The Healthy
[Verse 1: Eshon Burgundy]
Yo I know some people with a fear of dying
Other people with a fear of flying
In the street they probably run down on you
Put the four pound on you
Now you're crying cause you fear the iron
Know kids in fear of losing their mother
Heard two lovers jealous in fear of losing each other
Saw a struggling brother in fear of losing his gig
Said if he did, he probably just go put two in his head
He said his fear is that his kids wouldn't have nowhere to live
Had to stop him like, What are they going to do if you’re dead?
Huh? Now embrace the gravity at what you said
The moment of stress got you talkin Like you lost ya head
That fear Hey man, that's a killer
Out of its proper context
It's pure and utter nonsense
As a response to anything but the Father is bondage
But there's a freedom that exists
And I know where to find it
A prophecy that's timeless
If I'm completely honest
Not even Aristotle could deny this type of knowledge
There's a hollow part of man
That can only be filled by the Elohim
Then it's goodnight mare And hello dreams
I speak a prayer for the newly redeemed Who testify that the power only lies in the Supreme
Fear is a puppeteer that rears Geppetto’s strings
Out here where the shells fly Kids die when the metal screams
[Hook: Je'kob]
Your tears, leave blood stains on the pavement
Your, healthy fear
Break the walls of enslavement
Oh, ain't that much better?
Ain't that much better?
Ain't that much better?
Healthy fear lies in Heaven
[Verse 2: Eshon Burgundy]
Yo The fear of God is the beginning of knowledge
And it's peace for the streets
And the scholars, college alumni
Suburban and urban combined
Even the one-time
The ones on patrol, corrupt with current violations
Even lawyers and accountants currently in litigation
And heads the state of rape and try to suffocate the nation
There is no stipulation on the payment that was made
That would ever extricate the defendant from being saved
If he prayed and received
Repented and confessed
And believe the lambs blood
Paid the penalty for death
Then he is free
Free'er than the convict off a plea
Now he can properly digest
The fear of the King of kings
He knows it's healthy that we
Agree (with) and esteem
The creator and the ruler
Who gives mercy to the foolish
And is thirsty for worship
He purchased us to do it
He don't need it but He want it
And want us to wanna do it
Want us to fear Him He want us to fear Him
We obey out of our fear
That's how He know we truly hear Him Want us to hear Him
When He promise to protect us
Surrounded by His grace like a necklace
Promise to reward us
Promise to restore us
Cause my sin keep coming back around like the chorus
Promise to reward us
Promise to restore us
My sin keep coming back around like the chorus
Back like the chorus
[Hook: Je'kob]
Your tears, leave blood stains on the pavement
Your, healthy fear
Break the walls of enslavement
Oh, ain't that much better?
Ain't that much better?
Ain't that much better?
Healthy fear lies in Heaven
