As the Hour Draws Near Feat. Evangel and Ant

As the hour draws near to take my last breath
 I'm not quite sure how much time I have left
 I'm walking the path of all the strugglers who died
 And I'm in fear of what awaits me on the other side
 As the hour draws near to take my last breath
 I'm not quite sure how much time I have left
 I'm walking the path of all the strugglers who died
 And I'm in fear of what awaits me on the other side
 Who knew that I'd be shook up
 as I look up to the heavens and see it's near with I.V.s hooked up?
 Like secrets it was nice to be kept by Christ
 Now every night's a deep sweat from a life of regrets
 The thrill is gone- was faith real? Not fake like silicon?
 Frontin like it's "Ok" like Lil' Jon- was spilling sobs
 My will was drawn to this common façade
 Lord, now I repent for each dent in Your armor of God
 Knowing this: it's Your name that we defraud
 Without holiness, no one shall see the Lord
 My heart I can't mask from You- don't wanna be a part of Your massacre
 Please don't stop my cardiovascular
 I hope I repped C-H-R-I-S-T
 And sported Him so good I could win an Espy like Wayne Gretsky
 Lord put my heart at ease, please before I decrease my BP
 And they're saying "Clear! I need Cc's!
 I think I'm losing him!" Because I'm bruised from sin within
 And don't think I'll see Your New Jerusalem
 You're just, Lord- I need to be assured
 I'm unsure and insecure that where sin abounds Your grace did much more
 I need to get confidence believing Your promises
 Of Jesus' accomplishments, not help from the drug store
 Because mostly my reputation was count the world as defecation
 Yet I proceed with trepidation
 As the hour draws near to take my last breath
 I'm not quite sure how much time I have left
 I'm walking the path of all the strugglers who died
 And I'm in fear of what awaits me on the other side
 As the hour draws near to take my last breath
 I'm not quite sure how much time I have left
 I'm walking the path of all the strugglers who died
 And I'm in fear of what awaits me on the other side
 Sin was strong and my deadliest foe
 Steady wrong- am I ready to go?
 I pray to God because it's hard to accept- my heart's heavy, you know
 I'm not sure if I'm ready to go
 Although You had promised I would live again
 For believing in Jesus I'm forgiven yet I'm shivering from hidden sin
 Because in the back of my mind, I knew I struggled as my past time
 Now I'm scared to... flatline

 As the hour draws near to take my last breath
 I'm not quite sure how much time I have left
 I'm walking the path of all my brothers who died
 And I'm prepared for what awaits me on the other side
 As the hour draws near to take my last breath
 I'm not quite sure how much time I have left
 I'm walking the path of all my brothers who died
 And I'm prepared for what awaits me on the other side
 Life was quick, but these last breaths seem the longest
 I'm on the brink of entering everything that You promised
 My heart skips thinking of what I'll be in a moment
 This joy is undeniably precious fruit of atonement
 I cry tears of happiness because looking back
 I see the track that You sovereignly mapped for me- I see immaculate(ly)
 The cross of Christ, His awesome price and Your grace that carried me
 I persevered in shadows of brothers who marked the path for me
 In just a few breaths I'll walk into a marriage feast
 And taste of Your goodness without getting a cavity
 Your majesty will light up the city that we'll inhabit
 And the Lamb will be the lamp in the middle- there'll be no P.M.
 I tremble at the fact that I'll be captured
 By the blazing glory of the One that I've been waiting to see and I'll see Him
 To see His face and worship perpetually won't be boring
 Because this flesh won't be a hitch anymore- I'll be restored
 To new morning after morning- and cause You bled
 Death I'll leave here on this hospital bed
 And step into the presence of the Bridegroom in heaven
 No more valleys to tread or trek through
 or leaven to fight against- all things will be made new
 No struggling to pray, we'll sing of Your glory with angels
 I'm eager to go- I know I'm a part of Your kingdom
 Upon Christ's deeds I'll see bliss when the beep comes
 My life was long and I'm ready to go
 I stood strong and I'm ready to go
 I can't wait to sing along with the throng up in heaven, you know
 It's where I belong- I'm ready to go
 My sneakers are worn down hard from running this marathon in the trenches
 Was far from pretending, pressed on with repentance
 So now it's time for me to pass the baton
 And at long last, I'll pass on into heaven

 As the hour draws near to take my last breath
 I'm not quite sure how much time I have left
 I'm walking the path of all the others who died
 And I don't care what awaits me on the other side
 As the hour draws near to take my last breath
 I'm not quite sure how much time I have left
 I'm walking the path of all the others who died
 And I don't care what awaits me on the other side
 In a hospital bed, blood clots in my head
 Body chock full of meds and I got to be fed
 through a tube- I'm comatose, wet food- aroma's gross
 Pursued lewd moods as a refuge- overdose
 Frantic seizure, life empty, scary demanded leisure
 Anesthesia, temporary amnesia
 I'm found in this predicament surrounded by significant
 others, my mother- it's crowded and I'm listening
 I hear a person's voice that I don't recognize
 praying for me- It must be a reverend and his lies
 Nurse checking in my eyes- ain't getting no replies
 If she knew I heard everything, I bet she'd be surprised
 My family's upsetting me with cries, what they crying for?
 If I could speak, I'd ask the reverend what he lying for?
 He said something about believing in the Lord
 That's ridiculous- we all know that Jesus was a fraud
 Atheism is logical, blind faith is comical
 Seven-day creation and Satan are mythological
 The Bible's full of statements made by men
 Who were shaken- too scared to face the end
 The reverend said, "Don't be hostile to the gospel- choose it"
 The only gospel I like is gospel music
 He said if I understood him take my finger and wiggle one
 But if I could have I would have gave him the middle one
 Because he's wrong and I'm ready to go
 Son, I'm strong, yo I'm ready to go
 If it's on then it's on- bring it on
 I'm ready to go, let's get it on son, I'm ready to go
 I'm anticipating hitting the essence
 I'll crash through the gate in minutes or seconds
 His antics are fake so I'm dissin' the reverend
 My last action- shaking my fist at the heavens!
