Da T.r.u.t.h. - Our World lyrics

Hook Welcome to our world No k**ers, drug dealers Guerillas, no villains Christ told us that most of them won't feel us Welcome to our world No hustlers, customers Everybody in the building Get your hands up with the rest of us Verse 1 If The Game could give props to Biggie, Pac and Dre And the whole rap world could give love to "J" And they could pay homage to Jam Master Jay And commemorate the heroes that pa**ed away Then I could proceed with what I have to say And pay respect to all the godly men that pa**ed The Faith Yeah, they went ahead of us And died so that we could have life pa**ed the grave From prophets to the priests Take it back to the days when faith had a face And not just a mouth when the saints grabbed the grace And I ain't talkin' about the prayer before you pa** the plate I'm talkin' 'bout what taught them to stay fast and trade The pleasures of this life for Ahaz's hate Now, I know they "wasn't" perfect but play back the tapes And history will show how the saints' path was shaped Hook Verse 2 People got questions like But y'all always talkin' 'bout Calvin and Luther 'Cause these are the dudes that introduced us to truth And the fruit that's produced in us is the outcome So from now until the day that we die We'll occupy with the things of God while our mouths run That's unique to the saints Let me explain what I mean You know I mean what I say We're following after the pioneers leading the way Apostles like Paul and others that were labeled the way It was either all or nothing These were the writers of the Bible we believe in today I know they're gone but not forgotten Is so strong we say so long to the evil That His people would read those leaders and say Hook Verse 3 Y'all know we're the legs and feet of the legacy Predestined to be We're all just a piece of the puzzle I'm walking in the footprints that were left for me Now, I know I just quoted one of their poets But take note How the past and the present Led up to the path of our destiny Break Verse 3 Continues Since the baton has been pa**ed We want to write 'em a pa** and invite them to our world Where the mind has been transformed By the power of Christ We draw lines in the sand That would explain the unpopular stance Like pro-life that wouldn't heighten the chance Of being liked So, while the wicked sing songs that got them in a trance We sing songs and hymns like the bottom of your pants 'Cause we're different While in the West Coast, they say let's load the bangers Over-dress codes Saints in the foreign land Playing low To our fleshly impulses post weighing the pros and cons We don't close our eyes So you know we're opposed to wine Or at least getting drunk And say I do before we close the blinds No boasting and pride, no boasting in "I" Pray that you and I would be a poster child In the Kingdom of God where Christ is Lord We submit unto the authority Life in Christ So we abhor evil
