8.He Lives


Ye-ye-ye-yep, yes He's Alive From the dark to the light, sunrise
Everybody who be driven they thinkin' that He's gone Gonna be in
for a big surprise Walla, uh huh, right there before they eyes
He'll be back, ain't cut no slack for the cats who try to hide
Lies; that's what they say I drop, cats so lost Caught up with
they-selves but they rebel Yes sir they gon' be shocked-shock,
clear

They dead now, can't live just on that bread, naw I chokehold
what He said now I'm His pupil yes no retina He done preached it
from the mountain and three thousand all believed it And He
called me on the campus, and I answered and received Him From
the witnesses that seen Him, to the heathens who not preach Him
The proof is in the change; unashamed, that's how we reach em'
And so I stand up, I will never stand down Worship with my hands
up, humbled by Him, man down Yes sir, that is it, I will never
call it quits Pressin' on, that's how I know I'm His and that He
lives

He lives I-I-I am so glad He lives Might say that He died, but
He rose again R-r-rose again, He's alive And now that I'm dead
to my sin In me is a place He can live I'll serve Him until He
comes back again B-b-b-back again, He's alive I'll tell em'
that, I'll tell em' that He lives

What's that gotta do with me, huh? I'm just tryna stack my bread
I ain't bother nobody or robbin' nobody like I done just got out
the feds I heard what the preacher done said (what's that?) That
Jesus popped outta the grave But what does that have to do with
me and all of these bills that gotta get paid? And all of these
mouths I gotta feed? Plus my old lady complainin' I'm tryna live
kinfolk, although I see what you sayin'

But if you see what I'm sayin', then you would know it is Truth,
positive that the God man really is, who He say He is Took on
human flesh and hit the Earth Lived the perfect life, first,
then He took that crucifix Then He resurrected; that validated
that He is God Did you say Jesus is God? Yes I said Jesus is
God! So, what that means is, all, human beings is His creation,
we should praise Him for His patience then repent All you gotta
do now just confess Turn from your sin put your soul to rest He
resurrected, you get forgiveness Give Him your all and nothing
less

He lives I-I-I am so glad He lives Might say that He died, but
He rose again R-r-rose again, He's alive And now that I'm dead
to my sin In me is a place He can live I'll serve Him until He
comes back again B-b-b-back again, He's alive I'll tell em'
that, I'll tell em' that He lives

Three days... Just enough to make these people say He gone He
wrong, He on His own, He left us here, we all alone But naw...
You got it twisted Clear like the sky but I guess you missed it
But we ain't done yet, 'til there ain't none left, be patient,
hope you listen Cause when He touch down, no replay You should
run now, no relay Who can turn down, what He say? Man I'm turned
up Know He lay out the grave, that's the reason I am saved

Not for rules so I behave, but so I can be remade In His image,
I am finished, period, minus the sentence Through repentance in
an instant I'm so helped, call it Christian Cause He lived, I
know that's real You sayin' prove it, peep the movement
Unashamed 'til the end, I'll tell em' that He lives

He lives I-I-I am so glad He lives Might say that He died, but
He rose again R-r-rose again, He's alive And now that I'm dead
to my sin In me is a place He can live I'll serve Him until He
comes back again B-b-b-back again, He's alive I'll tell em'
that, I'll tell em' that He lives

I'll tell em' that, I'll tell em' that I'll tell em' that He
I'll tell em' that, I'll tell em' that, I'll tell em' that He
lives I'll tell em' that He died, I'll tell em' that He rose,
I'll tell em' that, I'll tell em' that, I'll tell em' that He
lives
