This track gives that ready feeling. The beat is bangin and gives a vibe of searching one's soul. pianos, bass...it goes hard!
This is basically that point in a man/woman's life, where they realy began to exam there self. Then began to take into account what direction their life is heading. Something, which I did. Coming to the understnding that I need the Lord to guide me in this life.

Dear Lord, Father, God in Heaven. I come to you, I’m broken. I need direction, I can’t do it my own. I need your guidance. Grab my hand.
Lyrics-
1st Verse:
This is just the realness/ World wide coast to coast/ you can feel this/ They ask why, and I tell em it’s the truth/ It’s not a secret, I’ll give em the scoop/ I’m just a worker/ a worker in progress/ Bein obedient, doin what God ask’s/ I used to focus on the hustle/ and the guap see/ Used to focus on lil’ mamma wit da knock-knees/ But know my focus is on Christ/ How to be humble and upright/ No second Guessin/ this is the life/ Stop debatin if you heard me right/ Soul searchin, I don’t wanna’ be worthless/ My livin’ in vein/ in a world of pain/ soul searchin/
Chorus:
All the trouble I’ve caused/ and the trouble I see/ Drama I’ve caused/ continence eatin me/ Soul searchin/ I had to get right/ I had to get right and get rid of the strife/ Soul searchin/
2nd Verse:
Forces of evil/ I hear they whispers/ All around me/ I hear they whispers/ The vision I have/ is God givin/ Things that I say/ I really been a witness/ And seen His grace, time and time again/ Unstable is the ways of a double minded man/ And that kind of dude/ just can’t be trusted/ Got you disgusted/ you still should love him/ A man got what you ain’t got/ don’t covet/ My refuge/ My comfort/ My strength comes from above/ You wonder why you here it from the g’s and the thug’s/ Every knee shall bow/ every tongue shall confess/ Give me peace, when I’m feelin distressed/ When I’m feelin like I’m bout to go back/ bout to slip/ Yeah, ya’ll know what this is/ Soul searchin/
Chorus (Repeat Chorus)-
3rd verse:
This thang is critical/ and it’s beatin on my heart and my mind/ I wanna sit down and talk with you Divine/ I wanna learn how to live what you define/ The seed was planted/ still I was blind/ Could you rekindle this here light of mine/ I’m not questioning you/ I’m askin/ In every shape/ every form/ every fashion/ I’m pleading callin on the Redeemer/ Shelter me, from all the demons/ Wash me, of evil spirits/ Just give me direction/ I’ll hear it/ And apply what you say to my walk/ I promise not to run like before/ This time I’m ready/ you broke down my will/ And I’m ready/ I’m more than ready/
