(Intro - Acoustic Guitar Riff, slow beat) (Verse 1 - Rap/Spoken Word) Yo, check the present circumstances, don't let the shadow make you stop. They're the materials I'm stacking, to build you up from the bottom to the top. Lose the vision, and you're falling back, into that pit of despair you know. I ain't trying to see you hurting, gotta accept the truth, let the good things grow. Didn't want you tormented, that's a detour, a hard left turn, But I'm gonna flip the script, use this whole mess, lessons you're meant to learn. So allow the growth, let it happen, don't lean on your own shaky plan, 'Cause the evil one's got whispers, trying to shake the faith in the Son of Man. (Chorus - Folk Rock, melodic, driving beat) Trust me, son, 'cause I'm at work, my will is a river, it will be done. No need to fret, no need to worry, just follow the voice until the day is won. Lean into the light, when the enemy throws that shame, Walk in the truth, don't agree with the lie, call out my Holy Name! Speak the scripture over your soul, remember whose you are, and who you're meant to be, This is the fight back against the darkness, the only true way to be free. (Verse 2 - Rap/Spoken Word) It wants to make you a slave, right here, right now, it's making its claim. But you gotta fight back, gotta reject the chains, gotta ignore the whole game. Do not listen to the voice, don't obey the twisted command, You gotta keep on fighting, but do it my way, understand? 'Cause when you agitate, using the methods of others, trying to force a drive-out, You're just inviting the backlash, raising the volume of the enemy's shout. Just trust in the plan, I'm teaching you the strength of giving up control, The power in surrender, obedience is the key to making you whole. (Chorus - Folk Rock, melodic, powerful) Trust me, son, 'cause I'm at work, my will is a river, it will be done. No need to fret, no need to worry, just follow the voice until the day is won. Lean into the light, when the enemy throws that shame, Walk in the truth, don't agree with the lie, call out my Holy Name! Speak the scripture over your soul, remember whose you are, and who you're meant to be, This is the fight back against the darkness, the only true way to be free. (Bridge - Tempo slows, slightly darker acoustic feel) You've been stubborn, trying to drive it out with ways I didn't show. Just follow the teaching, stay close to me, let your understanding go. Draw nearer to me in the trouble, that's the lesson you gotta find, Break the rebellion, do it my way, leave the other thoughts behind. I know you want it gone, that deliverance seems so tempting, another road to take, But this is the path I have for you, for goodness sake. (Outro - Beat picks up slightly, repeated phrase fades out with guitar) Trust me, son, I know what I'm doing, even if you can't see, Don't be disappointed, don't be dismayed, this is for your good, you gotta trust me... Trust me, son, this is for your good.. This is for your good.

The Path I Have for You
