Ambassador - A Girl Named World
(from the album Christology)

Hook:
I used to date a girl named, "World."/
Sis was real glamorous arrayed up in diamonds and pearls/
But now I’ve got a new best friend/
Because the world will leave you dry and watch you die in the end.

Verse 1:
I used to date a girl named, "World."/
Sis was real glamorous arrayed up in diamonds and pearls/
She was the baddest, the phattest, she was established/
And with her universal status - she had me livin' lavish/
She knew about my sinful habits. She used to feed them/
She offered me the fruits of lust (and yep) I used to eat them/
She took my freedom. Warnings came, I wouldn't heed them/
And when I mentioned God she said, "Chill you don’t need Him."/
I second-guessed this but then she pulled out those dresses, tight/
Fittin' ones made by Mercedes and Lexus/
Her neck just exploded with the fragrance of passion. The aroma of fame/
Fortune, and fashion/
Snatching' my heart she romanced me, my plans be/
Lover for life make her, make her my wife, I can't see/
Breaking' up like I can't see me in a - S girl/
This is dedicated to my ex-girl/

Verse 2:
The lust of the flesh - you bring your best to the city so Now sex is/
Pushed through the radio and video/
All was chill we’d build and share thrills together/
She gave cheddar, we stayed close knit like a sweater/
I gave her letters, secular rap format to better/
Inform her, "Miss I’m on ya, I’m down forever."/
I remarked, "Dear sweetheart let me spark the fire"/
"I admire the way you supply a brother’s desire"/
The lust of the flesh, you bring your best to the city so/
Now sex is pushed through the radio and video/
Then the lust of the eyes/
You make sure guys look good to the girls and girls show more and more thighs/
You’re wise, you know the pride of life makes us brag/
We're gassed on who we are, what we do and what we have/
But tragically thoughts of loneliness be attackin' me. You know how that/
can be so you offer me crack and weed/
Distractin' me from reality with pleasure. Giving me treasure lettin' me/
Indulge without measure/
Your hands out you want my soul in it plus the mastery/
Then you’ll be mine with no limit just like Master P/
You captured me, I thought you were all I needed/
Until I found a Bible and decided to read it/
I never could think that you could have any competition 'til sweated the/
Bible's Author and it's Editor/
You fretted to hear of the One that I met at the/
Appointed time, he kept coming' after me like a creditor/
A date, we set it up, and the He showed me His nail prints/
Then the eternal scale and your riches started palin’/
Now I know why my girl dissed Him/
Because the World pissed Him off and now he hates the whole world system.

Hook:

Verse 3:
In your heart I would hope you’d vote Messiah for President/
Cause life’s too up and down like a dieters measurement/
It's evident the side of God is unattractive/
Because the world diamonds and the pearl have got you captured/
If their love is greater you can have them/
But who died so new lives can come to the son’s of Adam/
So don’t miss the crucial nature of the crucifixion/
With diction I’ll stress this one/
If Jesus Christ wasn’t nailed to cross/
If there was no blood lost we’d have to pay our own cost/
Who can pay for their own sins/
Next to God grown men become little girls with no ends/
Daily my mind gets revamped/
And on the Lord there’s more concentration than a camp/
God stamps His divine approval/
On the One who puts God the Son in the forefront on the usual/
Fools will bow down to a dead president/
And turn around and say there’s no God despite the evidence/
I recommend we prepare for the reckoning/
He didn’t have to go out on a limb.
