Yeah, uh
Killa Kwai on the beat
Let me tell you how this all came to be
I was sitting, digging in the Word, Matthew 23
I'm thinking this is it, finally, victory
Then the Holy Spirit hit quick, convicted me
Could it be this just all hypocrisy?
I'm a modern day Pharisee, quite possibly
Tell me, what's the use if I know the law
But the true and living God, I never knew at all
I gotta practice what I preach, yeah
It don't matter what I'm saying on these beats, yeah
In the church or when I'm on the streets
Tell me, what's the use if I don't practice what I preach?
If that's the case, I should expect the worst
No surprise why the world would reject the church
I mean, why would you respect my turf
If I don't comply myself and respect it first?
Brothers and sisters in Christ, this is a wake up call
To myself included, I can relate to y'all
Right now's the time I gotta start living it
The last thing I wanna be is a hypocrite
I gotta practice what I preach, yeah
It don't matter what I'm saying on these beats, yeah
In the church or when I'm on the streets
Tell me, what's the use if I don't practice what I preach?
Make no mistake, it's a must that I be honest, y'all
What's in the dark shall come to light, that's a promise, y'all
I know what some will say, ain't no surprise to me
"I ain't a Christian, so none of this applies to me"
Indeed, that's why often from the start
I sincerely pray that the Lord will soften up your heart
Until then, be aware of any false prophets
Vicious wolves disguised as sheep that look harmless
Don't be fooled before you follow suit
I mean, really take a look and recognize them by their fruit
The good news is, even as I'm writing this
I realize only faith brings forth righteousness
Yet I can't neglect how I live and behave
'Cause faith without works will only end up in the grave
Right now's the time we gotta start living it
