I Will Not
Datin, Bryann T, Dax Hamma
(Verse 1: Datin) Why don't it end? I've been caught up in the cycle of sin Either I'm feeling prideful within or I'm going through my phone Depends on lust or if I go repent 'Cause I'm feelin' like I'm so condemned But after the guilt fades away, right back to it, I fold again No cap, homie I won't pretend I've been livin' my life so unhinged Tryna do it on my own But then I fold 'cause I don't depend on God But a problem that is too big for me is still micro to Him So I know if I call upon His name He can put me on fight mode to win Real talk, I've been in this Over this, time to climb out It's Jesus' name that I shout from my mouth And if I have to I'll go extreme like I'll cut my hand off and gouge my eye out Read His word, fast and prayers Don't masquerade, I throw the mask away and expose my sin to my closest friends then I practice what pastor has to say I hear His council, I won't reject it The prayers of the righteous are so effective So I call my bros up and ask for prayer when I lack self-control and I'm over tactic Cravings of the flesh feel like a fire blazin' in my chest But I fight back with all I got 'cause the Word said the wage of sin is death My God, that's a step from faith, I'll make a declaration My Bible will not be a decoration Sittin' there open on the dresser waitin' to be read as I go through this deprivation I will not give in so easily to these evil deeds 'cause tripled D is free from the chains of bondage and the grips of Satan If I resist I know that he will flee, let's go (Chorus: Datin) The devil prowls like a lion And the flesh is feelin' defiant And I'm weak within, he tempts me to sin but I resist and deny him I will not (I will not) give in to wicked desires There's victory when I hit my knees, I feel the Spirit liftin' me higher I will not (I will not) I won't allow this shame of mine now He's tellin' me to give in by I will not (I will not) I'm fighting back with all of my mind with the Spirit as my guide (Huh) (Verse 2: Bryann T) Scum of the earth, my heart was colder than Antarctica Concede in sin, my taste for gin create an arsenal Diabolical prodigal from bitter hearts It's remarkable how partakers of wickedness leave the dark They purge this evil from me, never take my Jesus from me I was Barabbas, filled with madness, He brought freedom for me Stripped naked, beaten, spit on with ridicule Humiliated, He died the death of a criminal The middle cross was made for me between them thieves Curious and intrigued with greed and sin was my disease Yeah, He freed me from captivity, no more illegal activity Now my mission is a soul in His ministry You can keep your negativity, hater This persecution is temporary In Jesus, yes our victory's greater I declare you are redeemed, I declare you are forgiven You're loved deeply by the Father You're contagious with conviction You are purchased for purpose, a preparation so perfect If you're patient through the process you'll be ready for service Every person in my circle got God's mercy in my circle Ain't no cursin' in my circle, ain't no serpents in my circle When you're in my environment it's an atmosphere we set for you And even when I come to yours I plan to set the temperature When you're in my environment it's an atmosphere we set for you And even when we come to yours we plan to set your temperature (Chorus: Datin) Devil prowls like a lion And the flesh is feelin' defiant And I'm weak within, he tempts me to sin but I resist and deny him I will not (I will not) give in to wicked desires There's victory when I hit my knees, I feel the Spirit liftin' me higher I will not (I will not) I won't allow this shame of mine now He's tellin' me to give in by I will not (I will not) I'm fighting back with all of my mind with the Spirit as my guide (Huh)
