PHANATIK - Snitch lyrics

rate me

What’s up ya’ll? Everybody on their “STOP SNITCHING” game

I’m about to break the hood’s rules,

just to bring the hood some good news

I gotta put a couple of people on blast, (like who?)

My culture, myself, then I’mma blast this good news

about Jesus Christ, listen…

With God as my witness, I am God’s witness

If I did not spit this, then nature would talk

Rocks crying out, trees swaying, the ocean waves,

But why should praise take the nature walk

When I’m right here and I’m ready, able, and willing

I’m steady, stable, and chillin’ in his presence

At a table in the wilderness

Far from the fables of the epics of Gilgamesh

Faithful, instilled in us the steps to make this pilgrimage

Now I know when I’m off now,

When I can see how my world was totally off-balance

From following, following after satan,

Were lost with no source of navigation

We chase what we want then our own hearts stomp us

Like the arrow on Captain Jack Sparrow’s compass

Were full of foolishness and focused on getting more

These dudes is doing this show you what it’s hittin’ for

(Chorus)

We gonna get the Truth, then get it to you,

Then, take the stand, let it do what it do (yeah, c’mon and let it do what it do)

Why won’t you let the Truth (let the Truth) do what it do

We gonna get the Truth, then get it to you,

Then, take the stand, let it do what it do

While I take the stand and raise my hand

And place my hand on this book right here

I was sworn to tell the Truth, the whole Truth and nothing but

In my buttoned up suit, but I refuse to button up

Shoes shod with the good news (gazoontight)

You won’t sneeze but you might snooze and lose out on this good vibe

The hood tried to raise me as a kid

Thinking back to the days of the mid-to-late eighties when I lived

Sorta crazy and I did what I wanted, take chances

The Lord cut in on my dance and saved me from a bid

Not just from a bid in jail but from a bed in hell

So now I bid farewell to the life without Him

Since He did it well, well now I get to tell

Of His goodness in the hood to all the heads that doubt Him

I’m not just a son I’m also saved by the same One

Who saves us from sin that’s why we let Him

Take stage front and center

That’s why I’m glad He’s coming to enter dudes like you and me

That’s why I refuse to be censored

(Chorus)

Allow me to speak on His benevolence and goodness

Cause next to Him even Bill Gates is hood rich

And stingy beyond belief, penny-pinch with his funds

Cause even though he sponsors charities look at what the Father shares with even enemies

Who stand to oppose Him and don’t believe His hand upholds them

The grand total of grace is amazing

Adding on top of Adams sin everyone who’s sinned since then

Gets the sense to see how long He’s been patiently waiting

In the meantime, He lets His Son’s beam shine down on the ground around the just and unjust alike

And they both get the rain that sustains them under the aim

He gains glory or not He still sustaining their life

Beyond His common grace is the kinda God that laces

His real children with banging building blocks for success

The first of all His good gifts is when He lets us share

In the inheritance of an eternal life without death

So ladies and gents of the jury watch how you judge Jesus

Cause when you see Him He’s gonna judge us accordingly

That’s why I can’t care if what I testify bothers

Cause if I deny Him, He’ll deny me before the Father

(Chorus)
