Marcus J - Faith or Fate Lyrics

I pray to God
I pray to God
To save ma' soul
One time
Bring it back
I believe religion can't be taught
Yeah
I believe religion can't be taught
Hey hey
Cuz' you Only know your own God
Yeah

Woke up this morning
Enlightened while writing this
Fightin temptation removing any rival
No idol I got no idol
Tha' mirror I'm eyeing but I'm no tiger
Was a dark road so I brought my faith as a lighter
Now enlighten and days getting brighter
Since I focused on that inner script of the bible
Gave me tha man typa' guidance
No father now livin' can guide us
But the one way beyond us
Tha one I trust
Tha face to face
Tha faith that can make me love
I can pray up to
I've been prayin this fo many moons
I'm no Rapper I'm tha poet
Givin' you your baby blues
Cuz' society is growing up way too soon
Sad seein lost souls to life
Jus like me once but I chose to
Be tha inner me not fo news like him her you
Exploiting your life
Livin lavish and nude for next Tha bill due
Damn true
One hell of a life but it could've been heaven too
One hell life but it could've been heaven too
Amen

Religion can't be taught
(Can't be taught)
Religion can't be taught
(Can't be taught)
Yeah
Religion can't be taught
(Can't be taught)
Cuz you only know your way up to God
Only you know your relationship to God
(Faith or fate)
Only you know your relationship to God
(Faith or fate)
Only you know your relationship to God
(Faith or fate)
That's why I say Religion cannot be taught
I say

Each line I write should be worth something
Each line I type should remind you of loving
Each line I write I've tried becomin
A better me from not running
From ma'
Demons Secrets desicisons collisions Money visions
Corruptin myself from winning something more gifted than life
That's already given since born and I'm jus' living
A privilege to praise the soul beyond living
Cuz I know there's somethin' betta' out there fo' me
So I'm forgiving myself and I fo' being a human
Not givin but now I'm forgetting
Cuz money ain't power
I got a powerful feeling
Tha fate feeling
Open up your inner self so you can feel it
I mean it
This is beyond really
But bein' tha inner me not fo news like him her you
Exploiting your life
Livin' lavish and nude for next Tha bill due
Damn true
One hell of a life but it could've been heaven too
Hell of a life but it could've been heaven too
Amen

But I'm sorry Lord
Feeling disappointed that I'm not anointed
Feeling disappointed that I'm not anointed
Feeling disappointed that I'm not anointed
I'm sorry God
Hey
I'm sorry fo bein' ungrateful
I'm sorry that my life is painful
I'm sorry fo bein' ungrateful
I'm sorry God please pray on me
