The Tiriyó (also known as Trio) usually call themselves tarëno, etymologically 'people from here, local people'. They are approximately 2,000 (in 2005) and live in several major villages and a number of minor villages in the border zone between Brazil and Suriname. They speak the Tiriyó language, a member of the Cariban language family.
Eduardo Gory "Eddie" Guerrero Llanes (October 9, 1967 – November 13, 2005) was a Mexican-American professional wrestler born into the Guerrero wrestling family. He wrestled in Mexico and Japan for several major professional wrestling promotions. In the United States, Guerrero wrestled in Extreme Championship Wrestling (ECW), World Championship Wrestling (WCW), and in World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE). Guerrero's gimmick was that of "Latino Heat", a crafty, resourceful wrestler who would do anything to win a match. His catchphrase became "I Lie! I Cheat! I Steal!," which was used in one of his entrance themes. Guerrero partly used this phrase in his autobiography Cheating Death, Stealing Life.
Despite being a villain for most of his career, he got over in and outside the ring being the youngest, yet most popular and successful of the Guerrero brothers. Guerrero was widely regarded as one of the most respected and gifted technical wrestlers in history. Throughout his career, Guerrero encountered various substance abuse problems outside of wrestling, including alcoholism and an addiction to painkillers. His real-life problems were sometimes integrated into his storylines. Notwithstanding these issues, Guerrero won 23 titles during his career, including the WWE Grand Slam Championship.
Rey Gutierrez Mysterio Jr. (born December 11, 1974) is a Mexican American professional wrestler in World Wrestling Entertainment currently wrestling on the RAW Brand. In WWE, Gutierrez was trained by his uncle Rey Misterio, Sr. and wrestled early on in Mexico where he learned the Lucha Libre high flying style that has been his trademark.
Gutierrez originally worked for Asistencia Asesoría y Administración (AAA) in Mexico, from 1992 to 1995. He wrestled in Extreme Championship Wrestling (ECW) from 1995 to 1996 and World Championship Wrestling (WCW) from 1996 to 2001, as Rey Misterio, Jr./Rey Mysterio, Jr. but dropped the "Junior" from his name when he began working for WWE in 2002.
Mysterio is known for having a high flying style, which helped kick-start the cruiserweight wrestling revolution in the United States in the late 1990s during his time in WCW. In WCW he won the WCW World Tag Team Championship three times, and the WCW Cruiserweight Tag Team Championship once with Billy Kidman as part of the Filthy Animals. In WWE, Mysterio is a three time world champion having held the World Heavyweight Championship twice, the WWE Championship once and is currently listed as the lightest world champion in WWE history. He has also held the WWE Tag Team Championship a record-tying four times, and the WWE Intercontinental Championship twice. He also held the WCW/WWE Cruiserweight Championship a record eight times (five times in WCW, three in WWE). All totaled, he has won 21 titles between WWE and WCW. Mysterio was the 21st person to win the WWE Triple Crown Championship, and was the winner of the 2006 Royal Rumble.
Sometimes I sit and reflect on the life I'm leadin
It's goin so fast it is like I'm speedin
Sometimes I wake up and it's like I'm dreamin
Already 22? 16 was last weekend
Been a crazy year, dad died I'm grievin
Man I really miss him, I wish he was still breathin
Two days later got a wife I'm cleavin
Couple weddin pics caught your boy straight cheezin
Now tell me how I'm 'pposed to fight, can your boy stay firm?
In this life when the joys and the pains take turns
You're at work in our world where some things they burn
You're not honoured when your boy can't learn
How I must respond to Your works and the cards that You deal me
Aware of my frailty I'm beggin You to help me
How can I be a steward actin' healthy
I know Your grace won't fail me
All of my life is Yours to own, You orchestrate it all along
And if my life is a cup come fill it up, so the whole world can see what
You've done
All of my life is Yours to own, You orchestrate it all along
And if my life is a cup come fill it up, so the whole world can see what
You've done
You placed me in the city that I'm in for a reason
Sent folks in my life that was friends for a season
Some exposed my flaws and my sin it wasn't pleasin
And others fell from the faith n was leavin
If I respond wrong I'm dishonorin' Your grace
And I'm kind of just a product of my mind and not the faith
But You are my Father the refiner full of grace
And You're the designer of my time and in my place
I could take the easy route and follow all the trends
Of my brothers and my sisters, pastors and my friends
It probably wouldn't lead to a disaster in the end
But I can't be followin the path You givin them
Yup, you made me me, with my own set of gifts
So I won't settle for less You bless You never miss miss
I'll be steward who You made me, steward where You place me
And I pray that You use me like crazy
All of my life is Yours to own, You orchestrate it all along
And if my life is a cup come fill it up, so the whole world can see what
You've done
All of my life is Yours to own, You orchestrate it all along
And if my life is a cup come fill it up, so the whole world can see what
You've done
You send the sun and the rain on Your servant Lord
Lord when You send them my way, I be respondin right way
You move and orchestrate the things in my life for good
I wanna use em in a way that shows em how Your grace acts
You been consistent every minute like I knew You would
I'm so in love with Your truths, I wanna trust You and move
I feel my confidence is high, Your providence for You I'm good good good
I've got no worries at all since I heard that You call
All of my life is Yours to own (It's Yours to own Lord), You orchestrate it
all along (all along)
And if my life is a cup come fill it up, so the whole world can see what
You've done (yea)
All of my life is Yours to own (it's all Yours), You orchestrate it all
along (it's all Yours)
And if my life is a cup come fill it up, so the whole world can see what
You've done
All of my life is Yours to own, You orchestrate it all along
And if my life is a cup come fill it up, so the whole world can see what
You've done
All of my life is Yours to own, You orchestrate it all along
And if my life is a cup come fill it up, so the whole world can see what
You've done
So the whole world, so the whole world, so the whole world can see what
You've done
So the whole world, so the whole world, so the whole world can see what
Verse 1:
Hey when they see ya boy, what's they first impression?
Probably not a teen redeemed from the worst transgressions
That's repented from the path of His first ancestors
Was cursed but since rebirth this person's dressed in
The glorious righteousness of Christ
They probably think I'm on the stage 'cause I like the mic
Or like to get hype, but really I'm laid back main
But sometimes could lose my mind if you say that name
(Who?) Jehohah Jireh, my soul's provider
Life without Him's a contradiction like bein' poor with Prada
I done wrote a lot of flows, in my soul's a fire
That shut up in my bones, ah my soul desire
Is for some slick guys to the know the Lord He died
But still the Son did rise like it was mornin' time
So if you think you fully satisfied wit a vette wit chrome
You better check yourself like playin' chess alone
I'm a stranger, is Earth really my residence? Nope
I'm a alien and I can't wait to rest at home
My dress ain't always fresh to def I ain't impressed wit clothes
But Christ, He's the key to life dog and death's the door (and rebirth)
Since the moment I believed, my flesh was broke
Sin lost its control and death its hold
So maybe now you'll understand and get up in ya brain
Why ya boy so young and unashamed
Verse 2:
They don't associate ya boy wit Christ Jesus kid
'Cause I got my hat cocked and my jeans is big
No suit and tie, tall tees and kicks
But you ain't gotta be a geek to preach that Jesus lives
So its almost strange when they see me hit tha street blocks
'Cause with my life I copy Christ like a Xerox
No heat cocked, I roll wit the Lord and
Wit a team full of Saints like I play for New Orleans
We hold each other accountable when seekin sound doctrine
Through Christ we been found not guilty without Cochran
We kingdom people selected to rep His name
Forget bout cheddar main, Christ is the better thing
I don't let no weapon hang, I don't roll wit thugs
That's holdin drugs and spendin all they dough in clubs
I roll wit a gang of believers that's crazy for Jesus
That's saved from the flames and unashamed of His teachings
Cats be like, "You just a baby, how you know about the Lord?"
To know Jehovah at His core we had to open up our swords
We read His word on a daily, His inspired text
And submit to the Spirit dog, we died to flesh
I confess, they tell us that our youth is bein wasted
Instead of jewels up in a bracelet, we speak truth each time we make hits
So maybe now its stuck up in ya brain
Why the 116 is so young and unashamed
Verse 3:
Cats don't really understand, they think I lost my mind
They hood on they back, but I rock a cross on mine
Walk wit Christ in light, blood bought plus I'm
Not dark as night, I'm light because I sought His shine
I was livin' for today, was always caught in crimes
Bout guilty as O.J., my talk and walk declined
The Boss of time and space, but I put that to rest man
I saw my old life, it wasn't right like my left hand
Now He orders my steps and with Him is how I walk bro
Got off the highway to Hell and I took the cross roads
Now I'm walkin with Christ, what beautiful thing
Its cooler than fame, more precious than jewelry and chains
Most think God is just old school like Kool and the Gang
They wanna be like Jeezy, Jay-Z and Ludacris main
But Im here today to say that if you want a greater day
Don't fade away, cling to Christ and His amazing savin grace
If you a Christian who accepted the King and you clean
We gotta move, the Lord is pleased when we play on His team
I hope young believers understand, I pray its in ya brain
Hook: First lets spit the truth/ Then pray the spirit moves
Let's serve Him in our youth/ We gotta let em know
Let's tell em they missin Him and that they sick in sin
Get they attention then/ We gotta let em know
Hey let's come and bring the word of the one that runs this thing
We young and unashamed/ We gotta let em know
Let's represent the king/ Let's help 'em miss the flames
Since they think this a game/ We gotta let em know
Verse 1:
Hey Anywhere that we go/ We gotta let them boys know
Why we speak, why we flow/ What we got all this joy for?
Who we makin noise for?/ Dog it's a automatic answer
All believers gotta stand up/ From Dallas down to Atlanta
Jehovah Nissi the banner/ Who saved us from Satan's slander
Get yo hands up/ He's comin hear all us holla Hosanna
We all will follow commandments/ In honor to God we stand with
His word/ A new brand of folks tryna follow his standards
We could be around some thugs/ All packin all hostile
We still Christian, we aint trippin/ Run up on em with the gospel
We could be up in the mall/ But we aint tryna ball
We tryna tell em only Christ can cure the sickness of the fall
We Christians standin tall/ We listen to His call
We love Him so much that we celebratin Christmas in the fall
So it aint no thing/ We aint scared to say
That we gon share our faith/ Yeah we gon let em know
Hook
Verse 2: So if you saved and taken out of your sin
Then you've received the Holy Spirits power within
Now you can read the bible and see how He can send
Some girls and guys alive in Christ to tell all about Him
But now you gotta learn the facts so you can tell other guys
How we don't deserve jack but Christ said He'd come and die
Rose back up in the sky/ We some heathens its true
But we don't never have to die if we believe in this dude
We can spread it where you live/ We can mess with them first
But after we done with them we hit the rest of the earth
It aint the best of your works/ The thing to save you is Jesus
We tryna let His word spread like contagious diseases
He saves who He pleases and He uses us
All His saints, His believers to move this stuff
So we gon let Him use us/ Tell em what the truth does
And we gon show some dudes love/ Yeah we gon let em know
Hook
Verse 3: I'm tryna hit em with the truth/ So they can get a better glimpse
The remotest part too/ We tryna hit every inch
It's the gospel/ Not only does it make better sense
But the only way to Heaven's through the one that's Heaven sent
Jesus Christ/ And we wont stop dude/ Until He got you
Not just the burbs but the hoods and the blocks too
Its no qualifications/ They can be part of the flock too
All they need is faith/ Call on His name is all they gotta do
But how can they call on Him if they don't believe
And tell me how can they believe if they don't hear nobody preach
We aint gotta do much/ God's truth is complete
Check Romans 10:15/ We got some beautiful feet
He's comin back/ If they don't know He died at the cross
They gettin left behind like conerbacks on Moss
So we feel a strong burden/ To tell em what the Word did
To save us from the furnace/ We GOTTA let em know
Who you rollin' wit (Who you rollin' wit, who you rollin' wit)
Are they livin' unashamed of His name?
Or are they trippin' fakin' this thang?
Are they livin' fo da kang a da kangs?
Yeah, Yeah
-Flame-
My cats don't chase fame
My cats don't smoke weed
My cats don't chase chain
No, we got what we need
My cats don't chase chicks
My cats don't sip on
My cats don't stack bricks
Man, we focused on the Lord
My cats got each other
We call it brotherly love
And yeah we draped out and covered in Jesus' blood
My homies they straight pray
My homies they straight fast
My homies are so serious
An' they ain't chasin' cash
My sisters are so serious
And they ain't chasin' men
My sisters guardin their hearts
And strayin away from sin
My sisters they dress modest
Ain't showin off all their skin
My sisters they run a race in preparation to win
My squad stay in this faith
Cause man we know we can slip
That's why we stay dependent and remain off in His grip
My squadron never forget that we were scum of da earth (earth)
Livin dead in our sin He came in and gave us birth
That's serious
-Chorus-
-Json
When I'm with my squad it might be hard to spot me
Cause we all look like a Jesus
Carbon copy
We church boys (yeah)
This is the charge I'm hoping you see the desperate need
Believers run together like the legs on a centipede (oh)
Oh yes indeed we fall but we get up Lifted up
By the body that's called to pick us up
So we must be surrounded by accountability partners. Without none,
Christian livings intentionally harder
Hope you're listening partner
Cause the fact of the matter is what happens here just hurts your walk
Like feet calluses look hard and there's something you should peep
You will see that we are the very company we keep, even me
(Who you rollin with)
Is it cat's that's complacent or
Dudes that continue to grow in wisdom and patience
(Who you rollin with)
Because this part here is crucial
Show our heart and hopes maybe the feeling is mutual
-Chorus-
-Trip Lee-
Look man we gotta roll with cats that's out shootin fo da same thang
Like target practice
God know as you look around it's hard in fact it's
Real discouraging instead of saints they all look backwards
But we gotta find some dudes (dudes)
Be up in the pews
Pray away from booze
Like to spread good news
That ain't chasin after chicks
That ain't livin fo dem selves
Ain't blazin up the spliffs
That ain't out der tryin to sell (yeah)
So take a look at the dudes in your squad
How they tryna be like Christ or Diddy, Ludacris, and Nas, yeah
And to my sisters, are the girls up in ya crew (crew)
Dancin like Beyoncé or followin His rules
Where we need accountability fo times when we gon fall (fall)
So when we start slippin we got folks that we can call (call)
They can help us get back (back)
Back to servin Christ (Christ)
We gotta roll with cats (cats)
That's after eternal life
Verse 1:
I seen cats and they demeanor and man it seems wack
They think that they level is close to where Elohim's at
They call themselves the King cause they proud of them green stacks
But He's the most high, the highest they gets on weed sacks
These dudes ain't on His level bro, so please take heed and let it go
I know you got some cheese, but He don't even need no cheddar bro
He's self sufficient, check His scriptures bro He's incomparable
It's best you go and check His Word, this bread is more than edible
Face the facts, you think you amazing because you make cash
But look around the Heavens and Earth, homie He made that
You can trace back His history, its filled with peace and great acts
He took the sin of men, the weight He took on Him would break backs
Lay back and peep this, bro this ain't no secret
I'ma hit you with some truth you may not want it but you need it
I know you fly and fresh to def, but homie you ain't fresh enough
I would say step your game up but you can't step it up enough
Hook:
Who else you know?
That's even anything like the Lord He's meant to reign
We ain't on His level man to say we are is just insane
Who is like Him? NOBODY! (4X)
Who else you know?
