(Illusent talking) Yeah, they say, they say, they say You should compromise a little bit What do you think I'm gonna say (laughs) [Verse 1] Nah, never that, I'm just a clever cat You liked 'The Foundation' right? Well here's a fresh batch Fresh, I mean 'Fresh' like 'Prince' I been walking with God, ain't been the same since Since Cincinnati's own K-Drama hit me Don't get me confused with secular dudes They don't wanna walk a mile in my shoes I'd rather be despised for my views With my views justified by God who will not lose Ask Pharaoh, ask Nebuchadnezzar I serve Christ, so it isn't whatever, nah Read Jeremiah 20:9, you will see what I'm feeling inside Cuz inside, the enemy feeds constant lies But stand strong, no compromise, no compromise [Hook] No compromise, G, I'm a rap about Him, cuz it's not about me Live humble, live righteous, live life just like His, so Give Him glory and praise all day for His glorious ways (you know, you know) Yeah, Give Him glory and praise all day for His glorious ways, No Compromise [Verse 2] Compromise, I don't like the word I stay fly like a bird, but unlike the heard I go against the grain, I'm so against the fame Unless I'm representing one name, Jesus! I put His name on a pedestal There's no 'He loves me not' when the pedals pull And when the pedals fall to the earth My knees fall to the dirt To give Him the thanks that He deserves The gangstas need the Word, even the politicians Don't get it twisted, even the Christians Because our mission's to walk in submission So stop yelling at God and just listen To that 'still small voice' You can follow His will, but you still got a choice The enemy feeds constant lies But stand strong, no compromise, no compromise [Hook] [Verse 3] This is real rap, the other's a façade Cuz they're giving me props, but I give 'em to God Cuz I don't deserve them Without Him, I'm worthless, without me, He's perfect Do you understand what I'm saying? Do you understand, I ain't playing Like a bench-warmer, He sent armor in Ephesians 6 And with the Spirit, this berean's sick Like I'm running a temp Secular music is dope, but the lyrics exempt And this body's a tent, and I'm just checking in That's why sometimes I don't feel comfortable in my own skin Because I owe Him everything Every breath, every moment, cuz His d**h was atonement The enemy feeds constant lies But stand strong, no compromise, no compromise [Hook] X2
