Cash Or Christ

(专辑： If They Only Knew - 2006)

[Chorus:]
Forget about the cash, Forget about the clothes
Forget about the stash, Forget about the dough
Forget about the cars, Forget about the rims
Forget about dem stars, Forget about the benz
Forget about the big crib, tryna get rich,
The big six-fo, plenty dough and tryna sip chrys
Forget the cash and chains, that stuff will pass away
And you can't take it with you to yer after days

[Trip Lee:]
Most' concerned with the cheddar flow, but dawg I gotta let em know
A lot of reasons we should be seeking Jesus instead of dough
Instead of mo material things, the jewelry n fame
I speak of the Kang, but most ain't feeling me main
They would rather let they money stack, tryna get a hundred stack
They pockets fat, but they not ready when Christ is coming back
If they only knew the real truth about the comin wrath
They would probably race to Him faster than a running back
I know the things the cheddar buys, will attract and catch the eyes
Instead of ice, it'd be nice, if we would invest in life
Instead of all that flashy stuff, tryna get our status up
His wrath is just, so if we don't seek Him dawg then we outa luck
What good is it to gain the world and in'da end lose ya soul?
It's foolish bro, there's a lovin savior you can truly know
I know you seeking satisfaction, you can't find it though
Tryna dash for the cash and designer clothes

[Chorus]

[Lecrae:]
Got money, got whips, got ice
Still broke homeboy! No Christ
Got a debt to pay, some real heavy wages
And the payment for sin is pretty outrageous
I seen him park the car, suicide do's
Without Christ he walking through a suicide do'
The dollar bill say in God we trust
It's funny cause money is the only God we trust
And she say that she a Christian, but I can't tell
She ain't depending on God, she depend on man
1 stack, 2 stack, 3 stack, fo
They spent they whole life stacking up dough
And when they die not a dimes gone go
Now they physically rich, but they spiritually po'
And they probably never heard of 1 Corinthians chapter fo'
'Cause they said they can't imagine God's people being po' (whoa)

[Chorus]

[Trip Lee:]
You might want you some change, yeah you might want a crib
But tell me where the Bible say that Jesus want us rich?
It says we should be content if we got food and clothin
That's the truth and bro, we tripping really being foolish homie
We shouldn't put no value on fallin screens and stylish chrome
Even if you saved that stuff can't go with you when you back at home
So allow me to encourage you, if you agree the Word is true
You can only serve one Master, some of us is serving two
'Can't serve God and cash, can't love the world and Christ
Put money out ya mind, focus on eternal life
'Can't speak from experience, I ain't seen it but I'm betting
Treasures of this world ain't nothing next to the ones that's up in Heaven
Feel free to store em up, since we found the Lord is just
Amazing let us praise Him main and try to give Him more of us
Let us live our life with Him, spend our days and nights with Him
Ignore the trash the world has to offer and delight in Him

[Chorus]
