lyrics
Take it There
(Deadman)
I'm sorry what i make is not popular music/ i make that head nod and a possible two step/ i make fire and brimstone apocolapse music/ i make that pump your fist/ GOD's starting a movement/
my motto's are useless if GOD isn't moving/ your heart removing the darkness and putting a fire into it/ I'm tired of dudes who try to be cool with/ the world, you don't like it? you got a problem then mute it/
But guess what GOD will still use it/ in spite of me, my righteousness is a fountain of sewage/ and yet/ in spite of my foolish attempts/ I'm still seeing so many dudes that repent/
i mean deny the ministry but the fruit is the test/ whether or not that's a truth you'll accept/ we're trying to quench the flame of lucifer's breath/ convicting youth through the text the scripture mutilates flesh/
Chorus:
(Deadman)
I see people that's dead in sin/ they need more than just medicine/ they need life to seek Christ / why wouldn't I take it there?/ from the hood to the burb/ the thugs to the nerds/ I see brothers that hurt/ why wouldn't I take it there?/
(Caution)
I see people locked up in prison/ needing Christ not a religion/ Lord help them make a decision/ why wouldn't I take it there?/ From the clubs & the beef/ to the drugs & the streets I see reasons to preach/ why wouldn't I take it there.
(Caution)
For the lowly these rhymes are to encourage and counsel/ for the proud it's to humble and pull out your tonsils/ to get your lips swollen, striaght lock up your jaw/ your defending yourself, now it's time to read you the law/
First let's dismiss this thought that your a good person/ you can fool me but God can see your lying and cursing/ "Yeah I've done that before but who in the world hasn't?"/ Well excuse me but that's "Good" by divine standards/
Perfection. No substitutes accepted/ so if your hearing my voice then your bound to get rejected/ correction, you compare yourself to pagans/ but none will go to heaven 'lest someone comes to save them/
Now you understand why Jesus does what he did/ it wasn't to be your homeboy but to cover your sins/ he didn't die so you and I could say a prayer then split/ love him then quit? He desires relationship!/
Chorus
(Deadman)
And if they let me in the club cuz they like how I spit/ then i pray I kill their buzz no matter how much they drink/ preach conviction and I pray they're despising their sins/ but I refuse to sugar coat it just to be invited again/
I don't care if you don't like me as a friend/ I'm trying to save your life even if my rhymes will offend/ so from junior high to the pen/ high rises and gyms/ Christ is the King and you know it's time to repent/
(Caution)
So unless ur a new creature & completely transformed/ there's no such thing as being saved then going back 2 the norm/ but Yes Jesus loves u but if your practicing sin/ John 14:24 reveals u don't love him/
So we take this message 2u & also the dudes in the church/ who haven't read the book of James & relying on Good Works/ This may be sobering news but I hope it moves u2 action/ cuz u & God r seperated like the top & bottom of fractions./
