Walking
A Brighter Light Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
and see what you gotta see
Take a walk with me
and be who you gotta be
Take a walk with me
It ain't too late to believe
Never let it go gotta let it show
A Walking Testimony deep inside of me
Only if they knew the half of what I been through
some days were better than others, but look I made it through
grew up as youngin parents kept me in the church
you would've thought that would have kept me from doing my dirt
an eager adolescent thinking that he above the law
momma couldn't tell me nothing I felt I knew it all
out here in them streets running, ducking, dodging, trouble
Little did I know the price on my soul had doubled
the enemy was out to get me man he tried to slick me
I was left but I detoured to the right
into the hands of my father now I'm living life
A Walking Testimony no mo pain & no mo strife
Take a walk with me
and see what you gotta see
Take a walk with me
and be who you gotta be
Take a walk with me
It ain't too late to believe
Never let it go gotta let it show
A Walking Testimony deep inside of me
When I was younger I was told you get one shot at life
So i treaded very lightly tryna live it right
living 2 lives 1 foot in and 1 foot out
living this thing called life tryna figure it out
pocket full of cash, blowing gas, rolling swishas
No need for me to say no mo I think you get the picture
tryna live that street life it ain't all glitz and glamour
it only leads to 2 roads DEATH OR THE SLAMMER
I got a family it was time for me to get it right
so I can raise my sons up to walk a better life
I'm not the perfect man but Lord knows I really try
A Walking Testimony till the day I'm flying high
Take a walk with me
and see what you gotta see
Take a walk with me
and be who you gotta be
Take a walk with me
It ain't too late to believe
Never let it go gotta let it show
A Walking Testimony deep inside of me
Walk with me
Walk with me
Walk with me
Walk with me
Walk with me
Walk with me

If only others knew the extent of my challenges
some days were better than others, but look I made it through
Despite ups and downs, I persevered

As a teenager, I felt invincible
momma couldn't tell me nothing I felt I knew it all
I resisted guidance and thought I knew everything

Engaging in reckless behaviors and extravagance
No need for me to say no mo I think you get the picture

tryna live that street life it ain't all glitz and glamour
Attempting to live a dangerous lifestyle isn't glamorous
it only leads to 2 roads DEATH OR THE SLAMMER
It ultimately results in fatal consequences or prison
I got a family it was time for me to get it right
My family motivated me to change my ways
so I can raise my sons up to walk a better life
I aspire to guide my children towards a better future
I'm not the perfect man but Lord knows I really try
I acknowledge my imperfections and continuously strive for improvement
A Walking Testimony till the day I'm flying high
