Lecrae - We Don’t
(from the album Real Talk)
© copyright 2005

Verse 1: Lecrae
I’m not the standard at all and wouldn’t claim to be/
But since Christ snatched me up there’s been a lot of change in me/
I got my world view corrected/
I see things eternal, yeah I’ve got a whole new perspective/
I don’t use drugs or sell/
I keep accountability cause my flesh, yeah it loves to fail/
I don’t go where I used to go/
I got my number changed twice for the girls that I used to know/
I don’t trip when I pass the cops/
‘Cause I’m not making assists; you know trying to pass the rock/
I don’t live life scared of death/
‘Cause when I take my last breath the next step is there in text/
I’m not a legalist and I ain’t hating/
But there’s things I don’t and won’t do, yeah I read Galatians/
And I keep reading Ephesians if it’s Christ we believe in/
We shouldn’t be confused with the heathens.

Hook:
You gonna ride with us/
Nah I don’t do that there/
You gettin’ high with us/
Nah I don’t do that there/
You wanna hit a lick/
Nah I don’t that there/
Get a couple chics/
Uh Unh I don’t do that there!

Verse 2: Lecrae
Man I don’t trip of copping’ whips/
If it ain’t a DVD you won’t catch me pop in clips/
I ain’t worried chains or shoes/
My God’s thinking bout whether to change the city sky from Greys to blues/
I don’t care about the famous names/
‘Cause when Christ comes back a lot of folks will be nameless man/
And I ain’t worried about speaking his name/
‘Cause if it wasn’t for Christ yeah we’d all be sinking in flames/
I don’t even wanna “change the game”/
You’re favorite rapper got saved last night, yeah that’s the aim/
The world we’re living in is simply tempting/
So I quit consenting to my flesh when it tries to pimp me/
Until I die or Christ comes to get me/
I ain’t doing what this world wants to do now is you wit me?

Hook:

Verse 3: R-Swift
Yo I’ma keep it short simple and plain/
I used to fiend for the pimp game/
‘Til I got with Christ and switched my aim/
Flipped my pain to a burden/
To grab hip-hop, his name and merge it/
With His word as the plate then serve it/
Cats are like “who you serve kid?” It’s gotta be HIM/
Who wiped my sin slate clean like Oxy 10/
I rock Christ from PA to Dallas/
R-Swift and LeCrae walk in the Spirit ‘til our feet ache with callous/
Naw I’m bugging, but for real my point is/
With Christ life is pointless/
This joint is for the prisoners trapped on the block/
Where blasted shots cause cats to drop like temperatures/
Without Christ and restoration/
Your chance of making it is slimmer than Blacks getting reparations/
Jesus Christ man the Ancient of Days/
Get with HIM for eternal life and pass the phrase!
