Andy Mineo - Hands High lyrics

[Verse 1] Can I bust a rhyme? I'm a rapper, not your average, I come from another kind The way I drop it, they wanna go use the John, number 2 See the signs of turning water to wine Took a trip to Kenya, then I saw the Maasai Took a trip S.A., I was chilling with lions Think I'm lyin, check my Twitter timeline You're gonna be finding it chilling around some time November 29 My savior came, put his hands where they eyes couldn't see With a touch he could heal the blind Then he coming back like a spine I'm seeing lies the enemy tryna sell me I tell him I'm not buyin' 'em And when I do, I be wylin' Not putting Christ in the center like Andrew Bynum Denying him, but now I'm relying on Him My mind was the kind that inspired violence I swear I needed asylums From New York to Milan I be styling on 'em OG Baxter, harder than Margarito hands wrapped in plaster Hold up let me ask ya, ask ya Who you chasing after? The God that we rap about or just a rapper? That's some wack stuff Like calling whoever you podcast your pastor Growing pains feel better after While you going through 'em like "how long they gonna last for? " If you wasn't chastised then I ask ya Are you a legitimate child of the master? You want that? I think not So get them hands high, let me see you rock! [Hook] (x2) They put they hands in the sky (Be careful who you worship when you wave 'em at concerts) They wave 'em from side to side, but please don't get it twisted [Verse 2] I wanna be in it but not of it When the record starts spinning the feeling it starts coming Remembering the days of my sin and even loved it But now I think about what I did and I feel disgusted This Busta Rhymes record that I'm busting Is a testament to what the Father did when I trusted Him Don't you hear how, everything is changing now? The snares, the kicks, even my lifestyle It don't sound like, anything I started with It's transformed, metaphor in the art of it Hip-hop is the culture I am apart of it But I answer to the one that's in charge of it If I offended you brother I hope you pardon it The mission is to lead where they are, that's heart of it God takes what the Devil intended for evil And use it for good of those that He call His people If He redeemed you in your heart that's deceitful Then he can do it to a beat too And we could have beef on the methods As long us we agree to reach peeps with the message That he redeems people and beats I'm free from the sentence of d**h that I was in debt with I'm telling 'em [Hook] (x2) [Outro] Andy: What did you uh, what did you think about your son's mixtape mom? Andy's Mom: Uh, I like. There's a couple songs in there I like. I don't like the heavy rap ones, they're too noisy for me. But I like, there's a couple of them I like there, so Andy: Yea!? Andy's Mom: It's the same way when I go on Lecrae, holy cow! I don't know where I'm going now, I'm all mixed up. I do not know. I thought I was ?, but now I don't know Andy: Ok, I love you mom Andy's Mom: Hey, I love you too bunny Andy: Ok, I'll talk to you soon Andy's Mom: Ok bye...hey Andy, Andy! Andy: Yea Andy's Mom: Andy! Andy: Yea Andy's Mom: I met Lord. I got on the right road. I just thought I'd tell you Andy: Praise Him Andy's Mom: I love you babe Andy: Love you too mom Andy's Mom: Bye Andy: Alright, bye
