Ghetto, ghetto,
I've been praying for you
Hallelujah.
It is easy as 1, 2, 3,
I wanna be what's on TV,
And if that's wrong, please don't blame me,
Cause where I live we have nothing
In the ghetto, ghetto, ghetto.
In the ghetto, ghetto, ghetto.
Little kids growing up without no education,
Mom's on drugs, cause that's her only medication.
Nobody's home, but they ain't on a vacation,
But they left the kids alone watching the TV station.
What's wrong with the picture, please, someone give me the answers
They be wondering why the girls grow up to be dancers
Then we wonder why the boys grow up to be dealers
And they be angry at the whole world ready to kill us.
After we start to resolve the whole problems
How we let our little children destroying the goblin
Why we got them all killing and stealing and robbing
We need to plan a little seed to prevent the mobbing
Why don't we teach them that science to reach for the stars?
Cause they can beat the fire with the future worst than odds
Don't want them looking in the past and covering scars
They need a path out the ghetto, hello.
It is easy as 1, 2, 3,
I wanna be what's on TV,
And if that's wrong, please don't blame me,
Cause where I live we have nothing
In the ghetto, ghetto, ghetto
In the ghetto, ghetto, ghetto
Little boy had a dream of being a ball player
Cause little homie wanna grow to be a rhyme slayer,
Little missy wanna grow to be a model
While the momma at home just drinking out the bottle.
How come little one to grow and be a councilman?
Sitting in a governer, a mayor politicianman.
Probably cause the politicians keep tricking ‘em
Promise that they fixing it but they ain't really fixing it.
That's why they want to be like me
Like giga like B and Nicky and Ree
Every day in the ghetto is an emergency
But the power that be don't emerge in see.
That's why you see killing, that's why you see crimes,
That's why you see homies in the prison doing time
That's why you see crack, that's why you see blackstrap
But no access out the ghetto, ghetto.
It is easy as 1, 2, 3,
I wanna be what's on TV,
And if that's wrong, please don't blame me,
Cause where I live we have nothing
In the ghetto, ghetto, ghetto.
In the ghetto, ghetto, ghetto.
Ghetto, ghetto,
I've been praying for you
Get up and dance to the music
Get on up and dance to the fonky music
Dance to the music, dance to the music
Hey Greg, what?
All we need is a drummer
For people who only need a beat
I'm gonna add a little guitar
And make it easy to move your feet
I'm gonna add some bottom
So that the dancers just won't hide
You might like to hear my organ
Playing 'Ride Sally Ride'
You might like to hear the horns blowin'
Cynthia on the throne, yeah
Cynthia and Jerry got a message they're sayin'
All the squares, go home

You can go to work, or you can be the boss
Imma be the owner, be a...
Imma go hard, like I'm on a f*c*in boner
Imma make the beat put the people in a coma
You can be a geek or be a rolling stoner
I woke up in the morning,
Hard like morning wood in the morning
Woke up thinking about my component
E.t own the mic...

You can go hard or you can go home
Well I, I know there is a life to pay
I don't wanna beat you down
You can go hard or you can go home
You can go hard...
Wait a minute, Imma make it a little harder
Imma make it a little harder
Give it to you a little harder
THIS IS HARD...

(Hook)
Great times are coming,
Coming down the boulevard,
Coming down your avenue,
I can see it from a bird's eye view.
Great times are coming,
Coming to your ghetto, too,
Coming down the avenue,
I can see it form a bird's eye view.
Here come the good times,
Let the good times just roll in,
We ain't got no time to be slowing
Bring ‘em on, bring the good times
Let the good times just roll in,
We ain't got no time to be slowing,
Bring ‘em on, bring the good times.
(Verse)
I'm fired up and ready to go,
Lit the fuse, I'm about to blow,
On the top, come from below,
Plant the seed, imma watch it grow.
Got big dreams like Dr King,
Big things to the extremes.
I'm a tech feme, check scheme,
Knowledge up on the steam steam
Bread the stack, president's black,
Came for the hood, now I'm headed back.
Get my people off the track,
Get my people out the track.
(Pre-Hook)
We're saying ay-o,
If you buy that bush get out my way-o
I'm about to do it, do it big, that's the way it go,
Cause baby, I just wanna live my life.
(Hook)
Great times are coming,
Coming down the boulevard,

(Outro)
I hope you're ready,
Great times are coming.

Hold it now, hold it now, hold it now hold it wut wut
Hold it now, hold it now, hold it now hold it wut wut
This is how we roll, when we mash out

You are my fire
The one desire

Tell me why
Ain't nothing but a heartache

Good morning, welcome to the thing called light.
Good morning, don't you let it pass you by.
We laugh, we cry and then we dry our eyes,
We fall, we rise, ready for another try.
When life gets tough, remember we were never born to die,
When times get tough remember we were born to be alive.
Good morning, wake up and live the life,
And don't forget to dream the dreams, the dreams.
And don't forget to live the dreams and dream

De repente creo que me volví loco
los niños me saludan y yo les sonrío
se me aflojó un tornillo y veo el futuro
qué lástima que nadie cree en mi.
Y al darme cuenta de que estoy muy loco
los pajaritos vuelan sobre mi cabeza
estoy piantao del coco me dice la gente
qué importa si así yo soy feliz
Se murió mi última neurona
menos mal yo no quiero pensar
para qué me voy a hacer problema
si total la vida sigue igual.

