[00:12.47] |
Let me tell you how this all came to be |
[00:14.99] |
I was sittin' diggin' in the word Matthew 23 |
[00:17.81] |
I'm thinking this is it finally victory |
[00:20.38] |
Then the Holy Spirit hit quick convicted me |
[00:23.36] |
|
[00:24.09] |
Could it be it's just all hypocrisy |
[00:26.17] |
|
[00:26.79] |
I'm a modern day pharisee quite possibly |
[00:29.18] |
|
[00:30.02] |
Tell me what's the use if I know the law |
[00:33.06] |
But the true living God I never knew at all |
[00:35.52] |
|
[00:36.72] |
I got to practice what I preach |
[00:38.36] |
|
[00:39.00] |
It don't matter what I'm saying on these beats |
[00:41.20] |
|
[00:41.89] |
In the church or when I'm on the streets |
[00:44.55] |
Tell me what's the use if I don't practice what I preach |
[00:47.62] |
If that's the case I should expect the worst |
[00:49.90] |
|
[00:50.45] |
No surprise why the word would reject the church |
[00:52.99] |
|
[00:53.59] |
I mean why would you respect my turf |
[00:56.33] |
If I don't comply myself and resect it first |
[00:58.93] |
|
[00:59.65] |
Brothers and sisters in Christ this is a wake up call |
[01:02.41] |
To myself included I can relate to y'all |
[01:05.02] |
|
[01:05.53] |
Right now is the time I got to start living it |
[01:08.04] |
|
[01:08.56] |
The last thing I want to be is a hypocrite |
[01:11.19] |
|
[01:12.29] |
I got to practice what I preach |
[01:13.79] |
|
[01:14.57] |
It don't matter what I'm saying on these beats |
[01:16.42] |
|
[01:17.46] |
In the church or when I'm on the streets |
[01:20.13] |
Tell me what's the use if |
[01:21.50] |
I don't practice what I preach |
[01:22.86] |
|
[01:23.44] |
Make no mistakes it's a must that I be honest y'all |
[01:26.44] |
What's in the dark shall come to |
[01:27.75] |
Light that's a promise y'all |
[01:29.30] |
I know what someone say it |
[01:30.53] |
Ain't no surprise to me |
[01:31.70] |
|
[01:32.32] |
"I ain't a Christian so none of this applies to me" |
[01:34.89] |
|
[01:35.49] |
Indeed that's why off and from the start |
[01:37.92] |
I sincerely pray THE LORD will soften up your heart |
[01:40.78] |
Until then beware of any false prophets |
[01:43.06] |
|
[01:43.65] |
Vicious wolves disguised as sheep |
[01:45.82] |
That look harmless |
[01:46.46] |
|
[01:47.08] |
Don't be fooled before you follow suit |
[01:49.82] |
I mean really take a look and recognize |
[01:51.39] |
Them by their fruit |
[01:52.30] |
|
[01:52.82] |
The good news is even as I'm writing this |
[01:55.85] |
I realize only faith brings forth righteousness |
[01:58.17] |
|
[01:58.88] |
Yet I can't neglect how I live and behave |
[02:01.30] |
Cause faith without works will only |
[02:02.96] |
End up in the grave |
[02:03.97] |
|
[02:04.90] |
Right nows the time we got to start living it |
[02:07.19] |
|
[02:07.75] |
The last the you want to be is a hypocrite |
[02:10.18] |
|
[02:11.69] |
We got to practice what I preach |
[02:13.06] |
|
[02:14.39] |
We got to practice what I preach |
[02:16.13] |
|
[02:16.83] |
In the church or when I'm on the streets |
[02:18.73] |
|
[02:19.36] |
Tell me what's the use if |
[02:20.48] |
I don't practice what I preach |
[02:22.30] |
Come on put yours hands up if you got to stand |
[02:24.60] |
|
[02:25.40] |
This hypocrisy it's got to stop it's time to man up |
[02:28.37] |
|
[02:30.91] |
I said this hypocrisy it's got to stop |
[02:33.17] |
It's time to it's time to |
[02:34.42] |
Come on put yours hands up |
[02:35.55] |
If you got to stand up |
[02:37.29] |
This hypocrisy it's got to stop it's time to man up |
[02:39.67] |
|
[02:42.81] |
I said this hypocrisy it's got to stop it's time to time |
