Who Will I Be

Verse 0

Hard to speak on the faith with the shame in the air

Got my doubts stacking high but my hope’s still there

Why my own people throwing stones, breaking the trust?

Supposed to lift each other, why they trample the just?

See the gospel twisted up as a mask for the spite

Ask myself if I belong or just blend with the night

Preachers talk bold till their own words fall flat

Is my witness truth, or just lost in the chat?

Intro

Man, sometimes the loudest voices, they got the smallest hearts

Makes you wonder who will listen, who gon' set us apart

Faith ain't built off scandal, hate, or prideful dishonor

Still got questions for God as I'm searching for answers

Verse 1

I see crusades in the comments, tongues sharper than blades

Misquoted scriptures tossed up, fueling the rage

Hypocrisy's a shield, but the armor got stains

They point the finger at you, then walk out unchanged

Every Sunday packed pews, but the love lookin' empty

Quick to judge a neighbor, grace only a memory

How I claim the same banner when it’s dragged through the mud?

Who gon’ hear hope in my words when it’s drowned in their blood?

Chorus

Who will I be, when they turn away?

How do I preach peace when they only see hate?

If love is the message, I’ll find a new way

Carry the good news, let my actions say

Verse 2

Saw a brother on the corner, Bible held in despair

“Man, my faith is a target, all they do is just stare”

Every headline, scandal, makes it harder to care

But I look for the hurting, I meet 'em right there

Don’t let walls of the church become comfort or pride

If my hands ain’t helping, then my words got no ride

Faith ain't meant for the safe or the proud who divide

I’ll be the gospel alive, ’til my life match my side

Chorus

Who will I be, when they turn away?

How do I preach peace when they only see hate?

If love is the message, I’ll find a new way

Carry the good news, let my actions say

Bridge

Still I wrestle with shame, shadows left on my name

Trying to love like Christ while dodging the blame

Every failure in the headlines puts a price on my claim

But giving up on compassion is losing the game

I can’t fix the story, but I can walk in the light

Choosing mercy through the darkness, holding truth in my sight

When the world sees a circus, let them witness my fight

If love is mocked by the many, I’ll stand for what’s right

Chorus

Who will I be, when they turn away?

How do I preach peace when they only see hate?

If love is the message, I’ll find a new way

Carry the good news, let my actions say

Chorus

Who will I be, when they turn away?

How do I preach peace when they only see hate?

If love is the message, I’ll find a new way

Carry the good news, let my actions say
