Kado, you way too dope, kid
Aye, Lord, it looks like I done did it again
I mean, I really thought I had this thing under control
But it seems like it's just taking over my life and I really need You, God
Please
Which direction should I go?
I've been saying yes when I need to say no
One minute I get it, and then it's gone
There's so many things that trigger my soul
Holy Spirit, come heal my soul
I really need self-control
Self-control
Self-control
God, I really need self-control
Here I go, on another trip again
Not a trip within the whip, a trip where I am without grip
I'm talking about the itch within
It's like a twitch that makes my will bend
I'm saying things that I don't really mean
Seem like it should be a simple feat
Just like the instruments on this simple beat
But it will never work together as long as sin's in me
Back and forth I go like a tug of war
Can't believe I still struggle behind shut doors
It's like I got this hunger for something more
I promise I really love the Lord
So how can I be the seed that took no root?
I've been sitting on this tree and ain't bare no fruit
How could lies still live in me like I don't know the truth?
I'm just saying it's time that I show some proof
Which direction should I go?
I've been saying yes when I need to say no
One minute I get it, and then it's gone
There's so many things that trigger my soul
Holy Spirit, come heal my soul
I really need self-control
Self-control
Self-control
God, I really need self-control
To take my hands off the wheel and surrender
Got to keep my eyes peeled on the treasure
I'm torn apart if You're not here in the center
Only those who do the will of God will live forever
Tell me, how could You stay on that cross?
My thoughts betray me and they stray off
Started when I took just a day off
If I wander too far, will I remain lost?
Like a disease, limiting my abilities
And hindering my liberty
It affects my inner peace
I grit my teeth to simply speak
I been the seed that took no root
Sitting on this tree and ain't bare no fruit
These lies need to die in me, so I can live in truth
I'm just saying it's time that I show some proof
Which direction should I go?
I've been saying yes when I need to say no
One minute I get it, and then it's gone
There's so many things that trigger my soul
Holy Spirit, come heal my soul
I really need self-control
Self-control
Self-control
God, I really need self-control