In the liquor store

For the real neat team, never forgettin its knots

Try me x3
Try try me
Try me x2
Try me like I'm playing
Try me x2
Try try try try me
Try me x2
Try me like I'm gone
Try me like I'm playing
Try me like I ain't walking out this stuff that I be saying
Try me like I'm out here flexing flexing for you man
Try me like I ain't really who I'm saying that I ain't him
Try me like I'm playing
Try me x6
Try me like I'm playing
Try me x6
Try me like I'm playing
We so deep it's so out and been around for so long
So when you try to shut us down but they end up getting rolled on
They crucify our leader first and thought that they got rid of us
In three days He cracked the grave and now the centuries of us
We're simple man, we still sin, but there a couple things that we won't do
One is deny the son, holding back is number two
We made it through the crusades, we made it through the reformation
Great sin, great men, but we endured through generations
Through generations, through generation Africa, Europe, Asia
Every tongue, every tribe, all races, all nations
No, this is not a game and never ever can it be
The move is not some little clique but it's Christianity
For now He rules eternally the 6th day was detoured
In Adam (her life's lost) in Christ (her life's restored)
The fourth kingdom will come as it is and heaven praying
That the Lord will come quick, try us we are not
Try me like I'm playing
Try me like I ain't walking out this stuff that I be saying
Try me like I'm out here flexing flexing for you man
Try me like I ain't really who I'm saying that I ain't him
Try me like I'm playing
Try me x6
Try me like I'm playing
Try me x6
Try me like I'm playing
Before I write a verse trying to sound cool or swagged out
I been fast in all that let this man shout
I ain't retired in a while, let me cash out
Now Imma gonna testify, bring my past out
I was living with no concern for my soul
First in my block that rock and rolls go
Rapping and trapping painful and lost
The beats that he'd toss somehow was slow
I was in it to win it i was fixing to get it
Just give me a minute and I'm on
But then I repented and this kid was delivered
Now longer a child now I'm grown
So liar liar pants on fire (I put em out)
Please desire His desire (live it out)
Grown folks playing with the sword
The 9-5 stretch was given for us to live it out?
Uh acting all big and bad like they ain't gotta give a count
I beg to differ on the last day you get slain like Jack the Ripper
Down to the lake of fire mister can't breathe up under that water flipper
I run the way the God commands enlarge my heart to understand
Gotta be B E perfect gotta be B E holy gotta let the Spirit control me
Gotta be a little less fony if it is all that than the Spirit's up on me
Try me like I'm playing
Try me like I ain't walking out this stuff that I be saying
Try me like I'm out here flexing flexing for you man
Try me like I ain't really who I'm saying that I ain't him
Try me like I'm playing
Try me x6
Try me like I'm playing
Try me x6
Try me like I'm playing
Young Noah I don't understand Flame why they calling us hypocrites
Flame: Why because they seen abuse and lifestyles that contradict
Young Noah: But we ain't out here flexing man we unashamed and we walking this
We trying to be the alternate, Jesus Christ is ultimate
Flame: But often it's the opposite it's obvious they never met Him
Cause if they did I'm positive they'd positively represent Him
Cause if they truly saved then the Holy Spirit is living in em
We all whack the only difference is all the Christians is saved sinners
Young Noah: So basically what you saying is what I need to praying is
That God would make me like Him to be a light and invite them
Flame: Absolutely Excellent That's what I'm saying
Welcome to a place where the guns don't pop
But a place where the fun don't stop
Homie
To a place where Jesus be
And we don't even need a Jesus piece
Homie
Welcome
To a place where we follow the Bible and we don't even need jars of dro
Homie and ain't nobody tryna grind for shine
Cause Jesus is the star of the show
And that's real
You ask us where the guns at homie where the weed at
We like kill that homeboy we don't need that
Instead of the heat we'll be where G-O-D's at
So we reachin' out with open arms like where your sleeves at
I notice something cats'll die for they reputation
They rather die disin' God and to get with Satan
But on this side we collide in anticipation
Of Jesus' second coming written in Revelation
We don't grip steel sell crack none of that
We live life in light of the fact He's coming back
So while they squeeze clips blood crip gang banging
East coast west coast down south slanging
Midwest nina poppin'seein' Jesus hangin'
On the cross resurrected' and you still thinkin'
That you cool without His grace is crazy
Its a slap to the face of the God who made me and you
Welcome to a place where the guns don't pop
But a place where the fun don't stop
Homie
To a place where Jesus be
And we don't even need a Jesus piece
Homie
Welcome
To a place where we follow the Bible and we don't even need jars of dro
Homie and ain't nobody tryna grind for shine
Cause Jesus is the star of the show
And that's real
We kissed the world goodbye
And its love for women its love for sinning
Simply because His love is in us
We kissed the world goodbye
And its music too that music's confused dudes like a rubrics cube
Homienow we pluggin' into Christian rap
So many lyrics about Christ a make a Christian snap
And wanna spread love to a thug with a nine milli
And I ain't playin' this time dirty and I'm silly
And every movie and commercial that makes fun of us
Like South Park with wicked hearts that come up
And comic view and Islamic dudes that do it too
One day the Bible say they'll pay homage too
The very King that they mocked and laughed at
The Bible says at they very plots He laughs back
So we gone love our enemies and we gone have fun
As we patiently wait on the return of the Son
[Chorus: Chris Lee]
We were made to know You, meant to behold You
And praise Your holy name
In your image You made us, represent our creator
On the Sixth Day
We were made to know You, meant to behold You
And praise Your holy name
It's the reason we were made
What a good day
[Verse 1: Flame]
What you livin' for, do you know who you are
Do you know you fell, can you tell by how far
Who told you your purpose, why do you exist
Why do you prefer doin' that over this
If you are a man, do you know your role
And if so, who taught it to you, told you to go
And to you baby girl, the question is the same
Do you know your role, are you in your lane
Man, I remember as a kid, watchin' everything they did
Tryin to learn who I is
How to dress, how to walk, how to walk a lot of shame
Made me wanna sell dope, made me wanna join a gang
Would've never understood that we, who are this way
The crown of creation invited to display
And represent the image of His face
Through certain attributes, the night of the Sixth Day
[Chorus: Chris Lee]
We were made to know You, meant to behold You
And praise Your holy name
In your image You made us, represent our creator
On the Sixth Day
We were made to know You, meant to behold You
And praise Your holy name
It's the reason we were made
What a good day
[Verse 2: Flame]
Did you know God, in His Independence
Is self-sufficient, He chose to make us in His image
And I ain't talking height, weight, facial features
I'm talking characteristics in common with His creatures
He didn't need us, He wasn't lonely
Trinitarian fellowship with His one and onlys
Do you know homie, what it really means
To be the divine image, family we human beings
See Genesis 1, verse 26 through 28 establishes who we is
Or who we are, or what we are
And where we were, and how far
Away we've gotten from a day in the Garden
The climax of creation but ended up falling
Greater than birds and beasts but we ended up crawlin'
And now our viceroys are in need of a pardon
[Chorus: Chris Lee]
We were made to know You, meant to behold You
And praise Your holy name
In your image You made us, represent our creator
On the Sixth Day
We were made to know You, meant to behold You
And praise Your holy name
It's the reason we were made
Well I was chillin' in the crib afterward reading my word
So I cut the T.V. on and I started to surf
At first I past a channel with a preacher man
So I said let me go back just to see what he sayin'
Reach to the left grabbed my Bible from the desk top
He started off well I'm like yeah that's hot
Hude was killin' it
I started feelin' it
Even though I didn't know what scripture he was dealin' with
