[Intro:]
|
Yeah
|
Ay wat it do
|
It's ya boy Trip Lee man
|
Yeah you can ride to this
|
Ay man but while you ridin to it
|
Listen to the words homie
|
Yeah we can't just go through life chillin man
|
We gotta stop and examine ourselves
|
Let me tell you what I'm sayin
|
|
[Vesre 1:]
|
Yeah we was born sinners man, dead in the flesh
|
Unfamiliar with the Lord's livin man, He bled to the death
|
But we love our sin instead of Him, we fans of the flesh
|
If you think I'm lyin man, put a man to the test
|
We all full of lies, full of pride, full of dirty lust
|
And we put our lives ahead of God's Word we should trust
|
We all knew it was a dude above who made everything
|
But we run a way, love our ways, and never gave Him praise
|
But for some of us He made a way up out of this dilemma
|
He sent His Son, and he was strung out for wicked sinners
|
Now all we gotta do is trust upon the righteousness of Christ
|
And He got something new for us (What?), the righteousness of Christ
|
You may believe it man, but have you trusted in Him yet?
|
And realized your sinful life will thrust you into death?
|
And that you need Him cause in the flesh man is fadin
|
Time for self examination like you was the Dr and the patient
|
|
[Hook:]
|
We gotta look ourselves over
|
Have we standing with Jehovah
|
He's the man and He can hold us
|
You'll be standing as His soldier
|
It's time for self examination, we need a self examination
|
It's time for self examination, we need a self examination man
|
What are lives look like
|
Cause fo real we should fight
|
To enjoy lifting Christ
|
And to shine His good light
|
It's time for self examination, we need a self examination
|
It's time for self examination, we need a self examination man
|
|
[Verse 2:]
|
A lot of us claim to be believers but we slack in our walk
|
And we goin around everyday without our backs to the cross
|
And when it comes to servin Christ, we standin on the wall
|
But we say we Christian cause we went up for the altar call
|
That don't mean that we believers, that don't mean we saved from flames
|
If we ain't workin for Him our faith is dead like it say in James
|
If it ain't no better livin, we the same and steady sinnin
|
Just know that faith without fruit wasn't faith from the beginnin
|
It's a lot of kids that got it twisted thinking they saved
|
But homie they ain't bout tha Fathers biz they sleep in they graves
|
And they gon be real disappointed man when they face judgement
|
And all along they though that they was saved, but they really wasn't
|
Sin's disgusting to the Father man, he can barely stand it
|
And the mark of the believer is keeping to His commandments
|
So if we content up in our sin, ain't seekin Jesus
|
We really need to cause we may not even be believers
|
|
[Hook]
|
|
[Verse 3:]
|
Now for some of us we claim to be in love with our God
|
But if we look around we can find that something is odd
|
And if we really look our love for the Son isn't thick
|
Cause we ain't really in love with Christ, we in love with His gifts
|
Man after you die and you gon and you go to Heaven
|
Would you be satisfied if you arrived and God wasn't present?
|
That's a question we should ask, are we choosin Christ?
|
Is he just a supplement, or is He our true delight? Holla at me
|
|
See most of the times what happens is
|
We just goin through life thinkin that everything is great,
|
Thinkin everything is all good
|
Not stoppin and lookin, How we doin, Where we stand with our God
|
See we gotta stop and look to see if we made a decision to accept Christ
|
If we really trusted in Christ and His righteousness
|
And if we really in love with this God
|
It's time to examine ourselves
|
|
