Young & Unashamed
(专辑: If They Only Knew - 2006)
[Verse 1:] Hey when they see ya boy, what's they first impression? Probably not a
teen redeemed from the
worst transgressions That's repented from the
path of His first ancestors Was cursed but since rebirth this person's dressed in The
glorious righteousness of Christ They probably think I'm on the
stage 'cause I
like the
mic Or like to get hype, but really I'm laid back main But sometimes could lose my mind if you say that name (Who?) Jehohah Jireh, my soul's provider Life without Him's a
contradiction like being poor with Prada I
done wrote a
lot of flows, in my soul's a
fire That shut up in my bones, ah my soul desire Is for some slick guys to the
know the
Lord He died But still the
Son did rise like it was morning time So if you think you fully satisfied with a
vette with chrome You better check yourself like playing chess alone I'm a
stranger, is Earth really my residence? Nope I'm a
alien and I
can't wait to rest at home My dress ain't always fresh to def I
ain't impressed with clothes But Christ, He's the
key to life dog and death's the
door (and rebirth) Since the
moment I
believed, my flesh was broke Sin lost it's control and death it's hold So maybe now you'll understand and get up in ya brain Why ya boy so young and unashamed [Verse 2:] They don't associate ya boy with Christ Jesus kid 'Cause I
got my hat cocked and my jeans is big No suit and tie, tall tees and kicks But you ain't gotta be a
geek to preach that Jesus lives So it's almost strange when they see me hit tha street blocks 'Cause with my life I
copy Christ like a
Xerox No heat cocked, I
roll with the
Lord and With a
team full of Saints like I
play for New Orleans We hold each other accountable when seekin sound doctrine Through Christ we been found not guilty without Cochran We kingdom people selected to rep His name Forget bout cheddar main, Christ is the
better thing I
don't let no weapon hang, I
don't roll with thugs That's holdin drugs and spendin all they dough in clubs I
roll with a
gang of believers that's crazy for Jesus That's saved from the
flames and unashamed of His teachings Cats be like, "You just a
baby, how you know about the
Lord?" To know Jehovah at His core we had to open up our swords We read His word on a
daily, His inspired text And submit to the
Spirit dog, we died to flesh I
confess, they tell us that our youth is bein wasted Instead of jewels up in a
bracelet, we speak truth each time we make hits So maybe now it's stuck up in ya brain Why the
116 is so young and unashamed [Verse 3:] Cats don't really understand, they think I
lost my mind They hood on they back, but I
rock a
cross on mine Walk with Christ in light, blood bought plus I'm Not dark as night, I'm light because I
sought His shine I
was living for today, was always caught in crimes Bout guilty as O.J., my talk and walk declined The
Boss of time and space, but I
put that to rest man I
saw my old life, it wasn't right like my left hand Now He orders my steps and with Him is how I
walk bro Got off the
highway to Hell and I
took the
cross roads Now I'm walkin with Christ, what beautiful thing It's cooler than fame, more precious than jewelry and chains Most think God is just old school like Kool and the
Gang They wanna be like Jeezy, Jay-Z and Ludacris main But I'm here today to say that if you want a
greater day Don't fade away, cling to Christ and His amazing savin grace If you a
Christian who accepted the
King and you clean We gotta move, the
Lord is pleased when we play on His team I
hope young believers understand, I
pray it's in ya brain If we love the
Lord we must be young and unashamed
