The Answer

Growing up I seen the world
Chase after many things
Wrapped up in the money
And the lies that it brings
Throw away their family for selfish ambition
All because the paper
That they chase became religion
They treat money like a God
But it's really not the way
More money more problems
That's what Biggie had to say
I lay it plain
God is the answer to your struggle
Choose to follow Him
And find the answer to your troubles
A new day's coming
When you can stop running
When kids don't have to steal
Just so they can eat something
Where daddies don't leave
And governments don't lie
And the world bows down
To lift your name up high
He is the answer
He is the answer
The only reason I'm holding on
To the answer so Lord I surrender
'Cos you are the reason I'm standing strong
I know I couldn't breathe without ya I know
I couldn't see without ya I know
What would I be without ya
I'm standing strong I know
When you came it was like a star to the sky
Light of the world
As you sparked into life majestic
You listen to the brok-est of cries
You talk about truth and you silenced the lies
I guess there was nobody quite like you
God you're my strength
And you pulled me through
You're the hope to the masses
Your story is classic
You took many lashes for me it was drastic
The holes in your hands
To the scars on your back
From the bruises and cuts
From the whips that were cracked
You are good you are love
To the world you were hope
If you're caught up in the struggle let's go
I'm running round feeling lonely
The weight of the world is on me
I can see the walls are closing
It's cold and the rain is pouring
