Killa

I wanted to post some lyrics from Lecrae's album Rehab. It is a great album with awesome truths. This song is called "Killa" and it talks about our sin. Please look up the song. There are girls that sing parts of it to illustrate the seductiveness of sin. It really captures how dangerous it is.

Uh, I know it's going to kill me but I just can't let it go
And the taste so appealing got a grip upon my soul
These honey dip lies mesmerize me
Pride's got it's crooked fingers twisted all inside in me
Fools walk the path I'm on, never to be seen again
Sipping on seduction while we eating on some secret sin
(Not a lot of love and mercy) says the whisper in my ear
And I know I should be over this, but I ain't seeing clear
And I ain't leaving here, unless somebody save me
Walking to my grave letting evilness enslave me
Evil looks so lovely covered in her lace of lies
And the silky smooth seduction just manipulates my mind
Her fabrical fabrication is fueling my fascination
While I'm intoxicated she starts her assassination
I'm losing all my honor and my years to the merciless
Giving all my life away but I'm just so immersed in this (killa)

[Hook:]
Baby this is innocent (Killa) it won't even hurt a little bit (Killa)
I'm only here for your benefit (killa) I'm your every wish (Killa)
Come on and let me in (killa), baby this is innocent (Killa)
And it won't even hurt a little bit (Killa) Close your eyes and let's get lost tonight
(Killa) Would it be alright? You'll see (killa)

Her feet go down to DEATH, so don't let her consume you
Even though her heart is black, her exterior's beautiful
She'll take your life away, strip away your joy
Pretends that she gon build you up but she's just gon destroy you
My friends fell low, when they was so high
Got me running scared of myself, no lie
And I know I'm gon die, I tried cold turkey
But when I'm feeling worthy, Satan's sure trying to merk me
I'm doing myself dirty, flirting with what's perverted
I should follow the word but I guess I'd rather be murdered
Excuse me I mean martyred 'cause I'm killing myself
My sin conceived a baby, and we gon name it death, breath
(Gasps) -Taker, she take my breath away
Replaces it with poison and I'm so swept away
I need some bread today hope I wake up
Before they start my wake up somebody make me break up
I'm dating a (Killa)

I'm a Show Off

I just wanted to take some time to explain the name of my blog to those who don't already know. I have taken it from a song by DJ Official called "Show Off" featuring Lecrae and Flame. The whole premise of the song is that we, as Christians, want to "show off" Christ to the rest of the world. At one point, Lecrae comes out and says, "Like the moon I reflect what the Son do. I don't wanna get the glory. I want the Son to."

I recommend you listen to it and read the lyrics as well. I want my life to reflect Christ and not myself. That is the purpose of this blog. I will be writing about my life, but I want to write through gospel lenses. We should glorify God, and that is what I am striving for.

Lecrae and Flame are part of a group called the 116 clique (one-one-six). They are a group of Christian rappers that live to proclaim God to the world. Their lyrics are some of the most biblical lyrics you will ever read. I highly recommend that you look these guys up. Even if you don't like rap music, look up the lyrics.

These are the guys that rap truth: Lecrae, Trip Lee, Tedashii, Sho Baraka, Flame, Pro, Shai Linne, DJ Official, and more. Look these guys up. They are a real encouragement.
