believin’ stephen – gospel and justice lyrics
[verse 1: believin’ stephen]
yeah, you swagged out and you drippin’ with confidence
but has your confidence turned into straight c-ckiness? (has it?)
boastin’ in self? man, the word calls it godlessness
instead let’s spread his name throughout the metropolis
and let’s be cognizant of his dominance
christ reigns over the earth with prominence
yes his awesomeness is so obvious
let’s acknowledge it, trust in his promises
i guess i’m feelin’ it’s a reason to vent (how come?)
’cause god should get the glory if you’re reading the text
no longer will i warm up a seat on the bench
i gotta speak up on the sequence of events
we gotta draw a line, we can’t be on the fence
’cause cats are two-faced, i’m not speakin’ of dent (harvey)
yeah, some of you jokers really need to repent
but is your heart hardened like a piece of cement?
[hook: chrys jones]
the world needs the gospel
’cause everybody needs the truth
the world needs justice too
good trees bear good fruit
[x2]
[verse 2: believin’ stephen]
it’s quite clear that the focus has shifted
you changed your approach and i notice the difference
why, when the issue is social, you’re livid
but when it comes to the gospel, you are timid?
i do not hear about hope and conviction
you’re dope and you’re christian, i know that you’re gifted
but lemme ask you, who gave you the gift?
do you ever really give him any praise when you spit? (do you?)
i have to admit christian rap has failed socially
and issues should be talked about more vocally
we live in a time and an age of injustice
how do i find the lines to say i’m disgusted?
let’s discuss this, if you care to listen
so sick of the headlines: “there’s a k!lling”
so where’s the villain? it’s the darren wilsons
and george zimmermans, k!llin’ parents’ children
cops shooting again due to tone of their skin
so broken within, this the grossest of sins
it’s no mystery, so many know misery
so we should have comp-ssion and always show sympathy
christ came for the broken and marginalized
so let our hearts be loving and be starved of our pride
meanwhile, media’s teaching obvious lies
let’s fight for unity, not make walls that divide
[hook: chrys jones]
the world needs the gospel
cause everybody needs the truth
the world needs justice too
good trees bear good fruit
[x2]
[verse 3: believin’ stephen]
jesus christ, the god man, is our model
don’t deny him and abandon the gospel
we should fight for change, with a righteous rage
but we’re more concerned with who likes our page
we’re in a time and age where pride is praised
let’s refine our ways in these final days
i’ll admit as i rap in my stanzas
i do not have all the practical answers
don’t get it twisted on what i’m enforcing
undoubtedly justice is important
i’m not quite sure on how you’ll receive this
i’m just sayin’ that a balance is needed (how come?)
we can have all the freedom and justice on earth
but then when we die and are crushed under dirt
what awaits us is something much worse
without faith in christ, face his judgment and curse
so let’s push for freedom and justice on earth
and include the cross as something of worth
i know that it hurts whenever you’re sinned against
jesus christ the true picture of innocence
never sinned once yet disowned by his people
and yet it should be noted that he spoke against evil
but died for his enemies, their lies and their treachery
cast your cares on him ’cause christ is the remedy!