That's like our God and Father, He's the one that cat's should honor
Look He stands above man in His sight we grasshoppers
Who is like Him? NOBODY! (4X)
Verse 2:
Some folks trying to say they off the chains they think they so fine
They good at rapping, they album went platinum four times
They gon shine and even when they gone, they in these folks minds
But top this, my God existed way before time
Before He made anything homie, He just was
He's eternal, He just made you from the dust bruh
One day you gon pass on, but my God will last long
Drag on, longer than your chrome or all your rap songs
A lot will stand, saying they famous and got a lot of fans
But they ain't got no angels praising them they not the man
Cats should get they minds right, I know they in the limelight
But our God is infinite, they illegitimate and finite
We created, He's creator, We was made and He's the maker
He's supreme over human beings, though folks try to debate us
A lot of kids they got it twisted like some hair that's dreaded up
I would say step your game up but you can't step it up enough
Hook
Verse 3:
A few guys, know a lot of stuff and some dudes wise
But if they said they on His level then them dudes lied
Who guides the Spirit of the Lord or taught Him truth? I'd
Like to suggest that you see Jesus through some new eyes
Who measured the waters in the hollow of His hand?
Tell me who's the God who's marked off the heavens by the span?
Now tell me who calculated all the dust of the Earth?
He is Yahweh, God we make much of His worth
Tell me who you know, that's more powerful or even beautiful
That's truth and bro would die to save and raise after His funeral?
We tell men, that this God would let them drive them nails in
But still spreads out the heavens like a tent to dwell in
So the point is, He's greater than we are and man this joint is
To point kids, in His direction and where this joy is
Come on, no more fronting homie its bout time for fessing up
I know his Grace is amazing face it
ain't another like our God
from the foundation's, placements,
nations, they've been place underneath
his rod oh my God, your're the one
worth the praise so bump the peso,
cause u say so i keep your ways in
front of me until my days go so they
have the women they can keep the queso..hey ya'll
that's why we dont roll wit the drama
dont get drunk, dont roll marijuana not
beacause hell's hot like the coals in
a sauna but we love god and we go where
he wanna Himself, the best gift he could
ever give who can take a set of kids
trippin off a sedatives give them the grace
that pays their eternal deficit now we enjoy
God and all of his preeminance
Because of who he is
if im worthy dying for,
yes this God's is worth
living for beacause of who
he is he makes me want to
give him more and more, so
i take my body and use it
for the glory of God
that's why i pray every day,
gotta pick up my cross search
for the lost, no matter the cost...
He reigns over all, its plain since
the fall, our brains dont recall
Who he is His name's over all, His
aim is for all to remain in awe as they
see his beauty man is truly crazy, dude he's
grand His truth is great we dudes should
stand and truly praise the beautiful lamb
the bruised him greatly his life was the cost,
He died on the cross He died for the lost, we
know that So we ride for the boss, his high
we exalt, this christ in our thoughts, cant
hold back Exalt him up in our actions too we
crack them johnny macs and cruise the facts,
we grab his active truth, we happy when dad's in our view....
Tell me, who you know can control the globe
walk in his holy home, walk down a lowly road,
Roll where the stones get thrown at ya dome
cuase you made it known you're the son of God
on the throne he deserves mo, this is why we flow
not that we could ever pay him back what we owe but,
if we dont flow then we might as well go and let the
whole world know he is God all alone...
His gracious, great, He's way too good,
cant believe he made us kids no righteousness
in the place we stood, so he died and he gave
us his..you might wonder why we live that bro,
we ain't just tryna live by some principles, we
love him cant get enough of him, so thats the God
We like to talk a lot, about how we running this Christian race
But then when it comes time to walk it out, nah we don't never want to get in place
We don't even know what it's all about, there's a problem going on with the saints
In church Sunday, but that's all we got, and the rest of the world gon miss His grace
We see them in the parking lot, we tell them all their sinners and they're missing Christ
We got a couple scriptures we start to drop, but we got to be a witness, got to live that life
But nah we just talking stuff, we off in the cut, when it comes time to shine His light
But we got to rep the cross and His blood, got to walk in love,
Got to show cats the mind of Christ
We told them, that we this and that, we live and act how all should
Now let's show them that these Christian cats ain't really wack, it's all good
We wildin', now they think of Christians, think we tripping that ain't cool
We foul and, now they think He's missing, bro let's show them what it do
Hook:
If we gon get it for the Lord, then we gotta get on one accord
It's time we pick up all our swords, let's show em we Christians
If we gon get it for the Lord, then we gotta get on one accord
We told em we Christians, now let's show em we Christians
Verse 2:
They don't take us serious even though we be talking a good game
They poke fun and they jeer at us, probably 'cause we don't walk how we should man
Nah they ain't feeling us, no distinction we just looking the same
It makes me furious, we don't rep Him as much as we could man
We tell them not to curse, and to come with the church where Jesus at
So some got a lot of words, but we ain't never got no deeds to match
We avoid the blocks and curbs, but we try to tell them where to meet us at
Thousands of members inside to work, but it ain't nobody on the street with cats
We told them, that they welcome, that we love them and we filled with joy
Let show them, that we willing to come to they block where cats be killing boys
We slacking, we ain't showing love, we act like we can't give them truth
Where's action, they don't know His love, let's show them that we living proof
Hook
Verse 3:
We like to brag to cats, bout how we bought by the God who saves
And how He snatches cats, by the cross and He gets them out the grave
We got brains thats packed with facts, bout Him who was sent to the cross and raised
His Word is action packed, with works and words all about His name
So we know that's He great, but we don't reflect Him well
So when we told em that He saves, it was hard for them to tell
So it's time to live this thing, in light of the God who reigns
This is war like you ain't seen
This winter's long, it's cold and mean
[When life and death go to battle
Ain't no telling what'll happen] (x3)
It's war tonight, it's death and life
It's the kind of war you ain't never seen ever,
Soldiers getting riot homie, heads get severed
Death toll is crazy like nothing on record,
Civilians ain't safe, man, the troops might get ya
Came from the high cuz them guys gon' catch up
They never get tired, never let up
They fired up, wired up to put you on the stretcher
But is the good side tough enough? you betcha.
Yeah you got bad guys, you know they a problem
Trying to overthrow the king, yep what we call em
No life from the dark nights, no Gotham
This ain't fake death, no possum, can anybody stop them?
Tombstones everywhere, dead bodies rotting
Big glock popping, bodies still dropping
But I ain't gon' cry though, for just to get swallowed
The Father's sent his son, and the troops gon' follow
This is war like you ain't seen
This winter's long, it's cold and mean
[When life and death go to battle
Ain't no telling what'll happen] (x3)
It's war tonight, it's death and life
The son came down to the wasteland
We in a death-filled mess, he'll win, no leaving
No rest til (desk heal?), the fight ain't even
And death won't be left still breathing (Get em)
The son's on the front line crossing their borders
Invading enemy land but they can't floor them
A good troop will graze him, and they ain't even force em
But God used that sin to support him
They captured the King next thing them chops rang out
General is down, the troops are like, "We out!"
The life-giver dies and the other side celebrates
But they don't know that Hell is fate, the death they'll face
They never safe if he's a beast who'd the featherweight
Just when they thought they took him down he would elevate
Death could never take pride in that blow
Cuz the King beat death when he died and he rose
This is war like you ain't seen
This winter's long, it's cold and mean
[When life and death go to battle
Ain't no telling what'll happen] (x3)
It's war tonight, it's death and life
It really might seem like the war's still going
People still dying, sin is still potent
The devil's still tempting, and evil ain't slowing
Just wait until the trumpet gets blowing
The General is coming with keys in his hands
The death and hate is they'll, freeze where they stand
Cuz see they've been defeated, please understand
If they don't wanna see him, bro, the King is the man
He's a man of war, a beast on the battlefield
Obliterating all the evil forces that'll kill
Where's your sting death? Oh, you don't got it bro
Where's your victory? Oh, you've been swallowed whole
But when he's back, ain't no fighting Jehovah,
He'll toss you in a lake of burning fire and sulfur
He's a titan, a soldier who will wipe away tears and our fears
And all the pain and death will be over
This is war on sin and death
The dark will take it's final breath
[When life and death go to battle
Ain't no telling what'll happen] (x3)

Do not be deceived my beloved brothers, every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of Lights, don't get it twisted man

Uh yea, it's Wayne gretzky on his neck piece, (huh) got em feeling real hefty on his best week. Huh but let see (let's see), he say he make it rain, but yet the sky's still bluer than a gas flame. I mean let's make it plain, somebody keep 'em breathin', keep his blood flowin', and keep his heart beatin'. God keep em eatin', and it ain't no secret, don't get it twisted God gave him what he needed. (speed it up!) My life ain't never been mine, yeah I work hard and yeah I grind, but not to get rich man not to shine, not to get rich man not to shine. And I don't boast much I don't brag, cause everything I got man I got it from dad, and matter fact ain't one thing I have,
That God ain't put here in my hand,
So I say remember that your legs work, cause of em next time you running for your goals think who's really running it. Everything is under him planets, countries, cities, hoods, don't get it twisted God did it, done it, got it!? Good1

Say they fly, but that's a lie, man they got it twisted/ Rings are gold, crispy clothes, man they got it twisted/ I bet you think you a god but boy you got it twisted, tw-tw-twisted, tw-tw-twisted
Get a little bit a money stack a little bit a chedda then we get the game so twisted, 20-sum inches on a little bit a leather then we get get things so twisted/ I bet you think you so hard but boy you got it twisted, tw-tw-twisted, tw-tw-twisted

Yes sir, back on that thang, reflectin on life an it's happiness mayne, since I was born I had what I needed, when I think back ain't been lackin a thang. Clothes I got, soda pop, the home I got, the cash in the bank, the bros I got, the shows I rock, none of us lacked it was passed from the King, So many things was on to us, we holdin up on some dough for lunch and I'd say my grace and then get with the game. Never really thought of his mercy flows, never really heard the words before, every good thing is comin' down from the Father of Lights like a passionate rain. Yeah tell them to get back, yeah how they think they get that, my Father gave me gift wrap though He don't have to give jack. We ain't earned a single thing, oh homie, don't miss that, He gives because he's merciful now spit that, don't get it twisted. Hey yeah some of us are strugglin' they off in hoods, but still get mo' than they deserve look all he He does is good, He gives freely and He's perfect in His distribution, look, don't get it screwed up like you live in (Houston).
[Chorus]
[This'l:]
Some things that I think are good in life they make me nervous, anything my father give me though I know it's perfect, anything I get besides my death I don't deserve it, used to think that I was good to have cash splurging (ooo!). I was a trap star, sixteen phat car, anything that made me feel good was good, that far, kept them bangers with me like I'm good, gon' act hard, even kept that green bay too (yeah - Brett Farve). See my whole thought of good was out of context, didn't know what good was cause I hadn't seen the Son yet, ran around with different girls like it was a contest, young and dumb, foolish, too, I was on some nonsense (ooo!). Thought it was good that the whole hood heard of me, they thought it was good that other hoods wanna murder me, somebody call the cops cause it's an emergency, now I know what good is - it's God's love and mercy.
There is a young girl
up in her teenage years
Up in the world thriving with teenage peers
She’s popular
but there is one thing to be made clear
Low self esteem was the reason for her teenage tears
She thought she wasn’t pretty enough
Or cool as the next kid
Wasn’t skinny enough
So dudes she would mess with
So they would be chillin with her
And she’d feel accepted
And in the end what up she still get rejected
She couldn’t really see seeking the Lord
But thought she could find peace
in an eating disorder
Everytime she loose 10
and said just 10 more
But her friends all confused
like what you doing this for
Started to cling to this foolish disorder
Figured this out that she had it
The students ignored her
Dag I’m praying for my sister
That she would cling to the God
That can save and deliver
I’m praying for my sister
That she would cling to the God
that can save and deliver
True security is found in Christ
He will never leave you
he’s down and around for life
I’m praying for my sister
That she would cling to the God
that can save and deliver
True security is found in Christ
He will never leave you
he’s down and around for life
There’s a young dude up in his teenage years
Huggin a black grafitter
With his teenage peers
He still does it
One thing to be made clear
Not be the down with the rest
is his Teenage fears
And where he come from
Selling work aint that crazy
A few kats his age they had babies
All he wants to do lay around
And hang out crazy
maybe smoke something drank
got his vision hazy
Plus he just got the new Jeezy cd
Wanna be like the D boys he see on TV
Heard of church but aint got a suit that’s 3 piece
So he think that it isnt safe for him
some girls down the block
want a date from him
A decade down the road his baby will be ten
He’ll be locked up
I am praying for my brother
that he would cling to God
that can save when we suffer
I am praying for my brother
that he would cling to God
that can save when we suffer
True Security is found in Christ
He will never leave you
he is down and around for life
I am praying for my brother
that he would cling to God
that can save when we suffer
True Security is found in Christ
He will never leave you
he is down and around for life
Another young one up in they teenage years
Put on a pedestal
above all they teenage peers
Father’s a Pastor
One thing he made clear we serve Christ
But daddy couldn’t see their tears
See they felt insufficient
Like they could not match up to dad
No matter how much good they stacked
Like they was failing
every single test they faced
And felt like satan next to their expectations
Suicidal thoughts went through their brain
They dreams of killing myself
Didn’t realize Christ is perfect in our weakness
So they tried to hide it
like they life was sweetness
For infront of fam he was quotin scripture
Just couldn’t understand
he who wrote the scripture
Dag I am praying for my Family
That we would realize he died
So guys would have a plan b
I am praying for my sisters
That they would cling to the God
Who can save and deliver
True Security is found in Christ
He will never leave you
he is down and around for life
I am praying for my brothers
that he would cling to God
that can save when we suffer
True Security is found in Christ
He will never leave you
he is down and around for life
I am praying for my Family
That we would realize he died
So guys would have a plan b
True Security is found in Christ
He will never leave you
he is down and around for life
Yeah I’m praying for my family
That we would realize
That he died so guys would have a plan b
True security is found in Christ
He will never leave you
he is down and around for life
Speaking part
Yeah True Security is found in Christ
You don’t have to search for it in ourselves
Or in that dude or in that female
Or acceptance from men
True security is found in Jesus Christ
The only place to find it
Praise the Lord that he died
And we can come to him
Find our security in him
Find our everything in him
Creation's groaning, lost their hope and feel they always closed in Lots to
cope with, on the ropes, wish they was in the open This broken world is so
dim, our souls are searching, groping For one with hope to hold us close,
and set goodness in motion I remember growing up in Dallas, I thought me
and my close kin Was more than straight, our folks was great, not broke
that paper flowed in Not boasting man, just saying in my brain I didn't
know then That all went wrong, and it just can't go right like a broke pen
My mind was blind and cloaked in, but then that foolishness departed I saw
this thing's an ocean, and we just tryna swim real far but But can't nobody
float when we ain't got boats or no fins We need a hero to go in, cause our
solutions don't win Education can't fix it, more dough just leads to more
sin Medicine is temporary, government seems so thin With all these weighty
problems, that ain't shrinking they just growing Who's adequate to save us,
how about He knew no sin?
