The Naked Truth
Me I'm a lyricist yet I'm a disciple first
I drink from the fountain of life so
its evident I never thirst
I murdered the old me so what you see
standing before you is the rebirth
truth is even tho salvation is paid for sin still hurts
we were born a livin curse but we heirs to the
kingdom of Heaven because we seek ye first
or should I say...if we would, it seems like
we stay on death row like Shug Knight
but Glory to God for the Holy Spirit that intercedes
and puts us right in front of that marvelous light
the world thinks we're outta our minds but
its clear they're outta sight worshiping their devils night
try with all our might we still so far away from his Glory
like we can't get right if we would just invest in life
and put to death those sinful desires and seek the sire
we claim to be on fire but its evident some of us
still haven't stepped out of that fiery furnace
I question sometimes did we just skip school when
Jesus was teaching because it seems
our credits of being Christ-like we haven't earned them
it's like Paul said the Lord's body we ain't discerning
lets truly be unashamed and rebuke nervousness
forget right or wrong lets seek righteousness
seek wisdom like Solomon did and maybe we could be spiritually enlightened
what's the naked truth? We neglect to accept our limitations
so Judgment from the Most High is what we're eternally facing
the cross itself should have been enough persuasion
so lets lift up the name of the King who's already elevated
