lyrics

they did it to me they’re gonna do it to you
they did it to me they’re gonna do it to you
they did it to me they’re gonna do it to you
it’ll be sweet when we hit ‘em with the truth

verse 1 (Playdough)
they hated Him they're gonna hate you
if they're loving a lie they're gonna hate truth
let em feel let em hear and see they do
need some grace how long did it take you?
there's no love for Him there's no love for me
but I got love for them learning my enemy
really aint that different than I was
seen a mirror and they look just like us
help me to see them like you saw them
to heal them, love, touch them and call them
to shake that stench of death right off them
to carry my cross daily and often
let it soften my heart, let's sink the truth in
wisdom and understanding introduced then
one heart, one love, one way
but there's only one truth and we gon' know one day

verse 2 (Qwiet)
hit ‘em with rhythm, rock with a cause
mixed with a little hip-hop renaissance
get em with deliberate thoughtful response
and dudes stop in their tracks... men-o-pause
chances I succumb and let this dumb stuff get me
about one in a hundred... million fifty
hungry for substance, something to lift me
becoming the covenant jump if you’re with me
naughty by nature, nice by design
stalwart cadence, tight with the rhyme
in all that is sacred, life intertwined
in the darkness of pavement the light gonna shine
nodding your head and stomping your feet it's
proof that the haters can’t stop the proceedings
truth is unchanging can’t control-alt-delete it
sooner or later we’re all gonna see it

verse 3 (Theory Hazit)
if the truth hurts
then it's nothing but pain in my verse
word is truth sets you free
from bondage, the massive key
is Jesus, he freed us
the absolute truth is he'll never leave us
only lead us to carry out the truth
we doing that in or out the booth
whether it's church or club
I hit it with that raw uncut no soda
wise like Yoda, yep
faith comes by hearing the word
and if it's presented right it's dope when it's heard
a lot of yall rappers wanna splurge
wanna receive but you never serve
never look for the world to approve
they hated Christ so they gonna hate you too

verse 4 (Qwiet)
hit ‘em with rhythm, rock with a cause
mixed with a little hip-hop renaissance
get em with deliberate thoughtful response
and dudes stop in their tracks... men-o-pause
chances I succumb and let this dumb stuff get me
about one in a hundred... million fifty
hungry for substance, something to lift me
becoming the covenant jump NOW