Like a G5 yeah you rushed to rescue me Took a cross in exchange for a crown
to save me You began the work and I know you'll finish And make all things
right when you come back Cause you're my hero, you already saved the day
Cause you're my hero, and I know you're coming back for me
Follow the steps bro, Adam sinned now we all dead so We gotta sentence on
our head like death row, everything is wrecked All creation is a mess bro,
In the fullness of time, in steps the hero no red cloak, He's Jesus No
flashing lights, glitz n glam, and no cameras He came to serve needy folks,
and point them to the answer You see Him healing, feeding folks, and
telling them the standard Our most basic need is to be ransomed by Jesus It
has first place, yeah we separated in the worst ways Even physically peep
how the earth quakes Separated socially, murder and the worst rapes Even
separated from ourselves, we in the worst state It's so major, that's the
reason that we need a Savior Cause the root of needs is separation from
Creator Jesus came humbly to restore us to our maker And later He'll
restore all that He made bruh, He's Jesus
God is not pleased man, it's clear that His standards missed The world is
running rampant with, sin it's an abandonment Man is feeling stranded,
feeling hopeless since his banishment God is angry at the distortion and
the mismanagement Evil is at work, but don't be thinking He can't handle it
He promised He would do away with all of it, dismantle it He's put up with
this damage in His world, but He's promised us That He'll destroy all His
enemies and then He'll walk with us New Heaven, new Earth that's where all
His sheep dwell Cause Jesus succeeded in every part of life that we failed
Died the death we couldn't die, paid our price with 3 nails Began the work
He promised, in the end we all will be well Already beat his enemies and
when His Kingdom's realized All those who oppose Him will see Jesus with
some real eyes Deliverance is offered us, the hero He is urging us
Salvation is exclusive to His people who have turned to trust
I give my gratitude (Jesus). You died to make all things new. My knight in
armour when our world is fallen. Your love's never failing. I find safety
Yeah
Hey I wonder if there is anybody else
Who is about ready to go home
I just wanna go where
I'm only breathing your air
Father hear my prayer
Take me there
Take me there
(I wanna see you)
I just wanna see you
Brighter than I'm used to you
Finally see it clear see it
Take me there
Take me there
Take me there
---(chorus)---
Yeah.
Tell me have you ever seen a
Brother so weighted you can tell by his demeanor
That he's really jaded Tryna get out this arena
He longs for something greater but they say he's just a dreamer
But he has a treasure that he holds like gold
Cuz he knows something that them boys don't know
Nothing seems funny when his money's so low
But when he thinks about the place man he really wants to go
That he ain't all obsessed with the cash he can stack
Because he's looking to the heavens where his master is at
But he does have treasure and he's storing it up
Seems foreign to us, it can't be stolen or rust
So when the cares of this world start weighing on him hard
And he's tired of the bills he's been paying on his car
He can't wait to be embrace by the Lord face to face
So he waits for his reward and he sings:
Tell me have you ever seen her?
She's sick with a disease and it's really tryna beat her
It's taken all her strength
She knows that it can't defeat her
Cuz she gon' be with Jesus
She's more than just a dreamer.
Her peace and her joy man it really ain't gone
It's all because she knows earth really ain't home
And even when she's by herself she really ain't alone
Her Savior's there with her while she's singing this song
She knows sickness might get her
And death might grab her
But she aint scared of death cuz she's trusting in the master
Was buried but he rose up a few days after
So death might attack her but death cannot have her
So she tells her family, "don't worry anymore"
When she's gone from the body she'll be present with the Lord
Her body will be raised, so much glory is in store
He is her reward so she sings:
Hey I don't know about you but I can wait till the day
When I'll be with my Lord and everything is ok
And I'll be just like him so sin won't get in the way
Basking in his glory that's where I want to stay
I place where shadows give way to the real
And circumstances can't change the way that I feel
Joy in my Savior that Satan can't steal
Because he's been defeated- yeah you know the deal
The Real Good Life
I can't wait please take me soon
Until them I'll be praising in the waiting room
Fighting by his grace
Can't wait to embrace the groom
Verse 1:
Oh yeah they talk a lot, they say they that they walk it out, they say they this
They making chips, their cake's legit, don't baller block or call the cops
They think they something, better not say they ain't or that they fake or fronting
Otherwise their duns wills ride with guns inside their range or something
That's what all they songs about, they long for wrong they all about
How they the stuff and they discuss how they all go that baller route
But me I take that smaller route, them ballers I'm gon' call them out
And say to dudes the King is true, so that's what I'm gon' talk about
Look I ain't got no cocky flows bout dollars copped when rocking shows
Or girls that pop and drop it low, or glocks that I'm gon' lock and load
It's not for show or lots of dough, I do this for His name
To get it out, not to get mine exposed, don't do this for the fame
No time to flow bout shiny clothes, or shoes, or golden chains
My mind is sold to the God who rose, His truth is on my brain
So while the average cats is backwards spitting battle raps
Wrapped up in their habitat of blasting cats, I'm rapping 'bout the Master's acts
Most cats just can't fathom that, that I don't the spotlight
It's not right, I'm not tight, I rep Him when I rock mics
So don't be looking at me, you see me just look on past me
I'm nothing special, just a vessel, service makes me happy
Hook:
Hey if you looking for a Superstar
I ain't the one you searching for, I came to bring some worship, bro
He's perfect I'm just dirt below
Hey if you looking for a Superstar
Don't look at me, you got me wrong, I been a sinner all along
Let's look at Him and not the songs (Repeat)
Verse 2:
Hey what you looking at homie? Get your eyes up off of me
The credit bro it's not for me, but the one who took the cross for me
He's holy, I ain't choose Him, He chose me, oh no He sought for me
Bought me, got me clean homeboy, get it right
What you looking at sister? I ain't nothing but dust bro
Who must go and rep His name, He gave me grace to trust so
I'm nothing more than anybody else, they in the front row
They think I'm special? I ain't much though no, get it right
Hey what you looking at homie? Nah I don't mind the autographs
And pictures but I ain't all for that, I'm preaching Christ and falling back
My mission is to lift up the risen who put the cross on back
I'm spitting to help them follow that vision, get it right
Hey what you looking at sister? Forget about my name and stuff
I ain't no entertainer, but hope this is entertaining just
So cats can hear His name discussed and trust the God I came to trust
His grace is enough for saving us baby, get it right

Bridge:
Get your eyes off me, I'm just dust from the ground
Put your eyes on Him, Christ the Son with the crown
I ain't no superstar, I ain't no superstar
Yes Sir
Yes Sir
Thriteen letters man ..
We gonna take a little look at the letter that Paul wrote to Titus.
And I'm praying that it'll help us see how we can apply,
get a brief overview, and encourage further study.
(Yea, lets get it)
Lets take a look at the letter Paul wrote to Titus,
yea, we 'bout to dive in, I hope you're exited (c',mon)
fo sho it's inspired, lets go and apply it,
arrive at conclusions useful to giving
Christ His glories that he deserves,
the story is in His word
Titus is all about giving Him glory as his church
from Paul, a bonservant, to Titus, they both fervent
Both serving Christ with their life with the most urgence,
Titus was his disciple, he left him in Crete, (Why?)
To keep the church in order, his lesson's complete . . .
With rules about elders, fools who need help and
Jews who do fail, stay tuned, see what He tells us
it may seem far from us, just irrelevent text
"Look, what if we not pastors?" ("but just rest for a second") "ok"
I promise I'll bring it home, let's invest in the text (c *mon)
I'm about to hit you with the hook, I be addressing it next.
[hook]
Let's be sound in faith,
in doctrine, in speech plus deeds
rep Jesus, the king, let Him lead us, please
plus we see He told us how we must be
let's read and trust Jesus who freed us, please
in our faith, in doctrine, in speech plus deeds
rep Jesus, the King, let Him lead us, please
plus we see He told us how we must be
lets read and trust Jesus who freed us, please
Paul told him elders needed to be above reproach
with love and hope and livin' all the stuff He spoke,
but then there are those who wear the clothes of elders
but bear the roles of false teachers not speaking truth.
so don't select those, correct those men (correct 'em)
and defy'em they tryin', they say they know God
but by they deeds they deny' Him
1:5-9 are the type of cats we wanna pick
for leadership within the church, them other cats we 'pose to fix
but hold up, don't tune me out, I hope that you endure and see
that these things are really marks of a mature believer
we can see that and apply it to our own livin,
instead of sinnin, trippin and livin with no vision,
don't miss the catch too (really?), it addresses me and you
and everybody in the body with some lessons we can use
so read it all and pick the parts that seem to be to you
Live out the sound doctrine, let people see the fruit.
[hook]
Let's be sound in faith,
in doctrine, in speech plus deeds
rep Jesus, the king, let Him lead us, please
plus we see He told us how we must be
let's read and trust Jesus who freed us, please
in our faith, in doctrine, in speech plus deeds
rep Jesus, the King, let Him lead us, please
plus we see He told us how we must be
lets read and trust Jesus who freed us, please
Let's be blameless and show consideration for men (why?)
cause we was just like them before he saved us within (ok)
It wasn't strange we had rage and hatred for men (men)
disobedient, diseased and enslaved to our sin (slaves)
But He saved us, not on the basis of men,
but thanks to His mercy regeneration begins,
Poured out His holy spirit, man He placed it within,
justified by grace, thats so amazing for men,
if we see this, believe this, we saved and free
We say "Jesus, lead us to engage in deeds"
forget foolish controversy and stay in sync
with He who saved us, and raised us, His name is sweet (c'mon)
I pray that as the body of Christ we model His life,
and reference the book of Titus to follow Him right,
and we're an accurate reflection as his beautiful church,
and let us rep Him with our words and our beautiful works (yes)
[hook]
Let's be sound in faith,
in doctrine, in speech plus deeds
rep Jesus, the king, let Him lead us, please
plus we see He told us how we must be
let's read and trust Jesus who freed us, please
in our faith, in doctrine, in speech plus deeds
rep Jesus, the King, let Him lead us, please
plus we see He told us how we must be
Yeah
Here we go again
Here we go again
Here we go again
I'm a snitch ain't ashamed of that
I'm a snitch ain't ashamed of that
I'm a snitch ain't ashamed of that
It's T Lee and I'm back with a fresh flow
Even though I ain't really left though
Listen in close, this is one ain't a threat bro (No)
I'm just tryna help you move like the metro (let's go)
The worst snitch don't cut it on the block
Ain't tal'in bout them dudes that be runnin from cops
Ain't tal'in bout them dudes that's pitchin that D
Not you, not me, I'm snitchin on me
Familiar with the fact that I'm wicked
Born with sin from the beginning I lived in defeat
Can't sin n hide em in the back just to creep
I'm frontin stuff pullin covers up like a sheet
I love Christ, I don't wanna let me sense lie
But it's hard not to keep it on the inside
Can't stray and start livin for me
Livin foul man I gotta blow the whistle on me
No matter I don't wanna see no trash
So I'm a put me on blast
Godliness I wanna see so bad
That I'm willin to put me on blast
I'm a snitch man, I'm a snitch
I'm a snitch man, I'm a snitch
I'm a snitch man, I'm a snitch
I'm a snitch man, I'm a snitch
Trip Lizzard and I'm back on the verse 2
Sin ain't a game look man it'll murk you
Ever since the fallen of the first two
But I can't perform no more no need for rehearsal
Y'all know how we like to do though
Frontin' like everything's nice when you know
You fallen real short of the life you shoot fo
We like kudos we don't like rebuke though
Now you gotta stop and ask
Do you hate sin and the life it has
Or do you wanna paint it like you got this sin
You stop it puttin all your stock in trash
I wish I could say that I'm always at my peak
But I would be lyin, sometimes I'd rather sneak
Since this sin'll be a pest of my soul till death
I'm a always be a snitch till I'm thrown to rest
No matter I don't wanna see no trash
So I'm a put me on blast
Godliness I wanna see so bad
That I'm willin to put me on blast
I'm a snitch man, I'm a snitch
I'm a snitch man, I'm a snitch
I'm a snitch man, I'm a snitch
I'm a snitch man, I'm a snitch
If you hate yo sin you can play this song
Hate yo sin you just say this homes
I'm a snitch, ain't ashamed of that
I'm a snitch, ain't ashamed of that
If you hate yo sin you can play this song
Hate yo sin you just say this homes
I'm a snitch, ain't ashamed of that
Young Trip L and I'm back with a verse 3
Sin ain't my friend in fact it'll hurt me
Praise God for His Word that alerts me
If I confess my sin then I obtain mercy
Proverbs 28: 13, James 5: 16 He'll turn me
I used to hide all the time till it burned me
Now I confess to the Lord it's the first thing
Then I confess to my fam that I walk with
Every nook and cranny, have I lost it? (nope)
I just wanna live in light of what the cross did
Ain't just tryna look Christ like I'm tryna walk this
I ain't gotta prove that my works are the best (why?)
If it was up to me and my works I'd be stressed
But Christ already did the work with His death
I repent by faith in His works, I'm a mess
No matter I don't wanna see no trash
So I'm a put me on blast
Godliness I wanna see so bad
That I'm willin to put me on blast
I'm a snitch man, I'm a snitch
I'm a snitch man, I'm a snitch
I'm a snitch man, I'm a snitch
I'm a snitch man, I'm a snitch
If you hate yo sin you can play this song
Hate yo sin you just say this homes
I'm a snitch, ain't ashamed of that
I'm a snitch, ain't ashamed of that
If you hate yo sin you can play this song
Hate yo sin you just say this homes
Yea, look
Eh, they say hind sight is 20/20, well they right it's behind me
Back for the third time, you know where to find me
Hanging on the coat tail of Christ who designed me
Keep me off your brain, in other words don't mind me
The Lord keeps me low no matter where them folks fly me
Message so timeless, the beats so timely
Spittin for my boss like He signed me
Usually roll with a group of brothers like the Isleys
We came to spit it for the King that you can't erase
We give you facts over music, call it databass (yes sir)
We press forward to the prize hope we ain't astray
No fallin back from the goal, no fade aways
Pour my heart out when I write till it pumps on the page
Beats over the beat, and it jumps on the stage
Cries out for the souls that are hurtin finna lose it
Here to lift you up call it elevator music
Eh, this that real life music
Get dem hands up for that real life music
Eh, this that real life music
Getcha mind ready for that real life music
Just wanna give you somethin real
Ain't comin atcha neck, no we ain't comin atcha grill
Eh look we know just how you feel, but we just wanna give you something
real
Look, eh too many spit that fake rap that most just can't relate to
They ain't got no maybach, they don't get to make rules
They not tryna make stacks, they just tryna make due
Waitin for that payback, for all the work that they do
We ain't in a dream world, we spittin that real life
We live in the real world, and know just what it feels like
So we pressin in like steel spikes
To stand in a fallen world it don't feel nice
Eh, even if you're rich or you gotta lota cash
You still not exempt as everybody on the map
We all feel the pressure heavy burdens on our backs
Everyday it's still hard, but we learnin like it's class
In this cold cold world, where them scammers be
And so many lost they footin, like an amputee
We know that everybody wonder why the worlds gone wrong
Got some real life music fo' ya dome, gone
Eh, this that real life music
Get dem hands up for that real life music
Eh, this that real life music
Getcha mind ready for that real life music
Just wanna give you somethin real
Ain't comin atcha neck, no we ain't comin atcha grill
Eh look we know just how you feel, but we just wanna give you something
This is the end of my show, this is the end I know
I can't perform no more (eh eh)
Can't fight this war no more (eh eh)
I can't endure no more, all ashamed and pain
I'm feelin strained and can't go on this tour no more
I'm so tired of this tight rope walk
Homie I might go psycho my life's strung off
Eh it's the rest for my soul can this mic go off
I ain't steppin on the stage tonight, shows off
This is the end of my show, this is the end I know
I know these chains had me trapped for a while
Don't know when I last relaxed with a smile
I need a Saviour ta crack through the clouds
Shows over gotta turn my back to the crowd
I know these chains had me trapped for a while
Don't know when I last relaxed with a smile
I need a Saviour ta crack through the clouds
Shows over gotta turn my back to the crowd
I can't perform no more (eh eh)
Can't run this course no more (eh eh)
I been tryna keep up this image to let em see that I'm different
I'm slippin and this is stuff that I can't ignore no more (they trippin)
Can't let these tears hit the floor no more (they trippin)
Because of fear I can't (afford?) no more
Is it a lie what I've been, tryna hide all my sin 'n
Imprisoned and can't no one open the door no more
Tired of tryna be righteous, got my world dark
Like somebody hit the light switch, I don't know where to start
Cause I really don't like this, it's heavy on my heart (nah)
Somebody get me out this crisis, my pain is off the chart (please)
This is the end of my show, this is the end I know
I know these chains had me trapped for a while
Don't know when I last relaxed with a smile
I need a Saviour ta crack through the clouds
Shows over gotta turn my back to the crowd
I know these chains had me trapped for a while
Don't know when I last relaxed with a smile
I need a Saviour ta crack through the clouds
Shows over gotta turn my back to the crowd
I can't perform no more (eh eh)
Can't do these chores no more (eh eh)
I'm feelin like I'm sick, it's silly so I quit
That's it, I just can't try to please the Lord no more
Cause really I'm sick of tryna make Him like me more (you feel me)
Cause every day I got a fight in store
I'm guilty so when I play I never like to score
No good in me n I'm sick of my plight I'm poor
They told me homie (whaa) the Christian life is better (word)
But they said to be holy n perform for His pleasure
But now I'm feelin torn cause the Lord is my treasure
But I fall and feel scorned when I can't get it together
But then something clicked, it's crazy I ignored this
But even when I slip, this ain't based on my performance
Christ was equipped, ran a race with endurance
When His flesh was hit, His righteousness was my assurance (yea!)
