You’ll start hearing this HOT TRACK in rotation now on Project 88.7!
“Mess It Up” has the vibe of a classic campfire song added with a little bit of techno. It’s a good reminder to stay strong, even when you feel weak, and to stay true to the Word of God, while dealing with your problems.
The lyrics remind me that when I’m not good enough and when I can’t seem to trust in God, the enemy is just getting too close. All I have to do is just gain faith in the One who created me. I never have to face my problems alone or worry about messing up God’s plan. He knows about my problems and he already has the solution. All he wants is for me to get there.
“But the Word is my loaded gun, gun, gun.”
The Word is the one thing that has all the essentials to keep me going and firing on all cylinders.
“Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see.” –Hebrews 11:1
Lyrics:
[Intro]
One, two, one-two-three-four
[Verse 1]
Okay, it’s 5:30 AM
Alarm tellin’ me to get up, make friends
My mom tellin’ me to not trust Satan
He’ll give you the world but you still feel vacant
Say I’m strong but I lied, ’cause I still feel weak
Play pretend with my eyes ’cause I cannot speak
Who am I to disguise how my feelings deep, deep, deep?
[Pre-Chorus]
What if I lose it all
Tryna figure out where I’m supposed to be?
What if I choose to fall?
Will it mess Your path and Your plans for me, ’cause
[Chorus]
What’s this little life without problems?
I keep it goin’ and forget that I got ’em
It’s just me alone, I don’t know who else to solve ‘еm
It feels like these changе like the leaves in the autumn
I’m afraid I’ll mess it up
Waste it all and lose Your trust
How I fall away so many times but You still call me “son?”
Put my faith up in the One
Know the enemy will come
But this Word my loaded-
But this Word my loaded gun, gun, gun
[Verse 2]
‘Cause I don’t wanna mess it up
My chains stay on, not gettin’ up
The weight just makes me throw my love away, away, away
The winds and waves may come but I know the one who holds the sea
Sometimes it’s so hard to trust, remind myself to believe
Spirit, come on down, I need Your love, heart on my sleeve
Tell myself I’m fine, so I just put this song on repeat
[Pre-Chorus]
What if I lose it all
Tryna figure out where I’m supposed to be?
What if I choose to fall?
Will it mess Your path and Your plans for me, ’cause
[Chorus]
What’s this little life without problems?
I keep it goin’ and forget that I got ’em
It’s just me alone, I don’t know who else to solve ’em
It feels like these change like the leaves in the autumn
I’m afraid I’ll mess it up
Waste it all and lose Your trust
How I fall away so many times but You still call me “son?”
Put my faith up in the One
Know the enemy will come
But this Word my loaded-
But this Word my loaded gun, gun, gun
