It's been awhile since I did a cover! Thought the original song was dope, and wanted to put my own take on it along with Jason Chen! Pay attention to the lyrics posted below!

Lyrics:

They try to tell me that it's written in the stars, VERSE, so I'm waiting for my fruit to bear, starbursts/ the work I'm putting in, this is what it's gonna take for me to win, nothing more of woulda coulda shoulda been/ you like my voice, you can call me a smooth talker, or you can call me Mike, but I aint the moon walker/ my skin pale, but I'm far from a Krondon, I keep a Strong Arm Steady eating won ton/ a proud yellow face, represent the yellow race, the game is bittersweet, to me it's a jello taste/ I done served all the haters that would only doubt me, know the name verseatile but not a thing about me/ see the flame, but these lames couldn't even douse me, dragon punching you saggots, won't even see a round 3/ and I've only just begun, RIP Nate Dogg and MJ, the greatest ones

Don't try to pull me down, when I'm meant for higher things, you live for money and fame, I serve a higher king/ we want an easy life, but it's only tiring, expiring our days in the dark, see what the fire brings/ I tend to struggle with the day to day lifestyle, close calls cuz I didn't use a lifestyle/ I tried to brush it off, hoping it would die down, thinking they're mistakes in the past but this is right now/ so weary and weakened, it's so scary I'm thinking, that no barrier can ever prevent it, but I'm focused on the road that I'm headed, sin is no longer my master, under grace, He said it, I read it/ so I try to be a testament of grace and mercy, I can love Christ now cuz he loved me first, see/ oh there he goes again, trying to preach about his faith, you damn right, cuz I know about the souls at stake/

I liked this until you sang 'd*** right'. Putting a cuss word in a rap about Jesus? Really?---'But now you must put them all away: anger, wrath, malice, slander, and obscene talk from your mouth. '-- Colossians 3:8. 'Let there be no filthiness nor foolish talk nor crude joking, which are out of place, but instead let there be thanksgiving.' --Ephesians 5:4....

@lionessofgod91 I appreciate your references - I don't consider the word "damn" as cursing in the context of my verse. I didn't use it in any way to "invoke misfortune" nor "swear". It was simply used to emphasize the importance of my main message - sharing my faith by any means necessary. Being Christian doesn't make me sinless. Christ is my saviour because I sin and struggle, hence the line "testament of grace and mercy" since I wouldn't be here if it wasn't for Him. Hope that brings clarity!

Verseatile, your rap towards the end reminded me to focus on God. I just recently went thru a bad breakup and my world has been shaken up. You eloquence helped me refocus on God and what is really important. You reminded me that there are souls at stake that are greater then what I'm feeling. If I just focus on God things will fall into place...thank you

[verseatilemusic]

@TheChavez42 Brother, thank you so much for sharing. Your comment has blessed me in return! I know that breakups can be disheartening, but keep your head up. Turn to God with your anxieties and heartaches, I promise the peace He provides will be far greater than any relationship you ever come across. Be encouraged that you go through hardship... it means that He's not done with you. God bless & be well always!

[MrGweedorocks]

[Chaingang5005]

Man, I just wished it would featured with "Traphik" as well, that would've been da bomb. But anyways, I was hoping for someone to do something creative for this cover, you guys blew off the roof!!! GREAT JOB, KEEP IT UP!

[archerfire77]

@verseatilemusic I did not intend to start a quarrel, although it appears that these are inevitable on a site like this. I only meant to point out something that I saw was contrary to the Bible. The rest of the song is good. There is a difference between self-rightousness and instruction. I will openly admit I'm as sinful as any human, although I also acknowledge that God's grace is not a license to sin. That's all I have to say; good day.

[verseatilemusic]

@lionessofgod91 Arielle, if you are attacking me with Bible verses for saying the word "damn", not only are your actions being counterproductive in expanding God's love but it clearly shows where your heart is at... self-righteousness. You're missing the BIG picture of the message in this song. I spoke in a language that non-believers can understand and relate to without compromising my beliefs. God knows where my heart was at when I wrote this. Thank you for your visit and thoughts, God bless.
