Diversion!
[Verse 1]
I know all the things that I did in the past
And I'm sorry, I failed You again
Again and again, I can't seem to stop
The sin never ends
I try and try to pray my way out
Hide the inside from getting out, but
It's gotta see the sunshine sometime
Feel like I'm stuck in traffic at lunchtime
The worldly sorrow's got a hold on me now
Tryna be a disciple but the devil's holding me down
Whispering lies in my ear, telling me I'm so far gone
Boy, I ain't Drake, you need to move on and get lost
I need a diversion, I need a distraction, I need me some passion
Don't I? What I gotta ask myself
Is the physical better than the spiritual wealth? Well
Do you want to get to Heaven or to hell?
It's a constant battle, the struggles never end
Think about the after, when you smite that sin
Step into the new world, huh
Come view your future, uh

[Verse 2]
Turn up! It's a new age, aye
Sticky fingers when you turn that page, hey
Thought that he could take me down
Thought that he could take my crown, no
I got this from Jesus Himself, hah
You know the Messiah, Jehovah provider
Just quiet, don't interrupt silence
I'm trying to find if you lying about your intentions
I see that you trying, though
And I think that's fine, bro
But you can't do everything yourself
It's okay to say that you need help
'Cause God got you, you can be apostle
You can be unstoppable, I know the devil watching you
Tryna trip you up like a crack on the curb do
But he can't throw hands or hurt you
Most he can do is curse you
'Cause you got the shield, I know it's real, I feel, but
You need a diversion, I guess
You need a distraction, I bet
The suffering's got you in chains and it's heavy
Don't know if it stops, if it does, are you ready?
But God's got a plan and I see it inside of you
Pulsing and blooming, your garden is booming
Springtime in the middle of June and
[Bridge]
Look at you
Look at your face, I know you so confused
But you'll be okay, because

[Verse 3]
Your darkest hour's only sixty minutes
Jesus said He'll be back in a minute
Keep on running, this race ain't finished
Stumble, get back up, you can't quit it
I got NxWorries, 'cause I'm livvin'
On the topic of joy, you know that I'm with it, sheesh
In the club reading passages from Psalm
Take up arms 'gainst the one who wanna stifle up the dawn, b
Cuz know I ain't nothing to be trifled with (no)
I'm a problem to the demons, they ain't starting it (yuh)
My namesake took a fortress down with couple men (woo)
When I got the light of God in me, I know I'll win (yes sir)
I'm stunting like my name Johnny
I got the Word for that spiritual karate
The yellow in my soul is a valuable commodity
I know my Lolo looking down, proud of me
