Crossin' Up

When you see us in yo hood Looking like a soldier should Bringing you some news that's Good telling sin I wish you would I was Soo far gone no One could get in living in A land that I really don't fit in Born much different then The rest of my kin So I just wanted my Life to come to an end Tried suicide too many Times then I realized Christ wouldn't let me Now I know why eventhough I'm squeezing this trigger these Rounds aren't ejecting Hatred took over then I went dark Blinded by sin so I played my part Sharp with my tongue Hearts getting numb Spitting that flame do you Really wonna fan that spark Then came the day That I met the Christ He told me that he paid For the sin in my life The only thing he asked In return is that I trust His heart and stop Living so trif so I asked The Lord how could this be That anyone could ever love A wrech like me he stretched Out his hand lifted me up Then told me all I gotta Do is taste and see When he touched my Hand I felt a change Suddenly things didn't Feel the same he told Me when I felt the Weight of the world on my shoulders all I gotta do Is call and whisper his name So I took that leap According to faith that's When I felt the embrace Of saving grace He stretched out his hand Then took my place And put me in position To run this race although I cry to myself at times I ain't gonna sit here a testi-lie When it comes to the change And they ask me why I tell them Jesus loved Me back to life When you see us in yo hood Looking like a soldier should Bringing you some news that's Good telling sin I wish you would When you see us in yo hood Looking like a soldier should Bringing you some news that's Good telling sin I wish you would Now y'all done slipped up And let a brother wit my Mental fall in this thang I ain't trying to claim I'm a balla that swangs I'm just representing Jesus man swerving Through these faulty Streets with the gospel Of peace cause I realize Sin don't sleep so I stay Covered in the armor of Christ just in case I gotta knock a demon off his peak Gotta stay on my knees at Night cause when living Right you gotta stay saturated By the light In ordered to Be covered cause you know That the enemy's coming Trying to knock you off From the blind side We constantly crossin' up Denying ourselves the appetites Of the flesh the wages of sin Only ends in death separated From the father guess what Wit sin chin checked we've been Placed on the battlefield Ready to die for the cause Fighting this fight for the Lost and coming like david we Chopping Goliaths head off we Spiritually dangerous and Not cause of us but because Of his blood that was shed we Standing in Jesus stead and Blessed to be known by the Father as his walking dead When we squad up and carry Our cross we breaking Hells bricks leaving sin Running for they hard hats But they fall flat cause they Realize it's worst then intense contact with a ballbat so When you see us out here Thicker than mud we Ain't tossin up no sets We simply crossin' it up When you see us in yo hood Looking like a soldier should Bringing you some news that's Good telling sin I wish you would When you see us in yo hood Looking like a soldier should Bringing you some news that's Good telling sin I wish you would
