Open Doors - Soc

In this hallway of life we look for open doors

Is it God’s choice or do you take the choice as yours?

Yeah, we got to for watch them open doors

Not every ones that’s opened supposed to be yours

Same way that everything that glitter ain’t gold

We got to take our time like we braiding corn rolls

Not too fast see we better open doors slow

Or we might not make It no more like the ford probe

Or Oldsmobile Alero / chasing that dinero

We don’t want to be Gaylord when he seen De Niro

Approach the father with the respect and reverence

Before we enter it, we better check that address on it

The knock of opportunity can be mistaken by greed

Cloud our sight from what we’d otherwise blatantly see

See ourselves making the g’s, the fame that we need

The whips, chips, the chicks, and the latest of jeans

Like Harold and Kumar when we craving them things

Want to watch it pile up like you raking your leaves

When w walk thru everybody making a scene

Careful — tough to stop that train when it leaves … I’m saying

In this hallway of life we look for open doors

Is it God’s choice or do you take the choice as yours?

Yeah, we got to for watch them open doors

Not every ones that’s opened supposed to be yours

Ain’t nothing new than what is common to man

That’s is coming from the words of Paul and Solomon fam (Ecc 9:1, 1 Cor 10:13)

But we still seek that prominence and

Influence.

Pride, naw we can’t swallow it’s bland

That MTV life, we don’t need it that’s what we say

But we crave reality like a VJ

Interest in the money like key bank

While we say «blessed and highly favored» so cliché

We all got pride — talk that «I want to see me»

I’m just trying to assist — like cp3

But while I’m playing I’d love to sell more mp3s

And be on top like Duke the ACC

So we look for new doors at the home depot

Can’t satisfy the thirst like we need more

Searching for doors — the hallway’s hard enough

Watch that open door is it’s not the Father calling us

In this hallway of life we look for open doors

Is it God’s choice or do you take the choice as yours?

Yeah, we got to for watch them open doors

Not every ones that’s opened supposed to be yours

Just wait for it — don’t force it open

Is it really His will — are you the one controlling

With Christ interceding and that’s for real though

That Bread of Life, that’s for real dough

And ain’t no cameras or photographs

We’re to be examples, yeah I know, where’s the show in that?

That’s why we need to lie still like in a coma black

And if it didn’t come from Him, we need to throw it back

Listen to for His voice (The Spirit), we need to trust in (Jesus)

Not needed nothing else, (Yahwey) just Him

But we say the same old thing like Teddy Ruxpin

And want to run our own temptations like we David Ruffin

Then we turn stage prop and we make a scene

I wish this analogy was simply make believe

At times our eyesight, it be like Ray and Steve’s

But blatantly where I am now is made for me

In this hallway of life we look for open doors

Is it God’s choice or do you take the choice as yours?

Yeah, we got to for watch them open doors

Not every ones that’s opened supposed to be yours

Want to throw deep, don’t want to block and tackle

Don’t want to dribble when you walk, but don’t want to travel

Them basics or what have you

You got to watch that threshold that you pass through

Or family matter or relationship

No matter what u facing kid, make sure the praises lift

Trust me you can fall off like the Pacer’s did

And instead of the Rover maybe the Pacer’s it

And if you got the range, you better watch it man

You could lose your #1 like the Rockets (dang)

If it’s God’s will, I mean I’m good with that

The wrong door cracked open, I just pull it back

And maybe you too, rock like U2

Want to increase in my hits, too much you tube

Feeling like you in reverse and others flew through

But in the long run … yeah who knew

If it don’t unlock when we try the key

The whole world is in His hands, why are we fighting Him

Then one who makes thunderclap and the lightning

With the peace of Christ we content and listen quietly (shhh)
