Trip Lee - We Told Em lyrics

rate me

<i>[Verse 1:]</i>

We like to talk a lot, about how we running this Christian race

But then when it comes time to walk it out, nah we don't never want to get in place

We don't even know what it's all about, there's a problem going on with the saints

In church Sunday, but that's all we got, and the rest of the world gon miss His grace

We see them in the parking lot, we tell them all their sinners and they're missing Christ

We got a couple scriptures we start to drop, but we got to be a witness, got to live that life

But nah we just talking stuff, we off in the cut, when it comes time to shine His light

But we got to rep the cross and His blood, got to walk in love,

Got to show cats the mind of Christ

We told them, that we this and that, we live and act how all should

Now let's show them that these Christian cats ain't really wack, it's all good

We wildin', now they think of Christians, think we tripping that ain't cool

We foul and, now they think He's missing, bro let's show them what it do

<i>[Hook:]</i>

If we gon get it for the Lord, then we gotta get on one accord

It's time we pick up all our swords, let's show em we Christians

If we gon get it for the Lord, then we gotta get on one accord

We told em we Christians, now let's show em we Christians

<i>[Verse 2:]</i>

They don't take us serious even though we be talking a good game

They poke fun and they jeer at us, probably 'cause we don't walk how we should man

Nah they ain't feeling us, no distinction we just looking the same

It makes me furious, we don't rep Him as much as we could man

We tell them not to curse, and to come with the church where Jesus at

So some got a lot of words, but we ain't never got no deeds to match

We avoid the blocks and curbs, but we try to tell them where to meet us at

Thousands of members inside to work, but it ain't nobody on the street with cats

We told them, that they welcome, that we love them and we filled with joy

Let show them, that we willing to come to they block where cats be killing boys

We slacking, we ain't showing love, we act like we can't give them truth

Where's action, they don't know His love, let's show them that we living proof

<i>[Hook]</i>

<i>[Verse 3:]</i>

We like to brag to cats, bout how we bought by the God who saves

And how He snatches cats, by the cross and He gets them out the grave

We got brains that's packed with facts, bout Him who was sent to the cross and raised

His Word is action packed, with works and words all about His name

So we know that's He great, but we don't reflect Him well

So when we told em that He saves, it was hard for them to tell

So it's time to live this thing, in light of the God who reigns

Let's try not to cause Him pain, show them a pic of the God who came
