Lyrics

[Hook: T.R.U.-L.I.F.E.] We all want to rise We surely want to fly Y'all know we want to try to live it up until we die You know we gon' expire But before it is your time You got a clue about what you gon' do with this part of your life? [Verse 1: T.R.U.-L.I.F.E.] Father forgive me I'm a sinner And I need You at the center of my heart Cause that's where it all starts And I remember when I entered Your presence You opened arms and loved me tender Told me to observe Your word So I can learn surrender Without surrender it's the cold shoulder like it's winter Cause Your Son was stabbed, dragged Beaten, battered and injured Before we were believers He was striped like a zebra So we could rise like a fee But instead of dying a heathen So for Him I get deeper Cause life is grim like the reaper The sin price will not get cheaper And death he strikes like a cheetah So you best to believe a Brother that tells you a .. [Verse 2: T.R.U.-L.I.F.E.] Misses and Misters This world will trick ya It'll pretzel twist ya Have you thinkin' that you are when ya not I bring the Scriptures What better way to get you focused in on the picture Then to contrast and ask which life you think is the richer There's a dude who's about his paper Some straight, some out of cake But stay out his way Cause he's tryin' to get back to Jamaica When asked about his dirty dealings He called me a hater I said, look brother I hate the game, son I don't hate the playa He says, I don't bother nobody So me and God we just prolly need to have a chat How can He be found like the party Another example of one who's had it with shine But only has samples of life in his mind, it's time [Verse 3: T.R.U.-L.I.F.E.] There's another too This brother is never rude His jokes are never shrewd His comments are never lewd And this dude Grinds on a 3-2-11 Sometimes seven days a week And speaks about how he's gone meet up in heaven He's not a goody two-shoes A bible-based truth dude Looks to be a light Who do you think this dude is glued too? No sex before marriage No kiss, no baby, no carriage No if's, no maybe, won't have it One day this lady get karats He understand the way relationships are 'posed to happen So I ask him why not chase the silver, gold or platinum Maybe back then But now it's new reaction New walk, new talk New mind and you'll find, new time
