Testify-Music - #thePower [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Intro]
Chyeah (Chris Mecca)
Where there’s light, there will always be darkness
It comes in many different shapes and sizes
The enemy has so many tricks and disguises
They should be the master
So don’t let your guard down, or you just might, (just might)
Lose yourself to the power
Forget about your family, forget about your friends
Forget about the prize
Focus on what lies in the darkness
Yeah I want that power
Y-Yeah I want that power [x2]

[Verse 1 - Testify-Music]
Man I’m on a power trip
I wanna be the greatest, so I’m gonna rule the world
And unplug it from the strip, they call the Lord’s grip
As it said in the scrip, all those who walk in the dark
Can change, if there light is within them
But I can’t help but defend Him
I feel like I’m losing my soul to very thing I can’t seem to control
See there was a battle going on inside of me
Satan had my faith trapped in a state of sobriety
Somebody please unplug me

[Hook]
The power! (I want it)
The power! (I need it)
The power! (I want it)
The power!

[Chorus]
We all want the power
To be in control of everything around us
Every minute, every hour, is spent
Trying to obtain
What everybody wants to gain (wants to gain)

But with power comes the chance of a power trip
So don't let it go to ya head
Or ya might slip, into the shadows, the darkness
Yeahhh that power trip (power trip)

[Verse 2: Testify-Music]
Lord please guide my feet, cause I'm about to fall
I'm trapped underneath the wall
The weight of my own greed, got me in need
My soul might be free, but it’s corroded like my heart
Cold and evil like the dark
I let the power go to my head and got addicted to the bread
Now I'm trying to keep myself in check, and let it all go
But Satan’s trying to stop my growth
Teasing me with money and gold
I really wanna be rich and famous
But I know that power can keep me away from loving God to the fullest
I swear I’m bout to overload!
Every time I walk down this same road, I feel like drone or puppet
Dancing to beat of the devil’s heat

[Hook + Chorus]

[Verse 3: Testify-Music]
Now Satan took me to all kinds of dark places
And had my soul strung together, like a pair of shoe laces
He gave me dose of that juice, now I’m tripping on that Duracell
Burning red hot, like them strippers in the motel
I keep hearing the Lord’s warning bells
But I’m so busy trying to raise hell that I completely fell for the devil’s spell
Now I’m stuck between serving God and being a slave to Baal
Only one God is all powerful, and will never fail (never fail)
He’s father of Abraham, and the savior to many
You should get to know Him fam
And give Him 10% instead of just a penny
No Uncle Sam

[Hook + Chorus]

[Ending]
If you had all the power in the world
What would you do with it?
Would you use it for good or evil…
