Album: Thoughts in the Shadows

Intro
Yeah, yeah
Let's ride, ha
I knew I like this the second that I heard it, and I had to get on this one
Shout out BigBoyTraks yeah
Ladies and gentlemen, my name is Josiah Williams
And I came to praise God, yeah

Verse: 1
Through these types of being blindsided I am never blinded never shaded
I seen God's work its personified illustrated
Painted, bright colors on dark canvas to send a message
That there's an outlet to process all your darkest dresses
I gave up tryna navigate on my solo YOLO
Cause true pain don't evaporate it stay on the low low
Increase back when you don't expect it but I express it
That my faith is the reason why I'm so high protected
I've seen living givens off gods commitment
Know that most of my friendships would say the same as a witness Watching a vivid flick of all my personal afflictions
And I've learned with the quickness that Christ is always efficient
Fam listen, these rap songs only show a percentage
I can never make a bar to show the strength of forgiveness
I know that's there a challenge but I ain't planning on quitting
Sunny days aren't a given but through the sun I am living, I believe

Interlude
Yo, the constant pressure turned into better days
And those better days, turned me into a better man, yeah
Through it all it opens me up to make this music, kingdom music Adam Cole undisputed era music you feel me, ha, yeah

Verse: 2
Last album I talked about Wrestlemania most of y'all were convinced that the boy was going crazy
Wrestling like the 80s like Randy Savage
More like Finn Balor the prince
Crazy writing this track while I'm really working for Vince
Can't lie tho it was a struggle let my putting God's secondary
By passing up on this free ride in the seminary
I pray to God that I wasn't changing the track
He told me "Relax, I'm glorified wherever you at"
I've see musclebound giants praising God in their trunks
I've seen guys that y'all admire close their eyes when they stumped
I've gotten texts from Hall of Famer's that tell me "Never give up your passion"
Cause gods doing much more than you could ever imagine
Though I don't know what's ahead of me I ain't going backwards
I'm like ? the day that ? left the raptors
Jesus Christ my heart is been fully captured
I'm fighting for the worlds greatest happily ever after, I believe

Interlude
Yeah. you know, this wrestling flow stuff is cool and what not
But it don't compared to the passion I feel with this Christian hip-hop music
Shout out Dre Dubs, shout out Mikaze, I appreciate both of y'all for listening
Shout out Larry for the inspiration, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Verse: 3
I've been, given a gift I'm giving it right back
Right through these light raps, I'm praising Christ wherever the mics at
I had a slight crack but I never left cause they didn't like that
And Jesus wiped that, he gave me the fuel and gave me the flight track
I'm taking the flight back, I'm climbing the board, I'm wearing a lifejack
I'm ready to strike back, I'm feeling like Keith, I'm feeling like Dijak
And no getting sidetracked, I'm ready to live, I'm taking my life back
I once was blind but I'm wearing glasses got my site back yeah
And this ain't your favorite rappers experiment
This the same message every single time you're hearing it
I don't want confusion that's why I'm making it clear in it
I answer to God that's why I'm putting the fear in it, period
Exclamation this here is my restoration
Hunter told me "Be confident, go address the nations"
And before I make my statements I take a pause in my placement
I tell the Lord is for your glory and greatness, I believe

Outro
Yeah, yeah
I told the Lord it's for your glory and greatness I believe, I believe, I believe, I believe, I believe
Yo wrestle flow, flow, flow, yeah
Let the music ride out