So I said let me stay and see
Then he said turn to Isaiah 53
I'm like aww yeah man that text is raw
The very next thing he said made me drop my jaw
I was appalled
They offered him applause
And 20, 000 people screamin' praise the Lord
Dawg I'm like naw
I'm laughin' it off but it was serious he was speakin' on behalf of God
It's time
Press stop and rewind
Go back roll back right now
With creeds and church history
Lets stop and see if we missed a beat
He was reading verse 5 by His stripes we are healed
Then he said cause of that we should never get ill
And if you do get sick its from a lack of faith
This false teaching is really exasperating
Then he said either that or some secret sin
So if your sickness comes back you need to seek Him again
Confess your hidden sin
And beseech Him again
And if you doubt your sickness will come creepin' again
So all that text was sayin' is that we shouldn't get sick man
Is that in the bible
That same preacher man said we suppose to be rich man
Is that in the bible
He said with my faith I can confess and posses it
Is that in the bible
Then he said God's people shouldn't suffer
Is that in the bible
It's time
Press stop and rewind
Go back roll back right now
With creeds and church history
Lets stop and see if we missed a beat
So I cut the T.V. off tear drop fallen to the floor/
I was sad seeing these people fallen for it
I broke down then I started callin' to the Lord/
We can't afford to ignore this anymore
Furthermore if he would have just read verse 4
He would have understood the context a little more
For that matter
Should have read the whole chapter
To see the whole point that Isaiah was after
The whole chapter was about Jesus Christ
And specific details about Jesus' life
And healing in verse 5 was from our sin sickness
You know when the Holy Ghost quickens
I know what your feelin'
I know you offended
But when you repented the Spirit brought spiritual healing
But at the glorification
In the book of Revelation
He's in a class by himself, a league of His own
He'll give life to the dead, He'll breathe on your bones
He's more than a homeboy, He's king on a thrown
Now either love Him, or leave Him alone
But you can't do both, it's either or
The velvet or the iron door
The lamb or the lion that roars
The provider of the rider on the horse
He's Yahweh, King, much more than a product in the store
Plus, He's faithful and true
Waitin' to come through, consume fools like a plate full of food
Eternal life, that's a fate for the few
No breaking the rule, come on a roll like skateboarder dudes
Check the flavor my neighbor
You can raise your hand while I set the faiser to taiser
This is shock for you soul
A little rock and roll
Something to step to when you hit the block and stroll
So let's lock and load
Word of God is the ammo
Armor of God, camo fatigues
Strategic Rambo maneuvers
Hand over land is the move, man
Stand soldier, firm in your faith
Time to do what He told ya
Hold up the 66 books
Stuck in the radio
Always trying to hit me with hooks, nope
Feeling my crew? Hallelu
This is how it sounds when Pilly goes down, mixed with the Lou
Ooh, try and listen
I, yes the Christian
Wide screen addition
In high definition
Coming soon
Like manana, sun and moon
That the ___________ for my peoples, like sunny tunes
So it's one, two for my mic check
As I approach a world that Christ-less
Giving you good meat to digest
And I swear solidly the rock properly
Dropping non-stopily
Since the rock spotted me
Knocked me down, switched my flow game
Changed my identity from sinner to no-name
Introduced me to light
Gave my soul flame
Now its nothing but Gospel whenever I flow man
From Philly to the mid-west right thurr
My mic serves the Gospel to strike the right nerve
So when you finished with this cypha music
If the Cross ain't done yet, then neither is the movement
His mercy, mercy's
On me like the jersey
Royalty purple and gold like James Worthy
A trade's been made, I ain't worth a food stamp
Can't stand on my own like I've got two cramps
Ain't sinning, but I can, pray for me
You're my brother right?
Then you're able to pray for me
We all foolish, thinking we ain't Judas
Help me Lord, Paul thought his sins were rudest
Stacey dashes, taking dashes clueless
Makes me mad is us Christians act the cruelest
I got some knocks on my head from some Bibles
Gave some too, thank Christ for survival
Hearts deceitful
Making knowledge idols
Trunks in my eye and I can't see my rivals
Cause they unseen, please remember
We don't uproot, God yells timber
This is the lost swift movement
From the mid to the east
To bring across truth to flame to the ears of the streets
My Bible's my Tonic, I guess I'm a Phantik for Christ
Or Ambassador, slashin hearts with the Word of Tru-Life
Actually, He's giving me what I need to survive
Cause Adam had to have branded us to the breed that would die
Thank Jesus, at least you can say that our hearts still ain't hardened
He said This House I Shall Live, so right there my sins have been pardoned
It's mercy, because we're sinners saved by grace
If not, smell it like pee-ew, as J-Silas would say
The violence today is running rapid from the nature of sin
So we paint a picture of the Cross and pray the world will give in
We set tracks ablaze
For the Rock of Ages
To free captive minds from locks and cages
This is hot off the press, fam
Flip the pages
Sin has a penalty, who paying the wages?
Its as clear as it gets, can't get no clearer
Couldn't get it closer to ya if you looked in a mirror
Unless your vision dirty fam, like grit on the mirror
Gritty, grimy, filthy, like spit on the mirror
Jesus' blood cleansed us though like Windex on the mirror
'till His image what we see when we look in the mirror
'till His love is what you see when you looking at us
Black is blood is what it seem when God is looking at us
Oh, it's outrageous, the Word of God is so amazing
Its time, let's walk this way and let's get to cypha God-blazin
Sin and death, I'm sick of it
We need His omnipotence
Stand against wickedness
With lifted fists and arms raised
It is my turn to spark this cypha
Its time to start this fire
The real Jesus walks with me
Even through the wire
He's the true Messiah
He don't care about a tire
You filthy rags, He makes clean
___________ He admires
I don't need the blings
I rock the products of the Father
I hold onto this attire manufactured by Abba
Don't need the Gucci
The phat ride, or the Prada
Cause my hand gesture welcomes God in like the Ramada
He preach the Cross even when the legions mock
And we seek what's pleasing God cause He's the boss
Watching what we say like closed caption, believe it doc'
The world's watching us like peeping tom's
When we spit like teething tots
Thousands of heathens drop
And become dumb-founded like when speech is lost
Gospel emcees are rare like an equinox
Non-Christ-centered verses are grieving God
I don't need the props
I was the sheep that's lost
Then I met the good Shepard
His voice leads the flock
In this day and time Satan is taking lives like Ethan Hawk
So cling to God with tunes open, receive the plot
We scream enough truth that you've got to listen
I'm Flame, can't take the heat, get out the kitchen
Christian cats are spittin' Christ with the mic on
We ride through the dark with our high-beam lights on
The whole camp might be social martyrs
We preach with our life and are vocal artists
Jesus, welcome to Christ saints
Can I take your order?
I'll have the bread of Heaven and the living water
We'll stick together, God's sons and daughters
Let us worship together, the God who called us
And we ain't those cats after a platinum million
Lately man its been some problems the scriptures have been under attack and that's crazy
See God's word is the final authority I'm sorry there's no way you can sway can't persuade me
The holy scriptures is the only sufficient certain and infallible rule for the Christian
Nothing can be added at all so you can keep your revelation and religious traditions
The-op-nyoo-stos (theopneustus) its God breathed
2 Timothy 3: 16
Because the scriptures are the only example of God breathed revelation in possession of the church
They form the only infallible rule of faith for and which we base the church
Let's talk about inspiration
God's the author no mistaken man
Let me hear ya say yeah (yeah)
(S-O-L-A SCRIPTURA)
(S-O-L-A SCRIPTURA)
It's the Bible man B-i-b-l-e
People pick pick and choose
What they will and won't use from the holy scriptures
But the Bible is not just a book that you can just look through and see what fits ya
