The Definition of Sound
Vibrations that travel through the air
Or another media
and can be heard when they reach another person's ear
that's not the only Definition of Sound
There's a sound of one's voice that let's you know just want they feel
There's a sound of Pain a sound of Joy a sound of strength a sound of Love a sound of Desperation and a sound of victory
Listen to the Sound

I never said a word but I know my Father heard me
I stopped talking 'bout it 'cause now it's time to shout it
Fifty thousand problems and words couldn't solve them

That's the sound of victory and
That's the sound of no defeat and
That's the sound of holding on and
That's the sound of staying strong

I can't do nothing but scream what I'm feeling
God knows my heart and I know that He hears it, yeah
Now let me hear you say

Never said a word but I know my Father heard me
I stopped talking 'bout it 'cause now it's time to shout it
Fifty thousand problems and words couldn't solve them

That's the sound of victory and
That's the sound of no defeat and
That's the sound of holding on and
That's the sound of staying strong

I can't do nothing but scream what I'm feeling
God knows my heart and I know that He hears it, yeah

I think I wanna holla, is it alright if I holla?
Sometimes I need to holla, hey holla
Can you hear me if I moan? Is it alright if I moan?
Mmm, moan, mmm, moan

Somebody saved? Somebody saved?
Somebody saved? Somebody saved?

I love the Lord, He heard my cry
And pitied every, every groan
Every groan, every groan
Every groan, every groan, yeah

The machine

They're here now, but then they're gone
Where they at? I don't know
Ay, oh, they hit the door
That kinda friend I gotta let go

A superfriend, a superfriend
Yes sir, I got me one of them
A superfriend, a superfriend
I got me a superfriend

No sir, there's nothing half way about him
This world could never be made without him
No heart, no breath, no mind, no sun, no moon, no time
He's something like the best of them
He's nothing like the rest of them

'Cause they're here now but then they're gone
Where they at? I don't know
Ay, oh, they hit the door
That kinda friend I gotta let go

A superfriend, a superfriend
Yes sir, I got me one of them
A superfriend, a superfriend
I got me a superfriend

Lord, I'm so weak and scared to run
What have I done to deserve a life like this?
The devil's scared to fight us in the light
He hides in the midst of religion
But I know that my God is listening there for me
There's a greater mission

You're no girl, you're no man, but a plan for greater peace
I'll fight for the light until my flesh falls deceased
I'm fighting the devil, fighting police
And in the church, Lord I'm looked at as Satan
'Cause in my music I curse

But I'm trying to do better and that's the thing that really hurts
All this sex and the drugs in my life mean nothing
When my superfriend hugs me at night tears come rushing
There's no kryptonite, no dealing no lie that could be told

That can separate the power that you have over my soul
So stunting is a habit when I'm gripping this mic
Ya'll thinking I'm a pimp but I'm trying to be like Christ
In real life, yeah

They're here now but then they're gone
Where they at? I don't know
Ay, oh, they hit the door
That kinda friend I gotta let go

A superfriend, a superfriend
Yes sir, I got me one of them
A superfriend, a superfriend
I got me a superfriend

He heard me before I made a sound
Caught me before I hit the ground
He knows everything I need
Before I tell him anything

Loves me without requirements
Can't see him but it's evident
He's something like the best of them
Said He's nothing like the rest of them

'Cause they're here now but then they're gone
Where they at? I don't know
Ay, oh, they hit the door
That kinda friend I gotta let him go

A superfriend, a superfriend
Yes sir, I got me one of them
A superfriend, a superfriend
I got me a superfriend

Can't nobody do me like my superfriend
Can't nobody do me like my superfriend, no
Can't nobody do me like my superfriend
Can't nobody do me like my superfriend, no

(feat. Kierra Sheard)

I just wanna tell the truth mayne [x5]

[Verse 1:]
Your so fly your so high
Everbody around you trying to figure out why
Your so cool your win all the time
Everywhere you go man you get alot of shine
You draw like a magnet better yet I have it
Everything you wear people say they got have it
From the sweat suit to the white tee to the gucci
You can probably say people wanna get like me

