Some words can hit the heart like an atomic bomb
Another Hiroshima, disaster strikes someone call FEMA
I was transformed when I became a believer
And I want to achieve like Akeela
But does that mean I have to crush someone else to be the best
How many heads do I have on, on this ladder to success
When greatness comes, how you handle it is the test
Your actions show, but your intentions show the rest

Sometimes we wanna think we doing right when we not
Say one thing, but on the side have a whole different plot
Things and people we misuse, manipulate and abuse
When we look away, the sight of the original visions what we loose
Sometimes our motivations are all wrong
Reading made up lines of a script cause we want to play along
Were there good intentions to begins with? Maybe from the start
But by the finish line sometimes we change in the heart

Lets see, if you, steal from the rich and give to the poor
Looks honorable but what side are you really fighting for
Ask yourself, was it that bad you had to take from someone else
Cause when you reject justice all you hurt is yourself
And what about slaves, making them work your pay
Or Jews in cold cage, the camps was like a winter for days
And the world was fooled, and they looked the other way
In both cases they made it seem like it was for bettering the people
In reality what they were doing was all evil
They try to make it sound good, but they don’t have good intentions
All this has drawn to my attention so I
Ask God to remind me to keep my intentions in line
Cause when your rapping in this world they can easily slip your mind
The passion, the promise, the purpose, the light
An instrument sounding His truth to save lives
