Verse 1:
There's a young girl, up in her teenage years
Up in tha world, thrivin with teenage peers
Popular but there's one thing to be made clear
Low self esteem was tha reason for her teenage tears
She thought she was pretty enough or cool as tha next chick
She thought she wasn't skinny enough so dudes she would mess wit
So they'd be chillin wit her and she'd feel accepted
But in the end it would suck cause she'd still get rejected
And nah she couldn't really see seekin the Lord but
Thought she could find peace in an eatin disorder
Every time she'd lose 10 and said just 10 more but
Her friends all confused like you what you do this for huh?
And she started to cling to this foolish disorder
She figured it's all she had if tha students ignored her
Dag, I'm praying for my sister
That she would cling to God that can save and deliver
Hook:

True security is found in Christ
He'll never leave you, He's down and around for life
(Repeat)
Verse 2:
There's a young dude, up in his teenage years
Huggin tha block to fit in wit his teenage peers
He still doesn't it's one thing to be made clear
Not bein down with tha rest is his teenage fear
See where he come from, sellin work ain't that crazy
And it's few cats his age that ain't had babies
All he wanna do is lay around and hang out crazy
Maybe smoke something, drank got his vision hazy
Plus he just got that new Jeezy cd
Wanna be like them D boys he see on TV
Heard of church but ain't got a suit that's three piece
So he think it that just ain't for him
But some girls down tha block wanna date from him
Bout a decade down tha road his baby will be 10
But he'll be locked up I'm prayin for my brother
That he would cling to the God that can save when we suffer
Hook:

True security is found in Christ

(Repeat)
Verse 3:
Another young one, up in they teenage years
Put on a pedestal above all they teenage peers
Father's a pastor and one thing that he made clear
We serve Christ, but daddy couldn't see they tears
See they felt insufficient, like they could not match
Up to Dad, no matter how much good they stacked
Like they was failin every single test they facin
Felt like Satan next to the expectations
Suicidal thoughts, ran through they brain
Had dreams of killin, but self is who they'd slain
Didn't realize that Christ is perfect in our weakness
So they tried to hide it like they life was sweetness
Frontin in front of fam even quotin scripture
But just couldn't understand He who wrote the scripture
Dag I'm prayin for my family
That we would realize He died so guys would have a plan B
Hook
I'm prayin for my sister
That she would cling to the God who can save and deliver
True security is found in Christ
He'll never leave you, He's down and around for life
I'm prayin for my brothers

True security is found in Christ
He'll never leave you, He's down and around for life

True security is found in Christ
He'll never leave you, He's down and around for life
