My Story

I thought my testimony was less than holy
I thought that I was less blessed than my homies
Just confessing only the big sins
I thought that was a badge of honor
I thought I had to have a story that was packed with drama
But I aint ever been shot, no big crimes
Never smoked weed, never drank, I never did time
I grew up with both parents both cheering me on
Teaching me basic things like no swearing (no swearing son)
It’s so apparent I came up in the church
Socially that's where I gained my worth
Learned to pray and assert myself for God displaying his worth
By living without blame on the earth
Just the average kid, you know the type that like to play in the dirt
Came home with dirt stains on my shirt
Reciting the same old verse at the table, no pains no hurts
And I knew that I was called before the day of my birth
And its like that
I ain't got no horror story
God kept me in my youth I give him all the glory
Thought my story wouldn't float, but now I know
The blood of the lamb - it saved my soul, that's my testimony
I ain't got no horror story
God kept me in my youth I give him all the glory
Thought my story wasn't dope, but now I know
The blood of the lamb - it saved my soul, that's my testimony
I ain't no gangster, I aint tough cause I rap
Never been cuffed and stuffed in the back
Of a patty-wagon, I aint never cuss in my raps
I started gospel, most ain't accustomed to that
Let me get back, when I was young I used to think I was corny
Cause I ain't grow up in the projects drinking a 40
And I ain't never had no thug dude sneaking upon me
And everybody had the name brand sneakers before me
And it made me really mad
But as a buck my mom and pops taught me never to chase silly fads
They told me focus and bought me notebooks, I really had
Praying parents they introduced me to Billy Graham
See I ain't got no horror story
God kept me as a buck I give him all the glory
In high school pretty girls in the hall ignored me
Called me church boy but I wasn't bothered normally
Though sometimes I would hate
Living the life of a saint
They saw the Christian boy coming and like right from the gate
Thought I would preach so they tried to escape
But I guess that's just the price of pronouncing your faith
And it's like that
I ain't got no horror story
God kept me in my youth I give him all the glory
Thought my story wouldn't float, but now I know
The blood of the lamb - it saved my soul, that's my testimony
I ain't got no horror story
God kept me in my youth I give him all the glory
Thought my story wasn't dope, but now I know
The blood of the lamb - it saved my soul, that's my testimony
Don’t get me wrong I ain't saying I’m prefect
Matter fact I took thoughts and conveyed em by cursing
I was saved but my behavior was worse than it should have been man
I was ashamed just to say I’m a virgin
Plus too afraid to admit I was a Christian
I spent most of those days trying to prove I was hip
Plus trying to prove I was cool
Trying to move like a pimp
My testimony wasn’t cool enough yet (so I thought)
Then I came to my senses I put my brain to the scriptures
Thought of how Christ was blameless to sinners
He didn’t grow up on the corner fornicating with sisters
Not a hood dude a good Jew grew in favor and wisdom
That gave me relief
Rearranged my belief no longer thinking what I’m saying is weak
When I say I ain't never been sprayed in the street
But I've been saved by his grace plus raised to my feet
And its like that
I ain't got no horror story
God kept me in my youth I give him all the glory
Thought my story wouldn't float, but now I know
The blood of the lamb - it saved my soul, that's my testimony
I ain't got no horror story
God kept me in my youth I give him all the glory
Thought my story wasn't dope, but now I know
The blood of the lamb - it saved my soul, that's my testimony
