We Did
[VERSE 1: Tedashii] Why did we do it, cause mami thought it was too late / struggle in her flesh got her mixed up just like a Clue tape / straddling the fence, switching back and forth just like two lanes / we present the grace that's available since this Jew came / why did we do it, cause we deny the hand that is given / we'd rather prison before we choose the Lamb that is risen / we're unaware that our hearts are deceitfully wicked / if trusted it'll trick you like Shai Linne when he flipped it / so don't come up in the game tip-toeing, dip low when we blowing, tip slowing / and chilling on the fact men going through notions, still joking, imploding / they looking up to God for props and more dollars for collars for popping / but put it on the move, your crosses, cause lost men seek flossing like bosses / it's 1-1-6 the only reason I live / make it plain like windowpanes and outfits without appeal / yes I am young but like Vince I rally / I'm unashamed, I stand out like Longhorns in Cali //
[HOOK] Because of God's love and grace (that's why we did what we did) / for little kids up in the faith (that's why we did what we did) / His Son died up in our place (that's why we did what we did) / to meet the Father face to face (that's why we did what we did) / to show them boys it's not an act (that's why we did what we did) / because the Christ is coming back (that's why we did what we did) / to rep His name and hold it down (that's why we did what we did) / we grab mics and say it loud (that's why we did what we did) /
[VERSE 2: Trip Lee] Aye cats always wanna ask us / why we made a switch to living life for the Master, ain't nothing great as this / we don't be feeling like we have to be smoking and drinking Cris / they don't understand so they be asking why like Jadakiss / we used to be your average dudes man, living just to live / with ungodly attitudes, straight content within our sin / but glory to God, He snatched us up out of confusion / we ain't fools cause Christ cross shook us like we was hooping man / we ain't even know that our vision was blurred / we was all up in the world but wouldn't get in the word / you wonder why we dirty south but we ain't sipping the syrup / cause He took the crucifixion, still was risen on the third / His Spirit took control, that's why we some new creatures / taught us everything we know, like He was a school teacher / now we pursue Jesus, we ain't living in sin / cause He snatched us out the pit, that's why we did what we did //
[VERSE 3: Tedashii] Hey it's T-Dot, I'm back on your corner up in your hood man / still reaching for them junky monkeys gripping the wood grain / still reaching out to my family just like I should man / even if they blow me off with it, it's all good man / cause the truth of the gospel, I got it / just like apostles, I shout it / loud like little kids who be pouting / till this whole circle get crowded / see the world is undoubtedly cursed with a curse / so we spit a verse with no curse for the reverse of the curse / children are fighting to live, addicts keep popping them pills / Christians are frightened to spill, passively cropping them fields / I'm unashamed of the God who would take my blame / the lashes on the Master passed me fastly when Jesus came / so reading His Word - that's me / witness on curbs - that's me / no four letter words - that's me / does this sound absurd? that's me / with through what Jesus did, now we some believer kids / see it's His love that compels us to do what we did //