Naw dawg it's tota scriptura
All of scripture
Was told by John Calvin
So if you LDS Jehovah's Witness or if you Roman Catholic
Please don't insert your own authority in place of the scriptures that's backwards
The scriptures are perfect and they are able to guide the people of God into the truth God
1689 Baptist Confession is my point of reference in which I use for ya'll
How I'm talkin' about sola scriptura but I'm using the confession I'm confusin' ya'll nope!
Let me hear ya say yeah (yeah)
(S-O-L-A SCRIPTURA)
(S-O-L-A SCRIPTURA)
The great deception... ception... ception... ception... ception... ception... ception... ception... ception...
See the king and the queen, they were under bosses
Ruling everything, their dominion was exhausted
(Down to every creeping thing) except for God himself
And each other, but they represented God himself
In his image of perfection, joy, bliss, it was paradise
But I can hear the ploy, the hiss (no more being nice)
Of the serpent who slithers in the grass
And calls into question, the giver of the task (are you sure)
I know they brew over me (I'm the beast of the field)
But how can I persuade them (gotta get us out their minds)
Make'em think that they are animals (make'em think I am the king)
Then I can degrade them (then I got'em, I got'em)
This is my plot, but I'll have to use their appetites to twist them in a knot
(Tell'em they can be like God) Then maybe I can win
If I could use Adam's appetite to make him sin
[Chorus:]
I never saw me stumbling, I never thought I'd fall
The day that You created me, I know You gave Your all
You put so much of You in me
I almost lost it all
The great deception... ception... ception... ception
Look at the queen of the universe, walking in the garden
The image bearing empress, conversing with the fallen
(Serpent who was crawling) the evil spirit of Eden
Who tried to redefine the definition of freedom
Ju-ju-ju-ju-ju-ju- just eat the fruit from the tree
You are a goddess, you are deity
You are much more than God has revealed
Go ahead Eve exercise your reveal
Distinguish for yourself, good and evil
But who am I, I'm just a beast of the field
No the fruit is not lethal, just eat see how it makes you feel
And how it makes you think, and how it makes you act
Fact! Your God has been holding back
Scratch that, He is flat out lie
If you eat from the tree you will not surely die
[Chorus:]
I never saw me stumbling, I never thought I'd fall
The day that You created me, I knew You gave Your all
You put so much of You in me
I almost lost it all
The great deception (ception, ception, ception)
From the dawn of history, the mystery of lawlessness
Hijack the cosmic order, interrupted flawlessness
Introduce fallenness and now the servant-king
Who used to rule the land forfeited everything
And now the image bearers, Adam and Eve
Gave up their authority and were forced to leave
The sanctuary of Eden, The world was the kingdom
But Adam brought the curse
Because of his disobedience
Now demonic powers, rule the universe
Satan is the leader, and death is the curse
The Father sent Jesus, to come press reverse
But he had to hit the wilderness first
To overcome temptation, overcome sin
These are the things that are common to man
And that's exactly what he did, after the resurrection
The safest place to be is in Him for protection
For perfection, for correction
To escape the great deception
Overcome temptation
Overcome sin
Overcome temptation
Overcome sin (over-overcome sin)
After the resurrection
The safest place to be is in Him for protection (for protection)
For perfection (for perfection)
For correction (for correction)
(Intro)
I guess we all hurt sometimes
So I find myself takin' it one day at a time ya' know
Cause' ain't nothin' easy about this life here
I must seek my Source, one day at a time y'all
(Verse One)
Nothing in this world will ever be peaches and cream
That's just in everyday living not mentioning spiritual things
I get sick and tired of hard times, It's hard to renew my mind
Hard to put the past behind when ya' feelin' blind
I grew up seeing the same ol' murdas
Same ol' thugs in the same ol' swervas
Sometimes I was afraid to walk through the 'hood
I know we say it but ain't all good I'm keeping it real
My daddy came home he was robbed
Mom on disability and daddy lost his job
So where that leave me at? I go to school wit dirty shoes and wack ball caps
I'm in the hall catchin' all laughs
I'm tryin' to stay focused 'cause this locust is real
Went to kick it but my homie got killed
I'm under all pressure
The Lord blessed a young ghetto child like Flame
I'm still living through the sufferin' and pain
(Chorus - 3X)
Lord I know that you already love me
And you want me to walk by my faith
But it's hard for me to see you when there's no good around
So I need you to open my heart so I can love you more
(While I'm livin' I'm a give you my all)
(Verse Two)
It kinda makes me laugh cause it's been a long time comin'
Messed up so many times but yet I'm still growin'
See it hurt when my grandmother died
I'm in the hospital room over her bed lookin' her in the eyes
She always said go to church and serve the Lord
And put Him first over everything especially money and cars
She had a major impact on who I am now
Bowin' down worshipin' and sending praises up loud
But yet she's gone and the same bad things are going on
It's hard for lil' Flame to stay strong but yet I hold on
Life is so short we only passing through
Able to catch you a laugh or two
I seen a lady last week gettin' beat down
And thirteen year old girls gettin' freaked down
Now you can tell we in the last days
The world has turned away from God now we livin' in our own ways
Since I have been saved the death angel has passed over
My down was covered by the blood straight from Jehovah
See I'm grateful, for the way of escape from bein' hateful
The dollar doesn't make you, power doesn't make you
I have seen it all nothin' new under the sun
He made a way out so I had to run
I'm tired of poverty, ghetto areas and trife livin'
I'm tryin' to elevate to Christ livin', his righteous life we livin'
Come on
(Chorus - 2X)
Lord I know that you already love me
And you want me to walk by my faith
But it's hard for me to see you when there's no good around
So I need you to open my heart so I can love you more
(While I'm livin' I'm a give you my all)
(Verse Three)
Who else can fill the void straight from all the love that I lost
Except the One who shed all his blood at the cross
I didn't ask to be born into this world at all
But through God's grace I was created to praise God
But it gets really hard, I was born right into sin
I was headed for hell before my life even began
But since I'm here now through Christ I'll make the best of it
I trust God so I'll let him do the rest
How else could I have peace in this life of crime
How else could I have peace when the battle's in my mind
How else could I have peace with a broken heart
I wish it was the end like Noah's ark
It'll be all over, No more pain no more sufferin'
No more games no more thuggin' no more hustlin'
I praise God for eternal life the Mediator
Who gave the ultimate sacrifice, and we call him Jesus Christ!
(Chorus)
(While I'm livin' I'm a give you my all) (7X)
I want to love you Jesus, I want to love you love you
I want to know you yeah yeah yeah
Ooh Jesus, I want to know you know you
So will you open my heart so I can love you, More (2X)
Said I wanna be more like you yes
Said I wanna know how you talked and how you walked
Step by step I'll get there
You see the lights cameras looking like we bought to go hammer
One thing that's for sure I am not the one to rock the show
They show up they show out [repeats]
Hey beat check bass check microphone check 2
But none of that matters let the spirit come check you
So I play the background I know when to back down
Out here going hammer like Jesus is coming back now
I don't want the glory either why you think I go hard
Tell you like I tell my barber bro I don't want no part
Homie what's in your heart pride off in your pocket
You want all the credit boy what's in your wallet?
Sorry I can't control myself I lost it I ain't bout to lose it
Oops please pardon me for all this Jesus juice that I been spewing
Ruining my good shirt stomping got my foot hurt
Crucified for all my sins ya they call that woodwork
I spit loud as I walking round if you jump but that don't work
Like Elijah call them fire from the sky fireworks
Fire words at these people pray evil would be restrained
Lord we need you so we calling on your name like the Flame
You see the lights cameras looking like we bought to go hammer
