Substantial - Power of Self lyrics

If you truly believe that you are a child of God's creation Then to doubt yourself could be viewed as the equivalent of doubting God You feel what I'm saying? Sometimes I wanna leave but I don't know where to go Like there's nowhere to go So I go with the flow It's plenty I wanna see but I don't where to look Maybe I fear the journey and appear to be shook And I know I need to chill but I don't know how to rest Running nonstop now I'm so out of breath So I breathe in breathe out Catch the beat then catch my breath Somedays my raps are deep or lack in depth At times when I don't know where I'm headed I know there's locks on my head but I don't know why i'm dreaded Could be better at it but at least I know how to love But like long distance relationships I'm so out of touch and out of luck! HOOK I just gotta believe in me ‘Cause victory never comes easily At least that's the way that it seems to me But we can change anything when we believe I just gotta believe in me ‘Cause victory never comes easily At least that's the way that it seems to me But we can change anything when we believe I want to make it to the top but I'm scared if heights Like being caught up in a war but unprepared to fight So can I really win if I'm afraid to battle? How will I see the world if I'm too scared to travel? The pressure that I'm up against, so hard to deal with Though we never met I know y'all can feel it I want to be invincible but I'm merely flesh At times I feel I'm cursed though I'm really blessed When I reveal a verse, some may feel it's fresh It hits home for them Like the songs for them But I'm glad that somebody can relate to my pain Because if you didn't they might just think I'm insane Sometimes I want fame but then I check my ego 'Cause what I really want is to connect with people Feed my seed, provide for her and the misses While my next obstacle waits to emerge in the distant future Hook I want to be great I want to make you proud Shake the doubt and the hate that's trying to break me down Can you believe in God without believing in you? By trying to find out who you are you're only seeking the truth I wanna hold my own Gotta get a grip Cross this alone And pray I never slip I'll take the challenge Maintain my balance Like a pillar of strength Until you feel my intent now rock with me Hook
