HIS - Christian Hedonism Lyrics

Getting money was my main attraction
I was working it for certain it was really happening
The reason....
I was on a hunt for satisfaction
Quick to spark the beef up in the streets I was in needing action
I hearing voices in my head I think they even laughing
Thoughts in my head of being happy wasn't really lasting
That's facts...
I was attracted to the latest fashion
Dressing clean with latest things it's like a chain reaction
What's happening

Thinking back when I was lost
I wanted to be a boss
I thought that was the way to live not caring about the cost
Flashing cars and diamond rings I'm living like king
Not realizing they don't last they temporary things
It something better that doesn't involve cheddar
It's not price or business traction from being clever
It's not scheme or an illusion like you in a dream
You can't imagine what's prepared by king of kings

Christianity was far from me like seven seas
It was a money making atm is what I seen
Jumping around and rolling on the ground like dope fiends
Music playing heavy metal sounds is how it seemed
I had to leave from all screams it wasn't meant for me
It seemed like everywhere I went the gospel was extinct
That's when I found out being happy was to find the truth
And then I ran across John Piper preaching to the roof

I'm learning about the resurrection of the king of kings
Defeating sin and death in victory he holds keys
Death in the body and eternal life is what he offer
Trust and believing in the son of man ain't at the alter
Accepting Jesus Christ as lord and savior ain't the way
Repenting from your sins and trust him is how you pray
In the beginning was the word and the word is God
The word became flesh you can find that in the book of John
