18 Video (MV)

I've had faith in a man that I did not meet
Stain glass from the past that ain't look like me
Hear the preacher telling stories about his feats
Like water into wine I'm at the edge of my seat
I'm hearing bout the big homie, He's all I wanna be
But I ain't walking on water, I ain't curing disease
In church tryna seek what I won't reach
Like damn is it me that they can't teach
Tryna catch the holy ghost like on TV
Tryna shake and move as all the answers come to me
Now the problem here Mac is you tryna get saved
Asking the bible for all the ways to behave
Jesus was a man just showing the right way
Why would I do different on a day to day?
I think the story is the blueprint
I think it's you that gotta do this
Don't wait to be saved with the power to save
Now I got faith in the man, and the man is me
On the search for god and all I found is me
Looking for things that I can't see
Close my eyes, see the signs, oh god is me
I can feel nothing and still feel the hurt
Growing life from the energy I put in the dirt
Staring at a blank page I can see my work
I can give myself love without saying a word
Now the bounds of the possible
Can't exist in the mind
Take your time
Looking inside
Go see where god hides
I think the scam of religion is it makes you look the wrong way
Looking up in the clouds for the endless love you can find inside you
