...Church hurt - had him runnin to the hills
and Church rapper had him needin for the bills
So he switched up, turned state
Got bread, said he stacked cake
But that empty void never filled
A hundred bottles...silence was never killed
His kids he never saw, his wife he never loved
The drugs they took him over and left him up in a slump
The lies they ran rampant, the friends they never stay
Before he took his life, he heard the devil say:
"Got your hand on your gun, what you running from?
(see I don't want that to be you)
Grab the trigger and pull, what you waiting for?"
(I know there's a better way, grace and mercy all the way
...I'm only sayin this cuz I love you)
Coming off the album #G-Code, Milliyon brings a powerful song explaining the potential dangers of looking for short term, financially driven success that isn't based off absolute truth as well as the consequences that could ultimately follow. The featured part of the song is his last verse which I really enjoy, particularly how his warning comes because he loves that person - not telling someone the truth and allowing them to be hurt would in fact be showing a lack of love. I think that's really a powerful statement that Christians today definitely need to hear - it's not always comfortable saying things, but some times it's worth it, especially if you actually do care for that person.
You can stream and download this song for free here and even download Milliyon's entire album for free here.
Best,
