Rey.OH.eight - Penny For Your Thoughts lyrics

[Intro] (I chase you all day in my mind…) [Verse 1: Illijam] I've been thinking bout how I been thinking too much/ And I'm feeling how obsession makes you lose touch/ It's this wicked addictive personality causing friction/ Over-loving the mission such that I'm losing the vision/ And the goal's been to see folks count it loss/ Find their top joy in Jesus; get that across/ But somehow I turned the message to a mirror/ Fell in love with my reflection, man I ain't been seeing clear/ God I want my every endeavor to show how you're my treasure/ Purify my tainted desires, while I make you my pleasure/ I feel so trapped when I am dating Queen Ratings/ I been in my basement writing rhymes just creating/ And I don't wanna sound like I got it together I don't I just don't wanna settle for pleasure/ That's lesser, than what I know we can have/ So many obligations I feel like I'm drownin/ And it all keep me busy like King Midas's accountant/ 9-5, music life, family and my lady I/ Been juggling juggling Barnum & B-Bailey Circus grind/ My prof in college said figure out what you'll say/ And God may give a platform from which you can convey/ But what all that means remains to be seen/ Me and a million others are all chasing their dreams/ And it's crazy how people change; I ain't talking haircuts/ I'm talking Transformers Hasbro-character/ Whether it's mental illness or livin in sin/ They're both symptomatic of how we're broken within/ And I pray God guide me, as I'm writing/ How do you write about pain without dissing who provided it?/ I don't know, forgive me if I'm too open/ People from my past -- it's in love and I'm hoping/ To show y'all, how God works, ironically/ And while you wait, He works for good/ Just wait...and...see/
