Prodigy Tha Kid - THA ELEPHANT (feat. Mr. SpreadLove)

Lord, find me amongst my discontent,
My emotions unsettled by a storm of feelings I refuse to acknowledge,
And I fear the negativity will consume me,
Cast me into a darkness, dim my lightness
Have I neglected to find a balance in my spirit?
I fed my positivity ignorance until the negativity
Grew more and more hungry.
I tried to starve anger and sadness,
Left empty the cup that my expression drank from because the drink was bitter,
And affected my goodwill with thoughts of petty retaliation.
But how many cheeks should I turn?
Which bridges should I burn to ensure my path is never confused again?
Lord, find me amongst my frustrations, for I know You see my steps
You see the steps that I'm taking,
The steps that have been made,
And those that have yet to be walked.
Give me clarity
Where there is discernment,
And guide me through the wilderness of my woes
Lost my ways, I must confess it
Lost my faith, been way too tested
Tryna create as a profession
Too much weight, too much pressure
Feel like I've been miscounting my blessings
Feelings I've held, tryna read the testament
Tryna be Christ-like, look what he left me with
I got a comfortable crib, and a bed in it
Watched my homie lose his life
There ain't no breath in it
I can't take life for granted
I guess I'm settling
I guess I'm settling
I can't sign no deals
I don't do settlements
I need time to heal
I gotta settle in
I gotta choose between betterment and relevance
I mean it's definite, my developments evident
Only thing that I gotta do, is address the elephant
Find me in the uneasiness of living
Reinforce my purpose even if I don't know how
I thank You for these contemplations
For how else would I know I exist?
If my children ever find these words,
I hope they lead to You
Though You may have many names,
I know You as Love.
I worship and exalt You,
And I know You will never leave me
I know they still watching my moves
I know they still watching me groove
So if they gonna hear me one last time
Just know what I'm bout to say is true
I'm not perfect
I'm not perfect
I'm not perfect so what are you?
