Lyrics
Take me back to the truth
Back to the days lied to in my youth
Never looked for God now I reestablish my roots
Standing on the rock now I'm preaching Jesus the truth
Yeshua the Way
Now you see the love as the fruit
Once upon a time a homie laid his life for the loot
Lookin' to come up and was ended when bangers would shoot
I used to think the way to living live was just a hustle
Either that or you graduate when papers shuffle
Get stuck on a mindset that marriage is foul
And you should hit numbers of women before you settle down
Now I see the light bow ya head put hands to the plow
Hearin' screams around me but I can't look back now
Word
Serve the King give no mind to what you heard
Live a life seek and find no hatred in His word
Besides if I hated you then I'd have to hate me
But my sin was forgiven so I share what God gave me
That's grace homie message of hope message of love
Messianic prophecies fulfilled that came from above
Homie I come with the same Spirit that came as a dove
Bow down to the One who Is before Abraham was
Take me back to the truth back to the days lied to in my youth
Never looked for God now I reestablish my roots
Standing on the rock now preaching Jesus the truth
Yeshua the Way
Yeah
Straight from the days of spittin' bars on the bus
Well you know they wasn't bars but to me they was tough
All the homies that sat around would tell me I suck
Regardless I never went home and felt like I had enough
But you know pops came through and saw the potential
Told me I had the chance to be something real no confidential
He said "Son a humble beginning is too essential. How you think we came from apartments to residential?"
Open a new chapter pick up your book
Heed the words and hope you'll never wise up from a hook
And I ain't talking a song better grow up strong
Stand on your own two feet because this world is a storm
Hold onto God and pray that your faith is unshakable unmistakable and know that His word is unchangeable
And He ain't gon' force it his grace is invitational
Guarantee you trust on Him He'll make you capable
