The title track featuring K.A.S, summarises this album in its message and overwhelming passion. We find Lil Prophet (who is based in Florida) stepping out of the world, turning his back on its ways and committing his life forward and upward - "I need God. . . We got Christ, we are everything" This is a message of defiance, of passion, of victory, giving everything to God - who alone can turn any life around. The album is filled with bangers and animated driving tracks. On "Most High God" Prophet cries out "I rep the Most High God." Lil Prophet also shows his versatility with "That's Me" (featuring the vocal talents of Philip Ray) - a downtempo shout-out to his girl, while the soulful "Trapped In Love" rolls in a similar vein. A real standout and challenging track is the rolling beat-filled, "Taste Like Candy" where Lil Prophet likens the flesh and its sinful desires to wanting some candy. This is the kind of track with crossover commercial appeal. The second half of the album sees that raw energy return with some crunk party bangers featuring Pettidee, Bonafide and others. A truly spirited project.
