on the pages of His Word