I know dem chains had me trapped for a while
That's in my past, I relaxed in Him now
Christ my Saviour He cracked through the clouds
Did it perfect, listen to the claps from the crowd
I know dem chains had me trapped for a while
That's in my past, I relaxed in Him now
Christ my Saviour He cracked through the clouds
Did it perfect, listen to the claps from the crowd
Vesre 1:
Yeah we was born sinners man, dead in the flesh
Unfamiliar with the Lord's livin man, He bled to the death
But we love our sin instead of Him, we fans of the flesh
If you think I'm lyin man, put a man to the test
We all full of lies, full of pride, full of dirty lust
And we put our lives ahead of God's Word we should trust
We all knew it was a dude above who made everything
But we run a way, love our ways, and never gave Him praise
But for some of us He made a way up out of this dilemma
He sent His Son, and he was strung out for wicked sinners
Now all we gotta do is trust upon the righteousness of Christ
And He got something new for us (What?), the righteousness of Christ
You may believe it man, but have you trusted in Him yet?
And realized your sinful life will thrust you into death?
And that you need Him cause in the flesh man is fadin
Time for self examination like you was the Dr and the patient

It's time for self examination, we need a self examination

Verse 2:
A lot of us claim to be believers but we slack in our walk
And we goin around everyday without our backs to the cross
And when it comes to servin Christ, we standin on the wall
But we say we Christian cause we went up for the altar call
That don't mean that we believers, that don't mean we saved from flames
If we ain't workin for Him our faith is dead like it say in James
If it ain't no better livin, we the same and steady sinnin
Just know that faith without fruit wasn't faith from the beginnin
It's a lot of kids that got it twisted thinking they saved
But homie they aint bout tha Fathers biz they sleep in they graves
And they gon be real disappointed man when they face judgement
And all along they though that they was saved, but they really wasn't
Sin's disgusting to the Father man, he can barely stand it
And the mark of the believer is keeping to His commandments
So if we content up in our sin, ain't seekin Jesus
We really need to cause we may not even be believers

Verse 1:
They amazed at how we living for Him bro, they tripping when we show
That He's so superior that's why we pick Him over dough
We don't need anything in addition to Him bro
He's sufficient for us Christians if you with Him then you know
That's why we hedonists, you need to listen to the flow
On top of the beat and rhythm, we forgiven so we go
In pursuit of He who's risen the beginning of it bro
He's the gem the streets are missing but we get Him that's fa sho
That's too great, we too glad to have Him
The true facts, dude that's true satisfaction
Dudes ask, why you chase Christ instead of status?
Because He's steady plus what I'm getting is everlasting
We used to chase after dimes, that was great they was fine
In the face, in the waist, the mistake we was trying
To find true pleasure minus faith in the divine
We was lying to ourselves, now we chasing the vine
Hook:
Them cats they try to gain but they won't be
Satisfied with the gain that they gon see
Them cats should try to seek Him cause I know the Lord
Satisfies beyond anything we'd hope for
Verse 2:
The motto of the culture is touch me and tease me, rush to the easy
Things that seem pleasing like lust and the breezies
Seek the plush, eat it up, I would feed me
But it wasn't much plus it would flee me
So I changed what I was chasing it switched from chicks
To the King He replaced em
Now I hit the script to embrace Him I'm changing
Sins seem less appealing when I get the real thing
I race to erase them
Forget about the cash, not simply because not a cent of it will last
But it's missing what He has
It's trivial if it's mission isn't living with my dad
Getting intimate with Him living for Him instead of trash
Now I'm driven by the fact as I strive to win
That He's glorified in me when I'm satisfied in Him
If I miss it then that's wack keep my eyes on Him
And I get it on the track I run hard to Him
Hook
Verse 3:
Now my life is the pursuit, of delighting in His truth
In His person, His works yeah I'm fighting for this fruit
Of His light in my life it's me striving to be like Him
Remember Him like the Titans, I'm dying to be renewed
Don't get it twisted like I am the reason to
Run forward to the throne, no the lion is in my view
He's shown to be glorious, when shown to be more to us
Than anything in sight pray our idols will be removed
It doesn't show the Lord's beauty, when I treat Him as duty
A God who doesn't truly, inside please or move me
So I reach for the truth He's my God a precious ruby
More entertaining than movies, greater than chasing hoochies
And when I forget I gotta take in the view we
Dive in His Word just to gaze at His beauty
And I really hope guys get the picture
True satisfactions in the God of the scriptures
Hook
Bridge:
Say I'm a hedonist I seek my pleasure
Not in sex nope He's much better
Not in wealth nah He's my treasure
Pursuing anything else will just upset you
Say I'm a hedonist I seek my pleasure
Not in sex nope He's much better
Not in wealth nah He's my treasure
Hey I was born less than human
I know it sounds crazy
But I was really born a robot as a baby
No real life in me, I just played my role
No self control, I just did what I was told
I got my first order, I was just a day old
But I didn't have a chance, cause my heart was way cold
My heart took the order, I couldn't break the mold
Sold under bondage and I couldn't take control
So I was just chilling in my robot clothes
With my robot friends, and my robot flows
Living robot ways, cause that's all I know
Till I heard I could be freed from my robot soul, I'm
like...
Hook
Why you always trying to control me?
You are not my boss that's the old me
Obviously you don't know my style
'Cause I'm not a, I'm not a robot now
I'm not a, I'm not a, I'm not a Robot
I'm not a, I'm not a Robot now (2X)
Verse 2:
The crazy thing is I ain't know I was robot
So I ain't have a whole lot of plans for me to rollout
I thought I was unique, I thought I was so hot
But I was just like them other drones, I was so locked
Brainwashed, I was listening to lies
The freedom that I thought I had was really a mirage
I made my own choices, but it was a disguise
The only thing I really did was pick a different lie
So I was still a drone, nothing but a clone
I only knew the lies cause that's all that I was shown
But I been remade, my heart is no longer stone
Where my X-Robots who can sing this song?
Now I've been remade, I'm no longer hollow
A real man came, changed everything that I know
He gave me truth, that's a hard pill to swallow
He gave me new commands, and he freed me up to follow
Hook
Bridge:
I am not your robot, I am not a clone
You are not my puppeteer and I am not a drone
Got a new master and I follow Him alone
I want a good life till I'm gone
Verse 3:
Hey world, you know I see your game
And I don't need your lies, I ain't worried bout a
thing
Hey devil, I know you want me chained
But you have been defeated, and your power has been
drained
Hey flesh, I know you bear my name
I know you love the lies, but I'm steady tryna change
You mighta been confused, but this a new day
I'm saved now, I ain't gotta do what you say!
To my friends, who are still on lockdown
Still controlled by their passions, stop now
He can free everybody from the top down
If you're freed up, say this with me right now
I'm not a, I'm not a Robot now
I'm not a, I'm not a Robot now
I'm not a, I'm not a, I am not a Robot
Verse 1:
Ah what a relief it is
To be in Christ He's the life that I need to live
I'm in love with the fact, that some sheep are His
What would for your own? He would bleed for His
I heard of other Gods, but none of them are like Him
They sit up in they paradise lamping
But He's perfect and it's odd, cause though they would deny Him
He came down and met His own standards
His own commandments, and laws
But man we are flawed, none of us could stand since the fall
But His plan was to call, He who answered was called
A son, when you come all your sins are dissolved
Yep I'm in awe cause I'm sick of my sin
But since we been bought we've forgiven through Him
A great family, we in it's crazy
The road that we travel is slimmer than Shady
Hook:
Ah what a relief it is
To be in Christ, He's the life that we need to live
What a relief it is to be in Jesus
What a relief it is to rest in you
Verse 2:
Ah what a relief it is
To be in Christ He's the life that I need to live
I'm blown away when I peek at the deeds He did
I'm quite speechless, He's more than Easter His
Great advent destroyed the works of the demons and evil prince
Let His deeds convince
Seen by some as a great man who teaches sense
And good morals, but please don't be content
With that reading of Jesus, He was sent
He made legions and seas repent, anyone's weak
People are feeble, with evil bents
Name stuff, all things they sit at the Son's feet
The wage we earned was lethal hence
The death He had to die, wrath satisfied
Now believers are righteous in the legal sense
Justified by His grace, let our deeds convince
Hook
Verse 3:
Ah what a relief it is
To be in Christ He's the life that I need to live
When my life ain't right, gotta peak at His
Take notes, see what true strength and meakness is
He lived the we couldn't, cause we rebel
We so sinful, and we let them deeds prevail
But even if we tried, to seek Him in our lives
We can't, we weak and we need Him to provide
Just look at our corruption there's a clear problem
The raping, the robbing to God it's disgusting
The lust and the pride can't just be covered up
With a bunch of other stuff we must trust Him
I praise Him that we did, some was bumping in the club
Others was toting a pump and running with them thugs
But look at us now we ain't running with them bloods
Look I don't know what they told you but if it don't match up
With His holy Word then homie they need to back up
Some they pretend like they get Him they twisting facts up
That's why we dig in the scriptures to know the Master
Homie, we have to if we want to get past the Only thing we know being what we learned from the Pastor
I really hope your listening, my listeners cause after
We want to see Him clear like a big screen plasma
Half of the cats I seen they don't really know the Lord
They think my views are extreme, think I'm going overboard
But they ain't read a page of the place where He's spoken for Himself in the matters, man that's what I be quoting for
Some say He don't exist, nah that don't even make sense
This Earth is masterpiece somebody had to paint this
Forget the big bang, or evolution and face this
He's the King of Kings and author of all creation
Some say He made it then lets it run like a clock
Nah, He controls every soul and every action on the block
If it happened then He watched and it happens on His watch
No surprise in His eyes, no my God's never shocked
Hook:
I don't know what you heard, I don't know what you heard
I don't know what you heard, hope it matches with the Word
I don't know what you think, I don't know what you think
I don't know what you think, homie time to get it straight
Verse 2 - Tedashii:
Wonderful, Counselor, Masterful
This is Jesus Christ, LORD, all capitals
This is why Trip and I trip after the mass appeal
Of people, who pigeonhole Jesus as a pacifist, Whoa!
A prophet with no power in His plasma
Still we preach against the views that Arius profess to have of Him (look it up!)
Meaning the deifying of Jesus was nothing more than an accident
But the Bible's the proof that refutes and gives us facts on Him
That He was, what His Daddy was Homousia, the God-Man
sent to save us all that He loves
And set us free from sin and shut it down like it was Attica
Anyone disbelieving this truth may want to back it up or back It up
Because the Son of Man is coming that's what's up and at His judgment seat is where you will see
His holy wrath is just
But God is Love, that don't mean He's weak! Hey check His resume
Just cause He lets you breath don't mean He won't take His breath away
Hook
Verse 3 - Trip Lee:
These days in the church, most cats got it twisted
Don't let them fool you on how we posed to live this
For instance, some say to come to Christ for riches
Or maybe your blessing, but my question is what is this?Cause that ain't the gospel, that if you put your faith in Him
To come to the Savior, and then you'll rake that paper in? Face it friends, they made Jesus they holy ATM
Paul would appalled, this gospel would be disgrace to Him
This false gospel strips Him of His flyness
He's more like your servant and less like His Highness
So please don't buy it, that idea is absurd
Jesus said the Christian life can be strife and it's filled with hurt
Look homie I would hate for, cats to get that fake stuff
And never know it's wrong cause they wont open a page up
Hey I still recall the day the doctor told me that I was sick
And my mind keeps going back it was a trip
Look I was thinkin He ain't know the facts
Probably cause my heart couldn't get a hold of that
He said that I was terminal and that it spread quick
And my whole body was infected I'm desperate
My minds racing at this point I wanna exit
Cause all His tests suggested I be dead quick
But honestly man I really shoulda seen the signs
I was blind no I couldn't read in between the lines
I was numb so I couldn't feel my fever climb
But my whole system was foul (fowl) like comedic lines
No way to treat it fine
I staggered out like I was drinkin wine
I wasn't even tryna think about of my plans for the evenin time
All I could think was I was weak and dyin
I was reminded of the life that I would leave behind
And so
I know it's headed for me soon and I'm terrified
I'm afraid of what's coming and I'm scared to die
But it ain't lookin good for me, now it ain't lookin good for me
I know it's headed for me soon and I'm terrified
I'm afraid of what's coming and I'm scared to die
But it ain't lookin good for me, now it ain't lookin good for me
Now I got home and it hit me in the worst way
I've been sick with this disease since my birthday
I was ridden with symptoms since my first day
Head to toe my whole system in the worst state
I was mentally I'll, I was futilely mind
Darkened in my understanding was a student of crime
Havin eyes couldn't see cause I was truthfully blind
Havin ears couldn't hear but couldn't do any signs
Throat was an open grave, tongue used for the lies
Snake venom under lips which I would use to divide
Had chips on my shoulders was wounded aside
Both my lungs collapsed inhalin 2nd hand pride
Below the waist was just more of the same
Feet swift to shed blood or somethin more was to gain
Man it's bad blood simply pourin through my veins
Can't ignore it anymore, ain't the story the same, I was in pain so
I know it's headed for me soon and I'm terrified
I'm afraid of what's coming and I'm scared to die
But it ain't lookin good for me, now it ain't lookin good for me
I know it's headed for me soon and I'm terrified
I'm afraid of what's coming and I'm scared to die
But it ain't lookin good for me, now it ain't lookin good for me
My whole life been exposed as dark
My disease had my deeds hittin off the mark
But I had loved my illness even from the start
Look everything was a symptom of my broken heart
It pumped corruption to every single part of me
It's pumped death and deception through arteries
My direction was set to invest in reflect n deception
The? n my best n my death wasn't far from me
Cause I tried to beat the symptoms now
It wouldn't matter cause my heart would keep me livin foul
I was helpless and hopeless it's endin now
Unless I get a new heart well this is how
I heard that there were others with the same plight
But there was One begotten Son who can save life
And His heart was so perfect He gave life
My heart of stones been exchanged I've been changed right?
