Verse 1
Don’t fall in love with the world’s disguise,
Shiny little things and borrowed highs.
Don’t chase the goods, don’t buy the lie,
That kind of love lets the Father slip by.
When the heart gets full of the world’s demand,
There’s no room left for His gentle hand.
Pre-Chorus
You can feel it in the pressure, hear it in the noise,
Every voice shouting, “Make your choice.”
Chorus
’Cause the world keeps saying, “Want what you want, want it now,”
Walk your own way, take your bow.
But that road don’t lead to peace or truth,
It just pulls you farther from the Father’s view.
Yeah, the world is loud, but love is clear—
Do what God wants, you’re set for eternity here.
Verse 2
Everybody wants it their own way,
More for themselves at the end of the day.
Wanna look important, wanna stand tall,
But pride builds walls where love should fall.
That fire don’t come from heaven above,
It’s not the rhythm of the Father’s love.
Pre-Chorus
It don’t connect you, it don’t make you whole,
It leaves you lonely in a crowded soul.
Chorus
’Cause the world keeps saying, “Want what you want, want it now,”
Walk your own way, take your bow.
But that road don’t lead to peace or truth,
It just pulls you farther from the Father’s view.
Yeah, the world is loud, but love is clear—
Do what God wants, you’re set for eternity here.
Bridge (Drop / Reflection)
Everything fading, everything fast,
Grabbing at smoke that can’t ever last.
Wanting and wanting, chasing the wind,
But forever begins when surrender steps in.
Break (Instrumental / Chant)
Slow it down now… let it go…
Hold what matters, let love flow…
Final Chorus
The world and its wanting is on the way out,
All that noise, all that doubt.
But the one who listens, the one who obeys,
Is planted deep in eternal days.
Yeah, the world will fade, but God remains—
Walk His way, break your chains.
Outro
So I choose the Father over the flame,
Over the glitter, over the fame.
Roots down deep where the true life grows,
Set for eternity… and my spirit knows.
