Kirk Franklin - I Call Your Name lyrics

(Verse 1: Solo) Please oh please try to feel my vibe Haters give 5 feel, y'all k** my vibe Forced to hustle and use muscle in this cruel world with no guidance So I really had no choice but to resort to violence Hit the streets to get some heat Proceed to get paid substantial I had to hit the block and set up shop for my financials My grant is cancelled And if I don't play sports I'll never see college Hung in my hood and got a little street knowledge Man get your wealth look out for sell and watch your health And whenever in time of need just call on God for help Stack your mail aviod a prison cell Now faith in God and paying tithes got me living well Don't kiss and tell but ya'll fools got me crossed up This my creation player hation get you tossed up And it's a shame if you don't leave the game You're bound to meet the flames You better hit your knees and call his name (Chorus: Nu Nation) I call your name when I need you And you always see me through (Verse 2) I'm genuine not a copy and you bustaz can't stop me All you can do follow the rules take notes and watch me Bail pick up the phone gossip make a gang of calls Tell'em Gospel Gangstaz here to take it all you hope I fall I'm not the fall guy homie you picked the wrong guy Your mind done tricked you into believing your own lie Look I keeps it Gospel and Gangsta at the same time You get sick I pray you disrespect and I'm a take mine Cuz God and this westcoast gangish made me famous Beats and lyrics offl the heezy for sheezy but can you blame us? Runnin like a wild pack of coyotes you can't frame us Property of committee soldiers but you can blame us Trying to own benzes and skyscrapers paying tithes with high paper Got the whole industry trembling while I'm chewing Now n' laters They can't fade us don't get mad because the played us I'm down and dirty bout my scratch making fools take haitus (Chorus: Nu Nation) (Verse 3: Tic Toc) The notion believed is that we on some other type stuff Yet the fact of the matter is we just too rough I can talk about this but I choose not to Cause the rules of the crew is that we stay loyal and true Don't break rank dogg put God first see that's all we can do Never have loose expectation because that's being unture See I done left the game but game never left me And when a thug comes off the streets He can never really shake his rap sheet My whole purpose is being right and making cheese And I know in order to do that I gotta stay on my knees Having a paid for home and a Navigator that ain't bad But uh some folks will criticize and make you feel like it's bad Don't drop the baton when according to the plan I know the race ain't too quick but um Catch me if you can (Chorus) (Verse 4: Meech) Meanwhile everybody laugh and played they games I just sit back with my pad taking names Seems strange looking back as I reminisce On how it changed and that's has come to this Vide I get this rhyme I get begins My mind just flips this phyco never end Life's a trip if I could get away from the game then I would switch today And change my ways It's just a phase I must go through If your mind start playing games what you gonna do? (Chorus)
