Full Song Lyrics

Verbal D
Chorus 1:
Been looking for love
Had none for myself
And I needed help
God found her

And she taught me love
When I didn't know
How I could show
Beyonds words(x2)

Verbal D
Verse 1:
Shame on the Devil
, we all blame the Devil

Sometimes He's in the music, if you’re turning up the treble
But we’re on another level
, love to our Jesus

Cast away the demons
, 'cause we know we don't need this

Evil will pinpoint your weakness
Corner you in darkness, try to leave you speechless

Speak to God, His love is only sweetness

Form your fellowships, 'cause together we can beat this

We’re keeping it clean, be about your neatness

Haters want beef, but I'm speaking something meatless

Climbing to the top, don't worry about the steepness

You can save your soul, The Tree of Life was never leafless

Dreaming of heaven, but my soul be getting sleepless

Materialism isn't divine, it’s all cheapness

Proverbs 31, should marry a priestess

'Cause I don’t an alien that’s reigning from Venus, believe this

Verbal D
Chorus 2:
Been looking for love
Had none for myself
And I needed help
God found her

And she taught me love
When I didn't know
How I could show
Beyonds words(x2)

Verbal D
Verse 2:
All I want in my life is Claudine
Rips at my heart like a tiger claws things
Look at my heart, see what it all means
Constant flow of emotions, no pausing

Tryna fly with flawed wings, dive in small streams
I know it's all possible from when I saw dreams
Gotta make moves, no time for stalling
Climb to the top, even if I'm crawling

Let go of the baggage that I was hauling
Surrender my life to GOD, He's calling
Pick myself up, even if I'm falling
'Cause the life that I paint, is what I'm drawing

Be a better person, not at all appalling
Continue fighting evil, even when it's spawning
Stay in the light, not under the awning
And fight ’til I'm tired, to the point of yawning...

Verbal D
Chorus 3:
Been looking for love
Had none for myself
And I needed help
God found her

And she taught me love
When I didn't know
How I could show
Beyonds words(x2)

Lovely expression of devotion to two such important parts of your life - your wife and your faith. And I like the contrast between the rhythm of the verse and the softness of the chorus. I've been meaning to come by and check out your music for a while, and I'm glad I did!

Thank you very much my friend, you're most kind with your words. I love the contrast of how I approach my song making as well, I feel the balance works well for a broader audience. Many people prefer either my rapping or my singing over the other, but I enjoy both crafts near equally. Thank you for lending your ears and time to hear my music :) Most appreciated

Amazing as always, bro! What I say always about you giving your best works when it's about your family holds true to this very day. The words are so purposeful and filled with love. One can't help but be moved at the your proficiency in telling a tale through rhymes. The beat was definitely refreshing, so props to Jimmy Thirdpage for that!

You've been such a huge beacon of positivity here, so I really hope that my humble comments help to provide you with encouragement. You do such great work, and one day all your labor would yield fruit. Keep on doing what you're doing, brother!

Yeah Jimmy Thirdpage definitely has skills with the beats, and I'm so glad you found this one to be just as moving as my others. When it comes to family, there is not better motivation or source of inspiration after God. I just let it flow and I believe this labor is already being rewarded to me with the children and other blessings I have, like friends like you and dreemit and many other small things in life that add that extra flair of optimism for me to express my gratitude and stay humble of all the privileges and opportunities I've been granted in this life thus far. Thank you again bro, I won't stop as long as I'm alive
