PROVERBS – Two Ways Before You by Bro H

Verse 1 Before the sun climbs the city wall Before the markets wake Sit down, my son, and hear the call For your own soul’s sake The streets are loud with silver tongues With promises that shine But honey hides a sharpened blade And shadows dress like wine Pre-Chorus There is a way that glitters bright And there is a way that stands in light Chorus Two ways before you — choose your ground One builds a house, one tears it down One walks steady, slow and sure One sells truth for something pure The fear of Yahweh is the start Guard your steps — and guard your heart Verse 2 The fool will speak his every thought The wise man weighs his breath One sows pride and harvests rot One escapes the net of death Unjust scales and crooked hands Can fatten for a day But every lie sown in the land Will find its reckoning way Pre-Chorus The wicked flee though none pursue The righteous stand — because they’re true Chorus Two ways before you — choose your ground One builds a house, one tears it down One mocks correction, stiff of neck One bows low and guards respect The fear of Yahweh is the start Guard your tongue — and guard your heart Bridge Better little with upright hands Than treasure soaked in shame Better wounds from faithful friends Than flattery dressed in flame Do not envy violent men Do not praise the bold in sin For the house they build in secret Will not stand when storms begin Final Chorus Two ways before you — clear and wide One ends in death, one life beside Wisdom cries in open air But only few will stop and hear The fear of Yahweh is the start Guard your house — and guard your heart Outro (Soft, reflective) Before the sun climbs the city wall Before the city wakes Choose your way — choose your call For your children’s sake
