[Papa San]

Them have flu, we na catch the fever

Ya can't cut through my life like degreaser

You coulda never shut the mouth of a believer

Big foot can't fit ina mi sneakers

Them have flu, we na catch the fever

Ya can't cut through my life like degreaser

You coulda never shut the mouth of a believer

Big foot can't fit ina mi sneakers

[Lecrae]

OK, I'm tatted up with my J's on

Hat cocked, to my fade showing

Folks thinking we Ned Flanders

Okely-dokely, game on

They don't hate me they just think they know what I'mma say and

I can't promise that them tv pastors ain't gonna prey

On your grandma with your auntie nem'

Promise y'all I ain't none of them

And you can call me lame, just don't

Call me fake and then call me friend

Cause I don't pretend, boy I live this

Some of y'all on the fences

Oh girl you took home with you

Man she swore she was a Christian

She might be and likely

She like you and just like me

An imperfect person, broke and hurting

Trying to do the right thing

And I'm courtside like Spike Lee

Keep it mellow nightly

Ok, G?

Cause I ain't 'bout that drama in my lifey

That bad one? That's wifey

You know she bout that life, B

She got red bottoms you ain't never seen

And her soul's covered up nicely

That's blood dipped, I mean blood bought

No SuWoo, but this blood talk

Never thought they'd see

Have a concert in the club, huh?

[Papa San]

Them have flu, we na catch the fever

Ya can't cut through my life like degreaser

You coulda never shut the mouth of a believer

Big foot can't fit ina mi sneakers

Them have flu, we na catch the fever

Ya can't cut through my life like degreaser

Yeah

You coulda never shut the mouth of a believer

Yeah

Big foot can't

[Andy Mineo]

Who could step in these size tens?

White boy, cool grey 11's

Since age twelve I represented

Now I'm digging them 13 letters

My church clothes these leather pants

Boy sick? I got medicine

We found the light, Edison

Do God exist? We the evidence (Whoop!)

We the children of the Light, you know what I mean?

That's why I'm hating on the darkness like Paula Deen

Cause in my hood they masked up, like it's Halloween

We going hard for the Rock, but we not some fiends

See and the mission we live for is bigger than everything you could attain

They trying to hate us for sharing our faith but I bet that we do it again

Your hubris is humorous, real talk we true to this

Y'all rappers acting like Ludacris

We unashamed, get used to this, boy

[Papa San]

Them have flu, we na catch the fever

Ya can't cut through my life like degreaser

You coulda never shut the mouth of a believer

Big foot can't fit ina mi sneakers (ah)

Them have flu, we na catch the fever

Ya can't cut through my life like degreaser

You coulda never shut the mouth of a believer

Big foot can't fit ina mi sneakers

[Papa San]

We have to drop it one away

We have to choose Christ for a better day

Yes sir, we have to drop it one away

Live to see me friends them gone astray

We have to drop it one away

We have to choose Christ for a better day

Yes sir, we have to drop it one away

Live to see me friends them gone astray

[Lecrae]

Ay, look. Perpetrating not likely

We live here we don't sightsee

Ain't trying to brag on my service

Telling my left hand where my right be

And it's real rap, no faking

Not some rap dudes who couldn't make it

This ain't the life I chose, boy

It chose me I can't shake it

I can't feel 'em

How come they can kill 'em?

How come I can't heal 'em?

They be drilling me with codiene stripping

Plus they popping pills

So I feel what's popping on the charts is popping body parts

And yeah, sometimes my music's for the church, I call it body art

[Papa San]

Them have flu, we na catch the fever

Ya can't cut through my life like degreaser

You coulda never shut the mouth of a believer

Big foot can't fit ina mi sneakers

Them have flu, we na catch the fever

Ya can't cut through my life like degreaser

You coulda never shut the mouth of a believer

Big foot can't fit ina mi sneakers

(Ka-ka-ka)
