FLAME
War Of The Minds (feat. J.R.)
[Verse 1]
Sometimes I feel like Moses man I just want to run to Midian/ just to change my state but not the state where my city's in/ but my state of mind/ look for a sign like Gideon/ cause my faith is wavering I'm forsaking dependence again/ you took me from Egypt just to make me a leader/ but like Moses I'm not an eloquent speaker/ I'm not eloquent either/ not before nor after you've spoken/ me in ministry you've gotta be jokin'/ I feel like Jeremiah/ here are my bones Lord and here is my fire/ I'm inadequate to represent the messiah/ call me the weepin' rapper/I read a chapter then I'm heapin' up laughter/ because I'm weak and I can see the disaster of me in ministry/ I feel Job I curse the day of my birth/ since I was born its only payin' me hurt/ my insecurities worse/ sometimes I wish that that night was barren/ either that or Lord send me an Aaron

[Verse 2]
This song is for you my sisters and brothers who strugglin' with depression/ not just the blues but a struggle with depression/ maybe it's clinical and got you taking medicine/ or maybe not but you taking counseling session and/ that's excellent/ take your medicine/ if you need it cause this is pleasin' to Jesus/ I write this song for the schizophrenic/ who only gets left alone and throne in a hospital only to panic/ and whose family doesn't understand/ so they treat you like an animal but never would the Son of Man/ for those who ask what's going on inside of me/ who feels bound by fear bound by anxiety/ I write to you because I know the/ very God who's in control of bipolar/ I write to those who wrestle with thoughts of suicide/ don't do it cause Jesus loves you for you He died

[Hook: J.R.]
For every tear that you cry
For all of the wars in your mind
And the fears that you hide
Know that He's there know that He's walking with you
I know that it's hard to press on
When the nights seem so long
Remember His word is your hope
So know that He cares know that He's walking with you

[Verse 3]
The core problem is that Adam sinned/ and since then to now its 8 out of 10/ women and men and children who struggle with depression/ especially house wives and preachers they're people who struggle with depression/ I write this song for that introverted/ insecure person that's training his thoughts into thinking he's worthless/ God made you/ God can save you/ in everything you can give Him worship/ you're not worthless/ Lord I pray for the mentally ill/ that in your ministry you mentally heal/ those who suffer with it/ if not now then you eventually will heal your children that are mentally ill/ for now they suffer with it/ give us the strength just deal with your will/ because we sinners and we wrestle with it/ just like Job did it/ I write this song for those who were sexually abused/ lookin' for weaponry to use seek Jesus

[Hook: J.R.]
For every tear that you cry
For all of the wars in your mind
And the fears that you hide
Know that He's there know that He's walking with you
I know that it's hard to press on
When the nights seem so long
Remember His word is your hope
So know that He cares know that He's walking with you
