Shut Us Down |
Gonna be hard to shut us down, down |
Gonna be hard to shut us down, down |
Down |
Okay, call your man, call your girl, tell them all to call their bluff |
Tell them call the stations and ask them why they hate on us |
Took an ouch for his people just so he can stay in touch |
Check the record books, it’s better off you run with us |
Call us punks, call us weak, call us chumps, call us dumb |
Call the Verizon network and still see it’s not enough |
On the cable on the web, on the phone they call us whack |
Go ahead and try to shut us down, ain’t no app for that |
Running with us, or you can hate me |
But it’ll be hard to shut us down |
Ohh, running with us, or you can hate me |
But it’ll be hard to shut us down |
Listen, I like to tell the truth, don’t like to save face |
Born in H-town, got the words to save face |
Christian means that when I eat the beat I say my grace |
If only God could judge you how you plan to beat the case |
Can’t beat it, Mike Jack couldn’t either |
All you get is one life, can’t rewind or repeat it |
I will do this till the day I take my last breath |
Beautiful feet I’m running till I take my last step |
There’s nothing they can do to stop what the Lord’s doing |
Come in the kitchen, take a look at what the Lord’s brewing |
Radio don’t play us, television mock us |
The truth is still spreading, there’s no way they can stop us |
Pharisees throw stones at my glass house |
But they don’t see their own reflection when they bad mouth |
You can lie, you can hate, you can run us down |
But in the end, the gates of Hell couldn’t shut us down |
Some think we’re a mess, some calling us blessed |
A mic and a stage, don’t always equal success |
Sometimes a bigger platform only brings stress |
I watch my life and doctrine and pray for the best |
AT told me let your light shine homes |
Even if they wanna see you crash like Dow Jones |
It’s like Matt 16, who can come against it |
You can be a Pharisee or you can be a witness |
If we stay in the church the world calls us religious |
If we go on MTV, the saints think were tripping |
If we try to hit the streets then we’re some thugs in sin |
With those spectating you can’t expect to win |
It’s hard to make decisions when theory’s clouded your vision |
Sometimes I’m confused with who is my opposition |
I think I heard cheers when I fumbled the ball |
They claim they’re on our team but praying for our fall |
Running with us, or you can hate me |
But it’ll be hard to shut us down |
Ohh, running with us, or you can hate me |
But it’ll be hard to shut us down |
Gonna be hard to shut us down, down, down |
Gonna be hard to shut us down, down, down |
Down, down, gonna be hard to shut us down, down, down |