I know it's headed for me soon and I'm terrified
I'm afraid of what's coming and I'm scared to die
But it ain't lookin good for me now it ain't lookin good for me
I was told that God's standard is so high. My broken heart kept me from
meetin His standard, so I just kept fallin short over and over and
overagain. And there was really nothing I could do, it was not looking good
for me. I guess my question for you is, since God's standard is perfection
and none of us meet it, how do you plan on getting by? I know how I do, and
I told them brothers that his standard's too high
I ain't stutter but they wonder how I plan on getting by
I just tell them I ain't got no worries, we ain't worried bout a thing
Nah I ain't got no worries, we ain't worried bout a thing
I told them brothers that his standard's too high
I ain't stutter but they wonder how I plan on getting by
I just tell them I ain't got no worries, we ain't worried bout a thing
Nah I ain't got no worries, we ain't worried bout a thing
Yeah I'm focused on the prize, my homies by my side
We bumpin Sho Baraka while we rolling in the ride
We got the windows open, hoping they can hear the cries
But no fear is in our sight, man you can focus on my eyes
We ain't worried bout a thing, we got hope you can't describe
It ain't because we perfect, we got motives that should die
Let's be open, we broken, we ain't posing in disguise
Our hearts is cold and fallen like some snow up in the skies
Hey if you know me then you know, I ain't got a clean past
I had idols in my heart hoping for that green cash
Instead of chasing treasure, I would chase obscene trash
I deserve the see wrath, but He switched the scene fast
(Hold up) I can't find a way get this out in words
Other than to say that I don't get what I deserve
I'm so filthy but seen as not guilty
I'm obscene but I'm seen like I'm clean, what it mean?
I told them brothers that his standard's too high
I ain't stutter but they wonder how I plan on getting by
I just tell them I ain't got no worries, we ain't worried bout a thing
Nah I ain't got no worries, we ain't worried bout a thing
I told them brothers that his standard's too high
I ain't stutter but they wonder how I plan on getting by
I just tell them I ain't got no worries, we ain't worried bout a thing
Nah I ain't got no worries, we ain't worried bout a thing
You might have seen us on the block, or seen us in the stores
A clique of us who chilling, not the cleanest with the clothes
Not the hottest with the cars, or the meanest with the flows
But we smiling like we styling, cause He freed us from His blows
The Father hates sin, and that's the thing that we had chose
And yeah that caused a problem, it's the King that we opposed
We worked against Him daily, which brought us to be his foes
It was a wrap, unless we found a way to clean us like some clothes
Many of us tried but we failed on a daily
Falling short was crazy, we thought that we could be better
But then I saw that my efforts couldn't save me
Because of all my dark nights minus Heath Ledger
But I heard of a way to be acquitted of my crimes
Entered a new era that's been fitted on our mind
So our thinking's really changed, we linking with a chain
We don't get what we deserve, it's really strange
I told them brothers that his standard's too high
I ain't stutter but they wonder how I plan on getting by
I just tell them I ain't got no worries, we ain't worried bout a thing
Nah I ain't got no worries, we ain't worried bout a thing
I told them brothers that his standard's too high
I ain't stutter but they wonder how I plan on getting by
I just tell them I ain't got no worries, we ain't worried bout a thing
Nah I ain't got no worries, we ain't worried bout a thing
So when this life is over, no Hell we tell them hold up
No burdens on our backs we brush the dirt off of our shoulders
Look I know what we saying sounds backwards like we Yoda
But I praise Him for the Gospel and the fact we got exposure
We ain't staggering we walk the straight and narrow cause we sober
We press into the Kingdom by the power of Jehovah
And again, I can't find a way to get this out in rhymes
Verse 1:
I see you as this miraculous Dad, and I can't get past this
Your greatness surpasses the most that I could imagine
Yo vast and fabulous status Lord, is more than magic
The Lord my master, outlasting time and matter
I'm prayin' Christ is flattered by this expression of love
And can't wait to be resident of the Heavens above
And live forever wit' ya', this young fella's in love
And I'm stayin faithful, you tell us that you jealous in love
So I put no one before you, no, I can't ignore you
I adore you, the Lord who is good, I need some more you
You paid the price that I couldn't afford to
And since you saved my life Lord I've begun to explore you
And to see the things you capable of
Yes, I'm embracin ya love, Father you faithful and just
Yes, I'm saved by ya blood, and more than grateful for what
You've given me by grace, Lord, I pray we stayin in touch
I need more
Hook:
You proved your love to me
You're all that I'll ever need
And now my heart has come to see I need you
More and more everyday
Cause your grace is so amazing
Your love is so inviting
And now my heart has come to see I need you
More and more everyday
Verse 2:
Lord, the world try to tell me that lovin you is wrong
But I can't get enough of you, my love for you is strong
For you it's no substitute, I'll run to you as long
As you keep bein faithful, I know that won't change though
I'm grateful for the Son, I'm in love with you for life
Though I trouble you, won't trade you for nothin in this life
You the king, so I praise you through trouble and the strife
If you keep bein you, but yo, I know that you immutable
So it's no fear, I'm confident in yo providence
A lot of kids reject it, I accept it and it's obvious
But I gotta give you credit, really to be honest
I'm glad to say I'm ya bride, I know you'll stay by my side
The great Savior that died, I was a slave you abolished it
You got me, and you showed me yo Word, I vow to follow it
I'm all up in yo grace and mercy, I'm honored to fall in it
It's true I call on the sovereign ruler of all
I need more
Hook
Verse 3:
Lord, I'm so pleased to live for your glory alone
The Lord on the throne, I wanna get some more of you, Oh
So glorious, I always got the Lord on my dome
For sure sometimes I'm forced to hit the floor in a song
To my knees in surrender, to Jesus my defender
I'm so pleased that He sent ya, I'm redeemed and a friend to
The King of kings, I can't believe it, I'm in love
With you, more than a reason for Easter or Christmas
Vamp:
When I'm walking with you (More)
Talking to you (More)
In everything I say and do I need you
You're what my hearts been lookin' for
All you've been searchin' and lookin' in all the wrong places
Search no more. Love is here.
Hey I had to write this song 'cause the masses are mistaken
They've confused the word love with infatuation
Its sad 'cause when we lackin love the wrong path is taken
They missing out 'cause getting true love is past amazing
It's more than a passing statement, a short lasting craving
It ain't refusing not to wait, it ain't mad impatience
Some been tryna find love in that guy or gal they dating
And before long they hormones are fastly raging
Yeah true love is a must, but that ain't love, it's lustin'
Love would never ask you to ungodly stuff
Its honest plus, it ain't wrong and hard to trust
Its everlasting and can't happen when the heart's corrupt
Resting on false love you must realized you'll plummet
'Cause real love is much more than butterflies in ya stomach
Most of us are out of line 'cause really the bottom line
Is we looking for love but ain't sure what we tryna find
You tried the pleasures of this world but still there's something missing
'Cause when you close your eyes at night you can feel your heart still searching
I know you tired of being let down so you look for love in all the wrong places
So search no more 'cause it's the life of Christ your soul's been missing
We must learn that love is perfect, it never will fail
I'm ready to tell, its needed and forever prevails
It's so glorious, I'm sure we need some more its true
The world's confused and seems to have a distorted view
Most think love's a sweet kiss, a nice statement in time
But don't know that love is sacred, its patient and kind
It's not filled with sinful jealousy, doesn't brag and boast
It's priceless and can't be bought with a stack of dough
It's so true. It's not rude. It doesn't seek its own
It's selfless, I'm telling this because we need to know
It's not easily angered, keeps no record of wrongs
It forgives, it's a blessing and forever is strong
It don't delight in evil but it likes the truth
It's liberating never fading and it's righteous too
I'd like for you to put love first in here
It always protects, always trusts, hopes, and perseveres
You tried the pleasures of this world but still there's something missing
'Cause when you close your eyes at night you can feel your heart still searching
I know you tired of being let down so you look for love in all the wrong places
So search no more 'cause it's the life of Christ your soul's been missing
I can't stress enough the fact that love will never end
It's eternal better than this other stuff so let it in
Such an unusual experience beyond expression
We need it, we gotta seek it, yeah love is a blessin'
Utter perfection, but something most guys will lack
So the remaining real question's, "Where you find it at?"
I know you wondering if you don't wanna die and miss love
Seek Christ, 'cause the Bible says that GOD is Love
For GOD so loved the world, HE would redeem you and me
Yeah it was love that made HIM bleed and cling to a tree
That's the truth, so without the SON you losing
HE shows love and for that there's no substitution
We try to fill the void with things of all sorts
But let us stop settling for things that fall short
HE can be the lover of our souls turn now to Christ
Lookin' for love? Well true love is found in Christ
You tried the pleasures of this world but still there's something missing
'Cause when you close your eyes at night you can feel your heart still searching
I know you tired of being let down so you lookin' for love in all the wrong places
So search no more, 'cause it's the life of Christ your soul's been missing
You tried the pleasures of this world but still there's something missing
'Cause when you close your eyes at night you can feel your heart still searching
I know you tired of being let down so you lookin' for love in all the wrong places
You know we feelin like we can't move many times
So we waitin for a break through at any time
So many things that we can't do, we really find
That any climb can be strangled in any grind
Can get tangled we get behind
And in the end they find, we feelin trapped like prison time
Got big vision, we're beginning tryin
But ain't grinnin when we gettin to the finish line
And we all feelin like we been tryin for too long
This day been racin through my mind for too long
I can't be runnin in place, do I need to save face and move on?
I watched friends fall short, I've seen many cryin
I watched my dad breath his last, we are really dyin
If I can grasp in my past, I see many times
When I was really tryin, but was limited by His design
This is the way that life will be, limitless You put limits on me
By Your grace, help us see, this is Your design
This is the way that life will be, infinite You made finite me
By Your grace, help us see, this is the way this is the way that life will
So many things that we wanna get our hands on
So many heights we wanna reach that we planned on
And we was thinkin we just missed our chance homes
But our reach ain't long enough no matter what we stand on
I'll never be the kind of rapper that I like to be (yea, yea)
And I can see all the books that I like to read (yea, yea)
And twice the speed all the folks that I'd like to reach
I like to speak, but I'm limited my might is weak
Though God was pleased with the creation of man
We still gotta understand the limitations of man
Many of us stuck in the days of the trance
Man, thinking we can do some things that we can't
You may be thinkin you beast but believe me
You still gotta sleep in the evening,
Ya you still gotta eat, need heat when it's freezing
You peak for a season, but peep what we speakin
This is the way that life will be, limitless You put limits on me
By Your grace, help us see, this is Your design
This is the way that life will be, infinite You made finite me
By Your grace, help us see, this is the way this is the way that life will
I know some folks who ain't poor they crusin
We can work hard but if the Lord ain't movin
No fruit in store man before they ruin
They should trust God who supports they doin
We not in control of the earth He's the owner
One day we get work, next day we a goner
Humanity's not getting any stronger, so we shouldn't front any longer
Behold the God of wonders, He has no hunger
Never does He sleep or He slumber
He's never limited, no enemies can ever come up
We're the victory He's got the one up, He runs us (He runs us)
So let's submit to that King who's in the skies
This is something that we can't do in our pride
Humble yourself under His name dude He is God
All powerful until the end of time
This is the way that life will be, limitless You put limits on me
By Your grace, help us see, this is Your design
This is the way that life will be, infinite You made finite me
By Your grace, help us see, this is the way this is the way that life will
This is the way that life will be, limitless You put limits on me
By Your grace, help us see, this is Your design
This is the way that life will be, infinite You made finite me
By Your grace, help us see, this is the way this is the way that life will
I don't really want it but it's calling my name
"Will you come and get me I can take away the pain
Come a little closer you got everything to gain"
But I got to much to lose I'm bout to go insane
I been here too many times got my head low
If I gave a dime for every time I'd be dead broke
I feel that battle in my soul the pressure closing in
My passions asking for a pass and I can't hold it in
There I go again no self control again I'm too good at giving in
Feeling like throwing in the towel the guilt is closing in
Sometimes I climb the heights but I'm at my lowest sin
Cloaked in deception and overdosing on potent sin
I'm so gone baby wanna be home again
Wanna feel whole again come fill this hole again
Now I'm doubled over with my face in my knees
At your side is where I wanna be
But there I go again I'm falling
Face to the pavement
Once again faced with the same sin
(There I go again I'm falling)
I don't think I'm a make it
Don't know how much longer I can take it
(There I go again I'm falling)
So I'm caught up in this sin
I wonder if I see Your face again
(There I go again I'm falling)
Falling [x3]
There I go
Trying to keep it cool I don't wanna lead em playing
But it's hard to block out everything that she be said
Look like keep coming baby just reach out an take my hand
There's no need to fear me all I wanna do is dance
I believe the lie now I'm headed for a door
They have finally got me locked and I'm bout to be the song
Feeling like I'm watched by everybody in the room
Cause they know I'm a fake and if not they will soon
Have you ever felt like the walls finna close in
Shackles on your hands and your feet and your dozing
Sleep til the logic you possessed before all of the mess
Sound so be headed mess with the rest what's left
Is a schizophrenic
Shell where a man once was
Now you get to see the damage your lust does
So now I'm doubled over with my face in my knees
At your side is where I wanna be
But there I go again I'm falling
Face to the pavement
Once again faced with the same sin
(There I go again I'm falling)
I don't think I'm a make it
Don't know how much longer I can take it
(There I go again I'm falling)
So I I'm caught up in this sin
I wonder if I see Your face again
(There I go again I'm falling)
Falling [x3]
There I go
Everytime I fall He go'n pick me up
The Lord is my shepherd homie
Go'n pick me up
I fell into the trap again but He go'n pick me up
Remind me of His promises in Him I put my trust
I don't never have to give in to the lies
I'm feasting on His word all my sin I do despise
So now I'm down before His throne praying on my knees
Asking Lord give me grace please
I don't wanna be falling
So I gotta face this but I know there's nothing that He can't fix
(I don't wanna be falling)
Looking to the cross where they placed Him
Cause I know His grace is amazing
(I don't wanna be falling)
He's covered all my sin
It's gone never to be seen again
So Your calling
Calling [x3]
Verse 1:
Good evening brethren, let's go a special direction
Look back, let's meet a young'n that was born in 87
His parents was so happy, rejoicing at they new blessing
He breathes life, at the same time death without a question
His parents gazed in his eyes, adoring him as he hollers
He got his eyes from his mama, he got his nose from his father
It's crazy how this baby, is so precious but I'm saddened
He got his name from grandfather, his depravity from Adam
That's how it goes and hey look as he grows
You can see he's so blind, his eyes seem as they closed
He's so weak and it shows, he can't keep from what He knows
Is wrong, he knows it's bad but dag he wants it though
And all throughout his years, he looks good to his peers
And his parents, and his self but if we could only peer
On the inside, we'd see that from the start it was dark
Until a Savior stepped in and gave Him a new heart, eyes opened!
Hook:
I know I once was blind, Oh Lord but now I see
You sent your Son from above to come and rescue me
He's the light of the world, maker of you and me
His Spirit shines so bright for all of us to see
Now that my vision's clear, Oh Lord we sing your praise
And pray that those in the world would turn and seek your face
Father we thank you for eyes to see so we can know you and love you forever
So that we can love you forever (2X)
Verse 2:
Yeah I was blinded in the past, like my mind was in the trash
Incapable of doing good or even finding him the task
Was beyond what I could grasp, my righteousness is rags
So He had to do all the work, by His design you do the math
The math, who get's the glory, hey who get's the praise?
