Kill Bill Collectors God camouflaged in these bars like cephalopods But maybe not, 'cause we obviously reppin' the cause To see the Gospel in everything We checkin' the stars Even creation in itself testifies there's a God Now wait, hey what's that God's name? It's Yeshua the Christ, the Living Water, One with the Father, the Way. In His ocean, man, we're coastin' and floatin' on one name Inviting you to come to wade, Lebron James. In that Christ, we will unite like UK Shining light bright in dark nights, no Bruce Wayne Rep the West like a sunset, Flows like a sun dress Rose after He died for what I hadn't done yet. Cast lots for His clothes, Clothed in a plum vest, Drove thorns through his dome, Blood to the Sons chest. Who is the King of Glory? One guess, The Sabbath where the heathens and savages find rest. Verse 2 Now we ain't pushin' no foreign whips, No AMGs We're coming to you in a bucket Like KFC Giving away all of our riches Follow and trust He Foolish Judas couldn't do it Now it's 8 plus 3 There is no way, to have a good day Without proclaiming the name Of He who raised You rockin' with the servant of the best JGivens Sidekick to the One in the air, Scott Pippen Cast on Him every care and stop trippin' Die to who you thought you was, and start living. Kingdom affiliates Bummpin Scribbling Idiots Saved by His grace We couldn't master Leviticus I started out with "Homie, just blaze and take a hit of this" Now I'm on this "Give Him praise because He finished it" Showing you this life's not ours, it's like we rented it Numb 'til the Holy Ghost comes and now we feelin' it Numb 'til the Holy Ghost comes and now we feelin' it Regenerated life (feelin' it)

[Verse 1] ============ It was very necessary Atonement was substitionary And now we spittin' the truth in every Monestary The Eagle came to the aviary Praying over these rats like Tom and Jerry Preaching to the Pharisees Speaking to 'em verily Died like Heavy D Rise like "Where is He?" Eyes on the prize In the hills like Beverly Disguise the lies with these pills Call it therapy He said, "Will you marry Me?" I said, "You scaring me, plus, I give to charity, I am the pedigree. I am a felony? Sin is repellin' we? What is you telling me?" It's real (Israel) like Tel-Aviv All of the parts of our hearts was in ebony Chasing that kelly green That was the hell in me It's gonna bury me Enemy to Elohim Cursed to a hearse Pallbearers better carry me [Hook] ============ (Gone) What if love was up to us? (Phone) Isn't loving up to us? (Home) But if love was up to us... (Gone) Then our loving would by up (I'm Gone) What if love was up to us... (Phone, phone home) Then our loving would be up (Gone) [Verse 2] Can a dead body hear? Not apparently Definitely after multiple days It's guaranteed Did Lazarus choose the air When He let it breathe, When Christ said come forth Like the letter D? Doctrinal differences Is stopping these Christians From dropping religion It's blocking their vision They're locked in a prison And I ain't talking 'bout essentials Stop in and listen Talking 'bout these issues Secondary to fishing Like tattoos and black suits and rap dudes hats, shoes Women wearing pants Can'ts and fast food They transformed the Gospel to bad news Egotistical legalist mystical ritual Mixed with some bad views Love God with all your heart Love you neighbor where it starts It don't really matter whether it's ministry Or it's art Life is a ministry! Whether you write down a simile Or you like the clown industry The problem is sin and following men not havin' a Benz Unless you can't give it away Then it is Is anybody listenin' to the kids? We claim to seek the Kingdom Well I think they know where it IS [Hook] ============ (Gone) What if love was up to us? (Phone) Isn't loving up to us? (Home) But if love was up to us... (Gone) Then our loving would by up (I'm Gone) What if love was up to us... (Phone, phone home) Then our loving would be up (Gone) [Vamp] [Verse 3] ============ That works-based chase Camouflaged as faith is only out of sheer fear A mirage of hate An homage to Sat- ans facade of great But that don't mean either that you take advantage of Grace Get back to the first Love folks And if Christ ain't the head Then your sanity is a joke Get back to the first Love folks And if Christ ain't the head Your Christianity is a CULT

Freein' you from all the superstition I got a vision from a true religion Hopin that you will listen Widows and orphans is on my mind Like endorphans And all my time Is important If it's given to them And them is really us We were the fatherless We were the widows 'cause What the Groom wanted from us was the opposite Of what we really lust So in a rush No prepaid card We put Him on hush And then we boxed Him up This ain't no smoke pine so my flows shine Tryna spit a cold line for a some dope rhymes It's a syllabus Sharpen your number 2s Darken the one you choose It's either win or lose Bubble the Ws Puddles of blood acrued Bruised for the love of you For the sum of you That's every one of you Truly release to the streets the lovely news The beauty of the beast is he's humble, too Like that other crew Lifting the King of Jews Spittin' them syllables And fixing you dinner, too Pleading BLOOD like a vampire interview The Kingdom's at hand So this is finger food The new religion is "serving" Do the dishes The poor are hungry and you're the kitchen, Givens On Giving them a new song Rightly dividing, deciphering the right from wrong What is you on? Where did you go, and how did you know? It's 'cause I phone, The home of the King on the throne [Hook] Roll, Rock, Sk8 Stop Hate Stack papes (paper) and give em away That's how we livin' homie, Look how we livin' homie [Verse 2] ...and He was Executed innocently In the place of the skull J. Fitzgerald Kennedy Tell them I exist in three Spirit Father Risen King And these three are O-N-E This is my divinity Neo, this is Trinity And you will love your enemies Even those offending Me You will be the like of Me You will be my simile Synonym, sin in them? I was killed for all of these Blood is the remedy Love how we livin', homie Givens an 80s baby like a Members Only Getting crazy Hope you listen, homie 'Cause man's religion is pimpin' the men and women, homie But you ain't got to pay to drink Like with-lemon-only The Holy Spirit Spirit Holy and it's sittin' on me Pointin' out the phonies and they acting like they didn't know me It's all good Just watch who you be attackin', homie Tryna see a dynasty No Shaq and Kobe Kingdom, uhn

