Dee-1 - I'm Not Perfect (I'm A Christian) lyrics

[Intro] One thing I learned about life is everybody can't like you And if they like you, what that really mean at the end of the day You only gotta answer to one man Better know who you are [Verse 1] So tired, tired of ridin' the fence Feel like the Lord looking down like "Dee, I ain't convinved." Uh-uh, it all hit me one night What's my purpose on this earth, I think I lost sight Alright It's kinda hard to stay focused up in this game So many bad influences be tempting you to change I know the people see I'm a positive dude on stage But it's a difference between being positive and being saved Get deep with me I'm in the room playin' music for some industry folks Whoo! I keep that heat with me I feel like they could take me to the next level Tryna impress 'em and show 'em my talent special Look, the conversation turns religious It's so convenient to say 'I believe in God." and keep it real vague and not specific Do I not wanna offend nobody? Do I not wanna go in detail and risk 'em talking crazy 'bout me? Am I worried 'bout what's convenient for me? Am I disowning Christ before others, Matthew 10:33 Man, am I playing it safe as can be? No sir I'm not afraid to proudly claim my Christianity [Hook] I'm a Christian And that don't think I mean I'm perfect But I know I got a purpose That's why I'm on my grind I'm a Christian Got God's favor so I shine, my swag is divine Operating on His time I'm a Christian I can't deny it, I can't deny it, no need to hide it I'm a Christian, wha- what, what, what? I'm a Christian [Verse 2] They ask am I a Christian rapper, a rapper that's a Christian More swag and more lyrics than your favorite rapper 'cept I'm on a different mission Unashamed disposition Sanctified with a vision Down to ride, I ain't trippin' Devil tryna catch me slippin' Now I be on television, so all of the stakes risen' Not gon' die or go to prison Not a product of the system, nah I'm rebellin' and tellin' my brethren That what the media yellin' and sellin' won't get 'em to heaven No sir Get deep with me Jesus died for my sins on the cross But this girl tryna sleep with me Do I do it and satisfy my flesh? Or make up some excuse like "Uh, I forgot the latex." Or do I man up and say "I can't do it Cuz I ain't tryna disobey the word of God." Am I scared I'm gon' look foolish? Am I scared she gon' make fun of me? Not no more, cuz I proudly submit To this bible sitting in front of me [Hook] [Verse 3] Yo This ain't no court room, but everybody quick to judge Can't wait for me to slip so they can quickly pull the plug It ain't no love They say I hang out with the thugs If I recall right Jesus hung out with the thugs Am I lyin'? But it's never just because Know I'm really on my grind Mark 2:17, yeah that be really on my mind I'm relatable yet different, yes I walk that thin line Most can't but I can, it's difficult but I'm trying So I pray I affect those around me I pray I influence the environments that surround me I pray for all the people who judge me and who don't get me They hatred don't affect me, they was never ridin' with me Ride with me in this tank, you ain't safe up in your car Spread the word, trending topic Yeah, this a spiritual war God's army, satan's army; tell me who you fightin' for Most don't even know we fightin' And that's who I'm writing for To englighten ya [Hook]