Predestined, I was elected, resurrected from the grave
Plus His loved was never based on my past or present state
On anything that I obtained I was a mess but blessed with grace
By grace, I'm in love with Him
He gave me something within
He doesn't love me cause of me nope He loves me because of Him
No He didn't have to save and raise me when I was dead
But He dragged me out the morgue, now the praise of His name is spread
He died for all He would save, it's crazy the Savior bled
Erasing taking my dread, and gave me some grace instead
The kind I wouldn't resist, I came praise be to Him
And I'm confident if I'm in Him Ima make it to the end with eyes open
Hook
Now that my eyes is open, gotta keep that Bible open
Not just so that I can quote Him, I'm hopin that I'll behold Him
Until I lay in the grave, I'm praying I'll stay in motion
Gazing with eyes of faith He gave me baby, I'm focused
I'm praying all through my 20's I'll see Him in 20/20
Looking at Him till I look like Him almost like His twin He's
So merciful, His Word is so packed I'm telling many
Listen
Now I'dn heard a lota he say she say in my life in time
And the days keep rollin, no replay I wanna be sure to live it right
Cause I want that (want that) need that (need that)
And if it's real homie, I can't believe that
So if you help me find which way should I go with my life
My homie said you gotta live for the moment
On this earth you never know how long you on it
Gotta get a goal you don't wanna say you blown it
(Don it?) Seem like you should get it if you want it
My other homie said life is a vapour
A breath, better not waste it tryna chase paper
Cancer, cash and your slacks in the grave ya
Done for can't no body save ya, thank ya
My homie said life's a game you gotta play right
No script, write your own story like a playwright
It's no fate right? You just gotta face life
Give or take never make the same mistake twice
I heard the sayin life's a gift you gotta use well
Choose well, cause we seen a lotta dudes fail
True but when you do turn get a new trail
The old juice fail drink from a new well
Now I'dn heard a lota he say she say in my life in time
And the days keep rollin, no replay I wanna be sure to live it right
Cause I want that (want that) need that (need that)
And if it's real homie, I can't believe that
So if you help me find which way should I go with my life
My homie said life sucks then it's over
It's so rough so you gotta roll with a toaster
Silver spoon, no sir, mob like soldiers
Tight but you can't make so what, hold up
My other homie said life can be stiff man
It's bland, till you gotta hope that can withstand
It's grand if you gotcha eyes on the big plan
Keep watch don't let it take you out like a hitman
My homie said you gotta look for that great stuff
Can't just live ordinary for the Saviour
God wants to bless me, I should step my faith up
He loves me enough that He'll keep me from that pain, bruh
My other homie said God wants to bless you
And yes you should call upon His name for your rescue
He'll give you all you need, here's the Son He accepts you
You might need tests through trials to correct you
Now I'dn heard a lota he say she say in my life in time
And the days keep rollin, no replay I wanna be sure to live it right
Cause I want that (want that) need that (need that)
And if it's real homie, I can't believe that
So if you help me find which way should I go with my life
Now should I follow what you say, or should I come up with my own way
What you say they tell me, I'm lookin for advice man that will never fail
I got questions, so confused now, hopin you don't let me down
If only there was somebody who had it all figured out
Yea that would give me strength no doubt
Look man my Lord said that He made life
Night to the day light, from the same Christ
Lose your life for His sake, and you save life
Birth don't mean nothing if it ain't twice (twice)
My Lord said He came this earth so He gave life
Can't quite aim high enough to match His great life
Man we ain't right, turn to His great might
Life is eternal through faith right? Right
Now I'dn heard a lota he say she say in my life in time
And the days keep rollin, no replay I wanna be sure to live it right
Cause I want that (want that) need that (need that)
And if it's real homie, I can't believe that
Hook: First lets spit the truth/ Then pray the spirit moves
Let's serve Him in our youth/ We gotta let em know
Let's tell em they missin Him and that they sick in sin
Get they attention then/ We gotta let em know
Hey let's come and bring the word of the one that runs this thing
We young and unashamed/ We gotta let em know
Let's represent the king/ Let's help 'em miss the flames
Since they think this a game/ We gotta let em know
Verse 1:
Hey Anywhere that we go/ We gotta let them boys know
Why we speak, why we flow/ What we got all this joy for?
Who we makin noise for?/ Dog it's a automatic answer
All believers gotta stand up/ From Dallas down to Atlanta
Jehovah Nissi the banner/ Who saved us from Satan's slander
Get yo hands up/ He's comin hear all us holla Hosanna
We all will follow commandments/ In honor to God we stand with
His word/ A new brand of folks tryna follow his standards
We could be around some thugs/ All packin all hostile
We still Christian, we aint trippin/ Run up on em with the gospel
We could be up in the mall/ But we aint tryna ball
We tryna tell em only Christ can cure the sickness of the fall
We Christians standin tall/ We listen to His call
We love Him so much that we celebratin Christmas in the fall
So it aint no thing/ We aint scared to say
That we gon share our faith/ Yeah we gon let em know
Hook
Verse 2: So if you saved and taken out of your sin
Then you've received the Holy Spirits power within
Now you can read the bible and see how He can send
Some girls and guys alive in Christ to tell all about Him
But now you gotta learn the facts so you can tell other guys
How we don't deserve jack but Christ said He'd come and die
Rose back up in the sky/ We some heathens its true
But we don't never have to die if we believe in this dude
We can spread it where you live/ We can mess with them first
But after we done with them we hit the rest of the earth
It aint the best of your works/ The thing to save you is Jesus
We tryna let His word spread like contagious diseases
He saves who He pleases and He uses us
All His saints, His believers to move this stuff
So we gon let Him use us/ Tell em what the truth does
And we gon show some dudes love/ Yeah we gon let em know
Hook
Verse 3: I'm tryna hit em with the truth/ So they can get a better glimpse
The remotest part too/ We tryna hit every inch
It's the gospel/ Not only does it make better sense
But the only way to Heaven's through the one that's Heaven sent
Jesus Christ/ And we wont stop dude/ Until He got you
Not just the burbs but the hoods and the blocks too
Its no qualifications/ They can be part of the flock too
All they need is faith/ Call on His name is all they gotta do
But how can they call on Him if they don't believe
And tell me how can they believe if they don't hear nobody preach
We aint gotta do much/ God's truth is complete
Check Romans 10:15/ We got some beautiful feet
He's comin back/ If they don't know He died at the cross
They gettin left behind like conerbacks on Moss
So we feel a strong burden/ To tell em what the Word did
To save us from the furnace/ We GOTTA let em know
Yea, Yea
You know the plight of us
All the pains and the strains that this life covers
Things never go right, it's the gripe of us
It's like life came and took all the life from us, from us
Was supposed to go this way, hearts cold from coast to coast this days
Full of hope and nope it's gone, this grave
We need light and life to come invade
This cold world ain't nice to us
We so blind like the sights took our sight from us
I know you heard it more than once kinda like stutters
But this world needs help, all the likes of us, of us
What a lonely road is paved, with some broken souls that (groan midways)
On our domes we long to go get away, we can't go it alone come on invade
In this broken world we wanna find a way,
Cause it all went wrong, tell me who can take it away
Invade our world (come and invade our world)
Invade our world (come and invade our world)
You know the place where we placed at
It's like loves been erased they replaced that
There's no food in the crib where they plates at
The kid got shot in the place where he plays at
Jay said this can't be life, I'm lookin at the world like this can't be
right
We lookin for the light but we can't be night
We lookin for our health but we can't see right (see right)
Comin y'all we gotta face facts
His years go tears roll down hhis face?
When he had a lot of hope it would fade black
Now he cold and he ain't really fazed at anything
Anything his face seems light, cause his moneys out like they made three
strikes
Needs something to come down invade these nights
A real life Hero need that'll make things right
In this broken world we wanna find a way
Cause it all went wrong, tell me who can take it away
Invade our world (come and invade our world)
Invade our world (come and invade our world)
I know of some folks thinkin, this dude trippin what he drinkin
What kinda little dream he chasin, he gonna spend his whole life waitin
(I'm waitin)
For someone to come down to change this song, but not just me man creation
groans
We are waitin for someone to erase this wrong
The Kingdom is here the invasions on
In this broken world we wanna find a way
Cause it all went wrong, tell me who can take it away
Invade our world (come and invade our world)
Invade our world (come and invade our world)
Come and invade our world
Come and invade our world
Come and invade our world
Hey, open them ears up bro we bout to put you on
To something special, to bless you I hope it's hitting home
I know you skeptical bet you just tryna flip the song
You used to different spitting bout women and living wrong
But what you know about the Lord? We tryna see Him clear
How to appease Him and please Him, how can we keep Him near
How can we know Him, behold Him, and show Him we sincere
Is he opposed to you smokin, bonin, and drinkin beer?
I'm hoping we prepared, we bout a take a trip
I'll point you to the living water homie take a sip
Go to the pool of Siloam go on and take a dip
Come back with vision that's given by Him, who makes a switch
Though it would it cost Him, HIs enemies would cross Him
He called, and was dropping that knowledge like books falling
From Dallas to New Orleans, Philly to every city
Our vision is looking blurred we gotta see 20/20
Got ears but don't hear, eyes but don't see
Our God we don't fear, these rhymes are so we
Can peak off into the mind of God, He's holy
Our lives are so weak, but God is so He
Yeah He's perfect and flawless, He stands as the standard
His stance is grand, understand that He stands up
Always upright, we got a chance since the ransom
He paid at the cross, now let's find us some answers
What kind of God, would take some dudes and hand em
Eternal life for free, through the grace that He grants them?
By faith, we been changed, used to roll as His foes
But He rose and He chose, now we clothed in His clothes
It's kinda crazy, we all had ambitions of getting dough
He changed our character like an actor who's switching roles
This is to testify bout the God that we living for
Oh Lord, I'm so amazed when I dig up in Your Scripture
Focused and trying to get You, hoping to get a picture
Of who You are, true You are, Holy hoping I miss You
When I get away and I miss a day spending it with You
That's foolish, I hope to know You and be a student
And learn Your Holy ways all my days with no excuses
Ooh its such a privilege to know the God that moves and
Soothes this wretched soul, it was cold but he renewed it
And when I look at the Psalms I just pause
Got me dropping my jaw, its clear You got 'em in awe
And we can see that they yearning for Your person
Panting after You, and their passion for You is burning
I'm trying to pursue You 'cause You precious as a pearl
More than I did with them girls, I used to mess with in the world
Relentless in my pursuit, I surrender it all to You
And I pray You draw me closer in intimate time with You
There's a longing for Your love
Not just a moment, intimate touch
There's a longing for Your love
Not just a moment, intimate touch
It's way too many times, I'm staying off on the grind
In other areas and I bury You in my mind
Then my life starts getting terrible, scarier and I find
Myself trying to get near to You, but You was here all the time
But I was having my share of affairs with things You designed
Kind of like a bad marriage, it's scary it's like I'm blind
And I'm praying You'd help me, hold me, and make me focus
I know that when I'm lacking You I'm more than hopeless
Mold this wicked heart to delight in Your precious person
Fighting, confessing, searching for Christ and lessons for learning
It ain't even nothing good in me that I might show You
But I can see that eternal life's that I might know You
I want to know You, be close to the God who saved me
And raised me, I pray we can be much closer
And I- I can embrace the beautiful life that You gave me
I count it all loss, Lord, that I might know ya
There's a longing for Your love
Not just a moment, intimate touch
There's a longing for Your love
Not just a moment, intimate touch
I'm longing for Your endless love
The knowledge of who You are
The truth that lies within Your Word
Show my heart who You are
Truly I can't wait 'til this flesh is removed
And I'm forever with You, sin's mess is removed
Then there's nothing in the way, there's none better than You
To ignore that I'm more wack, this fella's a fool
You so mysterious, I read about You see I
I am so in awe of You, I'm all for You, You truly fly
The truth is I'm in love with You and hope that You see I
Would like to see You and I in U-N-I-T-Y
There's a longing for Your love
Not just a moment, intimate touch
There's a longing for Your love
Not just a moment, intimate touch
Lord bring me closely
Intimately
So to show me
Who You are
and to fill my cup, Lord
Lord bring me closely
Intimately
So to show me
Who You are
and to fill my cup, Lord
Just a lil bit more
I need a lil bit more
Na-na-na-na
Just a lil bit more
I need a lil bit more
Na-na-na-na
I need, I need more and more
Verse 1:
I still remember when I first started living this thing
And you gave me the grace to make the right decision to change
My whole lifestyle was flipped most thought the kid was insane
Even those close to me my homies wasn't feeling it mayne
But still I wanted some more, I wanted to know this infinite King
You restored my heart and your glory started to stick in my brain
I couldn't get enough of your scripture I was simply amazed
By Acts, Galatians, Revelation, 1 Corinthians, James
I couldn't fathom something would happen to make me stray away
I couldn't imagine leaving my Dad that took me from my playa ways
Who rescued me from the storm, all those gray and rainy days
The one with that amazing grace, the same one who gave me faith
But recently it seems to me that passion is fading
It's almost like I forgot my Holy Dad was amazing
And without noticing your Word, I started reading it less
Yeah I'm alive, but it feels like I'm just breathing to death
I'm Cryin' Out!
Hook:
I'm crying out 'cause I'm weak and unworthy
Lord Jesus it hurts me, I'm in need of your mercy
Would you please come and restore me
To the servant I used to be
When I was just seeking your glory and was content with you and me
I'm cryin out
(Repeat)
Verse 2:
After you snatched you up I saw that life without you wasn't life
You couldn't pay me a million bucks to go back to shunning Christ
I'd tell my boys the joy of living abundant life
Read ya sword seek the Lord I'd tell em to run to Christ
But my desires much less, it's clear that I am such a mess
My life crumbles now I stumble and I am deserving death
At first it was just not reading but now it's leading to sin
And its been so long I wonder if Ill see you again
And the sin makes it even harder for your grace change my heart up
Each breath I take is hard the separations getting farther
I'm scared to pray unto my father 'cause I feel unworthy
To seek His face I didn't bother, yeah it makes me wanna holler
Cause everything I've known seems to be fading away
This thing is crazy I pray that you'd erase it today
And I know cant just sit idle and wait for you to do it
But I don't know what do I'm crying as I'm going through it
I'm Cryin Out!
Hook
Verse 3:
Now its getting even worse cause my sin doesn't even hurt me as much
Why would I leave my first love I used to thirst for your touch
For your direction of my life I loved your glorious throne
I'd put myself in the back seat and seek your glory alone
But now because I love it less I'm becoming morally wrong
I may look the same to all the others but Lord you notice I'm gone
You know I long to come back I miss that peace I used to feel
When I'd reap pray unceasingly and read what you've revealed
But I'm not plus I got a minor depression that I'm hating
To learn a lesson now I'm waiting I'm starting to question my salvation
I'm nothing, I'm dirt I need something to work
So Ill try the only thing that does I gotta jump in ya Word
And maybe if I read Ill be able to recapture
The things that made fall in love with Jesus, King and Master
I know it'll be a struggle but I gotta fight hard
To delight in the Christ who saved me like lifeguards
I'm Cryin Out!
Verse 1:
Hey, you crazy if you think you can grasp
The eternal ruler who is first and is last
Reigns in the present, and He reigned in the past
Who is perfect and has none to learn in a class
I seen a lot of dudes I don' think they get it
Got a picture in our brain but the King can't fit it
We got a lil box but the King ain't in it
He's way too complex, don't get this thing twisted
I could learn bout Him who's on the throne
But like Badu He goes on and on/I could spit a million rhymes till the song is long
But still not have enough bars like a broken phone
To tell all about the God of Romans known
Through the scriptures that picture should blow your dome
He's amazing behold Him, appraise Him He's golden
Inexhaustible, I'm amazed just to know him
Hook:
Hey what you know about this God?
He's way too great homie, I can't grasp Him
Hey what you know about this God?
He's too complex my mind can't fathom
What you know about this God?
He's amazing behold Him appraise Him He's golden
Hey what you know about this God?
