benjamin the esquire - standing tall on their shoulders lyrics

let me introduce a topic and recover forgotten facts
that lots of cats have passed on while they’re loving the hottest fads
and it’s a shame cos i can name old heads with ancient wisdom
patient living, grace, forgiveness
things that make a grateful witness
they confessed what they believed and wrote it in q & a form
addressing brothers who received the only true and great lord
it’s called a catechism, it’s a useful teaching method
not just for catholic bishops, but for you to seek the heavens
it was written so you wouldn’t walk away like a ball four
or commit some doctrinal fouls up on your ball court
the spitting witnesses that i summoned and called forth include the
lamp mates shai and tim brindle
lyrical stalwarts evangel and zae da black will slay the track
i pray in fact you play it back and get liver than you’d expect
you can test the catechism’s true intent is pure and truly blessed
welcome to the album, put your feet up, cos you my guest
we need to go back
we should recover some habits of old from
brothers who passed on this road. we need to go back
standing tall on their shoulders, we honor the ones that are older
we need to go back
we’re from a proud heritage that’s larger than where we live
we need to go back
we’ve got fathers in the faith we acknowledge them in this race
let me the address the who
the when the what the where and get it
out in the air all up in the public square
here’s the who: there was a group of theologians and pastors who
seeking after reaching the masses while teaching with jesus’ passion
when: in the 1640s they congregated and contemplated
topics that are oft debated / they forming a doctrine statement
they called that document the westminster confession of faith split
into questions of lessons addressing your fate guess
that was the what the where’s the island of great britain
the truth has traveled great
distance in helping your faith and mission
before i move on let me neutralize a nuke bomb
if there’s a dude that strong from deuteronomy or luke one
he’s not lukewarm, i don’t care about his human suit y’all
could be white like a cue ball or dark as night and a q+dog
there’s no excuse to choose to refuse him or boo him if
he’s schooling you in the use of your tools for the ruler yeshua
have you ever struggled summarizing what is a christian thinks?
catechism does it well and tosses in the kitchen sink
the format of this teaching tool is great for family worship time cos
passing on a legacy of strong faith is worth it, right?
let’s not be arrogant, ignoring the glories we have inherited
let’s cherish this incomparable heritage
from african bishops whose passion is actively with us
to pastors with wisdom that’s catching flack in a prison
we have a past that is packed to capacity
so criticism of these facts is a tragedy, that is lacking in vision
the audacity to laugh at the past
thinking it’s old school is actually a
habit that’s whack don’t be so bold fool
i hear my kids say “daddy
i’m glad i’m a christian” attracting their vision instead of always
battling with them i pass on convictions that they will then engraft
in their mission and that’s the facts
of why i’m actually rapping bout catechism
