Roots on the westside and the gold coast
My stomping grounds was downtown
Never sold dope
Or hung around the wrong crowd

Single parented home
An older brother by 5 years
Plenty fights here
Emotional, i would fight tears

Arguments erupted
I always felt interrupted
Baby of the family
Hating i was the youngest
Ailing was my stomach
No food in the home
Mama doing what she could on her own
Dating but feeling alone

We were poor
You clean toilets
I wash floors
Custodian chores
Prop doors
And wash more

But do it like a man with super powers (super powers)
So we can go and hoop a few hours (hours)

At "the gym"
The solheim center
Lady running the camp had some s-s-s-s-so fine in her

So i started paying attention more
I mastered my left hand
Shot or lay up, i can score
And i know

Our god is an awesome god
He reigns from heaven above
With wisdom, power and love
Our god is an awesome god
A-w-e-s-o-m-e
Awesome (awesome, awesome), majestic
Yes, almighty
My god is a-w-e-s-o-m-e
Awesome (awesome, awesome), majestic
Yes, almighty

I remember them towel coats and high tops
With bball pumps (remember dat?)
Hammer pants, wanting to dance and be all pump

I had a tall pump designed with lines on the side
My shirt was tie dyed, (yes it was) many colors

Me and my bother had a fro
But, before that, we rocked the box
After the fades and braids (tell em)
Lemont copped the locs (dreads)

Reeboks, dookie braids and looped earrings
"my country tis of thee" was the song we used to sing
Before when we started (come on!)

A time when that was okay
Now you hear me harboring memories bout back in the day
'cause alot of things that was, it ain't no mo'
Am i the only one noticing we don't pray no mo'
Up in the schools
That's why we're slow at censoring what we listen to (come on!)
Ask yourself, "what am i giving more attention to"

Ain't no way we gon' wait
Too many souls are at stake
Another chance just to show em the way

Our god is an awesome god
He reigns from heaven above
With wisdom, power and love
Our god is an awesome god

A-w-e-s-o-m-e

It was my brother, lemont & me
Learning phony ways of getting monopoly

Bootlegging dooney & bourke
Doing it worked, for awhile
As a child, i saw momma smile and cry
Working two jobs, so me & my brother's style was fly
I wondered awhile why

It was only the 3 of us
And why it was only on saturday's daddy was getting us
I had to forgive and trust

Truly tracing my heart
Breaking apart particles that were making it hard
To regenerate and start the mark

Over again
I know it was sin that had me thinking, no, it was him
Who held me back
I failed and lacked humility
In fact, it seemed to weaken my ability to act

After that was unpacked and everything got out, yeah
I knew i could only find peace in god's house
Now, he loves in me, no matter how or what it seems
And through faith i'll make it as long as in him, i believe

Our god is an awesome god
He reigns from heaven above
With wisdom, power and love
Our god is an awesome god

A-w-e-s-o-m-e
Awesome (awesome, awesome), , majestic
Yes, almighty
My god is a-w-e-s-o-m-e
Awesome (awesome, awesome), majestic
Yes, yes, yes, yes

Awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome
Awesome, awesome, awesome
