Cornerstone

[Verse 1]

I see ya watchin'

Examinin' my manoeuvres

Grab a bottle and knowing the calculated conclusion

Of what I'm sippin'

And what I'm thinking

Praying, Lord don't let 'em catch me slipping

Popped the cap back and relax

Yeah, the sin is relapsed

Selfishness disguised as helplessness, inhibitions left with my sleeving

Breathe that

Take a picture, perfect, freeze that

Shameful reminisces, disgusting recaps

Thinking that

This feeling, can't be me

No never, I've been set free

The liquor that I'm drinking, it controlling me

Only puts a hole in me

That can never be filled

So I just sip another bottle 'til my cup overflows into a heart that's hollow

Role models, follow the leader

To the same cornerstone where he told me to meet him

I was drinking, smelling so weedy

Crazy, why I want to be him

Because this man he had it all together

Women, money, surrounded with pleasure

I see him watching

Examinin' my manoeuvres

Grab a bottle and knowing the calculated conclusion


[Pre-Hook]

The cornerstone (x2)


[Hook]

Meet me at the spot right now

It's going down

We about to get blown out

Let's role on down


[Verse 2]

I see them watchin'

Examinin' what I'm doing

Making assessment

And assume I'm just foolish

And even though I am, I need not for them to prove it

I can finally remove them from the life I'm pursuing

Weed and music, love it too much to lose it

Covered the stuff they doin'

Vanity all consuming

And once the life worth livin' for gets ruined

This lifestyle is not real life only an illusion

Evil is not alarming when it's knocking at your back porch

And then you're swept away by a trap door

You lose footing, lose sight

Lose the fight to your own thoughts

Knowing the trap was set by your own heart

Getting Goosebumps and lumps in the back of my throat

Thinking about it before I dive back in the door

It's backwards I know

Trying to find God in the darkness is like walking backwards I know

Or maybe not

I can see when I write this

In the pitch black, candle light shines the brightest

And when the candle dances

We all get excited and drawn in

What will light allow us to decipher

Searching for knowledge we feed the flame it goes bigger, brighter

Stronger 'til the room becomes whiter

Warmer, invited, we're stepping unknowingly become consumed with the love of Christ, uncontrollably


[Pre-Hook]


[Hook 2]

Meet me at the throne right now

I'm kneeling down

Let His love pour out

This final ground

At the cornerstone


[Pre-Hook] + [Hook 2]


[Outro]

Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah

Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah

At the cornerstone
