Familiar Stranger


 

 

Intro:

Who is this?
Hello…Hey baby what’s going on?
Listen I don’t want to talk about this right now.
Exactly what I said I don’t want to talk about it right now.
Cause I don’t know how that stuff got on the computer!
Why are you so upset right now? Okay, okay, we’ll just talk about it later when I get home. Alright, okay, bye!

Verse 1:

There’s a man who’s a stranger in his own home, or maybe like an unfamiliar face to better put it, he supports his wife and 3 sons, he wants his legacy to be that of a wise man, providing what’s necessary, seeing past the conventional, investing in the future so his seeds can live comfortable, but I wonder if he can see the poverty within their  features, those seeds need water, his family needs a teacher lest they’ll fall into a pit trying to follow a blind leader, and figures his life is on track cause he’s prosperous, but the fact that he aint living for Jesus, don’t even bother him, until he’s in church, but his pride won’t let him swallow it, he’s scared to death to submit everything inside of him, and this man is cursed, and now he living just to die, and the salvation that he found in wealth was all a lie, and now his youngest son is screaming and crying out for his daddy, cause the decisions his father made, just made him unhappy.

Hook:
What kind of man are you? (4x)

Verse 2:

There’s a man who’s a stranger to his wife, he says that he loves her, how much does he, when he stares at another, covets what he can’t have and lusts because its pleasing, its easy to see that purity is what he’s needing, but what he’s not seeing is his decisions carry like genetics to his own seed, all because he’s self seeking, every man does it is his reasoning, he’s feeding his flesh, and now he sees his son, struggle with the same thing, and he can’t help, cause the sin his son struggles with, he’s still dealing with himself, and his wife feels insecure, which is creating a distance, and he hears his wife screaming, but he’s never really listening, and he never stops, just to see that little girl within his wife, who’s asking him if she beautiful, but he’s got this picture that as long as he’s providing, that’s all that’s required for his family to survive, and figures his life is on track cause he’s monogamous, but the fact that he got sin in his heart, don’t even bother him, until he’s in church, but his pride won’t let him swallow it, he’s scared to death to submit everything inside of him, and this man is cursed, and now he living just to die, and the pleasure that he found in lust was all a lie, and his wife is screaming and crying out for her husband, cause he says he loves her but then he acts like he doesn’t.

Hook

Verse 3:

Can you see the man, can you see the issue, does he live around you, or does he live within you, can you see the man, with the broken map, that’s in his hand, and he’s hoping that, it’ll lead him to, what he’s searching for, but what he’s searching for, it hurts him even more, why is he doing this, I just want to ask him, what are you looking for, Hey!, what are you looking for?

Hook (2x)

Outro:

Lord, I know that only you can fix me, you can help me see what’s inside of me that’s keeping me from being the man I need to be.

Father, I pray and I know that only you can make me a better man, that’s what I’m asking you God, make me into a better man Lord, look inside of me and clean me Father.
