Da’ T.R.U.T.H., The Cross Movement, Phanatik, John Wells - The Jesus Anthem lyrics

Hey, it's 5 in the morning (Whoo)
The young boy ready to get in here (hahaha)
TRUTH, CM, Hey you grown now (get it) yea

We do missions for Christ Jesus
And we don't need to rock suit's
Cause we can preach the Gospel
In our wife beaters
White sneakers, striped Adidas
Like to speak the Truth
The Good News to hood dudes
Or to whomever's listening
Cause every listener ain't grow up a thug and
Everybody ain't been popped with a slug
Matter of fact, matter fact
Most of y'all probably grew up just like me
You ain't never put your lips to a drug
Probably grew up pretty normal
Probably grew up in a warm home
You ain't never grow up strapped
Having to scrap over wardrobes


And you ain't never been the
Type to like cornrows
Many y'all grew up with pretty decent morals
And you were taught that all
Roads lead to Him
That's why it sounds so crazy when we
Be like "Yo, believe in Him, "
(breath) breathe again seek and you'll find
The past is repeating it'self it's
Like the streets on rewind
Move forward ain't you sick of the boredom
Ain't you sick of the grind
The brick of mortar
Without surely being assured
Of where you going when you die
We can provide you with truth
Young dudes serving God in our youth
And it's like
They got questions man, He got answers
You can trust Him man or take chances
You can trust Him now or throw tantrums
If you trust him, rally around this Anthem
Jesus

He is no fool who gives what he can't
Keep to gain what he could never loose
Jim Elliot's rule him he'll never fool
His food to do the will of Him who
Sent Him until His belly was full
Now that's fuel for the fire used to inspire
You to inquire about the Truth
But there's a liar cookin' up a plot
Cookin' up a pot of lies
Pushing up those dollar signs
Who connects the dots on them doted lines
I can get signed if I sign right here
Nah took my career and hang glided off the
Side of a mountain amounted to nothing
Accept the One that I'm trustin' not doubtin'
Like Thomas but clutchin' His promises
Hold on, what the problem is?
You don't know what time it is
Hunting those shiny designer bondages
While moms and kids still
Struggle in the hood
Juggling the jobs poppa trying to
Stop smuggling the goods
I could've still been the one trying to
Be persistent and beat the system
But the Lord led me to seek His wisdom
Was secret and hidden but now all men can
See what was written and be forgiven
And get the instructions we need for livin'

Now every designer ain't a Gabanna
And every material girl ain't a Madonna
But, if every design got a designer
Before you start chattin' on it
When it come to creation God
Got a patent on it
Involuntary heart beat, automated lungs
Thoughtless eye blinks
Taste buds on the tongue
Body's immune system fighting things that
Try to damage it
Sleep, digestion, even waste management
Who gets the credit, who takes it all
Never big bang, never apes, never Neanderthal
It's foolish to think it's all coincidental
I know it's touchy I'll keep it gentle
50 just sat in a house
Without thinking disses for Jah just
Ran out his mouth
Ain't it bug how Timbs are made
That sole is a natural
Outgrowth from the suede
I know it sound crazy but while
You was sleep a whole bottle
Of Remy seeped in your pores and
Ended up in your gut
And that bling in your ice
Is cuz little men live
On the inside and yo they
Just shinin' they lights
If you believe this and would teach
It to your sons and daughters
Get a MRI done on your headquarters
This little exercise is to un-anesthetize
And wake up man to the
Glory that's forever Gods
Not to wake up and quickly fall back asleep
But to wake up and follow
Christ like His sheep
Cause by Him and for Him things were created
And can't be properly questioned or debated
And it's Truth to the seeking
Soul who can stand it
And now understands why they
Exist on the planet
