flame - 2kr lyrics

Loading...

[intro]
you know i ain’t even really know there was a difference
i mean a lot of people in the calvinistic world they they salute the homie lutheran
but you never really get exposed to especially what he taught on justification
who he really was
the teachings he really brought to the table (for real)
the more i do that i’m really being liberated (teach)

[verse 1]
let me show the difference of these two traditions (let’s get it)
it can be complicated but let’s go to distance (with it)
the lutheran approach versus john calvin’s
you know a lot about the later from my nine albums (ha)
phillip mclanchton, luther’s young boy
book of concord, ap article four
explains fully what it means to be justified
and where to go to find proof that you trusted god
but first, there’re three uses of the law
the first one really serves as a curb for us all
the fear of punishment keeps us from going to far
that’s for christians and non-christians alike to be sure (give ’em more)
the second use really serves as a mirror
and always accuses keeping consciences in terror
it’s where the (where the what?)
law comes crushing and you feel like you were nothing
now you live in fear of judgement
hold up

[chorus]
two types of righteousness
call it 2kr (2kr)
one is horizontal
one is vertical (yes they are)
one before each other, one before the lord
one is active, one is p-ssive
keep em apart, say less

[verse 2]
the third use, exclusive to the christians
empowered by the spirit shows us how we should live in (yuh)
a sinful world with sin remnants while being forgiven (yuh)
the old adam got drown down in baptism (so remember it)
if you been redeemed better say so (i been redeemed)
we can’t become clean, coram deo
what that mean?
that’s latin for “before god”
we spiritually poor and on the pay role (whatchu pay?)
the wages of sin is death cased closed (how you get saved?)
so vertically if jesus doesn’t save souls
then the doors of heaven forever will stay closed
even our righteousness to god is like a waste load
oh, but praise god for his son though (all to him we owe)
another latin phrase, called coram mundo
what that mean?
“how we live before each other”
we should be serving, loving, healing, and building one another up (go)

[chorus]
two types of righteousness
call it 2kr (2kr)
one is horizontal
one is vertical (yes they are)
one before each other, one before the lord
one is active, one is p-ssive
keep em apart, say less

[verse 3]
in the calvinistic tradition emphasis on holy living starts to reach out it’s position (facts)
in such a way that it proves our justification
progressive nature of sanctification becomes the basis (i know i’m right)
upon which one can find his -ssurance
so more self-examination, pure motives and endurance
introspection now you’re etching (etching)
into coram deo
misusing the third use of the law if i can say so (you can say so)
yeah the third use serves as a guide
but our sanctified lives will not get us justified
listen, paul quoted genesis in romans 4 (romans 4)
said that abraham was justified by his faith (true)
but the chapter he quoted, genesis 15 (okay)
in chapter 12 in genesis was when he got saved (facts)
he called him ungodly on that same page (facts)
but he’d been living sanctified and left his pagan ways (facts)
the point is if you’re fresh in or been saved (connect)
he counted him as righteous because of his faith (yeah)
that’s why luther emphasized the completed work of justification
over the partial incompleted work (sanctification)
so then how should we then live below?
focus on serving our neighbor that is coram mundo (we get active)
and when the second use is crushing your soul
let it drive you to the gospel ’cause christ carried that load
say less

[chorus]
two types of righteousness
call it 2kr (2kr)
one is horizontal
one is vertical (yes they are)
one before each other, one before the lord
one is active, one is p-ssive
keep em apart, say less

[outro]
2kr, two kinds of righteousness (yeah)
