    This track is definately "that deal"! You gotta here the story line as it forms into to the urban-picasso type verbal illustration of what really happens and how the Light shines to guide us out of even the most obscure shades of darkness. You gotta hear this.

    Story Behind the Song
    His wings is actually a true situation where one of my closest of cousins is the one who's heavy off into "That Lifestyle" and others and myself are trying to direct Him towards the Lord. I wrote the song in Pieces. (The first verse was taken from a song that was completely about his situation written in 2000). The last two verses were written in the summer of 2002. I wanted to direct this song toward all feel trapped in a seemingly no-win, no-way-out situation and convince them that they do have a choice and that there is hope in CHRIST. Let JESUS take you underneath His Wings!

    Lyrics
    He’s been on his own since he was eleven
    His Pop’s addicted to crack
    Momma’s a hoochie so he left and didn’t ever come back
    He has no family they just can’t handle him
    He’s a liar
    They tried to show him love he blew that with his selfish desires
    So he’s outcasted
    Can’t nobody feel his pain (think he’s crazy)
    Grew up too fast
    The streets done raised him fed him filth on the daily
    He knows what’s righteous but he wasn’t raised right
    To cover his wicked ways up he keeps his clothes and his game tight
    He’s living strictly to survive
    He’ll sell his soul for a million
    He’ll do whatever dirt it takes
    He thrives on ignorant women
    He don’t trust his lady she’s so shady he wants to choke her she’s creeping
    She’s pregnant with his homey’s baby and says it’s his just to keep him
    Plus he don’t want it no way kill it
    He thinks he’s too young for two kids
    Don’t want the one he’s got his life is hard enough as it is
    He sleeps on a pillow of pain saturated in tears
    He’s been hurting for years
    But Jesus wants to change who he is

    CHORUS
    You might think living wrong is right
    It's not
    You know it's too much stress to fight
    Alone
    But even if you're lost and caught up in your own ways
    CHRIST can make things in your life
    Right
    UNDERNEATH HIS WINGS

    VERSE
    People keep telling him “Let the Lord put an end to this
    He’s the author and what He finishes no one can edit it
    He replaces your deficits with some spiritual edicate
    He’ll fight all your battles from Wes Covino to Connecticut
    Man you better get the Holy Ghost
    Quit acting like you scared of this
    Completeness
    There’s nothing about the game that can compare to this
    He’ll give you more than what you’ve been getting out of this world of horrors
    And fill you like ten thousand lakes of Minnesota with them Living Waters
    Trust the Father
    You don’t have to struggle to survive or with security
    Cause He’s the Lord of peace
    He’ll put you where you ought to be
    What about your kids (they’re watching)
    What do think they’re going to be
    Scandelous and honory
    Or just like daddy pimping and pushing dope on the streets too
    Man if only we knew that the things we go through would change if we trust God
    He’s the only way out of your situation
    Trust God
    Only He can help you reach your destination

    CHORUS
    You might think living wrong is right
    It's not
    You know it's too much stress to fight
    Alone
    But even if you're lost and caught up in your own ways
    CHRIST can make things in your life
    Right
    UNDERNEATH HIS WINGS

    VERSE
    He’s seventeen and he don’t care if it’s a Hell or a Heaven
    Twenty-four seven he serve’s feigns and he’s their king when he’s selling
    He got that medicine for money many question his methods
    A felony case on his record so he’s highly respected on these streets
    He earns his stripes in jail surviving
    He’s notorious
    The worst his story gets they envy him he’s glorious
    His street position’s got him doing dirty work
    He don’t want to
    But street recognition’s more attention than he got from Momma
    That fake homey love is abusive to some it be they only love
    His father never showed him love (can’t die a lonely thug)
    Can’t let his peers detect his fears
    Cause all he’s got is his pride
    He tried to show his inner feelings trapped for years and almost died
    He thought he died
    It felt so dumb and weak and fully exposed
    Like when you’re naked after that he chose to keep his heart froze
    He hides his pain and all his struggles under wreckless abandon
    He gets respect from people still he feels neglected and stranded

    CHORUS
    You might think living wrong is right
    It's not
    You know it's too much stress to fight
    Alone
    But even if you're lost and caught up in your own ways
    CHRIST can make things in your life
    Right
    UNDERNEATH HIS WINGS

    VERSE
    He avoids confrontation with Christians
    Cause it seems like they know all his business and hidden feelings
    They say come get deliverance
    He say naw cancel my visit
    I’ll die a criminal wizard
    Making big-figure digits
    Plus church is for mental midgets
    The witness replied
    You don’t understand your pains intentional
    What manifests in the natural started in the spiritual
    Demons and Angels fight to guide your spirit so
    You’re in a war of multi-dimensions like Mutants verses the Sentinals
    This is critical
    Let Jesus order your steps alphabetical
    Let it go now the pressure is unbearable
    You’re about to go histerical
    Think they’re out to get you everywhere you go
    Failing to understand how man can have this world in his hands
    And still feel stranded and irrelevent and terrible
    Submit and get connected to the Lord like an umbilical
    I can go acopella
    So you can hear what I’m telling you
    Jesus Christ is the Truth the only way to be a better you
    He’s feeling you and what you’re going through
    He wants to show you a better view
    Of life if you would step into his Light
    He’ll overshadow you
    Repent and He’ll forget the unforgivable
    When you be baptized in Jesus’ Name like it’s a swimming pool
    What that’ll do is prepare you for His Spirit
    To get out all the Hell in you
    So Jesus Christ can dwell in you
    Cause he’s compelling you to call
