[Verse One]
|
As I rightly divide, between truth and lies
|
I can present with proof how He knew these guys
|
Were goin' to cry on Him, spit on Him and gonna lie on Him
|
Third day from layin' away was gonna rise on them
|
Took His righteousness purged my sin
|
Blood drippin' from the cross as He urges men
|
Some servin' Him, puttin' position to come and bird with Him
|
I mean to fly, most definitely want to fly
|
If I draw nigh to Him He'll draw nigh to me
|
I see God through Him that d-e-a-t-h settin' me
|
Straight from all angles, givin' charge to all angels the star spangled
|
Banner doesn't have anything on Hosanna
|
Cause the manner, in which He does things for His offspring
|
As awesome as it seems, it's right and good
|
Cause I'm flossin' the King tonight in 'hoods
|
|
[Chorus]
|
Brothers in the front we don't stunt cause we livin' righteous
|
Homies on my left ain't no death cause we livin' righteous
|
Shorties in the back we don't slack cause we livin' righteous
|
Righteous livin' righteous livin'
|
Homies on my right we alright cause we livin' righteous
|
Brothers in the front we don't stunt cause we livin' righteous
|
Shorties on my left ain't no death cause we livin' righteous
|
Righteous livin' righteous livin'
|
|
[Verse Two]
|
First I was unclean, it was so dark I was unseen
|
Now my light beams, runnin' to Christ or it might seem
|
That I might cling, to the righteousness of the King
|
Or I might fiend, for the dream of the bigger things
|
Cause the earth is His, castin' in my cares cause my hurt is His
|
Writin' my songs and my verse is His
|
The body of Christ or the church is His
|
I search the Scriptures of God to see what my purpose is
|
To give Him glory now I recognize, I testified
|
Then I blessed the God that rectified
|
My wickedness when I was petrified, edified
|
The body of Christ for them kingdom lies
|
Or kingdom livin' all of us Christians are forgiven for that awful livin'
|
To the beginners don't assemble yourself with the sinners
|
All of us and Jesus are winners, now I look right
|
Cause of the blood now I look white
|
I'm goin' higher in Christ so now I book flight
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
[Verse Three]
|
All of a sudden His righteousness is like a lifestyle
|
Callin' my brothers come outta strugglin' to Christ now
|
All of you cluckers put down the drugs and throw the pipe down
|
Get rid of the sinful livin' and come into life now
|
Take a look at the bigger picture and see mistakes made
|
Be a witness for Christians and see Christ has the way made
|
Way paved, the daybreak bru I stay saved
|
My wave praise, we set free from them slave days
|
Fightin' with givin', when you can be ignited and get righteous livin'
|
And right with God I take a look back into history
|
I'm seein' the death no longer a mystery
|
Seein' Him resurrect, my righteousness is that of a filthy rag
|
My righteousness is that of a filthy rag
|
My righteousness is that of a filthy rag
|
I confess I was guilty Dad
|
But then you cleansed me
|