[Hook:]
But what they don't know is when you go home
And get behind closed doors man you hit the floor
And what they can't see is your on your knees
So the next time you get it just tell em

[Chorus:]
It's the God in me [x5]
You think I'm so fresh you think I'm so clean
You think I'm so sweet It's the God in me
[Kierra Sheard:] What is it you think you see

[Verse 2:]
You see her style you think she nice
You look at her whip you say the whip tight
You look at her crib you thinks she's paid
You look at her life you think she's got it made
But everything she's got the girl's been given
She calls it a blessing but you call it living
When it comes to money she can be a hero
She writes them cheacks with a whole lot of zeros

[Hook:]
But what they don't know is when you go home
And get behind closed doors man you hit the floor
And what they can't see is your on your knees
If you ask her she'll tell you

[Chorus:]
It's the God in me [x5]
You think I'm so fresh you think I'm so clean
You think I'm so sweet It's the God in me
[Kierra Sheard:] What is it you think you see

[Kierra Sheard:] What is it you think you see
When you see me, you see me
You don't know how much I pray
Don't know how much I gave
Don't know how much I changed
I'm just tryna explain

[Chorus:]
It's the God in me [x5]
You think I'm so fresh you think I'm so clean
You think I'm so sweet It's the God in me
[Kierra Sheard:] What is it you think you see

Boom, boom, boom, boom

Have you ever had somethin' that you knew you had to say
But the message wasn't so pretty, couldn't say it the nice way
Kinda like you're jealous, you're selfish, you got a bad attitude
Gotta watch the way you livin', 'cause it all comes back to you

See my grand mamma told me that I'd better tell the truth
'Cause if I hold this information and just let it brew
It's gon' feel like

Boom
First comes the match and then the smoke and then the fire
Boom
You feel the flames and then it grows and takes you over

Boom
It burns a while, can't calm it down like explosion
Boom
Gotta tell it, I got, got to tell it, Jeremiah said it's like fire
Boom

You don't seem to have a problem when my language is profane
But you're offended and insulted when I say in Jesus' name
Still I close my eyes, I bow my head and fall to my knees
'Cause my conviction is much stronger than my knees would please

See my grand mamma told me to better tell the truth
'Cause if I hold this information and just let it brew
It's gon' feel like

Boom
First comes the match and then the smoke and then the fire
Boom
You feel the flames and then it grows and takes you over

Boom
It burns a while, can't calm it down like explosion
Boom
Gotta tell it, I got, got to tell it 'cause Jeremiah said it's like fire

I've been holdin' back too long, just been goin' along
But I've got somethin' to say, need to make a little bit more noise
Have the confidence to use my voice startin' today
There's a hope you can't deny, there's a love that never dies
A power that you just can't hide, too brief to keep inside

Boom
First comes the match and then the smoke and then the fire
Boom
You feel the flames and then it grows and takes you over

Boom
It burns a while, can't calm it down like explosion
Boom
Gotta tell it, I got, got to tell it, Jeremiah said it's like fire

Boom
First comes the match and then the smoke and then the fire
Boom
You feel the flames and then it grows and takes you over

Boom
It burns a while, can't calm it down like explosion
Boom
Gotta tell it, I got, got to tell it 'cause Jeremiah said it's like fire

Boom, boom, boom, boom

When You speak to me I have direction
But I woke up today and You ain't said nothing, no
Which way do I go and tell me what do I do?
But I will never know if I don't get to You

So I'm running
If I can't walk then I'll crawl
And I'll get up if I fall
Gotta get to where You are

So I'm running
And I won't stop for nothing
It's hard but it's worth it
When it's You Lord that I want

Looking and looking, said I'm just trying to find You
Feels like a dead end, I'm so lost without You
But I'm feeling desperate and I don't wanna feel this
I need a solution and walking just won't get it

So I'm running
If I can't walk then I'll crawl
And I'll get up if I fall
Gotta get to where You are

So I'm running
And I won't stop for nothing
It's hard but it's worth it
When it's You Lord that I want

