Indwelling Sin Songtext
von Lecrae

Hello? Yeah what′s up man
Yeah I'm finna head to the studio right now
I′m just about, uh, about to go into the store real quick, get me a energy drink
Aight then, I'll holla at you

Hey playa, you wanna have some fun?
Ah nah sis, you got the wrong one man
Forget you man

What's up little bruh, I got some of that green green
Get one of these bags up off me, get your tie dye ′round here
Nah homie I′m straight, you got that man

Yeah, I just wanna get this energy drink
This all for you man? You don't need no Zigzag no Newport, nothing like that?
Nah man
Let me tell you what, you mix this energy drink with some Hennessey you′d be thawed dawg
Go into the back and get your fifth dawg
Nah man, I got Jesus man, I'm good homie
Aight, I got Jesus too, but Jesus and Hennessey go good together
Ah, temptation boy, I promise


Aye look what′s good man it's me again
The one you used to call your friend (who?)
I know you ain′t forgot me?

Oh yeah you always get me caught in sin

Here you go with that again
You act like we ain't cool or sumthin
Lets go smoke a Kool or sumthin
Talk and sip a brew or sumthin

Nah man I ain't trusting you
Ain′t nothing but lust in you
Thanks be to God I obeyed the teaching I was entrusted to
Cause when you pass by you just want ya boy to backslide
Have me feeling sick like I′m coming down off a crack high

Oh c'mon man that′s a flat lie you act like I'm the bad guy
You know when me and you get together we have a grand time
Lets take it back, all the way to like the 6th grade
Last thing on your mind back in the day was trying to live saved
Remember house parties, kissing in the dark?
Man that was innocent fun come on

Now don′t start
See dawg I live by the Spirit so I don't gratify
All them old sinful desires that never satisfy


Aye come on kill that
Look me in my face and tell me I′m a lie
You ain't feeling chasing women, getting drunk, and getting high
Stacking money, staying fly, living up the playas life
We was having fun now gone try to be religious guy

Aye yo man, first of all lower your voice, who you talkin' to?
Handcuffed in August ′02, yeah, I got caught with you
Truck flipped over on 35 that was all from you
I′ll mess around and lose my life man tryna walk in you
I'm standing on these stages and got these people believing me
What I look like tryna gratify this disease in me

So now I′m a disease? Man please, I got yo back dawg
I ain't saying drop the Jesus and be a rap star
All I′m saying is when it's you and me lets be real folk
We ain′t gotta be selling drugs and tryna kill folk
Maybe just a lil'

What? A lil' this, a lil′ that
A lil′ BET late at night, that's like a lil′ crack
See you ain't gone lie to me I see how you be tryna be
BET tonight becomes addiction to pornography
And that′s in no way honoring the God who's ruling sovereign

Aye man you know you miss them old days

Yeah, you right, possibly
But after that I sober up, think of Jesus holding up
His skin up on the cross for all them drunken nights I′m throwing up
Every thought of blowin' up is captured in his flowing blood
I start thinking Philippians 4:8 when you showing up

Aye you know I ain't gone quit right?

Yeah I know but I′m dead to you
And one day I′ll be present with Jesus who died and bled from you
Colossians 1:15 that's the God that I trust in
The Father crushed Him
In doing so he has crushed sin
