lyrics

Took a while to get here
They say we done came up
I say we been at war
Trying to lift His Name up
We be on the frontlines
That’s where they shooting at
And we ain’t scared to die fam
Cause that’s where we recruiting at
We done fought through wars
Now we on the map
What’s that Christian music?
But it sound like rap
They dying for His Name
Overseas
So the least that I can do
Is put Him over beats
I ain’t worried bout sales mayne
I’m more concerned about impact
Prepping for this war daily
So we make it back home intact
Pop culture we in that
Super dope we been that
Won’t compromise our faith
Dirty best believe I meant that
Trayvon gone now we ain’t gone stop
Cause we a voice for the
Lost and the have nots
All these sharks swarming
I see em coming
I know they smell blood
But we ain’t running

(chorus)
We paint the city for His Glory mix paint
I’m seeing through the struggles fish tanks
All these sharks try and stop us but they can’t
Cause all we do is keep changing big banks
I’m seeing through these struggles fish tanks
All these sharks try and stop us but they can’t
We paint the city for His Glory mix paint
Cause all we do is keep changing big banks

I was lost now I’m found
Got rid of my old crown
Traded in my mellow flow
For a more aggressive new sound
My vocals needed some thorns in it
Every track got blood on it
The voice of the martyrs
Speak out from the grave on these sonnets
Stephen stoned phillip killed
Both died for the Lord on the battlefield
I said Stephen stoned and Phillip was killed
And they died for the Name full of zeal
Rose growing in concrete we grew up in a hard place
Spat on persecuted but kept pursuing Him with grace
Display in His art case
Super glad that He saved me
Everything that I been through
Ain’t know way to persuade me
That He didn’t die and raise up
Hold up one minute
I see through em like glass tanks
I can see the fish in it
He didn’t die and raise up?
Hold up one minute
I see through em like glass tanks
I can see the sharks in it

(chorus)