As the deer pantith for the water
So my soul longeth after Thee
You alone are my hearts desire
And I long to worship Thee

So I'm running
If I can't walk then I'll crawl
And I'll get up if I fall
Gotta get to where You are

So I'm running
And I won't stop for nothing
It's hard but it's worth it
When it's You Lord that I want

You're listening to The Sound

I hold a memory of myself
Reflections of what I used to be
These broken roads that brought me here
They make it hard to face reality

But a new day is here
It's time that I embrace it
Can't wait another day
Right now I gotta face it

I never ever wanna press rewind, never wanna go back in time
Not much glory in that story but it's mine
So I'm loving who I am today, past has passed away
Finally I have forgiven me

I hold a memory of myself
So young and foolish and not knowing
Careless decisions that I made
I wish somebody would have told me

But a new day is here
It's time that I embrace it
Can't wait another day
Right now I've gotta face it

I never ever wanna press rewind, never wanna go back in time
Not much glory in that story but it's mine
So I'm loving who I am today, past has passed away
Finally I have forgiven me

The mirror on the wall it lets me see today
That I'm, I'm not that foolish girl
Time has brought a change, a transformation
The old into the new when I let go of me and held on to you

I never ever wanna press rewind, never wanna go back in time
Not much glory in that story but it's mine
So I'm loving who I am today, past has passed away
Finally I have forgiven me

I never ever wanna press rewind, never wanna go back in time
Not much glory in that story but it's mine
So I'm loving who I am today, past has passed away
Finally I have forgiven me

I hold a memory of myself

God made dirt and dirt don't hurt

Funny thing about a garden
Beauty lives within its gates
Bugs and thorns and weeds they grow there
But they all help to create

Vivid color variations
Sweet aromas and sensations
Realize under it all
Something not so beautiful but we all

Need a little bit, I need a little bit
Need a little bit of dirt to grow
We need a little bit, I need a little bit
Need a little rain to wash our souls
We need a little bit, I need a little dirt to grow

Life at times can make you weak
And I have cried myself to sleep
'Cause reality makes you cry
But the truth will dry your eyes

Things they just can't stay the same
When you work hard and you pray
Yeah, it may be kind of rough now
But the point I'm trying to make is that we

We all need a little bit, I need a little bit
Need a little bit of dirt to grow
We need a little bit, I need a little bit
Need a little rain to wash our souls
We need a little bit, I need a little dirt to grow

Oh, sometimes you may sing for yourself
You struggle hard just to prevail
It's the lesson you need to learn
It's the way you've got to earn

Champions never accept defeat
They fall and get back on their feet
'Cause they know like I know
That if you want to grow we

We all need a little bit, I need a little bit
Need a little bit of dirt to grow
We need a little bit, I need a little bit
Need a little rain to wash our souls
We need a little bit, I need a little dirt to grow

We all need a little bit, I need a little bit
Need a little bit of dirt to grow
We need a little bit, I need a little bit
Need a little rain to wash our souls
We need a little bit, I need a little dirt to grow

Need a little dirt to grow, it will make you better
Need a little dirt to grow, it will make you stronger
Need a little dirt to grow, oh we need it
Need a little dirt to grow, yeah

I lay me down tonight searching for words to say
So many doubts that fight me calling out Your name
But Lord it's me again ready for something new
Please rest upon my heart like the morning dew

Holy Spirit rain like Seattle
Overtake my life like a flood
Like California shake what's not like You
I just want a heart like Yours

Just like a painter has some colors and a brush
Upon the canvas soon a masterpiece becomes
Please take all that I am and all that I can be
Transform, renew, restore, create a better me

Holy Spirit rain like Seattle
Overtake my life like a flood
Like California shake what's not like You
I just want a heart like Yours

Holy Spirit rain like Seattle
Overtake my life like a flood
Like California shake what's not like You
I just want a heart like Yours

Open up my heart, fill me with Your love
Every single part, make me what You're made of
Take me from the start, hold my hand in Yours
Let the rain pour

