Verse 3
That was much easier (B minor) to say
a couple dollars ago
That was much easier to say
a couple albums ago (C major)
That was a (B minor) piece of cake to say
before I got on the road
Landing a record deal with Cross
Movement was not in my goals
Verse 4
When I say that (B minor) man I mean it
but I'm at war with myself
Due to the roars and the applause
and the awards on my shelf (C major)
(B minor) Plus the allure of more wealthman I know
what I storeit's gone melt
Sometimes I'm torn and so I'm
drawnback to the floors that I've knelt
Verse 5
But the closer I (B minor) get to God,
the more I know that it's nothing
All of my things and my achievements
man I wanna (C major) throw 'em in the oven
Burn (B minor) 'em upI'm hurt enough
about the Jones' I covet
And I hate the fact that I want more of what
I can't have like Ocean's Eleven
Verse 6
Though I'm known in (B minor) the publicnot a king
when I walk in your service
I'm no better then my Lordman I know
then I'm only (C major) a servant
If you (B minor) see me help with chairs don't
tell me that I'm a king
I already know that but I gotta show that
I ain't gotta wear diamond ring (C major) s
Before I'm (B minor) Truth
Verse 7
man,
I'm a Christian so I gotta grind on my knees
Basically, pick up a basin and
start washin' (C major) some feet
Even (B minor) if you feel the beat like
some cops in the street
Please don't tell me I'm the best,
I'm tryin' not to compete (C major)
(B minor) I don't
Verse 8
do this for the money
I don't do this for fame
I don't do this for fame
I don't do this for fame
I (C major) don't (B minor) do this for the money
I don't do this for fame
I don't do this so the industry
can know my name
Verse 9
Please believe me when (B minor) I say
that I wanna be humbleI try
If I can be honest with y'all,
last week I buckled and cried
When I was talking with some youth
leaders I crumbled inside
And I told them that my number one
problem was that I struggle with pride
(C major) With (B minor) the lights and the
Verse 10
(B minor) cameras,
gotta keep it all in perspective
Ten years from now I won't be rappin,
probably be somewhere (C major) lecturing
Can (B minor) 't be hyped by the press
clipswon't be right to give preference
To the people that came into my life and
are seemingly more impressive
Verse 11
Lesson (B minor) number one,
I can't be a slave to the hype
Number two, man God forbid that I try
to get my name in them lights
Number three,
I got the right to wear them Bapes if I like
But watching Jesus He was famous
but He was waiving His rights
(C major) He (B minor) was King, could've came
Verse 12
on a white
horse that would not have been sinful
If He came in on a donkey,
I ain't gotta ride (C major) in no limo
None of this would (B minor) be happening
if I was shopping the demo
So I'm content if the car is clean
and I can roll down a window
Verse 13
Gotta stay close to my (B minor) kinfolkI wanna
stay low to the ground
It's simple, you hear that tempo,
yeah I'm slow (C major) in' it down
Hence (B minor) forth, my life's in print so,
from the front to the back
Jesus Christ is the main
featureI'm just an opening act
(C major) I (B minor) don't do this for
Verse 14
the money
I don't do this for fame
I don't do this so the industry
can know (C major) my name
I don't (B minor) do this for the money
I don't do this for fame
I don't do this so the industry
can know my name
Verse 15
All flesh is as grass (B minor)
And the glory of man is at the
flowers (C major) of the field
The (B minor) grass withers and the flowers fade
But the word of the Lord endures
forever (C major) (B minor)
I'm here and I'm gone
That's why I take the time that I have
To (C major) proclaim (B minor) the One who was glorious
The Lord Jesus Christ, who is indeed God (C major)
(B minor) I don't
Verse 16
do this for fame
I don't do this for fame

I don't do this for the (C major) (B minor) money
I don't do this for fame
I don't do this so the industry
can know my name (C major)
