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
