Declaration (This Is It!) Lyrics


Check it out, ya'll
(There've been times in my life)
I'm tired and I wanna give up
(I've been wondering why)
Why is the world gettin' so crazy?
(Still, somehow I believe)
I've come too far to die now
(I'll always survive)
If you're a survivor, get up!
Let's get it!
Gonna cry now, go ahead and get it out of my system
I know I hurt now, but soon I gotta get back to livin'
Can't be here next year, givin' you these same tears
I hope you enjoyed it, 'cause it's the last time you will take a piece of me
I start right now, I don't know how I'm gonna get through it
I know right now, I pray somehow 'cause I can't do it
I can't keep livin' like this, there's gotta be more than this
Jesus, I'm ready, I'm ready for what you have for me

(Are you gonna wait for a sign?)
Are you ready for your miracle?
God's people it's time to stand up and fight
Let's get it, let's get it
(This is it!)
You can't mess with my mind anymore
(This is it!)
I'm smarter, see I've been here before
(This is it!)
It's a new day, I'm not afraid anymore
(This is it!)
Yes, I believe, if you believe, help me say
(This is it!)
I'm a child of the King baby
Look at somebody and tell 'em
(This is it!)
And the band plays, let's go
I look back now, I look at how you tried to break me
To take my life, my peace of mind and drive me crazy
My self esteem, my dreams, my destiny
So, God allowed it, because He knew He had big plans for me
Hallelujah!
It's your grace, I know today it's how I made it
Thank You, Jesus
When I thought that it was over
Lord, have mercy
(Are you gonna wait for a sign?)
Are you ready for your miracle?
God's people it's time to stand up and fight
Let's get it, let's get it
(This is it!)
This is it, you can't mess with my mind anymore
(This is it!)
Hallelujah, I'm smarter, see I've been here before
(This is it!)
It's a new day, I'm not afraid anymore
(This is it!)
Yes, I believe, if you believe, help me say
(This is it!)
Everybody that's been holdin' you down
Look at 'em and tell 'em
(This is it!)
I feel my help coming on right now, ya'll
Let it breathe
(You think that maybe it's over)
You're life ain't over
(Not unless you want it to be)
(Are you gonna wait for a sign?)
Your miracle
(Stand up and fight)
Turn the mic up real quick
This is it ya'll, this is it ya'all
You've been waitin' and debating, here it is, ya'll
All your stuff from your past, shake it off ya'll
Though they said you wouldn't last, but who is ya'll?
Want your dreams back? Let's get it!
Your peace of mind back? Let's get it!
Want your family back? Let's get it!
Are you ready? Let's get it!
(This is it!)
I speak against everything that comes
To destroy the purpose in your life
(This is it!)
Worrying about your finances, your future
When you can't even sleep at night
(This is it!)
I speak against depression and fear, every attack from the enemy
(This is it!)
This is your day, the Lord made it baby! God has set you free!
(This is it!)
You can't mess with my mind anymore
(This is it!)
I'm smarter, see I've been here before
(This is it!)
It's a new day, I'm not afraid anymore
(This is it!)
I wanna hear ya'll sing this with your boy!
Everybody say
(This is it!)
You can't mess with my mind anymore
(This is it!)
I'm smarter, see I've been here before
(This is it!)
It's a new day, I'm not afraid anymore
(This is it!)
Yes, I believe, if you believe, help me say
(This is it!)

A native of Fort Worth, Texas, he was raised by his aunt, Gertrude Franklin. He developed a talent for music early, playing the piano at age four and becoming music director of his church at age eleven. After getting kicked out of school in his teenaged years, having a girlfriend become pregnant, and after a friend was shot to death he returned to the church. After leading the DFW Mass Choir at the 1990 Gospel Music Workshop of America Convention, he organized "The Family", a seventeen-voice choir, in 1992 and began his recording career.

Franklin has collaborated with the biggest names in gospel music, including Tonex, Donnie McClurkin, Richard Smallwood, Crystal Lewis, Pastor Shirley Caesar, Jaci Valesquez, and Willie Neal Johnson. He also has displayed a willingness to collaborate with artists in the secular realm, including Bono, Mary J. Blige, Crystal Lewis, and R Kelly in the hit single, "Lean on Me."