We quote scriptures cuz the flows written We know different so we soul spittin' Like old women when we flow wisdom They testin' adolescents with questions The don't get it Make 'em say "Uh..." Like No Limit Ignorance harbors the monopoly It started with Socrates Now fools is copying these prophecies Step off in your cypher with a sniper rifle Truth in the ring like Rocky 3 Fightin' telescopically The battle's not against you and me Or TV It's really The prestige of Houdini Cuz it's unseen Like 1, 3 where the 2 be The fight is up there and it's high like Cooley So follow He Not the dollar green Elohim's Angels murk and leave, Michael got a blade Like Halloween Fight in the sky Where the kamikazee flies And it nose dives For my insides But the Father sees Hoping these lyrics will excite you Stay with the beats like Dwight Schrute And if you feel it Then get your hands up in the air Like I might shoot But not for me, for that Thief-in-the-night dude That's triune Unlike you Like a change of heart on a post on Facebook or Facebook Murder like Mook Executed like Tookie Williams and He killed Him Just for you Truth

Un nuovo Giorno [Verse 1] Cash to ashes, trust to dust It pleased the Dad to crush the Son Then we came and filled Him up with holes No Shia LaBeouf He married to us,though He ain't tired of us We talkin' Hosea, man That bride was us Lord, can you please wake Tabitha up? He rose her Like "Imma let you finish but please make your way to the back of the bus." They staring at the front but the riot is up He's unsung even when the choir is up And I can't take credit for no "nice flow" Because without the Holy G, though I would probably write slow And I ain't talking speed Talking mentally Like them dudes that whack rap But they're covered in ice though They claim they got bread And yeah they might, though But they ain't truly eatin' Like China when they rice low (low) [Hook] I thought that I could find my way back home Turned around and bread crumbs was gone And now I'm stuck tryna rap to the throne I'm praying that this mic is on (They're Gone) [Verse 2] This flesh be my weakness These demons keep repeating to me all of the deeds I tried to keep secret Coach asked, "What wins games?" We said, "Defense." Put that armor on Like Paul in Eph-ee-sus Or was it Ephesus? Man, I forgot the belt of truth And my pants fell And now I'm climbing out this ink well Tears falling down Lord, I meant well Feeling blind with a sword like Denzel I wanna tour in the PGA But yo it seems I can't get up of this course with these windmills And the pastor say If I can't find faith, Then droppin' a couple Yen will So I'm staring at this gold plate Thinking this gas money I got in my pocket Will pay to get my soul straight But I left feeling empty like the gas tank Left alone to fight clubs like Brad Hanks Or was it Tom Pitt? Either way life's an empty box of chocolates Tell me what I'm gon' get An empty heart shape I'm tryna pass Go But it feels these treadmills is on Park Place Smile on me Lord like Scarface Cuz I can hardly see the Light, I'm in a dark place Then they covered Him in red like Target (Tar-jay) And the sky faded black like dark gray This is for those that's reading their Bibles Tired of folks that don't tryna talk about it the most Not tryna condemn Just tryna promote That O double F symbol on the remote Television's box of lies Perverting the eyes With dark lights and white lies Even Satan, himself, can wear Heaven's disguise Might be your televangelist Don't Be surprised [Hook] I thought that I could find my way back home Turned around and bread crumbs was gone And now I'm stuck tryna rap to the throne I'm praying that this mic is on

Rep Christ 'til we die Lift His name like stilettos Lion of Judah schoolin' the Nazarene ghetto Millenium falcon pouncin' on these rebels Your little violins got nothing on these cellos Kingdom first but on Earth we seek pebbles Gold in His streets is deeper than these yellows Abraham spoke to God as three fellows Trinity Timothy reads but we settle... For a lie, Man-made proclamations Pray for heretics headed for damanation Faced with these interpretations This enemy's literally robbin' us Like Dick Grayson Livin' to look different Just like a mis-match Ministering angels dispatch We just tryna be the salt Tryna season this earth like Ms. Dash At the mountain shoutin' Hands in the air like Six Flags Everybody praying asking, "Kingdom, come quick" The Gospel is, "The Kingdom is here, it's at fist!" Well technically at hand Connected to that wrist Where they pierced the Lamb Betrayed Him with that kiss To all the women and men in this position Struggling between your sin and your religion Get rid of both, cuz the Truth is risen Transform our backslides into backflips These are breaks No backspins Died for JGivens' and Jay Mac's sins Lord willing we keep grinding like half Clipse What up Malice We see Him using your talents The kid (Kidd) finally gets a ring Welcome to Dallas Your little brother's next on the list Just keep at him I'd rather see eagle's wings Than see talons To God be the glory Solely for our salvation Holy Spirit regenerating this foul nation Check the Psalms These pilgrims progressing Screaming Soli Deo Gloria Like Estefan Even though you may not get saved off this rhyme He's tryna tell us that our eyes ain't clear Like Ben Stein Holy Ghost be revealed in Romans 10:9 Cuz Satan's infilitrating this wedding Like Vince Vaughn If the only way to heaven's perfection We got a problem If the only way to heaven's perfection We got a problem Oh my God whose gonna solve it?
