“Soul Ties” by Young C Ft. Aldre (Uninvtd)

Young C just dropped his “Soul Ties” video.

A telling story of how the flesh can lead you astray- the delivery is smooth like butter, but the message is for real.

Watch it now.

Lyrics:

You know, my father will kill me

If he know I was out with the boy tonight

I told them I was going to church

The Lord is good

Why don′t you come on over here and sit down, relax a little bit (okay)

(Yeah)

verse

Yeah, the enemy makes a living watching souls die

She can see the difference from her own eyes, yeah

‘Cause she′s not used to not having somebody

Around don’t know how to spend her alone time, uh

So she’s looking for the next thing, yeah

But the flesh is never satisfied, yeah

That′s when Satan starts to strategize

Brings in all these guys, now you caught up in these soul′s ties, uh

You deserve to be a wife

But you rather settle for one that won’t treat you right

You′d rather him pursue you more than he’s pursuing Christ

Ignoring all the signs, you risking eternal life

That′s life I say it twice, you dimming your light

For a comment and like

A caption where he writes that you are his type

You pray he keeps it posted on his page overnight

‘Cause when you livin′ in that sin, that’s your appetite

Yeah, now you hittin’ up yo′ girls for advice

But they speaking from they flesh

They ain′t telling you what’s right

Telling you grab his debit card and just swipe

But that′s another fight you don’t

Wanna pay the price for but you enticed

Feel like you entitled, see the world black and white

But you won′t acknowledge, when you let him hit, that’s where you striked

Forget about your faith and you been walking by your sight

Now on sight you say you got something for him though

But this happened with the last man before him though

So either you know what′s gon’ happen or don’t wanna know

You suppose to be a Proverbs 31 woman, though that′s what you said

That man misleading if he ain′t spirit lead

How it’s him that you feeding, he suppose to be the head

Showed you all the signs you still don′t see the red

No matter how good he looks, that could be good as dead, yeah

If he ain’t leading you to Christ

But in the back of your mind you think it′s gon’ be alright

You think you can change him, but girl that ain′t yo’ fight

You gon’ mess around and lose yo′ life

Being tied to a soul, you gotta let it go

But every time you say you ′bout to do it

You get back into your feelings, you don’t wanna be alone

′Cause you just want somebody to love you even if it’s wrong

Sis, you gotta be stronger than this

′Cause this yo’ life, but you making yours harder for his and it ain′t right

You say we judge you we just tryna love you, give good advice

Your daughters watching you drink away your tears every night

And that ain’t fair to them

So when I say a prayer for you, I say a prayer for them

‘Cause they just want to be cared for like you care for him

Because of choices you made, look what you prepared for them

You can′t be there for them, like you should be

Yo′ sins got you thinking God won’t forgive

What if I told you, you could be

′Cause you thinking that God don’t understand but

God is saying you the one that misunderstood me, uh

Good girl gone bad, sin deep

That explains why her spirit is empty

And if God sent Satan to hell because of sin

Where you think that he gon′ send me?

I’m tryna get this to you

Before it′s too late to get this to you

If you got ’em, break these soul ties

If not then watch your soul die

Yeah

Break these soul ties

‘Cause if you don′t then your soul dies

Soul ties got a way of breaking you

You gotta protect

You gotta protect yourself

When you gon′ protect yourself

Why do you keep letting it happen to you and only you?

Why you always confused?

We’re telling you the truth, but you act like you never heard it

You know God, right?

He done warned you already, yeah

Why you lacking staying ready?

You know the pain getting heavier, heavier, heavier

It′s been breaking you

Who you choosing been shaping you?

Out here acting like the God you know ain’t guiding you

Who you know, who you know, know

Who gon′ ride when the wheels fall off?

Who gon’ talk when the convos get tough?

Why you going back when they left, ′cause it got tough?

Why you going back ’cause it’s tough, that′s tough?

You gave your whole self, that ain′t enough

God gon’ give it, just be patient and still

Just be patient and still, still

You can′t let them control your emotions

Soul ties

A way of bringing death around

Soul ties

Gotta way of bringing death around
