christcentric - gate 4: t.u.l.i.p. lyrics

[verse 1: believin’ stephen on total depravity]
let me expose this tragedy called total depravity
we’re all rotten and we’re showin’ our cavities
our nature’s corrupt ’cause of adam in genesis
sin is the nemesis, it has no benefits
we’ve got poisoned tongues, none is good, not even one
you beg to differ, son, take a look at romans 1
18 through 32, check the dirt we do
your flesh is familiar like, “yeah, i’ve heard of you”
from our mothers’ wombs, we’ve all gone astray
our thoughts are consumed by our own rotten way
man’s heart is deceitful, it’s wicked and evil
we’re radically corrupt, the feeblest people
examples: s+x channels, s+x scandals, wretched vandals
[?] the bible’s mishandled
if not for the holy spirit intervenin’
we’d still be slaves to satan and his demons

[verse 2: apologist on unconditional election]
he will gather his elect from the corners of the earth
it’s the father who selects who receives the new birth
by the power of the spirit, it is all in conjunction
life, death, and resurrection of the one who was unctioned
i was dead in trespasses, now i’m free and adopted
as a son, i was given a guaranteed deposit
the spirit was hovering on the waters of creation
my shield and covering, he drew me to salvation
predestined by the lord before things were made
i still cannot fathom i was chosen to be saved
the father gave the son a group from every race
the spirit made them come to be hooked by his grace
this skeptic was elected, redeemed, and resurrected
so the glory of my god in my life can be reflected
imputed righteousness, the beginning of perfection
the doctrine i espouse is unconditional election
[verse 3: spoken word on limited atonement]
the third part of the t.u.l.i.p., limited atonement
is often disputed, many don’t condone it
but since atonement really atones men
then how are all atoned when, in h+ll, some are thrown in?
let’s for a moment check behind the verses
john 17:9, you’ll see divine purchase
blood to affect a foul nation
love directed to the elect for salvation
all of whom the father placed in his plan
predestined, christ died for the saints in his hand
take the words of christ spoken, behold, he
prays not for the world, but dies for the chosen only
so, when he rose from the grave, he fulfilled his mission
sealin’ the christians forechose to be saved
so, redemption precedes faith
and when grace is imparted to the elect, they respond and accept

[verse 4: q+d.o.g. on irresistible grace]
no one can come to christ unless the father draws him, like an artist
see, god is the cause of the hardest
heart that’s godless, that regards him not
that’s darkened like car jackers in a parkin’ lot
he’s sparkin’ this life within, ’cause lifeless men
are christless, can’t find him without his light within
but this grace ain’t prevenient, what i mean is
we weren’t born with something in our soul to make conversion convenient
we was dead in sin, born a spiritual lazarus
to say he helped raise himself, we would laugh at this
like the notion god is “open” and he’s hopin’ that he’s chosen
“no one seeks god”, read the quote in
romans 3:11 + see, our inception in christ
is ’cause god stepped in and raised us to life
there’s no question that his grace made us ripe for this selection
by election to life, we receive christ and accept him
so, without resurrection, we’re bound to a will to reject him
unless god grants an irresistible exception
[verse 5: evangel on perseverance of the saints]
we in god’s tightest…grip
and we won’t slip like his hands cramped with arthritis
we’ll be grasped above to inherit through his everlasting love
and cherished, his sheep shall never perish
to know when it’s over
we’ll persevere because of the master’s p[lan] like no limit soldiers
through christ, the debt is paid, solely
the propitiation for our ventilation, that’s made holy
called us by grace into your word’s adherence
authored our faith to see it’s perseverance
no mistakable claim
predestined, called, just, and glorified, the unbreakable chain
born again, not of the seed that will decay
but indeed, guaranteed to believe until the day
he redeems his purchased possession
and the holy spirit sealed the deal, the church’s protection

[turntablism]
