TobyMac - Lose My Soul (with Kirk Franklin and Mandisa) текст песни

(TobyMac)
Father God, I ain't playin' in your hands.
Help me to stay that way through all life's demands
'Cause they chip and they nag and they pull at me
And every little thing, I make up my mind to be.
Like I'm 'a be a daddy who's in the mix,
And I'm 'a be a husband who stays legit,
And I pray that I'm an artist who rises above
The road that is wide and filled with self-love.
Everything that I see draws me,
Though it's only in you that I can truly see
That it's a feast full of eyes, a loveload of purpose,
And I'm a little kid at a three ring circus.

I don't wanna gain the whole world and lose my soul.
(Don't wanna walk away; lemme hear the people say)
I don't wanna gain the whole world and lose my soul.

(Kirk Franklin)
The poparazzi flashes and they think that it's you,
But they don't know that who you are is not what you do.
Sure, we get a twisted when we peek at the charts,
But the only part that was from the start was your heart.
You a pimp? Hustler? Tell me what's your title.
America has many stars and we call them idols
Say idol. Though we teach prosperity,
The first thing to prosper should be inside of me.
Not because of 22s on the range
Which Christ can arrange, we said yes, now we change.
Not the same, even though I met a fall,
Since I got that call, no more Saul. Now I'm Paul.

I don't wanna gain the whole world and lose my soul.
(Don't wanna walk away; lemme hear the people say)
I don't wanna gain the whole world and lose my soul.
(Don't wanna walk away; lemme hear the people say
Don't wanna walk away, walk away, walk away)

(Mandisa)
How do I sense the tie that's rising?
Desensitizing me from livin' in the light of eternity, eternity.
How do I sense the tie that's rising?
It's hypnotizing me from livin' in the light of eternity. Tell me:
How do I sense the tie that's rising?
Desensitizing me from livin' in the light,
Livin' in the light of eternity.

I don't wanna gain the whole world and lose my soul.
I don't wanna gain the whole world and lose my soul.
I don't wanna gain the whole world and lose my soul.
I don't wanna gain the whole world and lose my soul.
I don't wanna gain the whole world and lose my soul.
I don't wanna gain the whole world and lose my soul.
Lord forgive us for what we do
As the things of this world fight for our love
As our eyes are open and on you.
