[F] Dear God, thank you for [Gm] leading me down this path.
I'm thankful for [Bb] the man that I am.
[Eb] At first, [F] I didn't understand.
Now [Gm] I see the tribulations that I faced were [Bb] all part of the plan.
I tried to [F] walk away, I wasn't whole.
You filled [Gm] a gap inside my heart and let me know I had [Bb] a soul.
I was bleeding on [Eb] the inside, [F] nobody could see.
Then [Gm] I looked into the mirror, he was staring back [Bb] at me.
Now I gotta say, I was lost, [F] where'd I go?
Now I'm here, [Gm] glory road.
Child of God, not a sheep, [Bb] lost my way, came on home.
[Eb] To think [F] the world was cold and I was [Gm] fighting all alone.
Until I made that call and heard [Bb] his voice and touch right through that phone.
All my pain, [F] all my stress, added to [Gm] the dumb neglect.
I used to take my burdens and [Bb] disperse them around to all my friends.
[Eb] Anger and [F] frustration was a means, but [Gm] never threw an end until you picked me up and took [Bb] that weight.
Right above my chest, a child of God.
[F] Nothing more, [Gm] nothing less.
Born sinner, not by choice, [Bb] but also born blessed.
I [Eb] could feel the pressure [F] building up and choking at [Gm] my neck.
Then God told me take a rest and he [Ab] would handle [Eb] all the rest.
I'm not [F] a stranger to evil, I've done [Gm] wrong to people, I've told lies, but [Bb] in his eyes I am still [Eb] equal.
My [F] words weaponize, are, [Gm] save lives, they lethal and take off in [Bb] the sky.
Spread wings like eagle, my light's [F] a open book.
It's something for [Gm] the world to see, people watching what I do, [Bb] so I'm careful of words I speak.
Came up as [F] a child, I never thought that this was [Gm] what I'd be, but now that it's my path, I swear [Bb] to God that I won't fail to lead.
Speaking [F] positivity with every [Gm] single breath I breathe.
Ranking up to God, I'm on [Bb] my hands and down on my knees.
[Eb] Asking him [F] to grant me with the strength in this world of greed.
[Gm] To be the person that will have [Bb] a shoulder when they need to lean.
Promises [F] I made to you, God, yes I will keep.
[Gm] May not be who they want, [Bb] but I'm making what they need.
[Eb] Rose from [F] the dirt, in the middle of [Gm] the concrete.
I'm bloomed to a tree to [Bb] create and disperse seeds.
Impact [F] is what I breed, won't fall [Gm] for anything.
I answer to God, I [Bb] don't answer to no human being.
[Eb] I am not [F] a slave, I am not the devil [Gm] nor a fiend.
I'm a child of God, just [Bb] like you, we on the same team.
Grab my [F] hand, stand up, I [Gm] won't leave you.
You need me just [Bb] as much as I need you.
[Eb] Fight these battles [F] with me, I promise that you will see through and [Gm] stand tall over things [Bb] beneath you.
Child of God, he [F] is I and you are him.
[Gm] To see God, we must first [Bb] look within.
Nowhere else, [F] no place, no human, [Gm] no race, just us and faith till [Bb] we meet again.
It's that simple.
[F] We're all created in [Gm] God's image.
[Bb] Come on, we see the light.
