[Intro]

It's EG

I'm coming back to the basics, man

You feelin' me though?

If it ain't broke, don't fix it

Look, look


[Verse 1]

I'm back to my first love, back to the basics

I'm waiting on God now, I'm not finna chase it

I ain't finna rush things, I'm back to the patience

Help me with my unbelief and remind me what faith is

My countin' is down bad, you gave me a facelift

I'm done with the old me, it's like you erased 'em

Couldn't keep your commandments and simultaneously grace it

Now the command is in my heart and not just the back of my bracelet

I'm back to the forefront, I'm back to the pavement

I'm done with my old habits, bring in the replacemеnts

I'm packing it up and going back to the days when I was

Lifting up men's own prayеrs in the basement

I'm done with religion, I'm back to relation

I'm back to the awe of God 'till I stand at amazement

I'm back to evangelism, we taking the nation

Shoulder to shoulder with Pastor Karlos, I'm standing adjacent

I'm back to obedience, I'm back to submission

I'm back to the ministry, coming back to the vision

I'm back to the 5 E's, I'm back to the 3 C's

I'm back to the promises, coming back to the mission


[Chorus]

You are all I need

You are all I'll ever need


[Verse 2]

Look, I'm back to the Scriptures, I'm back to the Bible

I'm done with the blame game, I'm holding me liable

I'm cleaning my house up, I'm casting out idols

I'm not gonna stop until I experience revival

I'm back to the third wave, I'm not talking Tidal

The cause irrevocable, bro, I'm still a disciple

Pleasing them with my music, started becoming a cycle

I'm back to pleasing God with it, instead of trying to go viral

I'm killing my pride more, I'm loving my wife more

I'm keeping her close to me, cause without her, I'll spiral

I'm bringing my offering, and I'm giving my tithe more

Help me to exhibit it, not just put it on vinyl

I'm practicing dying daily, I'm not suicidal

I'm killing my flesh off until I'm dead on arrival

I'm back to the church house, I'm throwing my praise up

I can't call it worship if I ain't creasing my J's up

I ain't scared of death, bruh, one day I'll be raised up

I'm back to preaching the rapture until it comes that my days are up

I don't care about post trip, mid trip, pre trip

One day I'm gonna hear the sound of a trumpet and gaze up


[Chorus]

You are all I need (You feel me though? I'm back to the basics, man)

(I told you I wouldn't play it, Pastor K!)

You are all I'll ever need (We ain't done yet either, we gon' take it back, back)


[Outro]

Look, look, look

Let's go over to the Outreach

Where everybody's praising the Lord

Travel without the treasures of the darkness

To every major city of the world

I got saved at Victory Outreach

And I'll never ever be the same

So let's go over to the Outreach

Where they are lifting up Jesus's name

I just wanna lift His name, I just wanna lift His name (Again!)

I just wanna lift His name, I just wanna lift His name (Louder!)

I just wanna lift His name, I just wanna lift His name (End it strong, men!)

I just wanna lift His name, I just wanna lift His name
