By Force

You wicked old serpent, 
messed with the wrong person.
I am not scared of a ghost.
The violent take the kingdom by force.

I wear the complete armour.
Don't think I'm just sitting in the corner.
Yes sometimes, I put down my shield.
Though not a good move in the battlefield.
But, even if I lose faith,
my vitals are protected by the helmet and breastplate.
The complete armour, I hold fast to His truths.
I'm just honing my battle skills, I will definitely bear fruits.
The violent take the kingdom by force.
Unlike you, I don't need a deceiving Trojan horse.

I'm a soldier; I ain't afraid of death.
I will not succumb until my dying breath.
Oh, you can't threaten me with life anymore.
At the end of that play, I'll have the high score.
The violent take the kingdom by force.
I am counting; you owe me. Now, reimburse.

Even dogs eat the fallen crumbs.
An heir of salvation, I'm not from the slums.
Even a dog she was willing to become.
What more for a daughter who houses the One?
She didn't take 'no', took the kingdom by force.
She humbled herself, depended on Him, the source.

This next one's my favourite, the woman with the issue of blood.
Considered unclean and dirty, she didn't just dream laying in the mud.
In faith she approached,
and just touched His cloak.
She didn't even politely ask.
Herself, she completed the task.
She stole the power.
An impressed Jesus was overjoyed at that hour.
The violent take the kingdom by force.
I'm not backing down; I'm so close.

I'm not afraid of losing worldly things.
I'll match you for all you've got in the ring.
I'm no longer on the defence.
Watch out; I'm on the offence.
I am an heir of salvation.
I'm no longer just worried about damnation.
I claim them, all seven.
Not just redemption and going to heaven.
The violent take the kingdom by force.
The thorn in my flesh is training me to win battles far worse.

The body now belongs to me. 
I exercise authority over my property. 
Victory comes to the strongest shareholder.
You will definitely suffer violence as a soldier.
But, the violent take the kingdom by force.
Like Jesus did, your evil fruits I curse...
the whole tree right up to it's invisible roots.
Strongholds, bondages, ancestry, hurts and wounds.

I am not just knocking for bread.
I am standing on the Words He said.
Ain't no one go stealing from my plate.
You unclean, unholy one, I tell you this, up straight.
I refuse to accept you stealing from me.
Stop calling it debt. For me it's free.
It's been paid in full.
On the cross, says my manual.
The violent take the kingdom by force.
This point, all my life - I will echo and reinforce.

He did say, "whatsoever".
So, in every endeavour,
I believe I have received.
I will not continue to be deceived.
The violent take the kingdom by force.
Not negotiating with the devil, an unholy intercourse.
With the force of faith,
I control the gates.
