Single from the upcoming EP Which Way Is Up

lyrics

From religious to God free, I never knew that real belief was true. The one they called the King of Kings - he was nothing more than just a fluke. Apathy consumed my soul, that god was a nuisance - that god who said that life is free and sin's okay cause you're human. That god who said true freedom is limited to the walls of this church. That god who said you can never be whole just broken, sinful, and hurt. It was the voice of many pastors and Christians that echoed inside me - those words that people spoke into my soul buried deep down inside me. Church preaching hurt, speaking condemnation, scaring this child. Pushing me further down that lonely road, stranded, lost in the wild. And now it took some time in hell to find that I was desperate for saving. I fell down on my face in that humble place and my white flag was waving, I screamed, "God! If you're really there, then show your face and please listen. My life has not been holy but my heart is burning for wisdom. There's nothing left left, no selfishness, my life is yours, please take it!" I cannot live another day without Yahshua my Savior, so I proclaim - fear is never gonna hold me down, never gonna miss an opportunity to praise Him. My Daddy saved the world, I could never sing and shout for another Savior. My God and King, Yahweh is His Name. My heart is beating just to tell the world, "Your way has been made!" His heart is calling for the sons who refuse to live, so they live in pain. So lend your ears believe my words, come on ascend in praise! Our God is faithful - ain't no story in some ancient book. With eyes to see, you will find that His face is worth another faithful gaze, so look!

Yahweh, please tell me what to do. I once lived in sin and shame, afraid, impure, running from you. Hate drug me down, I was struggling to keep my head above water. Church said, "Believe in God, your life will change. Life comes from the Father." But God I never knew what you really went through to earn me your freedom. I never knew your face, never heard you speak until I received ya. Holy Ghost, my comforter. He came to show me some comfort. I used to cling to the world's comfort. All the while it was dragging me under, but then my Father said, "Boy you better wake up and notice. I will always be here instead, you had better look and see in this moment that now your flesh has shed. You can never be identified with sickness. Your incompletion is dead - you'll always be my true witness!" Now I'm transcending the sky, from the summit of the mountain of Zion. I'm soaring, flying high - these clouds are my throne that I'm high on. I'm ruling from the stars, I could never have imagined my destiny. All I see is Him, and all He sees is the best of me.

I'm a changed man!
My life is new I'm not the same man!
His Word is true it's not a vain scam!
Now everyday I celebrate Him!

My life is proof that You're the True King!
The One with Life that only Truth brings!
Up Here it's power like I've never seen!
Now and forever all of me sings, now we sing,
Hallelujah You're the True King!
