[Da’ T.R.U.T.H. - J.I.F.E lyrics]
Opened up my eyes to the world and now I see
They got a lot of guns and they aimin' at me
'Cause they say I love the church
I don't care about the streets
That's so far from the truth
Why they lyin' on me?
And where am I supposed to be?
Tryin' to play my role
Stayin' faithful to the Gospel
Seen a lot of growth
Been a lot of testimonies
All around the globe and I ain't braggin'
That's from rappin' 'bout what God has spoke
It used to be a gift now it's criticized
If my heart is for the church
Why is this a crime?
Whatever happened to the days
When the mistress bride
Was speakin' life into the body?
I'm a bit surprised better recognize
Lookin' at the church got my
Eyes on the streets
Lookin' at the world with they eyes on me
What they talkin' 'bout
Huh? Jesus is for everybody
Huh? Jesus is for everybody
Lookin' at the poor, got my eyes on the rich
Lookin' at the trap boys and
The life of a prince
What they talkin' 'bout
Huh? Jesus is for everybody
Huh? Jesus is for everybody
Opened up my eyes to the church and now I see
Them automatic weapons and they aimin' at me
Say I'm preachin' to the choir
People dyin' in the streets
You'd be preachin' to 'em too
If you've seen 'em lately
No doubt is in my mind
It's makin' perfect sense
Am I doin' something wrong
Talkin' to the saints?
I'm just givin' 'em my all and
I'm in my own skin
While I'm buildin' up the body
Walkin' in His grace
But while I'm talkin' to the
Church I hope they overhear
We want the whole world to know we over here
I'm talk talk talkin' from the
Lawyers and the doctors
To the corners with the choppers
To the homies in the barber chair
My whole career
Lookin' at the church got my
Eyes on the streets
Lookin' at the world with they eyes on me
What they talkin' 'bout
Huh? Jesus is for everybody
Huh? Jesus is for everybody
Lookin' at the poor, got my eyes on the rich
Lookin' at the trap boys and
The life of a prince
What they talkin' 'bout
Huh? Jesus is for everybody
Huh? Jesus is for everybody
Just for a moment can I
Stand in my own defense?
I had a brief talk with Kanye West
Did it with Nick Cannon, only told my friends
That issue with Tech N9ne?
A little more complex
And I can tell you impressed
I'm talkin' with the stars
What good is that if I
Don't speak to security guards?
Something's wrong with my maturity
Charity's flawed 'Cause, I ain't speakin'
Man this whole family is lost
I guess the moral of the story is
Jesus Christ came for the notorious
And the saint
Grace for the less glorious, and the famed
Understand where the glory is
It's in His name
Lookin' at the church got my
Eyes on the streets
Lookin' at the world with they eyes on me
What they talkin' 'bout
Huh? Jesus is for everybody
Huh? Jesus is for everybody
Lookin' at the poor, got my eyes on the rich
Lookin' at the trap boys and
The life of a prince
What they talkin' 'bout
Huh? Jesus is for everybody
Huh? Jesus is for everybody
Jife, jife, jife jesus is for everybody
Blacks, whites, rich, poor
Church folks, the religious
No matter where you are
Whatever walk of life jesus is for you
They got a lot of guns and they aimin' at me
'Cause they say I love the church
I don't care about the streets
That's so far from the truth
Why they lyin' on me?
And where am I supposed to be?
Tryin' to play my role
Stayin' faithful to the Gospel
Seen a lot of growth
