The Harvest

Artists: (Style of) Andy Mineo & Lecrae

(Intro)

(Distorted vocal chop) No pain... no gain...

(Andy Mineo style ad-lib) Yeah! It feels heavy!

But we don't quit in the middle of the set.

Let’s go!

(Verse 1 - Style of Andy Mineo)

Okay, I’m in the spiritual gym, tryna get my weight up

My faith muscles tearing, man, I'm feeling fed up

God, why You cutting me? The pressure is applied

I want the microwave blessing, You got the slow cook inside

I'm dodging the reps, I'm trying to skip the leg day

I want the crown without the cross, let me do it my way

But You said, "Son, I love you way too much to leave you dying"

So I’m sweating in the spirit, yeah, I’m really trying

You see the cancer in my character, You bring the cure

It hurts to be refined, but You making me pure.

(Chorus)

It don’t feel good right now! (Nah!)

It feels like breaking down! (Yeah!)

But I know You’re building up something that’s gonna last

I gotta trust the process and forget the past

It’s the training, the straining, yeah we waiting

For the harvest while it’s raining!

It don’t feel good right now!

But the harvest is coming around!

(Verse 2 - Style of Lecrae)

(Beat drops deeper)

Look. If He ain't correct you, He ain't protect you

That's what a Father does when He selects you

It ain't abuse, it's real love in action

Smashing the idols that are causing distraction

We illegitimate children if we don't get the rod

It’s the chastening that proves we belong to God

It's surgery, He removing the heart of stone

He’s right there in the fire, you ain't in it alone.

(Bridge)

(Music drops to a heartbeat kick drum. Spoken clearly)

Hold up. Don't waste the pain.

Remember what Hebrews 12:11 says.

“No discipline seems pleasant at the time, but painful. Later on, however, it produces a harvest for those who have been trained by it.”

(Beat builds up fast)

We trained by it!

Ready for the harvest!

(Outro)

Yeah!

Whatever You gotta do, Lord!

Train me!

Don't let me stay the same!

The Harvest is here!

12-11!

(Fade out)
