Break it Down (1 Corinthians)

Lyrics

[VERSE 1] Let me let me tell you bout my homeboy CORey This the first verse of the very first story Call it the first letter, you can call it whateva Long as you hear the truth and leave surer than eva CORey's a new believer actin like he's in a gang Runnin round sayin his church is the greatest thang Won't check a sermon unless it's his bishop's name It seems he forgot to keep Jesus the main thang Cause bishop ain't raise up after three days up He ain't take your case up offerin you his grace huh But CORey stay divided all of the time Not Christ but a man that he's standin behind [Hook] I got this little letter, I'm tryna break it down So you can hear the truth in the sound Division, a whole lot of sin I can't forget the problems of people livin within [Verse 2] I got this little letter, I'm tryna break it down But let me tell you CORey backround He started off crazy, party's full of shawtys Religious ceremonies where people was gettin naughty But all that changed, the truth of God reigned The Gospel spread within him like viruses in his veins But mayne even though his heart's rearranged He found himself caught up in some of his old ways He layin up with women and sinnin was gettin strange He thought the more he sinned the more Jesus was pleased to save He thought cause he accepted his brother touchin his mother That he was spiritual cause he let em get with each other And CORey had beef with another in the faith Instead of workin through it they opened a court case A slap to the face in the God who gives grace Now CORey's outta place tryna carry his own weight [Verse 3] Now CORey got married, but everywhere he turned He sees lust burn and women waitin to serve him And CORey's learnin, Satan wishes to turn him Away from his wife, to satisfy all his yearnings Divorce ain't legitimate if both are regenerate What God put together let nobody put a split in it See that ain't the end of it, he sought his own benefit He would do the things that his friends saw as forbiddin it Though it was no sin in it his homies they was ignorant They were made weak cause his liberty was the hindrance Unlike an apostle no concern for the gospel No denying his rights nah homie wasn't that thoughtful
