This is for You Songtext
Either this life is meaningless
Or it′s meaning is eclipsed by a series of events
That satisfy for the moment
But once your moment is passed, your moment's the past
Then poof, dude, you can′t revive it or hold it
You're born, you suffer
You die when you're older
But there′s a loophole, I wouldn′t lie to my soldiers
Nor would I lie to my sisters, God is my witness
Jesus Christ is the only escape from out of your prison
Let's go!
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
He′s clean we're unclean, we′re seen, he's unseen
You don′t want him to flee the scene
You need Him to intervene in your life (yeah, you do)
Therefore, come cling to the King
And cling to those things that He loves
Bring flames to the things that He hates
Be sure not to worship things, that he shapes
For the things that He makes, or the things that he'll shake, yes
Things that he makes are the things he creates
If you exchange him for those things, you're suppressing the truth
Which simply means that you know He exists
And in him all things consist
And that He′s powerful, but you ignore him
You don′t want to be accountable and responsible
For doing that which is considered sin (nah, dawg)
Which are simply those things that are inconstistent with him
His antithesis (uh-huh), makes you consider him not (uh-huh)
Consider the plot (yeah), consider your lot (yeah)+
And ask yourself if you're a citizen in the city of God?
Let′s go
Yes, this is for you (yeah, yeah)
Yes, this is for you (yeah, yeah)
Yes, this is, yes, this is for you (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
He's clean, we′re unclean, we're seen, he′s unseen
You don't want him to flee the scene
'Cause homie, this ain′t a dream, it′s real (reality)
Life ain't what it seems, but seems to appeal to our appetite
So just for a single meal (what?) We sell our birthright
Now that′s senseless, like trading in your motocycle for a dirt bike (true)
The earth's alright but turn on the searchlight
You′ll find it's not a new pair of Jordans, it′s some hurt Nikes
From birthright to the grave, we liken our days
To that of the nature of a night and a day
You know (what?) It's here then it's gone (uh-huh)
This earth is temporary
I hope that you adhere to what you hear in this song, yes (listen up)
Draw near to his throne, otherwise your God′s the creator′s creation (so what?)
And it's clear that that′s wrong, you can be sincere but sincerely wrong
I'm just trying to remind you, you need to be fearing the Lord
Let′s go
Yes, this is for you (yeah, yeah)
Yes, this is for you (yeah, yeah)
Yes, this is, yes, this is for you (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
He's clean, we′re unclean, we're seen, he's unseen
Yup, sister, you got it
Yes, it′s the same thing, it′s redundant (same ole song)
But a momentous one, life's full of moments
But once your moment under the sun, is over (what?)
Your moment is done, yo
You don′t control your moment, your moment's your owner (think about that)
Trust me, if you controlled your moment (uh-huh)
Then you would hold on to the moment, that′s golden
But you can't, ′cause your moment is fleeting
And God designed it that way to get you to grope him and seek Him (ok)
Why you think the starry hosts and the ocean's intriguing?
And you were created a socio emotional being
God did this to provoke you
To think in terms of whether or not you're in fellowship with the holiest being (who?)
Jesus Christ, the holiest meaning (ok)
Set apart, waiting for you and your homies to agree with him
Yes, this is for you (yeah, yeah)
Yes, this is for you (yeah, yeah)
Yes, this is, yes, this is for you (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, oh)
Yes, this is for you (yeah, yeah)
Yes, this is for you (yeah, yeah)
Yes, this is, yes, this is for you (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, woo)
That′s it
Or it′s meaning is eclipsed by a series of events
That satisfy for the moment
But once your moment is passed, your moment's the past
Then poof, dude, you can′t revive it or hold it
You're born, you suffer
