The Lyrics
Jesus Christ,
Real name, no gimmicks,
Changed every human's life and He isn't even finished,
That's cuz He's ever-livin',
He's been here through all the Bible and history,
Dealin' with the Devil's business,
He's got the pharoses mad at Him,
Because He chewed up their words and spat them back at them,
Disciples, his close 12 men, did,
Not even know who He was until He ascended,
Spread the story to the world, the Jews and Japanese,
And save all of the European gen-T-I-L-Es,
Do I still sin?
The way we say it around my way, "fo' sho!",
So I need him mo',
Than my food and my clothes,
"Cuz "You fed Me when I was hungry and when I was naked, you clothed Me",
Big things, pray "cuz you owe to him,
And, if you rap, spit him a flow to him,
He's here,
That's why I'm writin' fo',
His name,
The name's Jesus Christ!
"I promise, you will join Me today in Paradise",
So He came to the world,
Real name, no gimmicks,
Asked me to live it,
That's why all of me's fo',
His name,
The name's Jesus Christ!
"Blessed are those who're persecuted because they do what is right",
So He came to the world,
Real name, no gimmicks,
Asked me to live it,
That's why I'm livin' fo',
It didn't take much,
He claimed to be God (BAM!!),
Scowls and death-plots, my man,
The pharoses greeted Him with sealed minds,
With no sense of time, what treasure they did not find,
Who gave y'all life?
Who forgave vice?
Who sees our bads but is good enough Himself to just keep lovin'?
Watches us all the time from up above, "n,
Left his spirit so we fear nothin',
"There are demons among us?",
Please believe that there's no thing on the world,
Not life, death, angels, principalities, things to come or control,
Can separate us from the only One,
Alpha and Omega, I Am, Jehovah-Shalom,
Whether or not you try to kill or mock me,
I will positively not flee,
I'm staindin' here like Rocky,
Because I've got an army of angels behind me,
So if you want me, you know where to find me,
That's why I'm writin' fo',
His name,
The name's Jesus Christ!
"I promise, you will join Me today in Paradise",
So He came to the world,
Real name, no gimmicks,
Asked me to live it,
That's why all of me's fo',
His name,
The name's Jesus Christ!
"Blessed are those who're persecuted because they do what is right",
So He came to the world,
Real name, no gimmicks,
Asked me to live it,
That's why I'm livin' fo',
I still sin right now,
But now I've got the Son,
So Satan,
Best to run,
"Cuz when I pray,
God listens to what I say,
And (whoa!),
Sometimes he even gets back to me,
The only way that I can live all of my days,
Is using my talents for constant praise,
God gave me two,
I give him back four,
And who knows, one day he may trust me with more,
"Truly, truly, one thing I say to you,
He who believes in Me will also do the works that I do.",
*Chiggi* If it's your writin',
Let Christ up in yo' rhymes,
*Chiggi* If day or night,
Give Christ some of yo' time,
I'm sorry, but I get a bit excited,
When I'm talking "bout the righteous,
And I don't bother to hide it,
I don't try to fight it, I'll tell,
He broke through my shell,
Saved me from Hell,
That's why I'm writin' fo',
His name,
The name's Jesus Christ!
"I promise, you will join Me today in Paradise",
So He came to the world,
Real name, no gimmicks,
Asked me to live it,
That's why all of me's fo',
His name,
The name's Jesus Christ!
"Blessed are those who're persecuted because they do what is right",
So He came to the world,
Real name, no gimmicks,
Asked me to live it,
That's why I'm livin' fo',
His name.
