lyrics

Homiletic

Im On my Bed of happiness
Fell out the sky to a sea of tempurpedic mattresses
Call that grace
Grace that call with an answer
Place that "Clause" with cupids, Comets, and some Prancers
With your antlers so you fly, bring your presents to the rooftops
Blast your message loud- like some pink n purple tube socks
Oh I'm not clear- I'm so Huey like its Boondocks
Color commentary like Rahim with his boom box
Radio, I might not make the radio
But my pretty lady still carrying my baby tho
I may not ever see six figures
But there's hundreds in my fold, for those afterlife expenses
Everlasting riches- fire tests the real gold
I couldn't pay the debt, there was ransom in his billfold
Lowers my defenses, this is homiletic
It's not apologetic, yet so apologetic

The basis of this gospel of grace is
Jesus saved us as Savior, disgracing satan with payment
of blood of propitiation, so every nation can taste it
His graciousness keeps on chasing us; chastening us
I hasten for the hastening of
The Day of the Lord's appearing; I'm peering inside
the voice of God that I'm hearing inside
like "That's amazing enough..."
The race coming up has me lacing em' up
I don't say that to convey that I rush
I pace when I paint what I touch
Taking my brush to thrust, in the Gospel...
for the benefit of others
To leave every canvas covered
Because those words in red...
They cover every color
I'm an artisan for the art of Him
Homiletics via artwork
Don't get it twisted, it isn't our work
The same power that makes the stars work
Also makes these bars work
God's word is the method
God's word is the weapon
It goes against my grain (migraine) in ways you won't find in Excedrin
You won't find an exception...
This vehicle for change contains horsepower you won't find in an Intrepid
I'm progressing towards a wedding... by His grace I'll make the guest-list
Matthew 7 keeps me sober as I move closer to my exit
So whether song or sermon...
Eternity's what I'm immersed in
Cause tomorrow really is promised, though your location's not for certain
The better location's not for purchase
Nor is it for just "good persons"
Repentance to Jesus yields replenishment in season
And that's Real to believe in
So Dear Captain America...
when the Real God drops His hammer, your shield will be no defense
And "iron sharpens iron" so it's irony to me to see
that only the blood of the Son of Man
can now sustain what iron can't
So much for iron, man (Iron Man); don't let that stop your Marvel
Worship's up in our arsenal
Steady fire 'till Zion lands

This is not your diaper dandies, best put on your man clothes
Its not quite folklore, its like sermons with a banjo
Is it me, seems my eyes a bit misty
Felt like I got super powers when my momma used to kiss me
As a boy, now I'm grown and its like everything's so jaded
Feeling kinda Sappy singing never woulda made it
Feeling kinda happy, when I think about His payment
Was counting up my wages, I fell short up in my savings
Think I'm lookin fresh, Liz be saying I'm too matchy
Stay neutral, while this culture playing cowboys and apaches
Full of brainiacs and scientific geniuses
Who can't detect life hearing heartbeats from the fetuses
PETA-ists give Labradors their health care
And we think less of human beings living off of welfare
I'm flabbergasted couldn't mask it if I tried
Tried and true is my advocate, the master of the skies
Seas and everything between
Get butterflies to think this monarchy's supreme, with eternal God and King
Just glad I had my peace to say
Never catch me spending retail to cop some beats by Dre
And I'm hearing just fine...just like the Father
Though not just like the Father...or not just...like the Father
I close these Ecclesiastes with conclusions of the matters
Pray until you've prayed...give embraces to your pastors
