Flame We Preach Christ Lyrics

(Flame speaking)
Yeah
I got a couple of questions for you real quick
I want you to think on these questions, man

Verse 1:
If you were dyin' of thirst
and I offered you some water to drink
how hard would you think
before you fought to grab my glass (you wouldn't think)
but if I told you your sin stinks
but said you could still drink
my water if you turn from your past (then you'll think)
and look to the present and
look to the Father through Jesus Christ
would you still want a sip of my water (ask yourself)
or would you die dehydrate
because of your mind state
don't wanna just leave your sins on the altar
listen
I found that cats do wanna be saved
but we wanna be saved from our consequences (that's what we want, man)
cause we play in our sin
cause we stay in our sin
so I pray how can I convince this (what can I say, Lord?)
generation of men
generation of women
that we sinners in need of a transplant
in the heart I mean
cause it's dark Hakeem
naw I mean would you please understand that

Hook:
We preach Christ
in His fullness, dawg
in His fury and endless love
Seek Him now you can know Him as Savior
Seek Him later you'll know Him as Judge (repeat Hook)

Verse 2:
If you were starvin' to death
and I came to your house with a meal
how long would you chill
before you fought to grab my food (not long)
but if I told you your sin stinks
but said you could still eat
my meat if you turn to His truths (question)
or would you starve and die
would you crawl and cry
cause you really love cars and shoes (think about that, man)
or would you kill your pride
and then spill to God
"my sin nature's got me singin' the blues"
listen
I know young dudes who hate to live
I know girls who know where their rapists live (now that's pressure)
and they hate this life and won't take to Christ
so they keep tryin' to escape with pills
this is real that's why I preach with passion
cause my cousins Nick, Dennis, and Galisha is askin' (what they askin' man?)
"Am I weak if I don't run the streets and look neat in my sneaks and expensive fashion?"

Hook

Verse 3:
If you were born in sin
and the Father sent His beloved Son
would you surrender to Him
or would you stay on the run (we're born sinners)
or would you stick with your block
listenin' to the rock
speak slop just to chief with your duns
listen
your whole life is like a walkin' abortion
you ain't even had a chance to live (you ain't even had a chance to live )
I got fam man This'l and J-son
if not me listen to my mans and nem (if not me listen to my mans and nem)
we certified teachin' people
who ain't scared of God call us evangelists (call us evangelists, man)
until we die preachin' that Jesus is God
please listen to our stanzas kid yo
