The Ambassador, Canton Jones - Favor lyrics

Wasn't a fancy car wasn't a diamond ring
Wasn't friends or lovers
At the end of the day cause this life's hard
And it can bring trouble
In the midst of this trouble
No one can take it away you need
His favor it was his favor

I'm a witness so I'm taking a stand
Life and trouble go together like
Bacon and pans
There's gon' be some up and downs
Like I'm shaking your hand
And everybody gets down
Just like a snake in the sand
But God's faithful to man he got favor
His hand could take a lame
With no cane make him able to stand
Man he can reach inside of us
With a deposit and got us up outta pit's
Reach you at the bottom
Even when bottom is bottomless
I was just there i'm a product
My survival is not cause I'm the fittest
But my God is a Revivalist that's just
What He is that's just
What He does recognize what it isn't
Recognize what it was

Of course it was His favor
How else you get that job?
You ain't have the paper it's favor
That helped you get that ride
With your credit? Forget it
How else you get that crib? Single parent
Apparently jesus helped you with them kids
How'd you go from child of wrath
To a child of God i know the math
I know how to add favor multiplied
Grace came out His hands and feet
Grace came out His side so amazing
So I praise Him i realize
I was born in sin but born again
Like I was born on uS soil
Not from KC but through grace see
A dude that's royal such an unlikely pick
I'm like Susan Boyle
And there's enough grace unlike uS oil

Favor is grace to live
Grace to die grace to give
At the pinnacle is when God came
And placed a bridge between Himself
And we who are on the outside we were lepers
We were desperate like all them housewives
It supplies strength and it supplied need
It's free constantly flowing
Like an IV enough for everybody
Even in India arie
Up on the daily daily He's with me
Like ID i was once on top
Thought I was hot to death then I dropped
And I brought this all on myself
Then His grace came down
Gave me life for death after the swap
Now I'm back on top of the shelf

Now you prepared my table
You did all the labor
I don't even worry cause
I know that You are able
You even blessed my neighbor
He didn't even have TV but now he has cable
