Evolution

Lyrics

INTRO: It's your boy B-scientific Here to talk Evolution with you He who began a good work in you will complete it till the day of Christ Reach Records 116 Turn My Life Up Yo Sho Baraka baby Tell em how you evolved VERSE 1: I walked the earth with a pained disdain for my birth Then I met Christ the Healer, gave a cure for the curse Time's before that, I didn't think it was worth it These Christians ain't worth the penny loafers they go to church in You might even catch em on the same block cursing If God's so good, why our life look worthless? Then I figured it out, why they weren't learning They didn't have the Spirit, so they didn't have discernment So what they called themselves doing, ain't called worship They don't love the Lord, all they care about is churching Last one in church, first one out First one in the liquor store, passing out But I saw a couple of men, who would live it out I was something like Thomas, I laid hands on my doubt Got my hands to the plough, not my hands to the gun I thought I was down, let me tell you what I was HOOK: I was young, I was dumb, I was just too cool I was loud and obnoxious, I was just that fool Loved money, loved lust, loved me, loved greed No limit to my conscience, anything to succeed I was selfish and conceited, loved rage, loved hate A wanna-be thug, a plain disgrace Your boy did a 180 cause the Lord had grace Sometimes I wanna go back, let me tell you why I cain't VERSE 2: I was a slave to the night-life, sex and the chronic The erk and jerk, mad dog, gin and tonic Then God pulled my heart strings, yeah He's harmonic Now I'm gonna live forever, I'm bionic Put death in a choke hold and slammed it like Onyx So we can slam dance in heaven, its ironic After years of research these scientists couldn't figure How I acted like an ape, but evolved from a sinner The company I kept loved greed and drank brew But now my boys love reading Greek and Hebrew Used to want a Rolls-Royce, but your boy stayed broke But I got my own Phantom, yeah the Holy Ghost It's in a 6-foot frame, with a chocolate candy paint On the highway to heaven, with a license plate SAINT I turn my life up, you can hear it through the subs I came a long way, let me tell you what I was VERSE 3: I've been bought with a price man, my life's not my own Fell flat on my face when I saw that throne Now I'm humble and I'm wiser, man I serve that Lord Stay sharp for my team man, pack that sword Heard about the crucifixion so my life's been changed I'm crossed-eye now, so I might look strange Got a hope, got a future, got a purpose in life Build men, send them out, man share that Christ Love my neighbor, love Yahweh with all my might Walk it out in the Spirit man, be that light Show love to my brothers, cause they act too tough Everybody needs love cause they ain't that rough Got fellowship, read man, hit those knees Hate sin, flee lust man, God be pleased I have to bear fruit since I claimed Him cuz I came a long way, let me tell you what I was
