A MILLION Lyrics by YakiTheKid

THIS IS NOT A DRILL

2024

[Chorus]
I used to play for the world
Now I go hard for the King (That’s right)
Death had a grip on the boy (He did)
‘Hova done gave me the keys (Gave me the keys)
I used to think that money and cars the way that you seein’ success
I stand corrected, somebody go tell Satan the kid is a threat
Look around, it’s a world war
Speaking truth what I’m good for
Man I gotta play the role I was given, I ain’t wishing I could do more
What He did was enough
Broke the chains on my cuffs
Never thirsty, cuz I’m steady sippin’ on that living water out the cup (On that water)
I couldn’t stand tryna keep titles, started thumbin’ through the Bible (In that Word)
Been too long sitting up on the shelf, now I’m building up my spiritual wealth
I surrender, couldn’t do it myself
Had to turn to Messiah for help
I see a million times that I failed
That be a million times He prevailed (Woo)

[Verse]
No hesitation, I’m ready to rumble
The Father done picked me up out of the rubble
Demons running cuz they know they in trouble
Devil gunnin’ cuz he know he in trouble (Ha)
100, but I gotta stay humble
I ain’t worried ‘bout the route to the top
When you find true joy as a servant, you ain’t gotta try to be at the top
I’m moving fast, no I cannot stop
You send me a beat, I might have to pop
Jesus Christ never slept on the cross, so I don’t rest after making a drop (Woo)
On my chest be a chain with a cross, I don’t wear it cuz I’m tryna be trendy
I’m just a messenger, rocking the cross in case you wondering who sent me
God made a wretch to weapon, I don’t like to flex cuz the world is irrelevant (Yeah)
Material things like money and fame like peanuts to an elephant (They small)
In the beginning I thought it was sweet, thought I could take the elevator there
God running tests on my loyalty, He told me brother you taking the stairs (Ha)
It can get tough, I cannot lie
I gotta put my desires aside
Big flash, gotta walk in the light
Big splash, I’m a fisher for Christ
Bad flesh, can’t be feeding a lie
Get tempted, I gotta rely
All on the fact that the King will return, this world ain’t my home but I gotta survive
I’m just a vessel, I carry the message
I walk with the Spirit, He give me direction
I ain’t gotta keep a stick for protection, I’m shooting Scripture in every direction
I don’t wanna keep the media guessing, it should be easy to see my intention
Way you can measure if I’m putting in work, is if you see Christ in Yaki reflection

[Chorus]
I used to play for the world
Now I go hard for the King (That’s right)
Death had a grip on the boy (He did)
‘Hova done gave me the keys (Gave me the keys)
I used to think that money and cars the way that you seein’ success
I stand corrected, somebody go tell Satan the kid is a threat
Look around, it’s a world war
Speaking truth what I’m good for
Man I gotta play the role I was given, I ain’t wishing I could do more
What He did was enough
Broke the chains on my cuffs
Never thirsty, cuz I’m steady sippin’ on that living water out the cup (On that water)
I couldn’t stand tryna keep titles, started thumbin’ through the Bible (In that Word)
Been too long sitting up on the shelf, now I’m building up my spiritual wealth (Yeah)
I surrender, couldn’t do it myself
Had to turn to Messiah for help
I see a million times that I failed
That be a million times He prevailed (Woo)
