lirik lagu malachi - of jealousy and replacement

[verse 1:]
today was a good day
i laughed
i smiled
i gave

today was a good day
i cared
i worried
i listened

today was a good day
i remembered
i wished
i learnt

today was a good day
i am alive

as i continue to chase after the end of the rainbow i cannot ignore the immense size of the mountain in front of me
i can’t afford to go around it and i currently lack the faith to move p-ssed it so i cannot help but feel stuck
helpless, useless and pathetic as the very things i claim to hold dear to me slowly begin to lose faith in the hero i once was
broken, battered and bruised with my soul still plagued by wounds that should have healed a long time ago, i ask myself will this climb be worth it?

then the angel on my right -ssures me that the answers i seek lie at the peak of this mountain
the only condition is that i must sacrifice the thing with which i beat the odds. there’s no other way, that’s what it means to serve a jealous god
he shall not be replaced by a gift that he gave you malachi you already know that so don’t try to fight it

i look up
and view the crescent moon as heaven smiling down at another jacob brave enough to climb the ladder of change
you told me my voice would command nations even when you know there was a time i was too shy to say my own name
i asked you how
and you gave me a mic and now that i am ready to perform you say i should give it back
no!
look at what i’ve done with this gift
i paid for their attention and directed it to you
you took away one of my teachers but still i stuck with you
you can’t do this to me god, i swear, i won’t let you

who am i without my words?
will they even consider me worthy of their presence or will i be deemed a peasant if i walk away
i’ve been training to be king, you anointed me for the throne
chosen like david only to die like moses?
i don’t want to see the promised land if i’ll never enter it
i’m not climbing this mountain, i refuse to do it

such is the stubbornness of a prideful soul
dying of thirst on a rainy day coz you feel you’re too cursed to freely receive
the blessings of the wise, the joy of the kind
the concern of the selfless and the love of the pure
these lights have blinded you, and now you crave their praise
boy climb that mountain or feel my wrath!
you see, i will not argue about what’s best for you. i gave you free will but you messed that up too
and now your guardian angel pleads for you on the daily but her tears are running out, if you k!ll her faith boy i will make you suffer

fine, fine
i’m going
what shall i do when i get to the top?

you take all that i have given you and lay it on the ground and trust that i’ll give it back to you tenfold
you see you, you replaced me, this is what you get
and when you’re back on the ground tell my people this, tell them the lord your god shall not be compared to temporary pleasures glorified by man coz truth be told none of them are enough
for the holes in their hearts are getting deeper as we speak
you see, you cannot drown your sorrows if they know how to swim
the smoke in your lungs won’t choke the demons within and the touch of another won’t satisfy your carnal hunger
in other words
i am god
and thou shalt not replace me