Holy Spirit rain like Seattle
Overtake my life like a flood
Like California shake what's not like You
I just want a heart like Yours

I was lost but You came and found me
You left Your thrown thinking about me
You bled and died to show me mercy
You gave Your all because You saw my need

I was empty but You came and filled me
I was blinded but You helped me to see
I was broken but You made me whole again
I felt like nothing but You gave me confidence

And I'm filled so much with gratitude words are not enough
To explain the magnitude, the passion of my love

Oh, You took everything I was, made me what I am
And with all I am I worship You
You took everything I was, made me what I am
And with all I am I worship You

You were life when I was dying
You were strength when I was crying
You were right and I was so wrong
A melody when I had no song

And I'm filled with so much with gratitude words are not enough
To explain the magnitude, the passion of my love

Oh, You took everything I was, made me what I am
And with all I am I worship You
Oh, You took everything I was, made me what I am
And with all I am I worship You

You took everything I was, made me what I am
And with all I am I worship You
You took everything I was, made me what I am
And with all I am I worship You

You took everything I was, made me what I am
And with all I am I worship You
You took everything I was, made me what I am
And with all I am I worship You

You took everything I was, made me what I am
And with all I am I worship You
You took everything I was, made me what I am
And with all I am I worship You

You took everything I was, made me what I am
And with all I am I worship You
I worship You, I worship You, I worship You
I worship You, I worship You, I worship You

I worship You, I worship You, I worship You
I worship You, I worship You, I worship You
I worship You, I worship You, I worship You
I worship You, I worship You, I worship You

I worship You, I worship You, I worship You
I worship You, I worship You, I worship You
I worship You, I worship You, I worship You
I worship You, I worship You, I worship You
I worship You

Oh, what an awesome God
Oh, what an awesome God
You are the awesome God
You are the awesome God
Oh, what an awesome God

It will all be worth it, it will all be worth it
For those who do believe that one day
He will crack the sky, I know you can't see it now
But one day I know you will

We see through a glass, but hardly
A glimpse of future glory, but darkly
Oh, what a day imagining what awaits

Amidst all of the criticism
Skeptic views and cynicism
Yet we pray just to see Your face

It will all be worth it, it will all be worth it
For those who do believe that one day
He will crack the sky, I know you can't see it now
But one day I know you will

With every passing of a loved one
The many who've gone on before use
Makes your heartache wondering why the delay

But with every heartbeat your faith grows stronger
And the Lord whispers not much longer
Your soul is stirred and comforted with these words that

It will all be worth it, it will all be worth it
For those who do believe that one day
He will crack the sky, I know you can't see it now, I know

You can't see it now, I know
You can't see it now, I know
You can't see it now, I know

You can't see it now, I know
You can't see it now, I know
You can't see it now, I know

You can't see it now, I know
You can't see it now
But one day I know you will, sure you will

Just finished all of my school work,
Washing the dishes when I heard,
My Mama say she canâ??t do this
Didnâ??t wanna pack up and move on

He was just trying keep it together,
But he couldnâ??t do any better,
We all know daddy was trying,
We saw him praying and crying,

Lord, I donâ??t what to do but what I do know I trust you
I donâ??t what to do but what I do lord is that trust you

Baby itâ??s your decision
Whatâ??s best for you and me and the children
I donâ??t understand what youâ??re doing
What is this mess you got us in?

She walked away disappointed
Then He begin to question what God said
Lord if you donâ??t help me
I just may lose my family

Lord, I donâ??t what to do but what I do know I trust you
I donâ??t what to do but what I do lord is that trust you
Take all my possession and leave me with nothing,
Take all my comfort and leave me in despair,
And Just like in the Bible days when miracles would happen,
Youâ??re still a great God and you can never fail me

Thatâ??s why I trust you and i
I love you cause you proving yourself over and over again
Cantâ?? count just how many times
I needed a friend you were standing right there in life

Thatâ??s why I trust you and i
I love you cause you proving yourself over and over again
Cantâ?? count just how many times
I needed a friend you were standing right there in life

What a friend we have in Jesus
