[00:33.20]The deliverance and diligence
[00:34.63]For which we strive

[00:36.77]

[00:41.77]We enterprise
[00:43.27]Had a strong gaze since infant eyes
[00:45.47]I guess I can see the power in the prize
[00:47.77]Incentivized by the streets I identified

[01:31.70]
[01:32.00]Through reverend wright
[01:33.13]Fortunate in my house ain't a desperate wife
