Verse 1 First thing’s first. Glory to the Most High And also to His Son, The King, Jesus Christ. For bein' my Redeemer ‘cause He paid the price Through His shed blood on the cross. What a sacrifice!
Nothin’ else in this solar system will suffice If we wish to live eternally in Paradise. I was lost in sin. Chasin’ cheese, blinded like some mice. Amazed, goin’ the through the days.. I ain’t know my rights.
My rights. My free will. Wit’ it comes power. Power to believe in the Highest Power, in this hour. Listen, don’t listen to Satan tryna say you a coward If you repent of yo’ sins. Don’t allow pride to sprout up.
Under the Old Covenant we would kill animals. Before Jesus came there was no permanent antidote. But now He’s mediator between God and man for sure. One way to the Father, but His saving ways are manifold.
Hook: I’m just tryna.. (Yeah.) I’m just tryna.. (Yeah.) I’m just tryna give thanks To the High Priest, Christ Jesus for givin’ me faith. They may call me a loser, an L7, a lame, Tryna see if I’m gon’ break, but I’m gon' keep praisin’ His name. (Yeah.)
I’m just tryna.. (Yeah.) I’m just tryna.. (Yeah.) I’m just tryna give thanks To the High Priest, Christ Jesus for givin’ me faith. I don’t do this for fortune. I don’t do this for fame. I’m just tryna tell you why He came and why I keep praisin’ His name.
Verse 2: Every chance I get I’m tryna come through yo’ speakers. My message to believers: it’s time to dig deeper. But I pray for everybody to be truth seekers. Protect yo’ ears and yo’ heart. Beware of false preachers,
Who administer doctrines of devils from evil thresholds.. Not preachin’ the Gospel at all, yet actin’ so special. As disciples we can’t put new wine in old vessels. If we really wanna follow Him, shouldn’t we crucify our flesh so??
We can be baptized of water, fire, and His Holy Spirit. Keepin’ our nose in the Word. I can’t help but to be near it. Pourin’ my heart out in every song don’t you hear these lyrics? Relayin’ the Gospel to strangers and so my peeps can hear it.
Sometimes it seems like my friends and fam don’t understand. (I’m just tryna, I’m just tryna,) obey all His commands. We can say we have faith, but what about godly love? I love you enough to tell you about the comin’ Kingdom from above. (Yuh).

Verse 3: A new covenant brings new order. New laws. When we operate in the Spirit there are no flaws. Will we keep worshippin’ the Law of the Levites Or humble ourselves and worship the Jew, Jesus Christ??
Now that’s a serious question that I’m posin’. Do we have eyes to see? Must we readjust our focus? Pharisees accused the Lord of bein’ above the Law of Moses. Well, He IS the Law and the Prophets. The scripture can not be broken.
So, believe it or not, it was a just type and a shadow. Yet, many stumble at the Law within this spiritual battle. The Law, serves its purpose showin’ us we’re ALL transgressors. If the Law gets us to Heaven we must remain a debtor.
And NEVER EVER mess up ‘cause when we His face Will our works save us or is it God’s grace through keepin’ faith? The things I say may seem foolish but it’s so simple: My salvation’s in the Lord. My body’s the temple.
