the wiz (rapper) - thief lyrics

[hook – legacy]
as the sun sets from east to west
jesus comes like a thief in the night
as the sun sets from east to west
jesus comes like a thief in the night
as the sun sets from east to west
jesus comes like a thief in the night
as the sun sets
as the sun sets
as the sun sets
haaaaa!

[verse 1 – legacy]
see i’ve been thinkin, i’ve been thinkin
like really i’ve been on the brink of extinction
we don’t have that distinction from the play pen to detention
so sit and listen as i speak with tension
on a high ascension with the lords approval
but still got to watch my back like i’m ruling cuba
jesus coming back like he’s gooding jr
but you wasn’t ready let the devil fool us
i got tools in the shed but lead in the head
legs of full of steam but i lost my esteem so the team fled
[so i’ve been wondering, i’ve been wondering
walk until i fall then it’s the pit i tumble in
no one else to brawl and tears done lost their salt
so it was self pity i was swallowing]
{but wait a minute}
god calls and you don’t pause, cause you done lost it all
then your shield falls with all your flaws and you can’t help but listen
then dark fades when glory raises it
grace comes in and taze ya, leaves ya laid out then the holy spirit fazes ya ha!
if i ain’t get the message then i ain’t calling ya
but i really i did and it’s jesus calling ya
his arms reach out times three folds never harming ya
perfect harmony huh?

[verse 2 – the wiz]
yeah, there’s a lot of people out there who agree
that the end is nigh, no longer fantasy
spirits come to weep, hear the gnashing of their teeth
fiends no longer creep, evil no longer sleeps
when righteousness retreats and justice meets defeat
what was told by the prophets now becomes complete
no repeats, for better weather, it’s now or never
and the long arm of the law appears to be severed
i remember scenes of seraphim visions clearer than claritin
battles with savage beasts and the demise of good samaritans
the feral winds blow, false prophets and empty souls
wars, famines, earthquakes, all of matthew 24
and no one shall know the hour minute or the second
so we’re left guessing, time and place, misdirection
not a reflection of faith more like a ploy to save face
by the end of this race, we long for amazing grace
and that’s a shortstop from change, a world wrapped in chains
like zombies after brains, our flesh stays the same
that thang, that we all call sin it reels us in
from the beginning of creation all way till the end
but now behold a lamb, like b he got a plan
he’s both, god & man, no darkness can withstand
the light that he exudes, the power he protrudes
the authority to say we don’t need yo rules
and now humanity waits upon instance of his entrance
to learn of his return, the fulfillment of his message
and when will that be? 2093?
in a day or a week? while i’m rappin’ this beat?
whenever wherever prepare yourself, stand your ground
wear your crown, build your mound, stay afloat, don’t drown
listen for the trumpet sound it can come any moment
beautiful music for some and for others a deadly notice
that’s why we gotta stay focused…
yes that’s why we gotta stay so focuseddd…
at the time he comes i’m hopin
that my doors are so open
cuz…

[hook]
as the sun sets from east to west
jesus comes like a thief in the night
as the sun sets from east to west
jesus comes like a thief in the night
as the sun sets from east to west
jesus comes like a thief in the night
as the sun sets
as the sun sets
as the sun sets
jesus comes like a thief in the night
