Hey Ben you know what to do

You know you have an issue

But really do you?

Because I know you better than anyone else

I know how you hurt, I know that it’s hell

That you can’t escape that you fell in a well

But man you know that god loves you

You know that god trusts you

You know he knows your heart

He knows you work hard

He knows that you struggle sometimes

He knows sometimes your spiritually blind

But when are you gonna forgive yourself


I’d like to know Ben

What will it take to feel 10/10

What will take to feel the zen

Go ahead wake up Ben wake up

Show us your face and shake up


Lemme tell you something.

God is your friend not your enemy

He wouldn’t make me feel bad he would take it from me

I know your confused because I’m you

Maybe it’s me who’s you

Or maybe it’s you who’s you

I don’t care to see through

Your flaws your issues one of the dues

That you pay every night because of that dude

Who screws with you until you feel like you do

Where you wanna give up and you can’t sleep cuz he threw

Something at you you weren’t ready for and snuck in your shoe

But come on when are you going to see

The beauty of you and of me

When are you gonna notice the things that you see

When are you gonna be the person you wanna be

When are you gonna get over it, tonight hopefully?

No.

No.

No.

Not hopefully, you will be free if you believe

You will escape he will be what you need

But just FORGIVE YOURSELF RIGHT NOW

Right now get on your knee

Feel his love his affection his vow

To you he loves you, he doesn’t make you doubt

Get that out of your head out of that spout

Spit the words you are all about

It’s weird why don’t you listen to yourself

Why don’t you understand your beautiful, don’t sell

Yourself short don’t be scared

Get up walk around be more aware

It’s time to leave this burden over there

And keep it away from yourself and stare

Right at the scriptures you study, you dare

Because if you don’t fix it soon, god will make it fair

He will take you and make sure you understand

He ain’t gonna let the devil mess with you and get into his land

He will defend you if it’s the last he does

You are his son you are his cub

You will be saved because of his love

JUST WAKE UP.


Sometimes the best ways to cope are found through conversation with yourself.

The longest stretch of the book, and the loudest. Most of these carry a date and an album.
