Shadowboxing Jehovah

Artistic expression can be used as a weapon
Heed the knowledge 'cause school's in session
We learn some lessons when we crash & burn
If you take the wrong route, just hit a U-turn

You'll discern things differently and gain maturity
When you don't succumb to outcomes tragically
Hear it directly from me, I've almost lost my mind
In the darkest moments is when the light will shine

That's not some clever line used to impress you
I speak my truth about things I've been through
At venues, I continue looking over my shoulder
Shadowboxing Jehovah has made me a Soldier