One thing that's for sure I am not the one to rock the show
They show up they show out [repeats]
Paradise was lost Adam why you wreck it?
Messing round with trees and find out that he was naked
Then sin entered in boy I got a message Jesus
That they all infected and protection's been rejected
So I'm standing on stages off and on on these jets
Flight attendant is tripping just like she bout to flex
But I am not tripping on the way to as show
Gotta tell em bout Jesus cause they need to know
Oh no it really ain't about me bro
I shouldn't ever say that though what you think He saved me for
So that I can get on stage and the crowd get amazed and they pay me dough? Never So this smiles on my face when I step in the place and I say hello? Never
I'm gonna preach this grace I'm a teach this grace then I say let's go
I don't have a heaven and I don't have a hell
I can't put you in either but He surely will
Jesus stepped on the scene showed up on the cross
Showed out when he rose he did both for the lost
You see the lights cameras looking like we bought to go hammer
One thing that's for sure I am not the one to rock the show
They show up they show out [repeats]
I am not the one to rock the show (multiple times)
I can't ignore it man
I can't ignore it man
I don't wanna put away
I don't wanna put away
But I don't want to ruin my life
I'm trying to live my own theology but I'm still confronted by my own hypocrisy
I've lost count of all the ways I contradict the things I say in things I pray
And when I recite from my own Bible against my own Christ
Man I love Him to the core but it's still a struggle trying to love Him even more
Yes I wanna finish well never bring shame
And never sprinkle dirt on the son of God's name
I wanna stand firm I wanna end strong
But I be so afraid that I'm gonna end wrong
And provide for my self again and supply for my selfish sin
In spite of the knowledge You are a perfect friend
Lord hold me up I know You hear me praying saying
I don't wanna put away
I don't wanna put away
But I don't want to ruin my life
How is it that if something being loved with the taste scrape crumbs off the plate
Let none go to waste keep eating in it eating in it take a drink eating in it
Bout a week later put none to your face exact same ingredients numb to the taste
Is my tongue in the way am I dark am I fake
Or am I just exhausted appetite lost it is my heart cold or is it just frosted
How long is my crave is is my hunger my thirst is
Having a relapse for idol God worship
I know this is dangerous wrong and deceit but it's looking so sweet like bon-a-petit
I know God is my Father and I am His son
He provides for me I should not jump the gun
Said I know this is dangerous wrong and deceit but it's looking so sweet like bon-a-petit
Voila
Then I have to tell myself He was tempted to provide for Himself too
Dry desert no food forty days forty nights think His appetite
Wasn't like Eve's or the Israelites or like yours or like mine
Then the serpent came right time right lies
But He chose to be father not fed make the same choice resist the devil's bread
I don't wanna put away
Don't wanna put away
I don't want to ruin my life
And some people just flat out never accepted Christ.
That's OK, 'cause through God's grace, he put together something like this for you to hear the Gospel tonight.
Through Christian hip-hop, he rigged it together where you can come out, hear some bangin' beats, hear cats spittin' on top of them, but hear the message of the Cross all throughout the songs and after the show.
Anybody in this room that's sayin', "Look, I've never heard the Gospel of Jesus Christ," or "I've heard it and I never really understood that my responsibility was to respond empty-handed 'cause God created me, and to repent is a command" - it's not an option.
It's not one choice among a whole bunch.
It's a command to repent, 'cause God created you.
Jesus Christ made you, he owns you.
The responsibility is for you to surrender, to lift up your hands and say out empty-handed, "I have nothing to offer, my righteousness is that of a filthy rag, I recognize that there's a separation in the relationship 'cause I've offended God, now he has a problem with me, now I recognize that I need to be back in right relationship with the God that made me." If it's anybody in the room that that's the expression of your heart right now ...
you feel God the Holy Spirit tugging at your heart right now like, "Oh, that's me" ...
Uh-Uh-Uh-Uh-Uh Yo Whats Up With You Man O Whats Up Wit You Bruh Yea I Noticed You Readin Ya Bible And Everything Thats Raw Ah Amen Bruh But I Just Wanna Know Have You Ever Heard Of Hermeneutics Hermeneutics? Yea Hemeneutics Naw Whats That Mayne? Well Thats Just Simply Uh The Art And Science Of Biblical Interpretation O Ok Ok And Its Very Beneficial If You Learn How To Do It You Know What Im Sayin'
The first task of the interpreter is called exegesis
(extra Jesus)
Naw I said exegesis man
It's a Latin word don't be scared
Matter of fact I laughed when I first heard it too
Its spelled e-x-e-g-e-s-i-s
Guarantee you learn this process and you'll be blessed
Exegesis is the careful systematic
Study of scripture for the Christian this should be a habit
But to discover the original intended meaning
Of the author to his audience is exegeting
But to do this man you need some tools
So let me recommend a couple of things you should use
Aight cool
First man you need this book
It's called a commentary and it helps you to further look
Into some essential things you need to check
In order for you to properly interpret the text
With this skill this should keep you from heresy
And keep you from going through theological therapy,
The words of God will change your life/
If you keep the text in its context
With this skill
This should keep you from heresy
And keep you from going through theological therapy
The words of God will change your life
If you keep the text in its context
You need some more books I know its gettin' scary
But you need some definitions get a bible dictionary
To go without these tools you can't afford it
That's why you need this book called a concordance
And every time you start to think this is too much to do
I recommend you reflect on 2 Timothy 2
And 15
And you'll see what I mean
Simply because the serpent is lurking to glean
Those who don't read
And those who don't study
To keep a lock on this treasure
From unlocking the pleasure
Cause God's word is lovely
That's why we hold it as precious as pearls
To let our exegetical work reflect to the world
In accuracy
Hoping that you happy to see
The very words God breathe handle accurately
Yeah so many take text out of context
And come up with mess and more nonsense
With this skill this should keep you from heresy
And keep you from going through theological therapy,
The words of God will change your life/
If you keep the text in its context
With this skill
This should keep you from heresy
And keep you from going through theological therapy
The words of God will change your life
If you keep the text in its context
What you don't wanna do is called eisegesis
(I see Jesus)
Naw I said eisegesis man
You a silly dude its Latin too
And that's just the act of when your adding to
Or the process of reading one's own meaning
Into the text and that's just eisegeting
Don't fret I know these words are new
And phrases to
But it's cool to go back to school
Its spell ei-se-gesis
Guarantee you learn this process and God'll be vexed
A text can never mean what it never meant before
To its original reader or author
So if you run into a difficult passage and you know the Bible never contradicts itself
Then turn the pages to a parallel passage and just let the scriptures interpret itself
With this skill this should keep you from heresy
And keep you from going through theological therapy,
The words of God will change your life/
If you keep the text in its context
With this skill
This should keep you from heresy
And keep you from going through theological therapy
The words of God will change your life
It's fallen [x3]
Our world
It's fallen
Look, my generation is clueless
What's all the fuss about
Ignoring Jesus is even ruder than cussing him out
I see no interest at all with true intimacy with Christ
Our apathy is easy to see just like the dots on a dice
We live in a country where worshipping money is all apart of the culture
No worship of God
Just look at they walls
And see who they got on them posters
And see what they got in them holsters
Why cats be holding them choppers?
The Federal Building is filled with killers
