"Stay Close" lyrics
Ay, two thousand E-S-T
Your mindset more important than where He takin' you
If you act toothless then all you can eat is baby food
He gives direction but if you too scared to make a move
You can't even eat at the table that He prepared for you
Basic truth, walk by faith I got that Jesus groove
I realized that my pride is what I need to lose
It's hard to be a god when you break your own rules
Don't speed nah, I rather cruise take it slow though
When you driving reckless it's easy to miss your exit
All this time invested I just been seeking His presence
I don't got to stress it His spirit got me protected
Yuh, yuh, yuh, gotta stay close
I can't get away, gotta stay close
I can't get away, gotta stay close
No, I can't get away, gotta stay close
I can't get away, gotta stay close
World cold but I got that heat inside of me
Everybody searchin' for that missin' piece
Since I got connected I don't never wanna leave
I know who You created me to be
Yuh, ay, used to look myself in the mirror like who am I
Try'na be like everybody else but I couldn't vibe
Knew somethin' greater was calling on the inside
But I was switchin' sides
I didn't know there was a price
I couldn't make up my mind
I prayed to God every night
Like please show me a sign
How you gon' tell me what's wrong when you don't really know my life
My feelings had me enticed, I fell in love with a lie
Used to live for the moment as long as the feeling fire
But when I made it the crib thoughts are runnin' my mind
Kept on asking why why felt this emptiness inside
Tried to fill it with the pride, tried to fill it with the sex
Tried to fill it with the drugs, tried to fill it with masturbation
I was at the point I couldn't take it
I was saved but I was playin'
Only try'na to please myself, and everybody else
Wasn't 'til I took the time to see what God said
I had to keep it a hundid'
It's hard to hear when you're running from the help that's comin'
By giving my life away got another life in exchange
I don't ever wanna go too far away, gotta stay close
We goin' up, gotta stay close
As long as I'm with You, gotta stay close
I ain't goin' down (stay close)
As long as You around, stay close
I'm feelin' brand new, new, new
With you I can't lose
Show me how to move
I will trust in You
When you driving reckless it's easy to miss your exit
All this time invested I just been seekin' His presence
I don't got to stress it His spirit got me protected
Yuh, yuh, yuh, I gotta stay close
(Away) I can't get away
Your mindset more important than where He takin' you
If you act toothless then all you can eat is baby food
He gives direction but if you too scared to make a move
You can't even eat at the table that He prepared for you
Basic truth, walk by faith I got that Jesus groove
I realized that my pride is what I need to lose
It's hard to be a god when you break your own rules
Don't speed nah, I rather cruise take it slow though
When you driving reckless it's easy to miss your exit
All this time invested I just been seeking His presence
I don't got to stress it His spirit got me protected
Yuh, yuh, yuh, gotta stay close
I can't get away, gotta stay close
I can't get away, gotta stay close
No, I can't get away, gotta stay close
I can't get away, gotta stay close
World cold but I got that heat inside of me
Everybody searchin' for that missin' piece
Since I got connected I don't never wanna leave
I know who You created me to be
Yuh, ay, used to look myself in the mirror like who am I
