Ghetto To The Gospel (Romans 12:1-2)

INTRO
From the ghetto to the gospel
From the ghetto to the gospel
We're treating life like a game
But one day, one day my brothers and sisters
It's gonna be game over...

VERSE 1
I'm gonna burst out the box with just 1 message
Stay quite calm but still sound aggressive
Not quite there but we're still progressing
Spit bar after bar with succession
I learned my lesson, can't go back
Gotta get to heaven, it's a known fact
The streets are decaying, I spit so that
I spit the truth that these souls lack
I was born with a purpose
If I live a good life but I don't rep Christ
I can say that my good life was worthless
See this ...
Bigger than a gun that you purchased
People travel thru life's journeys on searches
Blinded by lies, truth be disguised
But somehow the truth still emerges

HOOK
I've been gone for a long time now but I came back
From the ghetto to the gospel
Back in a big way brother just so I can change rap
But now I'm God's tool
And I will go where I've been called
Coz I was lost in this road cycle
Now I'm Christ disciple, yeah yeah
From the ghetto to the gospel

VERSE 2
Coz I don't wanna be twenty-one
Locked up in a cell in a jail no love
Where gangsters pop shots and kill
Whether a foe or another thug
Still we want street credibilities
In the streets boys wanna eat coz it's so deep
And they might end your life
Thru pain or strife with a gat or a knife
So they gots to pack a tool let's be practical
You clap them, they clapping back at you
And this is actual real statistics found n factual
We're living in a place where it's corrupt
And they will try to shut you down
From the ghetto to the gospel
A change is needed and I'm doing this now

VERSE 3
I don't wanna be that guy
Who felt his only choice was to squeeze that 9
Tried living right but in recent times
Life's tough and he don't see no reasons why
He's been given that portion
Go to his mum's room and it's so clear she's been crying
Coz of stress and exhaustion
... house with no p's inside
...
Too young for legal
So he takes to the streets
And he starts rolling with evil guys
Nothing else now but p's on mind
His situation just worsens
He looks now like a very different person
Cause the devil is allowed to deceive all eyes
... truth to what Jesus ...