He's inexhaustible, I'm amazed just to know Him
Verse 2:
For instance I just can't get this HeIs one but eternally exists in three
That's crazy our minds can grip this we
Need to realize we men so our pictures weak
Just try to understand how he came as a man
But remained I Am, all things in His hand
Say what? The King was slain as the lamb
When He came to the land that He made with His hands
Say what? Just try to make your brain understand
He's so big man's like a grain in the sand
That picture's too big for a frame but my plan is to grow
I pray my picture of the King will expand
I could study forever and read all day
But still wouldn't understand the King all the way
I got a long way to go, but I'm pleased to say
I get to live my whole life just to seek His face
Hook
Verse 3:
Hey it's not enough words in my speech to proclaim His greatness
Not in the whole English language
To exhaust this King, His past is blameless
I won't stop reppin 'till His name is famous
Among all nations, He still prevails
Praise the Lord that He chose to reveal Himself
When He could have just chilled and concealed Himself
Praise the Lord that He chose to reveal Himself
Now we can share in enjoyment, see more and more
The glory, the beauty of the Lord of Lords
Through Creation, or Scripture's the door to more
Can't get it all on this Earth, there's more in store
When we get to eternity, it'll be better
We get to see more of the Lord forever
A million years later, the joy is the same
Seeing still more and exalting His name
Verse 1:
My girlfriend's name starts with an I
Shines bright like stars in the sky
Stays by my side, when it's dark she's the light
She befriends many, and we get lost in her eyes
Staring at her instead of watching our steps
Run to her when we wake without catching our breath
She's addicting, the truth: we're fiends
But we ain't sniffing glue, we're just glued to the screens
She rules us, see the proof when she rings
We'd probably take two of her over two human beings
Her sisters? Some bigger some smaller
We sync her with em daily to keep her in order
We get her when she drops even if we can't afford her
Ask me if I really need her? I be like, "sort of"
But when I seen her at the mall I had to court her
I keep her in accessories, ya boy do spoil her
I want her in my life, I'd do anything for her
Forget about a dime boy, she's more like a quarter
I'm with her all the time, it ain't nobody cooler
She's a lil jealous man and I don't wanna lose her
So instead of spending time with others
She only lets me talk when I talk through her
Hook
This is iLove
I love her so much I don't need nobody else
I try to put her down but can't help myself
Verse 2:
She's really affecting how my life goes
She controls me, I might go psycho
I can't think now, mental lipo
Weighty thoughts are pushed out by her light shows
Community's gotta take a backseat
I try to talk to others, but I'm feeling mad weak
There's always something I laugh at, something I can look up
She keeps me entertained, till I barely ever look up
And when I try to get up in the text
She's tapping on my shoulder to read another text
Look I thought she'd really be the best
I told her she a heavy ball and chain around my neck
She got mad like, "you got a better date?"
I had to man up, time to regulate
I told her if she ain't gon let me meditate
Then for my sake, we gotta separate
Don't wanna hurt her, I don't wanna abuse her
But she's only there for me to use her
Hey I came up in a crib where music played non-stop
From the night till the day we're in them same loud spots
Before I heard o' Nas and Jay I would say my pops
He used to play all my saints and marvin gaye up top
Some have to wait Isley brothers heard the way they rock
Earth Wind and fire man you can't say that they not hot
So I take from my dad more than the name I got
But my love for music I would gladly take my lot
I remember rockin out some mj always
Had me moon walkin in my socks in the halways
Playin tapes in my walkman all day
The good days lil will is what they call me
And everything I loved I had to try to do it
I tried to play some sports but I fell in love with music
Plus that love stayed and that love grew deeper
It wasn't goin' nowhere either
I love to hear the kick hit, love to hear the snare pop, love to hear them
hi-hats play
I love music much more than I can say, I love music I was just designed
that way
I love to hear the violin, love to hear the keystroke, love to hear trumpet
play
Thank God for music, ain't much more that I can say, thank God for music,
thank God for music
Eh, I discovered hip hop and I was never the same
I got my first CD still remember the name
Started to bump Jay-Z he was ahead of the game
Me and my boys bumped it all the time it's regular thangs
I remember middle school we used to write them rhymes
Shout out to K, Rock and Nick we used to write them lines
Was talkin foolishness I used to swipe dem dimes
I used to look back at mine like "I was tight this time"
I got serious about it tryna make that heat
Recordin in my room and Leak he used to make me beats
When times is hard, my first love had made things sweet
I had dreams of goin platinum tryna take things deep
But then a light came on, I changed my mind to anon
The trick was tryna find a way to take the whole game on
I saw that it was bigger than just tryna put my name on (why?)
Jesus is supreme and that's what I wanna display homes
I love to hear the kick hit, love to hear the snare pop, love to hear them
hi-hats play
I love music much more than I can say, I love music I was just designed
that way
I love to hear the violin, love to hear the keystroke, love to hear trumpet
play
Thank God for music, ain't much more that I can say, thank God for music,
thank God for music
Back in the day when I was young I went from rich 'n to poor
Fell in love with music poppin n breakin on floors
Figured I would bust some flows instead of breakin my bones
Thinkin like I moved the crowd in my mirrors at home
Within the cipher zone I found that I could hold my own
Had dreams of blazin up the joint like cheech and chong
I'm a be a rap star when I grow up
Light a match to my gods head I'm a blow up
If they don't recognize my skills joker so what
They don't know talent when they see it they don't know us
But I met the One who did His name was Jehovah
Took me off of death row made a no limit soldier
Still love music just as much as the next man
I just use it now to save jokers from they death jam
Theirs glories in the whistle blow,
Toe tap, hand clap, heart beat
You did your thing tip off my high hat
I love to hear the kick hit, love to hear the snare pop, love to hear them
hi-hats play
I love music much more than I can say, I love music I was just designed
that way
I love to hear the violin, love to hear the keystroke, love to hear trumpet
play
Thank God for music, ain't much more that I can say, thank God for music,
For me its about more than spitting silly gritty rhymes
Hitting blocks, or getting shot fifty times
God's about His glory, so I can't be about getting mines
By saying I committed crimes, just lying to get my shine
What a tragedy, that that's become the blueprint
Spitting bout they renegades, getting weight and move bricks
All trying to make dollars and new cents, what a nuisance
They call them true, but I'm call them flu- 'cause these dudes sick
And they contagious, each time that they throwing up
Flows that's more than overstuffed with motives of them blowing up
Hoping to get dough, hoping the right doors will open up
They focused on it so, they mouths run like motors bruh
But get a load of us, we flow with focus up
On Jehovah, we soldiers, hoping that folks will notice us
But with intentions of pointing them to great Lord
That's the reason why we make noise, and represent with great joy
Hook:
Yeah we came to spit, not for chains and chicks
But for the King of Kings we praise His name with this
And it's just one of many ways, nah we ain't slaves to this
Verse 2:
Turn on the radio, man I heard it a million times
They live it up, and fill they cup they feeling fine
They fond of killing, and be chilling with a million dimes
It's crazy can't see, but they think they vision's fine
And if they ain't blind then I'm crazy and dumb
And they must just got they shades on, 'cause they can't see the Son
But He gave us sight, made us light, the change has begun
From a life that's fast we got to dash like Stacy we done
With spitting bout the norm, homie yeah we had to switch it up
The old- We had to give it up to Christ, and started giving up
A life that messed our witness up, the mic- Only for lifting up
Christ who let them pin Him up, light of the world this is us
Now me and Phish, we be in this and use the music
His beats is sick, and me I spit, we use these tunes to
Give you truth, I spit in booths, I hope you tuned in
Cause this is truth, we living proof, of Jesus moving
Hook
Verse 3:
As you listen, I hope that you don't think this mission's mine
This joints for Him, I just point to Him and get behind
I hope it's so hot, your jaw drops and you hit rewind
But the message is reason I'd be grieved if you missed a line
Yeah we love hip hop, and we part of the culture
But we ain't just trying to give props, or get it lots of exposure
All things only exist so they give props to Jehovah
Even this, don't be behind the times like big clocks that slowed up
Hold up, homie I ain't just trying to make the crowd move
I found truth, and now I'm trying to pass it to the sound dudes
Around me, around you, and to try to make it sound cool
I keep my ear to the streets like my face was on the ground too
We keep it loud too, cause even these music forms
Are only for His name man, hey that's why we use it for Him
And some cats will hate though they can't deny the beat is hot
Verse 1:
I wasn't never the type that's tryna kill folks
Nothing too bad maybe dabbled in a lil smoke
A lil lust, but wasn't never seen as a bad dude
Was livin for myself dreamed of wealth and makin cash move
Was told of a savior who raised named Jesus
That paid full of grace and I did believe it
They told me He would hold me and I was blessed wit Christ
I'm like, "I get to go to Heaven? Man I'm set for life."
But after that, I was just ya average Sunday Christian
Up in church wit my bible, back Monday sinning
Up in the school yard trying hard to blend in
Was acting dead as a carcass and far from livin
I was all up in the world, I was just like the rest of them
Called myself a Christian, but would sin with the best of them
I wouldn't share my faith or read my Word its crazy
I was a immature believer, a spiritual baby
Hook:
We gotta grow, we can't stay in the same place
We gotta grow, we gotta be seeking His face
We gotta grow, so if you saved and you've been pardoned
We gotta grow, you ain't done you just getting started
(Repeat)
Verse 2:
I was my own guide, would never dive in His truth
But didn't realize that I was set aside for His use
So I'd just live for what I thought was my best interest
Around nonbelievers you couldn't tell the difference
Wasn't a thug, nah I ain't got no horror story
But was living for myself not the Lord and His glory
My confession: I didn't seek my Dad's perfection
Was going down the wrong road like I had bad directions
Until He showed my not imitating the Christ
And living for me I was truly wasting my life
And that Christ died so I could have relationship
But by my actions I refused to take this gift
Until He made a switch and now I want some more of Him daily
By His grace I'm growing and have matured from a baby
I'm so grateful that I've been torn from sin
And day by day He's making me more like Him
Hook
Verse 3:
So for my believers, I just wanna encourage yall
To draw closer to the Lord I know you heard His call
Even if you ain't smoking or shooting at domes
If you don't do it all for His glory, you doing it wrong
Heaven ain't the only reason we got saved
If we don't get to know Jesus then we got played
Plus we gotta change, He said He'd change us all
And that faith without fruit, that ain't faith at all
Sanctification, check Romans 6
We 'posed to switch, die to sin and grow in holiness
All my brothers and sister I know this walk is tough
But even if you young just getting saved is not enough
We gotta talk to Him, read who the Lord in the skies is
The reason we breathe is to enjoy and glorify Him
I'm grateful the Father is changing ya boy
And getting closer to Him is an unexplainable joy
VERSE 1
The gift of God has given got me so amazed
I get better than if earned like I'm overpaid
I ain't deserve it at all homie I know it's grace
But God gave me a wife to hold for all my days
She got me more than dazed
Babe, your more than antidote to lonely days
You're my partner, you got my back with no delays
You don't just hold me down, you help me behold his ways
We seek His holy face though the surface is only grazed
Babe, I never thought that I would be the type
To choose and chill with my wife over trying to sleep at night
But, we kick it real hard, you never leaving right?
Well good, cause I love the ways that we alike
I found a good thing, praise God for wedding bells
This marriage is a picture of the story heaven tells
That means this oneness can't be severed, well very well
By God's grace I married well. I Found a good thing.
CHORUS
You'll always be my love (oh my my my)
You'll always be my love (my oh my)
I love you, I'll never leave, I want it to be
Always you and only you, I've found a good thing.
VERSE 2
They say that boy insane. He gone he lost his brain
He too zealous, he's just trying to go against the grain
He's got his whole life ahead of him, so this is strange
But they don't get that getting other chicks just isn't gain
And marriage is a pain, in fact it's love and joy.
God's plan for man and woman they wanna destroy
By acting like it's prison, avoid it cause it's hard
Look honestly if it don't hurt than you ain't loving hard
Look at Jesus on the cross he got a ton of scars
Laid his life down for his bride cause his love is large
My Lord he set the bar high, and I'm falling short
But I'll be standing with my Savior when I'm called in court
So please forgive me baby when I don't love you right
You're so patient with me girl because He's in your sights.
So lets take on the world, lets love em hand in hand
Bye bye to boyish ways, hello to family man.
CHORUS
You'll always be my love oh my my my
You'll always be my love my oh my
I love you, I'll never leave, I want it to be
Always you and only you, I've found a good thing.
VERSE 3
We prayed our wildest dreams his will be done we said.
So lets be praying bracing ourselves for what comes ahead.
We pleaded with the Lord that he would give a child
And he graciously gave, though it took a while.
That is a precious little soul. One who lives and moves.
Never forget the way you smile when you broke the news
And now your belly's growing, baby your skin is glowing
I already love him I can't wait to get to know him.
Till then I'm praying for him, that Jesus would sustain
Our little baby protect him so his life remains.
Through all the joys and pains, you know your husbands here
We'll run this race together. Let's get this one thing clear
I'll never leave your side, I wasn't playing with you
When I wrote them vows, baby girl I'm staying with you
And there ain't nothing that can separate us in this life
Can't nothing ever separate us from the love of Christ
BRIDGE
For ever ever ever
The Lord gon be with us for ever ever ever
So girl I ain't gon leave you ever ever ever
The Lord gon be with us for ever forever ever
So girl I ain't gon leave you ever ever ever
The Lord gon be with us for ever ever ever
So girl I ain't gon leave you ever ever ever
The Lord gon be with us for ever ever ever
Ever ever
You'll always be my love oh my my my
You'll always be my love my oh my
I love I'll never leave I want it to be
None of them knew it He would be betrayed by Judas
One of the chosen the few in His intimate group of
Close friends who professed love for Him to no end
They were sad they knew life without Him would be so grim
So Him and some of the disciples went to the garden of Gethsemane
He told them to keep a lookout while he prayed with all his energy
But instead of watchin' the King
Each time He came back they had fallen asleep
But the hour has come, men proceeding armed with swords
The disciples didn't want to let him hard the Lord
But Christ was aware that his Father's will was in this
Betrayed by Judas Iscariot sealed with a kiss
They took Him away, Judas couldn't look at His face
Think about what Jesus went through, look at His grace
Put on an unfair trial it goes further though
They could have set Him free, but they let a murderer go
I heard it was so barbaric how they beat him and mocked Him
Man that's God in the flesh, He could have easily stopped Him
But He thought about us and not Him, He was crucified
That's the most painful death, He was bruised, then died
Joseph wrapped Him in linen and placed
Jesus Christ to lay, put Him in a grave
They closed to tomb, even put a stone in the way
But when the angels came back the stone had rolled away
He rose from the grave, it's great, He's rare with his grace
Redemption for Adam's sin and all who will inherit his ways
We just got to believe and we'll be freed today
Hook:
The bad news, we were born in sin
The good news we can be born again

Verse 2:
So the world went on, sinnin' and all
God even flooded it once to get rid of it all
Time and time again all men would just fall
So God the Son decided to come in the midst of it all
The Word became flesh to suppress our danger
He emerged from a virgin that would rest in a manger
An angel had came to say that she was highly favored
She became the mother of the one that became the savior
But a little bit before that amazing day
He called on John the Baptist to make the way
And when John saw Christ comin he told the men and the girls
"Behold the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world"
He knew that Christ had come for our survival
Soon after He would go to call his disciples
He would guide them, advise them to live by the bible
They were privileged enough to get to walk beside Him
And they preached to others as He taught them the code
They always rolled together like Tommy and Cole
They were all nice guys, spiritual cats
And they even got to witness His miracle acts
He fed thousands when they didn't have enough bread
He healed blind, even raised Lazarus from the dead
But one day He called them all to meet in a room
And he sadly told them He'd be leavin' them soon
He said He'd be betrayed by one of these in the room
But didn't say He would die and raise in three from the tomb
Or that He'd be the one to clean us like a broom
Well let me tell you how it started in the garden of eden
With sweet Adam and Eve the first hearts beatin'
God made them in his image 'till they ate from the tree and...
