Jacob Marley (Heavy Chains)
Verse 1:
Try to give him that praise homie but these chains keep holdin' me
My Bible open don't mean a thing if I don't get that word in me
Haunted by my past decisions adding weight unto my person
Try to fight the fight of faith it seems my condition just worsens
They tell me just lean on the Christ and that would work
But would he support the weight I'm questioning his woodwork
Can the carpenter remove these chains that dig into my bones
Sitting in the temple feeling weighted down but no one knows
Well if they do it might just be that no one really cares
They're to busy singin' hallelujah hopin' people stare
Pastor can you help a brother loosen up these links on me
Chains are wrapped around my throat I can't breathe what was given to me
Life! I'm talkin' life given abundantly
I can't breathe in nothin' because these chains will squeeze it out of me
Feeling colder than the stone heart of Ebenezer
Following the crying sounds of wisdom cuz right now I need her
Hook: 2x
Draggin' all these chains like I'm Jacob Marley
Heavy chains I can feel my arms hardly
Cryin' out into the night for my freedom
Cryin' out to Father God cuz' I need him!
Verse 2:
Every second my body is breakin' from constantly walkin' around with this weight
Every second my body is achin' just prayin' to God to take it away
Take it away, take it away in the name of Jesus take it away
Sick and tired of draggin' these chains I have no one else but myself to blame
I admit it Father I invited all these demons
To wrap me up and hold me down in this season
Confusing the constrictions of these chains for embraces
Getting used to all this doubt and fear so I embraced it
Father forgive me for my foolishness you know I'm fallen
My blood is spilling on the ground I know you hear me callin'
The taste of death is in my mouth it makes me wanna vomit
I wanna unite with the body but I'm out the socket
There's power in the name of Jesus to break every chain
So I call on Yahshua HaMashiach the son of the King
With all the strength I have I lift my hands up to the top
So ashamed hang my head but I rejoice because I hear em' drop
Hook: 2x
Draggin' all these chains like I'm Jacob Marley
Heavy chains I can feel my arms hardly
Cryin' out into the night for my freedom
Cryin' out to Father God cuz' I need him!