That could've been lawyers and doctors
Now if there is a problem even the young boys
Are fenna get those
Bottles of hypnotic
And cop those cigarellos
It's crazy man cause them ladies now are strapped with a ratchet
We born dead and then we all head back to the casket
See it's a wrap for the masses
Cause in Adam something happened
That was traumatic, dramatic, it had to drastic affecting us all
Rejecting our God
Brought death to us all
In choosing to sin
The need to repent
We call it the the fall
See, God is communicating to us through the Holy Bible
And the Bible says that God created the Heavens and the earth
Then it says that He created Adam
The first man
Then from Adam He made Eve
And He gave Adam responsibilities in the garden of Eden
But God told Adam
Not to eat at the tree of the knowledge of good and evil
But the Bible says that the serpent
Was the most cunning creature of them all
And he deceived Eve into eating the fruit of the tree
And then Eve gave to Adam
And that's where sin entered into the world
And because of that
God cursed all of creation and humanity
Now everybody finds themselves in a position
Of a desperate need of a Savior, Jesus Christ
That's my time ya'll
Pursue Jesus Christ
One day we'll be like You
There is no one like You
One day we'll be like You
There is no one like You
One day we'll be like You
Lord You're the only one who didn't sin only one who didn't bend
With temptation pressing in first Adam gave in
After that Abraham Noah did Moses did and many men before them
Yes even Israel after You split the Red Sea
After you rescued them from Egyptian tyranny
Many kings and many prophets many priest just couldn't stop it
Man is so sin prone yet can't atone for our own problems
Yet in the wilderness the tempted tried to get You to fall
Three times satan tried but got a word to resist them all
You overthrew the devil's power the demonic put to shame
Jesus is our high priest we've got peace cause he overcame
Yes through Christ alone (2x)
Anyone who's in the Son died to when they hung Him on
Overcame when He overcame resurrected when He rose
New creation new humanity our insanity was overthrown
Our Lord was tempted and tried
See the serpent with angel eyes
He saw the Christ in the wilderness
He salivated with anxious eyes
He came to Him with the same tricks
Turn this stone into bread it's been awhile since You've eaten
Has Your Father left You for dead?
Is this the place the Spirit led You?
And all this time He hasn't fed You
You're the messiah Son of God
Yet somehow He neglects You
He'll protect you
Throw yourself from the pinnacle of the temple
It's simple remember this is biblical
Caught in the lights oh my
You're just so caught in between all your lies and your dreams
You're so blind oh my
You know I'm right but you hide on your stage to the right
You know that I'm calling you can only run away for so long
If you knew it then know it would just stay the road that you're on
I just want you back at home you know it's where you belong
Would you come home it's where you belong
Just come home it's where you belong
Don't be caught in the lights
Little homie had hoop dreams man he loved sports
On the court he was short but he had a lotta heart
Picking up a basketball made him feel like there was hope
If he didn't play ball he probably be selling dope
No father figure in a single parent home
There's so much going on made him feel like he was grown
That he had to go hard in the gym like a champ
And all he thought about was him and his camp
He said fam we go'n make it that's all he had to say? Cause at the end
of the day I'm talking NBA
Contracts it's a fact mom ain't gotta a lot of grip
Know I gotta play hard to get the college scholarship
That's exactly what he did little homie's on the way
But little does he know that he is being led astray
Cause fulfilling your dreams may get you outta the trap
But there is a sin problem that is way bigger than that
The light
You know that I'm calling you can only run away for so long
If you knew it then know it would just stay the road that you're on
I just want you back at home you know it's where you belong
Would you come home it's where you belong
Just come home it's where you belong
Don't be caught in the lights
He say it self therapy and if he didn't rap he would snap
Plus his dream to make a hundred million flat is on his back
And on his shoulders homie's getting older
Accepting the fact that he can't get the time back
So he acts when he ain't in the studio
Hoping that that would lead to a movie bro
Heard em say that he is sick of being broke
But he ain't going to college and he ain't selling coke
So he spend a lot of time with a pen and a pad
Trying to make ends meet cause he's finna be a dad
Wanna get a record deal sell a couple mill
House on the hill fall back and just chill
Now he looking for that one shot homie trying to blow
But little does he know that if that's the way it go
That he could end up way worse than before
Cause you can gain the world and still lose your soul
The lights
Caught in the lights Oh my
You're just so caught in between all your lies and your dreams
You're so blind oh my
You know I'm right but you hide on your stage to the right
The devil took him very high to the highest mountain peak
And he said if you would fall down and worship me
All of the kingdoms of the world and the glory
Would instantly be yours end of the story
Jesus' mission was to rule all the nations
This is exactly why it is a temptation
No more suffering no more pain
Start the Christian cosmos let your kingdom reign
No Nero no Adolf no slavery the cross you can stay off
Bind the broken hearted heal the sick
Establish truth and justice no crucifix
But Jesus resists and goes to the cross
And trusting God's promises He doesn't self exalt
Would shed His own blood in the three He rose again
He wins the God man never sinned
[Verse One]
Racism, rape victims, priest and sodomy
Street people perishing from street theology
Unlearned ministers criticize seminary
While without a vision people perish there's no visionary
First class, second class, third class citizens
First Adam sinned then all became sinner men
Sweet like cinnamon for those who've been redeemed
And sour like lemons for those who have not been redeemed
Guns cocked in politics tell me truth is relative
We live in a time better to receive than to give
Videos are raising kids, lose your life over them rims
Little homies 13 smoking them Virginia Slims
Look at the poverty, taxes are robbin' me
Jesus come father me, Honestly God there's gotta be
Some type of dodging the internet and its pornography
Callin' my Savior, my Lord, who's offering me comradery
[Hook]
When truth hits the block the block should respond like
"Who is Christ?" let's place Him in the Lime Light
Forget later 'cause now dirty the times right
The time is now the time is now
[Verse Two]
Horoscopes, palm readers, psychics, and astrologists
Liken themselves to havin' knowledge yet it's obvious
Post-modernism is taught in these secular colleges
Science and evolution are tryin' to find the solution
Denyin' the crucifixion, denyin' the resurrection
Denyin' the second comin', they'll die in their destitution
Picture blood drip from His pores hematidrosis
Jesus is God even demons know this
The winds and the waves even they obey yo
Death and the grave even they obey yo
Picture Him dressed in a robe dipped in blood
Eyes like blazin' fire and equipped with love
Ridin' a white horse with many crowns on His head
He's comin' back already resurrected from dead
Now as we partake of the Bread, think of the blood He shed
Picture the Passover the wonderful things that He did
[Hook]
[Verse Three]
According to the Scriptures concerning the day of judgement
A hush will reign and every secret made public
A just God will justify and bring justice
Either the gnashing of teeth but Jesus people will love it
And when you study them Scriptures sin and death are the effects of the Fall
And each aspect is affectin' us all
So while God's looking down we look up and we laugh
But humanity's standing under the cup of His wrath
Since we seem to be so in love with reality shows
Then why is no one open to see what reality shows
Plus it's hard for me to even see the faith of atheists
Who believe we evolved from apes, in place of His Sacredness
Plus without Christ we're a guaranteed casualty
'Cause instead of watchin' our life we'd rather watch our calories
I know the truth will irritate like an allergy
I'm just tryin' to open up hopin' to show you reality
Start to cry sora no shita

