"WHAT DO YOU SEE" lyrics
(performed by nobigdyl., Mogli the Iceburg, Torey D'Shaun & Jon Keith)
Out on a limb, out on my own, out in the world
Startin' to see things are more simple at home
Maybe I've been up too long, maybe my faith isn't strong
Maybe my bias is wrong, maybe my bias is wrong
Maybe I'm cooked, maybe I'm finished, maybe I'm foolish
Maybe I'm Paul, maybe I'm Peter, maybe I'm Judas
Maybe my bias is wrong, maybe my bias is wrong
Maybe my bias was wrong, maybe my bias was wrong
Maybe I've gone and I've swept too much under the rug
Maybe I'm closer to things that I hate than the things that I love
Maybe I put too much stock in the things that I touch and I see
Maybe I'm blind through the forest while constantly cuttin' down trees
Maybe I'm passive and reckless the way I've been dealin' with sin
Maybe deep down in my heart I'm still itchin' to do it again
Maybe convenience feels better than honestly countin' the cost
Maybe my arrogance makin' a mockery out of the cross
Look in my eyes, what do you see?
When you think of God, do you think of me? (Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
Why do I edit my flaws so I can look perfect to folk?
Why do I compare myself to people who I do not know?
Why is you lookin' at me like you ain't seen a human before?
Why is you lookin' at me like God ain't been seein' your thoughts?
Why is you lookin' at me like your life ain't already been—
I look into my reflection and then saw that I'm sheddin' my skin
I slither out of correction in order to do it again
Father asked me for perfection, I said that I'm only human
When it's my time for collection, I hold you to every cent
Hypocrite, maybe my bias was imminent
My mother bit from the apple, so maybe it came from my lineage
My brother killed his own brother, the cycle continues, it's infinite
Cain spill the blood of an innocent, uppin' the stick is no different
Dave took the love of an innocent, uppin' the stick is no different
Jake turned the women to enemies, uppin' the stick is no different
Every "no" to the Father is death to the one who's committin' it
Wrestled with God in my anger, and ended up limpin' on ligaments
I get it, and I had enough, God
You say that I set myself up as a judge, God? Above G—
I need a God that can destroy my body in infinite hell
'Cause that mean His grace and mercy is infinite to me as well
I need a God who can—
—know me way better than I know myself (Myself)
'Cause I see myself in the pulpit, I see myself in a cell (A cell)
I saw myself on the Forbes List, blessings is rainin', I'm well (I'm well)
I saw myself on the corner, my body is all I could sell
I saw myself in a movie, I'm flyin', I'm wearin' a cape (A cape)
I saw myself in the past, I put eleven million in graves (Graves)
I see myself in the quiet, I see myself in the fame (Fame)
I see myself in revival, I see me cursin' Your name (Name)
I see me clutchin' my Bible, I see me coppin' a gun (Brrah)
I see my thoughts, and they wild, I think you wanna be done (Done)
I saw me killin' my child, I saw myself on the run
I saw me takin' my life, I just can't see myself in Your Son
What's the cost? Pay the fee, we all involved, to say the least
You know the stars, planted the seed, look at it all, what do you see?
What do you see, yeah? What do you see, yeah?
What do you see, yeah? What do you see, yeah?
What do you see, yeah? What do you see, yeah?
What do you see, yeah? What do you see, yeah?
