Who Told You That

[Verse 1 ] Spoken by a teacher, echoed by a friend, The devil himself saying you'll never win. Heard it from the ghost still sleeping in your bed, A shadow in the mirror putting thoughts in your head. One bad choice became the label you wore, One hard season made you shut every door. All roads ahead using the same old map, Till you couldn't tell the truth from the trap. [Chorus] Who told you that your last mistake Would be the one that sealed your fate? Who told you change was out of reach, Without giving grace a chance to speak? Who told you that you were not enough, It's time to finally call their bluff. Borrowed voices led you off the path, So take a look inside and ask... Who told you that? [Verse 2] Divorced three times and giving advice, Love just ain't worth the sacrifice. Pockets empty, living off a check, Teaching success while drowning in debt. The quitter telling me when to give in, Like chasing dreams was a carnal sin. Heard their opinions, chalked them up fact, Then the light came on, it was time to ask... [Chorus] Who told you that your last mistake Would be the one that sealed your fate? Who told you change was out of reach, Without giving grace a chance to speak? Who told you that you were not enough, It's time to finally call their bluff. Borrowed voices led you off the path, So take a look inside and ask... Who told you that? [Verse 3] The Spirit spoke up, time to dig deep, Toss all the lies, it's the truth you seek. The labels fell off when exposed to the light, Left it all behind me, let God finish that fight. The past became lessons, no longer shame, It all became wisdom that was watered by pain. The noise around me finally lost its sound, Time to stand on the truth that I found. [Bridge] Not every voice deserves a seat at your table, Not every critic gets to write out your label. The scars were not meant to tell your story, Just there to remind you of who gets the glory. Shake off the lies and the damage too, Take one more look at what God made in you. [Chorus] Who told you that your last mistake Would be the one that sealed your fate? Who told you change was out of reach, Without giving grace a chance to speak? Who told you that you were not enough, It's time to finally call their bluff. Borrowed voices led you off the path, So take a look inside and ask... Who told you that? [Spoken Word Outro] Maybe the better question is not who told you that... Maybe it is why you believed it. Because the truth is... God never said it.
