This Can't Be

Gotta be more than running the streets

I'm surrounded by insanity

This can't be what You meant when You made me

This can't be what You meant when You

"I know you got some change

And I ain't even gon' lie, I'm tryna get a beer mayne"

That's what he said to the lady on the avenue

She shrugged her shoulders,

Said this dollar's 'bout what I could do

So, he took it with pride

Hardknock life, he just took it in stride

Just the way it go down in the place he reside

You win some, you lose some,

It's a heck of a life

But something in his heart say that this ain't it

The Earth that God made is good,

I know that it ain't this.

Am I the scum of the city

Like they say I is?

I'm made in Your image, this is all I get?

Even though it's all that I see

Gotta be more than runnin' the streets

I need to be free

Evil keeps talking to me

I'm surrounded by insanity

This can't be what You meant when You made me

This can't be what You meant when You

This can't be what You meant when You made me

When You made me, this can't be, when You made me

"I heard you looking for a good time"

That's what she said before she hopped inside a guy's ride

Half an hour later, she get the money off the dresser

Stay high to deal with all the pressure

She know her actions put purity in the casket

But view herself as a object of satisfaction

Just a toy to be used by boys

They get what they want, I get what I want

It's all joy

But something in the heart say that this ain't it

My body God made is good,

I know that this ain't it.

Am I a tool to be used

Like they say I is?

Made in Your image, this is all I get?

Even though it's all that I see

Gotta be more than runnin' the streets

I need to be free

Evil keeps talking to me

I'm surrounded by insanity

This can't be what You meant when You made me

This can't be what You meant when You

This can't be what You meant when You made me

This can't be what, this can't be what You made me

We look to the sky, Like Lord, why?

Where does our hope lie?

I see my homies die,

Or in a life of crime.

Creation groans for more than

Distorted pictures

But never look to the painter

For ways to fix it.

He laid the answer clearly

Through all the scripture

Faith in Christ rely on the Holy Spirit

Get it?

God sent His only Son

He was crushed so we could be

Washed in His blood

Rose and ascended, one day He'll return

For the faithful who believe,

Put your burden on the Son

What we see now, this ain't it

There'll be Heaven on Earth,

But this ain't it

Even though it's all that I see

Gotta be more than runnin' the streets

I need to be free

Evil keeps talking to me

I'm surrounded by insanity

This can't be what You meant when You made me

This can't be what You meant when You

This can't be what You meant when You made me

This can't be what, this can't be what You made me

Even though it's all that I see

Gotta be more than runnin' the streets

I need to be free

Evil keeps talking to me

I'm surrounded by insanity

This can't be what You meant when You made me

This can't be what You meant when You

This can't be what You meant when You made me
