[Opening Monologue: Joel Osteen]
Nothing happens by accident,
God is directing every one of our steps
That means if a friend does us wrong,
If we go through a setback,
If we lose a loved one,
We can either embrace that change
And God will use it to take us higher,
Or we can resist it and we'll end up getting stagnant
[Chorus: Captain Ash]
I watch my life fade,
See slowly I migrate,
Teen life chapters all melting away,
I know I will return,
And some things may have changеd,
If some things stays the same,
It's mеant to be always
[Verse: Captain Ash]
How many beats can I make until I write a full song,
How many songs can I write until you all sing along,
How many songs will I sing until I get my first hit
How many hits can I take until I finally fall
See my life is just wrong
Don’t know where I belong
Feels like I'm stuck in loop
Of where my writing is wrong
Copying from other songs
Just not being myself,
Not caring for my own health,
See I'm just thinking of wealth
Cause in the future
I know that nobody paying my rent
But just me and myself
But when I get that wealth
I notice I'm still alone
No one calling my phone
Someone call frank and tell him
To bring back sierra Leone
Maybe time will tell
Why do I feel like hell
My emotions are floating
All you niggas are joking
But see you can't laugh well,
Because your lungs bad from smoking
Fights I fought are not physical
Yeah I know I'm not lyrical
But my knowledge is biblical
Always depending on God
To help me perform a miracle
All these situations been in,
I find it very difficult
It takes minimal spiritual critical moments
To help me decide if I'm winning
All my wrongs what I'm binning
Turn to the light no more sinning
Made my path on my own
I know it's cold and alone
One day I'll find the place I fit in and know I belong
For now I'll continue move forward in the hope that I grow
AYO
[Chorus: Captain Ash & Jess Hobs]
I watch my life fade,
See slowly I migrate,
Teen life chapters all melting away,
I know I will return,
And some things may have changed,
If some things stay the same,
It's meant to be always
I watch my life fade,
See slowly I migrate,
Teen life chapters all melting away,
I know I will return,
And some things may have changed,
If some things stay the same,
It's meant to be always
I watch my life fade, (always, be always)
See slowly I migrate,
Teen life chapters all melting away, (be always, be always)
I know I will return, (always, be always)
And some things may have changed,
If some things stay the same,
It's meant to be always
[Closing Monologue: Joel Osteen]
I wanna talk to you today about embracing change. One thing is certain, change is inevitable. People change, jobs change, styles change even seasons change. And God has designed us to need change but so many people fight it.
They hold on to the old because they're familiar. It's what they're used to; they're comfortable
If were not careful, we'll get suck in a rut to where were not growing, were not stretching, not using the potential on the inside. That's one reason God sends change, he won't allow us to stay stuck
And sometimes, the very things that we fight against, the very things we that we think are trying to pull us down is actually the hand of God trying to push us into a new season
