Bryann T - Who Told You lyrics

Man I wish someone woulda told me
The truth a long time ago
Nobody sat me down and said "Look
This ain't that and that ain't this
I was deceived for so long
It's only right that I expose all
This deception in the might name of Jesus
Carry-on young soldier!

Who told you gangstas go to Heaven? (huh?)
Who told you money make you real? (tell me)
Who told you pistols make you tough?
And you don't see all the
Dead bodies on the field?
Who said that mercy's for the weak?
Who said forgiveness is for chumps?
They say a coward dies a thousand deaths
A soldier dies but once
And they mourn you for a week and
They forget you in a month
Who told you God doesn't exist?
Who told you God was just a myth?
Who planted seeds of disbelief?
Inside your mind, so you could trip
Who told you Jesus doesn't love you?
Who said you couldn't be forgiven?
Do you not know how much He loves you?
(listen) do you not know the King has risen?
Who told you Christian rappers' wack?
Whoever said that man was wack
This truth'll hit you harder
Knock you flat down on your back
Who told you Christian rappers' wack?
Whoever said that man was wack
The truth'll hit you so hard
It knock you flat down on your back
Two things either happen
One, you gon' get mad
And hate me for correcting you
For pointing out what's bad or two
You get convicted and cry out because you sad
And ask God to forgive you
For the trespasses you had
You either run to Him or run from Him
And I just pray you come to Him
Put down all your blunts and
Guns and you say "Lord
I'm done with this!"
You run to Him or run from Him
I just pray you come to Him
Put down all your blunts and
Guns and you say "Lord
I'm done with this!"
Everything they told me was a lie
And man I know that now
It's only right we hit the streets
And we expose that now
Dirty devil, dirty devil shoulda killed me
Holy Spirit, Holy Spirit come and seal me
Fill me with new strength again
Now I'm feeling new inside
Lord, I abide in You and
Follow You where You abide
Fill me with new strength again
Now I'm feeling new inside
Lord, I abide in You and
Follow You where You abide
And I confide in You with confidence, my Lord
Cuz greater is He who lives in me
Than he who's of this world, aye
I confide in you with confidence, my Lord
Greater is He who lives in me
Than he who's of this world
Who told you God couldn't be trusted?
I'm trynna tell you you can trust Him
He loves you deeply, please believe me
He hates to see His children suffering
See, I don't know what all they told you
And I don't even know who told
I just know that He's the
Answer, He gives hope, man, to the hopeless
I don't know what all they told you
And I don't even know who told
I just know that Christ's the answer, He
Gives hope, man, to the hopeless, yeah
Who told you?
