INTRO – sung | NO DRUMS]
(vinyl crackle, organ pad)
Oooohhh…
If the truth hurt once, it healed me twice…
I ain’t here by luck, I’m here by light…
ooooooh
mmm… mmm..
[VERSE 1 – rap | drums soft]
I learned early silence louder than applause,
Same hands that clap for you be prayin’ on your fall.
I seen smiles switch when the mission took form,
Rain on my name but I weathered the storm.
I was chasin’ a dream while dodgin’ my past,
Every loss was a lesson, every scar a map.
They said “slow down,” I said “God got pace,”
If He put breath in my lungs, I can run this race.
I ain’t flexin’, I’m confessin’, check the lines between,
If I speak it in code it’s ‘cause the truth stay clean.
What you hear as a bar was once a prayer at night,
I was down on my knees tryna stand upright.
Mmmm I was down on my knees…
Now I’m upright standing on my feet…
Ooohooo…
[BRIDGE – sung | DRUMS DROP]
(pads + choir only)
Hold me steady when the weight get heavy…
I been tested but I’m still ready…
If I fall, let me fall toward You…
Every scar say “He brought me through…”
“oooh / ahh” (2x)
[PRE-HOOK – sung | lift begins]
I been lost… I been found…
I been silent in the loudest crowd…
If you knew what it took just to stand right here,
You’d understand why my faith so clear…
“ahh” “oooh” “faith so clear” (2x)
[HOOK – | sing/rap | FULL DRUMS]
I chase the truth, not the hype, not the views,
Every step I took, God tied my shoes.
When the road got dark, yeah He lit the proof,
This ain’t overnight — this is ChaseIt truth.
“Chaaase it…”
“Don’t fake it…”
“Faith in motion…”
[VERSE 2 – rap | darker → confident]
They love the crown but don’t know the cost,
Every jewel was paid with somethin’ I lost.
I was talkin’ to God while talkin’ to doubt,
Same voice that whispered “quit” got drowned out.
I learned pain got a rhythm, fear got a tone,
If you listen close you can hear it groan.
I ain’t perfect, I’m positioned — that’s the difference,
Grace filled the gap where I lacked precision.
I don’t chase people, I chase alignment,
What’s for me won’t need my assignment.
If the door ain’t open, I build the hinge,
God said “walk,” I said “watch me sprint.”
“Mmhmm”, watch me sprint..” mmhmm..
[FINAL HOOK – BIGGEST MOMENT]
I chase the truth, not the hype, not the views,
Every step I took, God tied my shoes.
When the road got dark, yeah He lit the proof,
This ain’t overnight — this is ChaseIt truth.
Chase the truth, ChaseIt the truth..
[OUTRO – 4 bars | spoken/sung | DRUMS DROP]
I didn’t make it here alone…
Every closed door redirect me home.
If you hear this and feel it — that’s Him too.
Truth don’t shout…
It finds you..
That’s the truth…
Mmmmm, oooohoooo
