Lyrics

Intro

Yeah

Lights on the corner still blinking

But the foundation never shifted

Let us get it

Verse 1

Grew up on the aisle with the chips and the dreams

Watching older heads move like the world was a scheme

Candy for a dollar

Lessons for free

Learned who was solid and who just pretend to be

Used to think the register was the only real power

Until I met the One who flipped tables in an hour

Every time I pass that same sign

I remember the Rock that held me when I almost declined

Counting no more change for temporary highs

I am weighing the cost and the blood that bought the prize

Chorus

Corner store sitting right next to that cornerstone yeah

Corner store sitting right next to that corner

Used to run in for the snacks and the noise

Now I am building my whole life on the Rock that ain't going

Corner store sitting right next to that cornerstone yeah

Same block

Different foundation

God said stand firm so we standing

Until the Kingdom come we ain't moving

Drop

We ain't moving

No we ain't moving

Verse 2

Came from the suburbs where the lawns stayed clean

Thought faith was a Sunday thing quiet and serene

Life hit hard

Questions got loud

Found out the Cornerstone do not care about the crowd

Same Jesus that met me in the quiet of my room

Reached out to my brothers when the night felt like doom

Different walks

Same blood on the door

Different stories but one Spirit that opens every floor

Chorus

Corner store sitting right next to that cornerstone yeah

Corner store sitting right next to that corner

Used to run in for the snacks and the noise

Now I am building my whole life on the Rock that ain't going

Corner store sitting right next to that cornerstone yeah

Same block

Different foundation

God said stand firm so we standing

Until the Kingdom come we ain't moving

Verse 3

Did my time behind the walls where the lights never sleep

Letters from home and the Word I would keep

Thought the corner was the only place that knew my name

Until grace walked in and rewrote the whole frame

When I see that storefront I do not flinch or run

I see a reminder of where the race was begun

From the concrete to the cornerstone

No middle ground

We building something eternal on this same old town

Verse 4

Four voices

One foundation

No solo flex

Hood or suburb or prison or campus

Same blood

Same next

We do not flex the past

We flex the finish

Cornerstone holding every single brick we finish

If the store stays open we still preaching free

If the lights still blink we still on our knees

Different chapters

Same Author

Same page

Whole posse shouting one Name on the same stage

Bridge

It is not about the location

It is about the foundation

Street lights fade

Steeple light stays

We came from every side

But we walk the same way

Chorus

Corner store sitting right next to that cornerstone yeah

Corner store sitting right next to that corner

Used to run in for the snacks and the noise

Now I am building my whole life on the Rock that ain't going

Corner store sitting right next to that cornerstone yeah

Same block

Different foundation

God said stand firm so we standing

Until the Kingdom come we ain't moving

Drop

Kingdom come

Yeah we standing

Stand firm

Cornerstone forever
