Lecrae, FLAME - No Silence lyrics

My brothers over seas gettin' teased
For pronouncin' their faith
Gettin' duct taped and chased catching
Spit in the face
We runnin' the same race at a similar pace
Screamin' "Jesus is Lord"
Every time we step in the place
They holla naw in the dirty south
Naw in the Midwest
They don't want the truth
They don't dig that
So we shakin' all the dust off our shoes
If they don't receive the gospel and
They treat us like some fools what it do
Keep on pressin' even if they don't receive
That we was unbelievin' heathens
Til we met the word of Jesus
Now we preachin', catchin' beatings
That ain't keepin' us from speakin'
And no matter how they treat us
We repeat the need to seek Him
They won't beat us into shuttin' up
Naw we won't button up
Flame give it to ya hot Crae I'm a cut it up
Chop it chop it up and screw it we
Gone do it all in Christ name
Beat us into silence
Naw dawg ain't gone happen mayne

They won't beat us
(naw) into silence (never)
They won't beat us
(naw) into silence (never)
They won't beat us
(naw) into silence (never)
We got truth mayne

We will continue to preach
On the blocks in the hoods
The great gospel of peace
We wouldn't stop if we could
Cause the apostles believed
To the point of they death
So we gone follow they lead
And we gone walk in they steps
Just like the Savior explained
That we should shake off the dust
From our feet if they don't wanna receive us
It's all part of the plan
When persecution shows up
But we are ordered to stand
And be just like a soldier
So the spirit of fear it
Gets thrown in the trash
The Holy Spirit is here and gives
Us power for the task
So we gone spread the news both
The good and the bad
All at the same time just like Newsflash
(newsflash homie)
Don't feel lonely cause your
Family in Christ
Is standing as an example amp
And we're ready to fight
For the truth and it's cool
If we usin' the mic
But we gone rep Him til the death
With our lips and our life so let's go

Hard pressed in a mess still
Stressed tryin' to live it and we sinnin'
If we livin' to escape
All of the afflictions
Of sharin' Christ with the world
Of sharin' life with the world
The light of Christ is blazin'
Sheddin' light on the world

We haven't suffered to the point of
Sheddin' blood like our Savior
So we shouldn't be unfaithful like
Gomer was to Hosea
Yeah we don't lose heart it's not an option
We just continue to put in them
The truth of His doctrines

Watchin' Him Christ He's the
Perfecter of faith
So we turn and embrace any
Persecution that we may face

Yeah proclaim boldly
While at the same time remain holy
Teaching them to observe everything
That Jesus told me

Homie we solely concerned with
The mission of Christ
Unable to quiet us we gone
Be spittin' for Christ

The price that was paid
The nights in the grave
And the resurrection is our reflection
To not be afraid so lets go
