Da Truth - Man Up lyrics

You know how da plot goes, you could tell the difference when da pops is in the household, most of us are not told, often when da pops home, leaves a legacy, plantin' seeds then the crops grow I recall my pops quotes, when I was a snot nosed, A man with no control is like a city that's without walls. I can still hear his teachings ringin though the house halls, when its not profitable, How to keep my mouth closed. Gettin over obstacles, dodgin all da potholes, He taught me etiquette and ethics out of God's laws Turned me onto Oswald Chambers, Now my eyes close Prayin that i would find a wife that would make my house home Yea; now I'm proud to say I'm faithful, if it wasn't for those spankins I'd probably pop pain pills Now I'm off of training wheels, since I had a father that, taught me God the Fathers heart, I'm equipped to train and build... WARRIORS If you walk in the authority of Jesus man have your shoulders broad (where my)WARRIORS If you stand up under pressure like da hebrew boys and your soul is strong (where my) WARRIORS God fearin gentlemen, generals, get in your positions man (where my)WARRIORS Men take coverage, don't faint, don't fall if you know the Lord (where my)WARRIORS Man we need role models, gotta lot of teachers but, man we need more fathers, Talkin bout spiritual, teach us how to be mature, but if they abandon us, How we gon go further? Tell me who we gonna follow, we gonna get our core values, From the dudes rappin on the screens of our floor models. And you dont wanna leave it up to rappers who Contend to be trap stars, bonafide who*emongers Hold up, more problems, Men wont step one foot in, to the local church cuz it, caters to a womens bent And its full of feminine, men man we pushin them, Far away from Christ into the arms of the m**m men! Cuz men dont need to "primp" we need strength, Christ was not a hippie pickin lillies' with his friends, Jesus was a mans man, so men followed him, doin God the Father's will, sayin father I wont sin! WARRIORS If you walk in the authority of Jesus man have your shoulders broad (where my)WARRIORS If you stand up under preasure like da hebrew boys and your soul is strong (where my) WARRIORS God fearin gentlmen, generals, get in your positions man (where my)WARRIORS Men take coverage, dont faint, dont fall if you know the Lord (where my)WARRIORS Listen, I am not a chauvinist, but a Godly man is a stickler for holiness, him and Christ look alike, sorta like the Olsen twins, and he practices what he preaches from the holy script! But a natural man, he don't even know he's sick. He takes his natural man and treats him like he don't exist. He's enticed by every woman that blows a kiss, sin makes a Godly man wail (whale) like moby dick! A Godly man's content when hes in the church, a natural man chases whatever's in a miniskirt, or in a dress like the gettysburg, He's monogomous even if it really hurts like givin birth! But that's the cause and effect, which really goes to show you how the cross can affect, New man new clothes in the drawers of our dressers, man we at war with our swords and our vestes! WARRIORS If you walk in the authority of Jesus man have your shoulders broad (where my)WARRIORS If you stand up under preasure like da hebrew boys and your soul is strong (where my) WARRIORS God fearin gentlmen, generals, get in your positions man (where my)WARRIORS Men take coverage, dont faint, dont fall if you know the Lord (where my)WARRIORS