Staring at the white above
Can't tell if I'm alive or am I dead
Or is it in my head?
Where'd I go wrong?
I'm Staring at the white above
One day I closed my eyes and here I am
A cold, unhappy man
I've come to realize the life I have I hate
The pulse I need is slowly fading
Until I've lost it all
I've been waiting for an inspiration
For a chance I never got to take
Before it's much too late
Where's the boy that used to run?
Could it be he's up and gone away?
He seems so far away
And all the things I could have done
Could it be they've up and gone away?
They seem so far away
'Cause It feels as if the boy in me
Has left and been replaced with a cheap and bitter
Imposter of myself
I must find the one that used to be
Approach him slow, don't be afraid to say
"Can he come out and play?"
Where's the boy that used to run?
Could it be he's up and gone away?
'Cause He seems so far away
And all the things I could have done
Could it be they've up and gone away?
'Cause They seem so far away
Now I'm Staring at the sky above
I've found a chance I'm finally going to take
'Cause I've learned from my mistakes
Where'd I go wrong?
Where's the boy that used to run?
Could it be he's up and gone away?
'Cause He seems so far away
And all the things I could have done
Could it be they've up and gone away?
'Cause They seem so far away
[Verse One]
All I ever wanted was to know the truth
Seeking Jesus at 16 meaning my middle youth
Man I really hungered and had this inner thirst
Absurd the thought of me even missin' a day of church
Man it felt like heaven, especially Bible study
I had my Bible pen and pad sittin' next to my buddies
The Word had us open especially certain verses
Spendin' hours in worship man it just felt so perfect
And then after the service out on the parking lot
Laughin' and rappin' for hours afterwards we talked a lot
Felt like your second family for me felt like my first
We lost our ties when my grandmother died I kept in hurt
Remember certain ministers inspired you to learn
You had anxiety inside and just waitin' your turn
People announce they callin' jumpin' and shoutin'
That dun dunt dun dunt it was so arousin'
[Chorus]
Give us the truth that's what we need
Lying leaders been deceivin' us since we were seeds
Give us the truth that's what we need
Teachers and preachers teach us the things that set us free
Give us the truth that's what we need
Parents teach us bout Jesus before we get older
Give us the truth that's what we need
Sin is spreading and the world is getting colder
[Verse Two]
Then that first year progressed and turned into five
Learning so much and I'm comin' in touch closer with God
Some things were gettin' sticky I mean real sticky
I'm trippin' I'm wonderin' was Jesus even really with me
Man I felt numb meanin' I lost my feelin'
People standin', dancin', liftin' hands while I was chillin'
No longer loved the sermons felt like I wasn't learnin'
The topics taught on weren't touchin' my inner yearnings
And then some behavior seemed like counterfeit revival
I looked for Scriptures that supported this off in the Bible
Yet I couldn't find it I felt blinded
I thought it was a demon in error I tried to bind it
But nothin' happened here comes depression
Maybe when they threw the Holy Spirit that I didn't catch Him
Did I miss my blessin'? Felt unprotected
In the midst of a war scarred without my weapon
[Chorus]
[Verse Three]
Then I left St. Louis on a tour with Cross Movement
And who would have knew it these dudes have also been through it
I shared my brokenness feelings of hopelessness
For so long faked my emotions no one even noticed it
Yet it was obvious God in His providence
Put me with people to guide me and got me outta this
And then my other brother T.R.U.T.H. began to share the same
I almost wept I saw the steps it took to bear the name
Without truth left me in utter confusion
Without truth left me with subtle delusions
Without truth no longer fought to win
Without truth drove me back into sin
The depth of this journey can't be described in words
This is just the tip of the iceberg
But from now until my death this is what I'll do
I'm learning standing and I'll fight for truth

