Promise Lyrics by Christian Rey

Freedom Cage

2018

Came from the dust, and dust I will return
Came from my heart, but your love I couldn’t earn
Ya I know Im young, and got a lotta learn
Just wish your lessons didn’t come with all of the burns but
Guess I gotta learn to accept it
You fell for someone else the moment it was presented
Was showing you commitment still wish you would had seen it
You knew what you were doing Im just wishing you said it
Guess Im growing when Im going through the trenches
Seemed to learn the most when my faith is tested
Lord knows I
Need it from being conceded seem to see it in your eyes when you
Buy the lie he’s a better guy
No wonder Im under all this weight you can’t relate too
I thank god that god blessed me with a new view
You caught up with another man, Im caught up with the praying hands
So I guess we both got someone new to look to
Lesson learned
Now Im feeling love I ain’t even had to earn
Turned out your other lover didn’t love you in return
Asking where Ive been but thats none of your concern
Guess Im not the only one now paying attention
Guess Im not the only one thats feeling the tension
Guess Im not the only one now praying for blessings
Guess Im not the only one thats learning a lesson
All I did was what I can
Ya I thought we had a plan
Now you chase another man
Cause you couldn’t keep a promise
All I did was what I can
Ya I thought we had a plan
Now you chase another man
Cause you couldn’t keep a promise
Ya you raised the stakes
Forcing me to grow up due to your mistakes
Chasing god through facades I face
Still a mystery our history is something you'd erase
Ya you raised the stakes
Forcing me to grow up due to your mistakes
Chasing god through facades I face
Still a mystery our history is something you'd erase
Progress a necessity
Guarding everything thing God been revealing to me
Otherwise Im feeling all the pain like Im praying in the garden of Gethsemane
Who Im tryna be
Is someone with unchanging identity
You arrested my hope in hopes of cutting our rope I know you that you know
That alone gotta be a type of felony, ya
How can we be so blind
Tangled in our mistakes need to unwind
Learning to find the truth behind all the lies
Learning to find ourselves behind our disguise
So we’ll go our separate ways, ya
Thats ok cause my faith ain’t rely on anything you
Say anyway ya Im grounded
Realized I never fell out of love, ya I found it
Dying to myself on the daily maybe you can try something new
And stop acting shady lately you just look away when I pull through
Ya I know you know its a shame Im the shot that you blew but
The deeper the play the deeper the cut
A keeper I was but a door that you shut
Now Im on my game cause I counted the cost
And you on the sidelines cause you counted the loss, uh
All I did was what I can
Ya I thought we had a plan
Now you chase another man
Cause you couldn’t keep a promise
All I did was what I can
Ya I thought we had a plan
Now you chase another man
Cause you couldn’t keep a promise
Ya you raised the stakes
Forcing me to grow up due to your mistakes
Chasing god through facades I face
Still a mystery our history is something you'd erase
Ya you raised the stakes
Forcing me to grow up due to your mistakes
Chasing god through facades I face
Still a mystery our history is something you'd erase
Gods been showing me Im just not who I used to be
Been tangled in all these heartbreaks but shows me whats really at stake, I
Think Im going crazy but he just keeps reminding me
Its not a loss its a lesson, your not the boss of your blessings, I
I just need a breathe cause my life seems too relentless
Its sending me mixed messages so he looked down and said to me, my
My feet once touched the ground and the second I made a sound
It was death that they put me through and I made sure it was for you
Gods been showing me Im just not who I used to be
Been tangled in all these heartbreaks but shows me whats really at stake, I
Think Im going crazy but he just keeps reminding me
Its not a loss its a lesson, your not the boss of your blessings, I
I just need a breathe cause my life seems too relentless
Its sending me mixed messages so he looked down and said to me, my
My feet once touched the ground and the second I made a sound
It was death that they put me through and I made sure it was for you
