Steve: What goes on in the darkness?
In the spot-light you're an artist
In day light, at the job workin' your hardest
When lights on, spread seed for the harvest
But when the lights off spill seed on the carpet
Righteousness like a light switch
Flip it on and off when you wish, livin' life as a hypocrite
A great actor a fake wit' a mask
You're ashamed of the fact you're a slave to your master
It was subtle how your lust crept in
Started in your head, spreadin' through your bread like leaven
Age eleven exposure
Sparked somethin' dark in your heart burned 'til you got older
Then you were born again, it was smolderin'
Zealous young buck, throwin' out stuff, you were bolder then
The church criticized, said "you're too holy" then
You began to compromise, heads started noticin'
Things changed but, heart didn't change much
Fan to the flame, lust ran through your brain much
You messed up on occasion
Makin' sure, it's at least a week before, you were on stage again
You leave time for repentance
Sometimes you might even mean it 'cause your sins ain't consistent
But, you can't lie it's the Most High you rebel against
Sinnin' wisely, hidin' all your evidence//
You can't hide in the darkness
God sees all actions and intents of the heart it's
Gonna come to the light
So repent, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might
You can't hide in the darkness
God sees all actions and intents of the heart it's
Gonna come to the light
So repent, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might
Steve: I know another cat like you, you might know him too
Matter of fact yo, his story's in the bible
Ever read about Samson
Nazarite since birth, crushed anything he laid hands on
He had an issue with sin too
It crept in slowly, most didn't notice what he went through
They get the story all twisted
Compromise started way before Delilah, most of y'all missed it
It begins in the vineyard
Rule number one for the Nazarite: no wine or vinegar
Even the grapes are off limits
Eatin' anything from the vine was a breach in the commitment
He never should've got close but
Now he's put to the test when a young lion approaches
The Spirit of the Lord fell on him like an adrenaline rush
Literally rippin' the lion up
Later on he returned to the scene
Rule number three, all dead bodies are unclean
Can't touch 'em, I don't care how much you loved them
If it's carcass you must regard it disgusting
But it's not so with Samson
He found bees and honey in the dead lion and stuck his hands in
Then he shared with his parents
Sin seems sweet when it's secret so please be aware men
You can't hide in the darkness
God sees all actions and intents of the heart it's
Gonna come to the light
So repent, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might
You can't hide in the darkness
God sees all actions and intents of the heart it's
Gonna come to the light
So repent, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might
Steve: You got a lot in common with Samson
Hope it ends there though, his story has a bad end
Though God did much with him, he was still lust driven
Had a thing for revenge plus women
After about a thousand and thirty dead Philistines
He finds the woman of his dreams
But she was schemin'
Bribed by her Philistine people, offerin' a whole lot of cream and
Before I get to the point it should've hit you
When I was going through the rules earlier I skipped [#] two
Here it is though, never bring a razor to your head bro
Nazarites gotta let their hair grow
She enticed him, he told her
She sent for the lords of the Philistines so they came over
While he slept she shaved him
No longer Nazarite, Lord's gone, no one to save him
They put his eyes out blindin' him
Fetters of brass binding him, and now he's grindin' in prison
The pagans want to play wit' 'em
So they sent him to the house of Dagon, but Samson is prayin'
The Lord avenges him, pushes out the pillars in the buildin'
Three thousand dead men and women
But he went with them, like I said it's a bad endin'
So how you gonna finish yours, Christian
You can't hide in the darkness
God sees all actions and intents of the heart it's
Gonna come to the light
So repent, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might
You can't hide in the darkness
God sees all actions and intents of the heart it's
Gonna come to the light
So repent, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might
