Flame - Give Us The Truth Pt. 2 lyrics

[INTRO] Give us the truth...part 2 (part 2, part 2, part2) Give us the truth For every email, for every phone call For everybody that came up to me at a show, Here's part 2...listen yo [VERSE 1] After the platinum show the two I did with cross movement I said my goodbyes 'cause I had to fly back to St. Louis I left there to early for my first semester in school I was exposed to so much truth that I had to choose Between what I had learned and what I was taught to do At my church on my zone I was so confused The first sunday morning back it was a culture shock Watching the sheppard and sheep explode like a soda pop They're heads was shaking, they shaking over these chintzy sermons People spitting and shouting but nobody's discerning I left the building My feeling were crushed I felt forsakin' The one place I was supposed to come for restoration. And worship of a Holy God and exalt Him in praises Spent the whole prayer time rubuking the satan Spent the whole sermon time just talking 'bout money While I was dieing inside and spiritually hungry. [CHORUS] Give us the truth That's what we need if we're gon' properly teach If we gon' seek and we gon' properly reach. Give us the truth That's what we need if we gon' carry our cross And if we gon' affectively disciple tha law. Give us the truth That's what we need if we gon' walk up in holiness and boldness and meek and lowliness. Give us the truth That's what we need in this race we running Proper lessons as we wait for his second coming (for real) Give us the truth [VERSE 2] I left tha crib Moved into the dorms So depressed that I ventured in p**n (it was a crazy thing) I felt the disconnect from Jesus' arms So I ceased to write these rhythms in palms to disobey the King I told my teachers that I was living in sin And my bible I'll never read it again and threw it in the closet And anything that had to do with God Marcus T. he was going the opposite into lifestyle I called phanatic and turn to the cell Ad said for ministry I would go to jail 'cause I was in no position To minister to anybody at all Cause I wasn't sure if I was a christian at that moment dog I was skipping cla**es Hanging with the ma**es And my days were black and grey like cigareete ashes All I know is that I wanted to die But suicide met me into God Then I felt Him shook me. [REPEAT CHORUS] [VERSE 3] But it was obvious God in his providence Put me with people to guide me and got me outta this During the chapel service A cat named Paul Wausher Preached the gospel and drove me up to the Lord's alter And I confessed my sin And he presed reset again I started ova and felt like a solider for Jehovah I called my old pastor and apologized for how I behaved As of that day we agreed to go our seperate ways. I met this girl named beth who told me about a church home First I visit, became a member, and then it was on Then the pastor gave me a stack of books Now I'm back with raps and hooks Took a summer and spent three hundred dollars on tapes and books and learned from these biblical scholars Now I'm back and I'm walking in light Living my life Glorifying Jesus Christ [CHORUS]
