[Intro: TobyMac]
When I was just a young boy
On the back of my daddy's real estate business card were the words:
"What does it profit a man to gain the whole world and lose his soul?"
I can't say I knew what it meant back then y'all, but I sure do now
[Verse 1: TobyMac & DiverseCity]
Father God, I am clay in your hands
I wanna stay that way through all life's demands
'Cause they chip and they nag and they pull at me
And every little thing I make up my mind to be
Like I'ma be a daddy who's in the mix
And I'ma be a husband who stays legit
And I pray that I'm an artist who rises above
The road that is wide and filled with self love
Evеrything that I see draws me
Though it's only in You that I can truly see
That it's a feast for the еyes, a low blow to purpose
And I'm a little kid at a three-ring circus
[Chorus: TobyMac, DiverseCity, Both]
I don't wanna gain the whole world and lose my soul
(Don't wanna walk away, let me hear those people say)
I don't wanna gain the whole world and lose my soul
(Don't wanna walk away, let me hear) Mr. Gabe Real (Let me hear)