Since then all men have been born as heathens We have a sickness like people who can't beat deseases
It's called sin it deserves the eternal heat
He gave us life and we can keep it I'll tell you the reason
But first lets get back to the massacre at Eden
The very first time man was tricked by Satan
On that date and that day instantly changed our fate
It was undoubtedly man's darkest hour
But Eve didn't have a chance she didn't know his power
We probably would have failed too if the choice was ours
It's a dilemma that man alone can't get out of
'Cause our relationship with the holy God is sour
We all fall short of him like He's tall as towers
Instead staying with the one with the awesome power
We steady chasing girls like Austin Powers
We're all left out in the cold in a world that's crowded
With skeptics and doubters who want to do without Him
We got a problem, We need something to solve it now 'cause
We're separated from the father and we're lost without Him
We got a problem, We need something to solve it now 'cause
We're seperated from the father and we're lost without Him, that's...
Hook:
The bad news, we were born in sin

Verse 1:
You probably wanna hear me spit bout cash
Bout my chicks and the clips I'ma whip out fast
Bout my whips, what I sip in a crystal glass
You love this which makes the crucifix sounds bad
But I don't trip, I let my light shine inside
I work for Him everyday like a nine to five
I'm gon ride wit Christ, man to crime I died
And for Him I get busy like my line was tied
You probably wanna hear drugs and thugs
Fun with bub and ya boy looking for love in clubs
But nope! I already found some love above
And we don't have to get smashed cause the Son was crushed
You just might wanna hear about some major dough
If that's the case move on, I preach the Savior bro
I don't flow to boast of toting heat and pistols
But to reach you and lead you to read epistles
Hook:
You might them folks that spit bout smoke and the clip they tote
But we gon give you that truth
Even though some bored when we talk about the Lord, we some soldiers at war
We gon give you that truth
You might want that cute tees and Timbaland boots 22's and coupes
But we gon give you that truth
We ain't talking bout change we liftin up His name, to die is gain
We gon give you that truth
Verse 2:
How do you like your hip hop music?
Some like it holy, some like it polluted
Some like a clique like the 116
That'll spit even if they don't make one cent
I refuse to lie like most of these cats
That do influence lives when they boast in they raps
And make dudes choose lives where they toting the gats
But Jehovah's where my hopes in I focus on that
No sir, we don't rhyme bout guns and knives
We look to Christ so we got the Son in our eyes
So we can't but spit bout Christ
Most hearts are cold that's probably why they spit bout ice
This our life, submitting to the Spirit inside us
We like some urban Spurgeons and lyrical Pipers
We ain't got no songs spitting game to no girls
But we preach da truth "Welcome to our world"
Hook
Verse 3:
They like, "Where the guns at dawg, where the weed at?"
We like, "Kill that homeboy, we don't need that"
Forget about the dough, 44's, and gats
We been saved by the blood we gon boast in that
And point folks to the Father, I hope they hear me flow
And He brings them out of the grave like the thriller video
Really bro I hope He uses the truth I spit
And I don't care if I don't never get a Billboard hit We know the world might boo our tracks
And would rather us pack it up and move on back
But until I die, for Christ, yeah ya dude gon rap
And glorify Him with my life, spit truth on tracks
I bring Christ to blocks, I spit Christ in spots
But girls I don't wanna see you drop it like its hot
Yeah we products of the city life, we just a different type
And every time we touch the mic bro we spittin Christ
Yeah, if they only knew man.
Don't worry about who I am man.
Cause I ain't nothing but a tool for God's glory.
You know what I'm saying.
I'm not trying to get cash, this task
Hate to make our hits last (the world)
??? the beats so fast
Your boy got whiplash
We got different motives/ I ain't trying to get the dough/ it's switched and now we spitting flows/ and living just to lift Jehovah/
Forget my name and my face/ I ain't just an entertainer / we was made for the Savior/ to glorify His name bruh
So when we walk out we Walk it Out/ with crosses on our back/ and we live for the One we talk about/ and He taught us how to act bruh
We aint here for our pleasure/ we aint here to have fun/but to help them see our God better/ we aint trying to stack funds
I aint telling fairytales/aint just telling my story/cause my life aint worth nothing/if it aint giving God glory
So I aint got no songs where I repeat my name/ in every single song you're hearing Jesus reigns
No I aint much of nothing/ nothing but a sinner bro/ by grace I'm more/ I praise the Lord/ the only thing worth living for.
Chorus
Ay, I aint living for myself
No it aint about me
Anything the Lord do
He can't do without me
So give him glory (with your beats)
Give him glory (with your verses)
Give him glory (in the streets)
Give Him glory (in your churches)
We tryna lift His name up
We don't want you praising us
Putting Christ front and center
And we laying in the cut
So give him glory (with your beats)
Give him glory (with your verses)
Give him glory (in the streets)
Give Him glory (in your churches)
2nd Verses
When I eat, sleep, hit the streets/its only for His glory man/Plus I can grow each time I read/ He put it all before me man
Naw I aint gotta wonder how to please him with my life/ its in the Bible man I can model what I see up in the Christ
God came in the flesh/he's the best/ I can mock his living
And it was clear while he was here He was all about His Father's business
He wasn't worried about himself/ he was humble as a mug
He taught the folks how to act and was showing others love
We aint trying to promote self, naw
We giving cats the Bible
We aint trying to make dough/we trying to make disciples
Each time we learn we pass it on to a group of faithful men/we read it back/ we teach the cats/ we pray they take it in
And when we make decisions/each time we have to base them/ on how the Lord can get His glory/ out the situation
It says in Proverbs ???/ His glory is our purpose/ so if we living for ourselves/ our life is truly worthless
Chorus
Trip Lee-
So give him glory (with your beats)
Give him glory (with your verses)
Give him glory (in the streets)
Give Him glory (in your churches
So give Him glory every day man
Give Him glory in every way man
Don't start living for yourself homie
Don't get led astray
We will not bow down, we will not blend in
We proud to stand out, we will not give in (oh)
'Cause we don't wanna follow tha crowd
Nah I said w'ain't tryna follow tha crowd
W'ain't friends with the world 'cause this land is damned
Plus sin and the world go hand in hand (oh)
So we don't wanna follow tha crowd
Nah I said w'ain't tryna follow tha crowd
Verse 1:
We know the world ain't tryna live for Christ
They missin Christ, content with they sinful life
Filled with pride, the truth of the fact they blind
They can't get with God, He just in the back of they mind
Straight livin' for themselves, they don't know the Lords better
We wanna please Him but they livin' for they own pleasure
Whatever feels good, man that's what they do
And they don't wanna know God right now, they comfortable
But as believers we should be strivin' for different stuff
Not them princess cuts, but tryna lift Him up
We got a passion for His glory, know right from wrong
Step in the room, it's like they turned a light switch on
They try to pull us back to they side
Like, "What happened to you?" I just tell 'em the old me died
And now that I'm alive, I gotta live in His ways
Romans 8:13, we puttin' sin in it's grave
Hook
Hey bro this ain't the Boyz in the Hood
Nah the 116 bring joy to ya hood
Make noise for the good news of Jesus Christ
We been freed and refuse not to be a light
Plus we know a lot of folks gon' tell us
If we choke off the smoke we gon' feel a lot better
But we pass on the herb, go grab for the word
We get stronger the faster we learn
When them cats wanna pass the drank
We like "Nah dog," we don't even have to think
If a girl walk by and they like, "Look at that!"
We keep our eyes straight ahead we ain't lookin' back
They try to pressure us back to the old ways
No way, we ain't goin' back to them old days
So when they ask, "You wanna do that playa?"
All I gotta say is, "Nah I don't do that there!"
Hook
We ain't in the club startin' stuff
Temptin' ourselves, nah we don't hit them parties up
'Cause if Christ ain't there, I don't wanna go either
My focus ain't girls, I just wanna know Jesus
Plus all they play is that same 'ol, same 'ol
Drop it down, range rove, 24's, bank rolls
And that's the opposite of our main goals
My God is it, nobody cares if my wrist ain't cold
They try to persuade us to give this up
Like, "This ain't crunk, forget about that Christian stuff"
But dog they don't understand, since He fixed us up
On the inside, since we died, this IS us
We stand out, it's not a chance you can mix us up
If you hearin' this song I hope you listen up
We grateful to be a light set apart from dark
Look at dat, what you lookin at
Look at dat, what you lookin at
Look at dat, what you lookin at
In a culture that is crazy, in a world that is fallen
It's hard tryna live this thang according to Your callin
Every time steppin at my heart it's steady prowlin
Desires wagin war back n forth like they brawlin
Yea man hold up, I'm hopin when you see me
That you catch me watchin what I'm watchin it ain't easy
My heart it wants to see joy, but there's too many decoys
And I don't wanna end up in a trap like a dboy
Can't be all relaxed, there ain't no time for getting lazy
Time for us to act cause the times are getting crazy
So I wrote an agreement and I made my eyes sign it
I won't look on a woman with no lust no undenyin' it
Look at dat, what you lookin at
Oooo she lookin good nah man I ain't lookin back
I'm watchin what I'm watchin, and yea this thang hard
Better watchin what I'm watchin we gotta be on guard
Look at dat, what you lookin at
Oooo she lookin good nah man I ain't lookin back
I'm watchin what I'm watchin, and yea this thang hard
Better watchin what I'm watchin we gotta be on guard
Now if I listen to the radio
Then I would have to split open the swisha and fill it with green vine
And if I listen to the TV then you can catch me chasin plenty chicks cause
homie they fine
But I DDT my mind put my flesh in the figure four
Yea sometimes I fall but this right here ain't gon kill me folk
Cause if I had to be a blind amputee, I guarantee my Father here is purging
me of all my impurity
Bang on em ba-bbang on go hard Father rain on em ra-rrain on em show you
Cause every time I slow up, that's when my Father show up
Make make ways of escape then I'm right back scrappin like what up
Tell my TV to shutup what you sellin I don't want it
Hide that Word inside my heart, Ron Artest go & guard it no
I don't want your goodies baby you can keep your cookies lady
I know they got M&MS; but this road I'm on is slim and shady
Look at dat, what you lookin at
Oooo she lookin good nah man I ain't lookin back
I'm watchin what I'm watchin, and yea this thang hard
Better watchin what I'm watchin we gotta be on guard
Look at dat, what you lookin at
Oooo she lookin good nah man I ain't lookin back
I'm watchin what I'm watchin, and yea this thang hard
Better watchin what I'm watchin we gotta be on guard
With every single glance man my sin tries to kill me
So I ain't givin in all my brothers gotta feel me
I'm free from my slavery you know that ain't the real me
I belong to my God and I can't let no lust steal me
There's nothing I can gain the sister shouldn't move me
Cause my God is holy the epitome of beauty
Bought me with a price and I'm prayin He would rule me
My eyes belong to Him He's my King and Lord truly
As men who trust Jesus, we can't be cool with all dat
So when my eyes start to trip, I tell em boys to fall back
So if you see me look away don't be surprised
Since I'm in love with my God, I got some covenant eyes
Look at dat, what you lookin at
Oooo she lookin good nah man I ain't lookin back
I'm watchin what I'm watchin, and yea this thang hard
Better watchin what I'm watchin we gotta be on guard
Look at dat, what you lookin at
Oooo she lookin good nah man I ain't lookin back
I'm watchin what I'm watchin, and yea this thang hard
Set the scene, in the beginning was God
He was holy, glorious and He was wise
If anyone tries, to question His power
Tell them cowards, you really don't buy it
He's really so fly, He don't need no assistance
He made everything spoke it into existence
Creation listened, with no resistance
What kinda powerful God is this?
I'm tripping sometimes I stop and just gaze
I'm so amazed that He made this in 6 days
Made land, made man, but man made a mistake
Men ate fruit now we all in a sin state
But don't think He's no match for the serpent He
Smashes His adversaries, laughs at adversity
They plan, they scam, but they ain't got a good fate
The seed of the woman will smash on the serpent's seed
Time goes, guys grow mo and mo sin filled
God grows, tired though, He's hatred for their sin builds
Because they lacked great faith and love
God showed that He reigned with a flood
He showed His hatred for sin that sits in mens hearts
And the grace He extends to men on His ark
He's amazing man, His great works are a testimony to His person
And I'm so blessed He knows me

Come close, tell me what do you see?
It's God and that's something to see
You wanna know who the boss is?
Flip through His narrative, switch through His character
Come close, tell me what do you see?
It's God and that's something to see
You wanna know who the boss is?
Take a look at His works you can see ID

Verse 3 - Sho Baraka:
Let the Gospels introduce you to the Lamb and the light
In Revelation He returns as the Lion with the might
He runs the urban jungle crushed my burden to the law
Took a bite out of sin/ Got death in His claw
He demonstrates his power over death, sickness
Over Nature, over evil over time and distance
All power is in his hand, when they thought he was ruined
But he rose from the grave like "How you doing"
He established the church and working hard like adrenaline
But Satan and the world they want to pump us with Ritalin
Gotta keep running whether in your bapes or timberland
Perseverance of the saints, baby there is no giving in
Now the Holy Spirit provides gifts for the church
So we can build one another and complete his works
What does this say about Jehovah, He so consistent
Man falls man repents man is freed from his prison
All by His power, through His mercy and His grace
So man will stop worshiping self and seek his face
We live the great commandment then do the great commission
Verse 1 - Trip Lee:
Lord, I'd like to start by saying I can hate where I'm at
When this life is hard and situations take me aback
The fight is hard and I can hardly face it in fact
In life it's hard to get up like a bar with weights that's attached
It really seems the situations that I'm facing is wack
I been awakened but now I'm feeling forsaken and trapped
With no hope and I'm broken open for Satan to trap
I been bothered since You Father put this weight on my back
So please erase it's wack, cause when this pain it attacks
My weakness is at it's peak and I'm feeling strained and I lack
The trust in You I struggle through the ways that I should come to You
Lord, what am I gonna do? It's true this pain it distracts
But I see my only hope when my backs on the ropes
Is in You so I read through the facts that You wrote
The pain may fade away, but if that's my only hope
Then You don't get the glory alone not even close
Hook:
Lord, it may get better but it may not
So when I pray God, I pray I
Would trust You whether or not the pain stops
So when the the pain falls, coming down like rain drops
I just gotta cling to You
Verse 2 - shai linne:
Heavenly Father, in Your Word You say we can build
Because of Jesus and the blood that He graciously spilled
Lord, I thank You for real, cause my Dad's always there
I can cast all my cares plus the weight that I feel
My situation is ill, I ain't asking to be making a mill
But is all my money for paying my bills?
It gets crazier still, my soul's on dangerous hills
A target for the world, flesh, and Satan aiming to kill
While the wicked who be hating your will
Sit by the lake as they chill, taking in sensational thrills
Lord, Your Son I admire, He's the one I desire
I'll run through the fire if You say it's Your will
But at times it's hard to hear You, the world doesn't fear You
Lord, give me a clear view Your face is concealed
Help me to be patient until Your grace is revealed
And in the mean time, between time, be praising You still

Verse 3 - Trip Lee:
Lord, You know I'm hoping that my situation will switch
That You'll show me You're amazing by erasing it quick
But I've noticed that my hope was in You changing it quick
Instead of knowing You're enough Lord I was chasing Your gifts
But then I opened up Your text and looked at David and them
Their situations was grim, but it ain't change them within
They prayed You'd take it away but sought Your face in the end
And found comfort in Your justice and the grace You extend
So in this life full of strife if my days get grayer
I'm content with the fact that You'll stay my Savior
No change in my King, man, it ain't no greater
Comfort than what's found in You that's so major
So in this life full of strife if my days get grayer
I'm content with the fact that You'll stay my Savior
No change in my King, man, it ain't no greater
Comfort than what's found in You that's so major
So in this life full of strife if my days get grayer
I'm content with the fact that You'll stay my Savior
No change in my King, man, it ain't no greater
