Higher and Higher(spoken over Shoot Me Down Instrumental- Lil Wayne)

Lock in season has begun. Higher and higher is my declaration and testimony going forward!

By Nathaniel TerrellPublished 10 days ago 1 min read

I was cool with playing my position because I fit

Knowing full well I did not belong

How did I stay the course when I was weak?

I kept telling myself that I was strong

The algorithm hates me

God commissioned me

Through darkness I will shine

I listened to disinformation without interrupting

Emotions cut off my rebuttal as I opined

Words are words

No matter how eloquently spoken

Actions and reactions overrule what sounds great

Prayer and fasting

are my defense against spiritual attacks

I can feel the heat from hate

I have exclusive rights to my time and energy

How I feel is the least of my concerns

Some situations birth chaos,

Once I found a woman of virtue

I was thankful for the times that I was curved

Last year the movement started,

it sustained and carried over

I enjoyed watching the final hour go up in smoke

I will raise frequencies with my voice

Angels guard my back

Impossible lies under my toes
