Show Lyrics
Lecrae - After the music stops
© copyright Lecrae
Yeah, I got a question, after the show, after the set, after
the music stops, what's next? Are we just writing songs or
are we concerned with uniting a people to follow the great
commission of Christ.
Yeah let's get it, let's go...
Back in the day I was a lunch line rapper, after that I
guess I was a punch line rapper, then I got saved and
sometime after, ya boy came back as a frontline rapper, and
when I say the frontlines, that's not a front line, I'm out
here preachin' Christ on the frontlines, and no it ain't
about rockin' stages 'cause some of my engagements are out
on the pavement yeah.
I'm out to take the bible, create disciples, who make
disciples, disciple-cycles, that's why I want the beats to
knock so after the music stops you can meet the Rock i pray,
that you would know him well, this is like show and tell,
it's more than a show, I'm showing you Emmanuel,
So yeah I'm hopin' that you're likin' the flow but it's only
so you could know that God I'm writing it for... let's
go...
After the show, after the set, after the music stops what's
next?
Will there be fellowship, prayer, disciples, will you open
your Bibles after the music stops.
After it's over, after it ends, after the music stops, what
then?
Will you understand that Christ is King? Or will you just
like the words we sing after the music stops.
I recorded a couple songs some fast some slow, so the
listeners would know the importance of the show, the
importance of the show not to excite these folks but make
God's truth relevant, ignite these folks.
Discipleship is our call but we make disciples, this is not
a suggestion, create disciples. The teachin' is a process,
it's not overnight and it's not a stage and a mic nah, it's
life on life Christ -
Walked with twelve, ate with twelve, talked with twelve,
shaped the twelve, invested in 'em well you could say that
he made the twelve. Who made many more, who made plenty
more, now it's on you and me if there's anymore.
1 teach, 2 teach, 3 teach, 4 teach, 5 teach, 6 teach, 7
teach more, this is what we've been commissioned, it's the
reason why I write, so that you could hear the truth, not so
you can say I'm tight whoa...
After the show, after the set, after the music stops what's
next?
Will there be fellowship, prayer, disciples, will you open
your Bibles after the music stops.
After it's over, after it ends, after the music stops, what
then?
Will you understand that Christ is King? Or will you just
like the words we sing after the music stops.
So, we write this for the right the speak of was righteous,
and then we mic check for a culture who likes the hypeness.
Some say we keep it crunk, some say we hype man; we just
wanna pump the resurrection of the Christ man.
We in the -burbs and the hoods that's hostile, we share a
common view like synoptic Gospels and you know we keep a
couple young dudes around us and teach 'em the same truth
God used to ground us.
This is a lifestyle so, when the mic's down I pray people
follow Christ when they turn the lights down. I pray that
everybody playin' this song will be challenged by everything
I had to say in this song.
I don't do this for the money, I don't do this for fame, I
don't do this so the industry can know my name, I do this in
hopes to glorify Yeshua the King, if you're feelin' me you
know you should be doin' the same let's go...
After the show, after the set, after the music stops what's
next?
Will there be fellowship, prayer, disciples, will you open
your Bibles after the music stops.
After it's over, after it ends, after the music stops, what
then?
Will you understand that Christ is King? Or will you just
like the words we sing after the music stops.
