INTRO
Uh, though I walk through the darkness
Yeah, Lord I know you’re with me
Uh, I’m ready for battle, Let’s go
VERSE 1
Down-south raised in MC Comb, Mississippi
Hometown rooted so I know the Lord is with me
East coast, West coast, North I know you feel me
So blow your horns loud for the King if you’re with me
Through a hard knock life she tried to make it on her own
Daddy wasn’t there and her mama stayed gone
At the age of 15 having kids of her own
Hopped into the fast life popping pills staying blown
Not realizing that this only was a gateway
She got addicted to the games that the street played
Coke habits the drugs that the street gave
Prostituting doing anything to get paid
Her whole life she was wishing on a star
A lost soul with no hope for tomorrow
But she can change if she open up her heart
Forget about her past and give her life to God
CHORUS
In the Kingdom streets are paved with gold no more crying
I’m on an assignment for the Kingdom
Stay on the battlefield till you get there i’ll meet you in the air
In the Kingdom Kingdom Kingdom
VERSE 2
New York, New York (Yeah!)
He was a victim of the struggle
Bed stuy Brookyln making money from the hustle
Copped his first coupe moving weight like a pusher
With his decked out ride candy paint all custom
Got addicted to the block in is early years
Years passed friends died shed so many tears
Not to mention he was brought up on his on own
Fathered by the streets and his mom he never known
He came close to death so many times
Been shot, stabbed, beaten but he still survived
The only love was his love for the streets
Hustling everyday getting money by any means
His whole life he was wish on the stars
A lost soul with no hope for tomorrow
But he can change if he open up his heart
Forget about the past and give his life to God
CHORUS
In the Kingdom streets are paved with gold no more crying
I’m on an assignment for the Kingdom
Stay on the battlefield till you get there I’ll meet you in the air
In the Kingdom Kingdom Kingdom
VERSE 3
So if you’re knocked down hard
And you’re running from fear
Just believe baby God’s got a blessing to spare
Through the rains and the storm his slavation is real
He paid it all on the cross just to free us from sin
Cause even death could hold him down
When then gray skies departed (he arose) to reclaim his crown
So with every last breath imma praise him loud
Imma scream it from the valley to the mountain top
I give thanks and I worship his name (yeah)
Without Christ in my life I wouldn’t be the same
Through the hell and the fire that he whence forth came
I give praises to his holy name
So don’t spend your life wishing on a star (yeah)
Being a lost soul with no hope for tomorrow
But you can change if you open up your heart
Forget about the past and give it to God
CHORUS
In the Kingdom streets are paved with gold no more crying
I’m on an assignment for the Kingdom
Stay on the battlefield till you get there I’ll meet you in the air
In the Kingdom Kingdom Kingdom
BRIDGE
Can’t wait till I get to the big city
Pearly gates, mansions, angels singing
Earthly minds could never imagine
Till the day my God says well done, yeah, yeah,yeah, yeah!
CHORUS
In the Kingdom streets are paved with gold no more crying
I’m on an assignment for the Kingdom
Stay on the battlefield till you get there I’ll meet you in the air
In the Kingdom Kingdom Kingdom
