If that blessing wasn't sent to me
Lock the door and throw away the key
I only want what's meant for me
I know that's God's protection on me
I'm alright
Celebrating my neighbor
Working on God's time
Thanking Him for favor
Did everything my way in the past
Nothing seemed to last
I was going nowhere fast (yeah)
I chose to be still
Cus I don't mind waiting
If it ain't in His will
If that blessing wasn't sent to me
Lock the door and throw away the key
I only want what's meant for me
I know that's God's protection on me
Throw temptation at me
Imma be just fine
Devil been waitin' on me
Tryna take my peace of mind (yeah)
I'm on a mission
I made a decision to stay on the right path
A special assignment
It ain't no turning back
I chose to be still
Cus I don't mind waiting
If it ain't in His will
If that blessing wasn't sent to me
(If that blessing wasn't sent to me)
Lock the door and throw away the key
I only want what's meant for me
I know that's God's protection on me
Gods protection
On me
And without His love
Where would I be?
I need God's protection
On me
If that blessing wasn't sent to me
Lock the door and throw away the key
I only want what's meant for me
I know that's God's protection on me
If that blessing wasn't sent to me
Lock the door and throw away the key
I only want what's meant for me
I know that's God's protection on me