VERSE Listen.../Though I'm a Christian my vision sometimes even get blurred/When I'm resisting His visits and not reading His Word/Desperate need to be purged/Easy to lose the wonder/Through these daily distractions banging louder than thunder/When I devalue my Savior and start treasuring trash/And longing for mud patches thinking it's greener grass/Exchanging eternal pleasures for the ones that's going to pass/Looking for ‘em to satisfy but they lie never last/When captivated and activated by my deceitful lust/Is a lack of faith in my Father's grace and I need to place my trust/In everything that my Father is and everything that He supplied/Through the perfect life of His Son/Death and resurrection of Christ/And I know I got to trust Him/All this sin I got to trust Him/World that we in I got to trust Him/How I'm going to live if I just brush Him/Knowing that my heart is mad disgusting/Knowing that the Father had to crush/Yes just so we can be free/Please give me eyes to see

Like Christ
She's always dancin' like every little chance she
gets/ and little man can't wait to get his hands on the whip/
they don't understand life nor the issue of sin/ but they
know the article and the issue that 50 was in/ you should
hear them spit little man is always tryin' to battle rap/ I'm
like follow me to the scriptures see where the battle's at/
but you can't you're watching College Hill/ I guess you
drop your cup and let the knowledge spill/ I'm lookin' for
the convicted to see who's new on the team/ and tired of
doing what they do on the screen/ in other words, tryin' to
see the ones that Jesus drafted/ no matter what round pick
you were still engrafted/ you ain't gotta walk miles for
cheesecake to be down with the squad/ faith through
grace will get you signed with God/ so let Him hear you
say/ "I wanna be like Christ" He'll change the person's life
after hearin' the sinner pray
Look at baby girl is cute as a baby doll/ it's hard to
reach her cause she's tuned into cable now/ she's
watchin' videos starin' at all of the boys/ she's a sinner she
doesn't know about Jesus' joy/ yet she knows about the
clothes and the latest fashion/ she should be on MTV news
with the latest action/ about what's goin' on lately in the
industry/ but she's clueless about Jesus' ministry/ she
doesn't know her and God are still enemies/ separated by
nature now there's enmity/ she's so silly you should see
her dance/ only thing that I'm prayin' is that she sees her
chance/ to meet the One with the world in His hands/ personally as
her Savior and start takin' a stand/ begin to advance and stop
chasin' a man/ I wanna be like Christ is what the Father is
waitin' to hear the young lady sayin'
You can't claim to be a Laker rockin' white and red/
see those are Rockets we headed with the righteous dead/
that's a category mistake like a solo group/ you can't take to
the grave those Manolo boots/ advice to you look to His life and
the blood that He shed/ the sin price cost Him more than an arm
and a leg/ and we ain't preachin' wrap it up/ you wouldn't have to
deliver if you put the package up/ get it? Everybody is lookin' for
somethin' to be like/ but other somethings are nothing unless it be
Christ/ the Bible instructs us we sinners and can't see light/ our
direction is left and sinners can't see right/ I can't wait til we finish
and get to see Christ/ Mike is retired seek the Messiah I wanna
You see the lights cameras looking like we bought to go hammer
One thing that's for sure I am not the one to rock the show
They show up they show out [repeats]
Hey beat check bass check microphone check 2
But none of that matters let the spirit come check you
So I play the background I know when to back down
Out here going hammer like Jesus is coming back now
I don't want the glory either why you think I go hard
Tell you like I tell my barber bro I don't want no part
Homie what's in your heart pride off in your pocket
You want all the credit boy what's in your wallet?
Sorry I can't control myself I lost it I ain't bout to lose it
Oops please pardon me for all this Jesus juice that I been spewing
Ruining my good shirt stomping got my foot hurt
Crucified for all my sins ya they call that woodwork
I spit loud as I walking round if you jump but that don't work
Like Elijah call them fire from the sky fireworks
Fire words at these people pray evil would be restrained
Lord we need you so we calling on your name like the Flame
You see the lights cameras looking like we bought to go hammer
One thing that's for sure I am not the one to rock the show
They show up they show out [repeats]
Paradise was lost Adam why you wreck it?
Messing round with trees and find out that he was naked
Then sin entered in boy I got a message Jesus
That they all infected and protection's been rejected
So I'm standing on stages off and on on these jets
Flight attendant is tripping just like she bout to flex
But I am not tripping on the way to as show
Gotta tell em bout Jesus cause they need to know
Oh no it really ain't about me bro
I shouldn't ever say that though what you think He saved me for
So that I can get on stage and the crowd get amazed and they pay me dough? Never So this smiles on my face when I step in the place and I say hello? Never
I'm gonna preach this grace I'm a teach this grace then I say let's go
I don't have a heaven and I don't have a hell
I can't put you in either but He surely will
Jesus stepped on the scene showed up on the cross
Showed out when he rose he did both for the lost
You see the lights cameras looking like we bought to go hammer
One thing that's for sure I am not the one to rock the show
They show up they show out [repeats]
I am not the one to rock the show (multiple times)
I can't feel my face
I just got anotha shot a bo-tox in my face
I move at a different pace
Because this is a race
And yes I will get first place,
With no chase
Slice a nigga like a blade
Give a nigga a fade
I don't play
I'm so tiered man, I needsome sleep
But niggas always creep
So I gotta stay on my feet
I gotta stay on beat
I gotta keep people movin 2 the moutha fuckin beat
I question myself, "Yo' Flame why are you tryin'?"
To live without the lion of Judah inside you are dyin'
Not communin' with the God of Mount Zion
Can't you see you're denyin'
The very God they can't break down to a science
I know you're young and you see some things
That you think you are missin'
Man, you trippin', you're missin', nothin' get back on your mission
You followed the flesh, next you would wallow in mess
Don't let thinkin' 'bout sex throw you back
Like a you're Mitchell and Ness
Don't get weary in your well-doin'
You were doin' well until you let your well ruin and run dry
Tryin' to fulfill them selfish ambitions
Making sinful decisions without repentance leaves only contention
Don't forget you're a professin' Christian
Them lyrics you've written
They don't mean nothin' unless they match your livin'
No one ever received elevation
Dibblin' and dabblin' and rappin' with procrastination
How long has it been since we've communicated?
Oh Lord, I'm tired of sin it keeps me humiliated
So much sin in the world we in and I've been regenerated
Oh Lord, I need Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, oh, how long has it been?
I haven't been girded with the full armor
I've deserted your word it turned to nervousness and then full drama
It's better for me to have never known
Than to know the truth and turn back to what is wrong
That's like spewin' from my own stomach
Then turnin' around and eatin' my own vomit
When I've been made clean and I don't mean comet
Lord, break me abase me make me face holiness
Shake me, shape me, make me face loneliness
Redeem me, rescue this vessel press through
So much just to get next to You, it's stressful
It helps to confess my test, it's just to bless You
Disconnected I need to connect to You
Where can I go to escape from your presence
You're omnipresent, You're present in hell and present in Heaven
Plus I'm weary and wounded, my theory's consumed in
Iniquity's union, my history is sick with influence
How long has it been since we've communicated?
Oh Lord, I'm tired of sin it keeps me humiliated
So much sin in the world we in and I've been regenerated
Oh Lord, I need Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, oh, how long has it been?
Lord, let these broken bones rejoice in a song
Givin' you glory until I get home
Never takin' my freedom and overthrow your authority on the throne
Livin' it holy until I get home
Desperate measures will I take from now on
To stay away from what I'm knowin' is wrong
Selfcontrol because my suffering is long
No more will I ignore the fact that it's on
Prayin' until You come back for Your own
I'm fearfully and I'm wonderfully made
Elected and affected by Your irresistible grace
And Lord that means something
Take my heart and then clean something
Make me mature and help me endure, please
Deliver me from the guilt and the filth, find me on my knees
Knelt down about to put my face to the ground
When I start renewin' my mind, it'll lessen the times I have to sing
How long has it been since we've communicated?
Oh Lord, I'm tired of sin it keeps me humiliated
So much sin in the world we in and I've been regenerated
Oh Lord, I need Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, oh, how long has it been?
How long has it been since we've communicated?
Oh Lord, I'm tired of sin it keeps me humiliated
So much sin in the world we in and I've been regenerated
