Christ Reigns

(album: Tough Love And Parables - 2011)

Running 'round acting
Man, I did a lot of crap
I was busy swigging licking hitting tipping bottles back
Man, if I was not on that
You would think I had a role on a soap opera
The way I didn't know how to act.
That's the honest facts man I wouldn't lie to ya'll
Rather than give my thanks to God
And I glorify it all.
But, since the light came
My aim is to move God even a slight change
Because Christ reigns with a suit and amour.
He's the real deal just like a Vander yo'
Other guys ain't even real
They fake like a gram of soap.
Speaking of that, Ima tell you how my daddy's dope,
How he died for me and shed his red like a can of coke.
I know he's in control you can see him orchestrating
How you gonna grab the rock if you don't know what point you play at?
I wrote this on the short occasion
Ima end it by saying the Lord's amazing.

Touched the bottom of the block and I've done seen a lot through these eyes
Though I fall and hit the ground sometimes homie I am saved now.
When it feels like it ain't worth it know that his will is still perfect. (I know that Christ reigns)
No matter what you say,
(I know that Christ reigns)
I know that Christ reigns.

Runnning round acting like I didn't know how to act
Wanted dollars for the mommas holla where them dollars at
All my reps popping caps, popping collar, popping tag,
Hopping parlors copper jack.
Though high I was on top of that.
All of that was bs then I met J-E-S-U-S
I'm a child of God why would I be less.
Christ loved us all even those the world rejects.
He cares homie that's the bottom line like the bs.
Even when I fall he's with me, he lifts me,
And when it seems no one understand me he gets me.
Me and the father know that evil can't prosper against me
They are under equipped like the cop on a 10 speed.
Gotta be the best me I can through God
Child of the most high I am who ya'll.
You would think I'm in jail
Kinda like a new pawn await my right
And seem to reach my fans through bars.

Touched the bottom of the block and I've done seen a lot through these eyes
Though I fall and hit the ground sometimes homie I am saved now.
When it feels like it ain't worth it know that his will is still perfect. (I know that Christ reigns)
No matter what you say,
(I know that Christ reigns)
I know that Christ reigns.

Yo, couldn't tell me nothing I was kinda like a Kanye
Well I am from Chicago, except my name is Courtney.
I was a major misfit
I made believe I may receive attention
If someone found me in my kitchen with wrist slit.
Yes I was depressed
Yes I was a mess
Always in a crunch that's for calling me nestle that's me.
Came to find his best and deliverance
Always lift him up
You would think i was bench pressin.
Let's see who compares huh?
Guess that settles that there.
You'll never find a father like my Abba homie is that clear?
My faith is strong enough to backslap a black bear
With bare hands and back snap this mad track delcaring
He reigns like a hundred hurricanes
Jesus Christ I heard the demons ran as they heard his name
The worlds author, the words author, salvation that whack nations
No need for [?]

Touched the bottom of the block and I've done seen a lot through these eyes
Though I fall and hit the ground sometimes homie I am saved now.
When it feels like it ain't worth it know that his will is still perfect. (I know that Christ reigns)
No matter what you say,
(I know that Christ reigns)
I know that Christ reigns.
