Nip it in the Bud Lyrics

That sin that so easily entangles you on this walk of faith, it trips you up, you gotta cut ties, man

You gotta stop before it starts to grow

Don't want sin to become a part of your soul

Keep a close eye to where your soul ties

If it ain't for Christ then it ain't for life

Just quit it, don't wait another minute

You won't catch us slipping, gotta nip it, nip it, nip it

Who you keeping in your company, nip it in the bud

Don't end up with a bunch of weeds, nip it in the bud

It all happened so suddenly

Subtly I was fumbling with enough grief to cover me

Didn't want no one to see, how he humbled me

Sunken deep to the floor, felt like I was underneath

That's the aftermath, sin is cool 'til the latter half

Best to play by all the rules included in the master plan

Hits keep coming back to back, visions like a cataract

Only light can change this dark, camera flash

We got to nip it, talking about the sin within

Many men living wickedly ignorant, it's ridiculous

Caught up in busyness, forgetting their witnesses, and mission is to build up these heavenly citizens, huh

We got to nip it, before we become victims

The enemies precision brings division, you better listen

If you don't live in the scriptures, you'll never feel conviction

Making it simple for the devil and his minions to finish him

You gotta stop before it starts to grow

Don't want sin to become a part of your soul

Keep a close eye to where your soul ties

If it ain't for Christ then it ain't for life

Just quit it, don't wait another minute

You won't catch us slipping, gotta nip it, nip it, nip it

Who you keeping in your company, nip it in the bud

Don't end up with a bunch of weeds, nip it in the bud

Devil been trying to divide by spewing lies to ruin lives

That's why you and I need to unite, and be unified when disputes arise

He'll skew the lines to the human eyes, that's why we gotta be choosing life

Soon to die, no suicide, but boy I'm bout to lose my mind!

They trying to lift demands on the food supply

Striving to lift my hands high to the crucified

It's time that Christians take a stand and we neutralize

When you see the lies expand, we 'bout to prune the vines

We got to nip it, every branch that bears no fruit

Word of God gripping in my hand, homie where's your tool?

You can talk all you want, but dude we ain't scared of you

Apply the truth, then we cut 'em off at the root

We got to nip it, I'm Popeye with the spinach

Grab your shears boy, we finna get it

We got to nip it, like Barney Fife from Andy Griffith

You gotta nip it, nip it, nip it, nip it, aye!

You gotta stop before it starts to grow

Don't want sin to become a part of your soul

Keep a close eye to where your soul ties

If it ain't for Christ then it ain't for life

Just quit it, don't wait another minute

You won't catch us slipping, gotta nip it, nip it, nip it

Who you keeping in your company, nip it in the bud

Don't end up with a bunch of weeds, nip it in the bud
