Shai Linne - Christ Crucified lyrics
[Shai Linne - Christ Crucified lyrics]
In this land of do or die
Where innocent bystanders lose their lives
You do what you gotta do just to survive
What's the answer? Christ crucified
Where brutal guys abuse their wives
Cats who seem to have it all commit suicide
Check your heart- what you
Trusting in? You decide
What's the answer? Christ crucified
To speak the truth is my main aim
And I don't mind saying the same things
We live in strange days and
Cats are trying to maintain
While sin holds the world prisoner
Like a chain gang if you don't believe me
How do you explain pain?
Soon it's gonna rain flames you
Can't play the blame game
You're on the highway to hell
You'd better change lanes
‘Cause you'll only gain strain and
Your fame won't remain it's plain
Salvation through any other name is lame
I can't trip off somebody
Saying "He's offending me"
I see the enemy- plus the
World needs the remedy
And I don't wanna dis you just
Tryin' to confront the issue
‘Cause everyday
Shells from guns rip through stomach tissue
Street soldiers toke spliffs and hold pistols
They got smoked- or take short
Cuts like cliff notes
Politicians might slit throats to get votes
While rich folks with jokes sniff
Coke on big boats
I spit quotes that make you sense
Your need for the Lord
And I don't seek your applause
Cause He's my reward
Spiritual hijacker- don't have to pack
A nine in line
With the Divine Mastermind- crash
Ya like a linebacker
Plus, there's a time factor
Tomorrow's not promised
You borrow God's homage? You're
Just a blind actor
Life is fierce and dark- heed
The pull of the truth
Christ can pierce your heart
Even through your bulletproof
In this land of do or die
Where innocent bystanders lose their lives
You do what you gotta do just to survive
What's the answer? Christ crucified
Where brutal guys abuse their wives
Cats who seem to have it all commit suicide
Check your heart- what you
Trusting in? You decide
What's the answer? Christ crucified
Phat sacks dull brains in the Alley of Fears
Backpacks full of pain in the Valley of Tears
You rallied for years
Trying to climb the Mountain
Of Blood and Sweat
Just to get drowned in the Flood of Regrets
Hey yo, i've been through it- everyday
Under the influence
Or should I say "SINfluence"
It started in the garden when
We departed from our Sovereign
Now we're darkened in our hearts and
We're starving for a pardon
The enemy is within- no one's protected
Not one area of society is unaffected
Which way is up
When authorities are corrupt?
Mandatory minimums lock minorities up
But, it's not about conspiracy
Theories- you're spiritually weary
Your future appears to be eerie
You hearing me clearly?
Straight from the frying pan
Into eternal fire- the fate of every dying
Man who spurns Messiah!
In this land of do or die
Where innocent bystanders lose their lives
You do what you gotta do just to survive
What's the answer? Christ crucified
Where brutal guys abuse their wives
Cats who seem to have it all commit suicide
Check your heart- what you
Trusting in? You decide
What's the answer? Christ crucified
When I say "Trust in Jesus", cats
Look at me like I'm crazy, yet
This song is your "wake-up show"
Like Sway and Tech
‘Cause sin's problem is much
Greater than human hurts
You owe a debt to the Creator of the universe
And trust me son
He'll do much more than dial your number
The Lord is gonna track you
Down like a bounty hunter on judgment day
Coppin' pleas ain't gonna work
‘Cause God is like a shower drain
He sees all your dirt
The evil you do with your devious crew
You're rotten to the core
He's knocking at your door
Your weed and your brew
The freaks that you screw
You're shopping at the store you should
Be dropping to the floor
If you make it your business
To pray for forgiveness
The Savior of misfit's will take
You from His hit list
But say you dismiss this
It shows you're misled
‘Cause like "The 6th Sense" you don't
Even know that you're dead
In this land of do or die
Where innocent bystanders lose their lives
You do what you gotta do just to survive
What's the answer? Christ crucified
Where brutal guys abuse their wives
Cats who seem to have it all commit suicide
Check your heart- what you
Trusting in? You decide
What's the answer? Christ crucified
Where innocent bystanders lose their lives
You do what you gotta do just to survive
What's the answer? Christ crucified
Where brutal guys abuse their wives
Cats who seem to have it all commit suicide
Check your heart- what you
Trusting in? You decide
What's the answer? Christ crucified
To speak the truth is my main aim
And I don't mind saying the same things
