Phanatik - The Amazing Grace
(from the album The Incredible Walk)
© copyright 2005

Verse 1: Phanatik
Let’s have a very fast vast cardiovas blast/
To spark your heart and arteries like when artillery flash/
If you’re feelin’ me fasten your seatbelt/
My fault your aint know this heat melts/
Ice grills like rock salt/
Well we’ll deal with that later I’m just the facilitator/
Here to present a way of life full of thrills in the savior/
Couple of pills and a pager does not make an MD/
Couple of ill little sayings does not make a MC/
Couple of wheels on the table does not make DJ/
And me on this track alone would not be a relay/
We will not take it easy let’s turn it up a notch/
I’m trying to pass the baton it’s time to burn it up

Shabach:
We on the corner with thugs/
Streets infested with drugs/
Even in some clubs preaching Jesus is love/
It might be hard at home/
Hard heads won’t follow/
Only in his home town is a prophet without honor/
In England they holler hallelujah Hosanna Hosanna/
Here we hold up a banner for them saints in the slammer/
In Africa where it’s realer than the streets in the hood/
We aint just say it but we showing people God is good/
God is God king of kings and lord of the lords/
Around the country with a message money can’t afford/
Price was paid back inside of U.S. of A./
United saving of America in Jesus name

Hook:
We gonna take it to the west (where we going next)
We gonna take it to the east (and where we going after that)
We gonna take it to the club (and then we gonna touch down)
We gonna take it to the street (just so we can break it down)
We gonna take it to the crib (where we going next)
We gonna take it to the park (and where we going after that)
We gonna take it to ya head/ and then we gonna touch down
We gonna take it to ya heart/ just so we can break it down

Verse 2: Phanatik
A wise man once taught me how to serve the Lord/
Said if there’s anything you won’t do then there’s really nothing you can do for Him/

Shabach:
If that’s so then there’s something I need to know/
Is there anything you won’t do or anywhere you won’t go/

Phanatik:
Man what you talking about/
I go to Wichita which is out/
In the Mid-west helping witches out/
Of Wicca with the Pauline account/
Then I bounce back to the ruggedest hood/
Giving a heads up to the heads that are up to no good/
To my native American heads living that Rez-life/
Come get a resurrected life from the dead through Christ/
Holy Hip-hoppers follow this blazing pace/
As we’re running this amazing race with amazing Grace

Shabach:
For the weak and the lame/
We extinguish the flames/
Tribal music you can use understand and you’ll gain/
Make sure you run with it quick/
For the Lord we spit but the hood wants to see how raw we get/
We go to Atlanta and open with our music bro/
And you should see how many thugs love a Gospel show/
Hitting cats in Iraq/ from France to India/
Doesn’t matter the language when the Holy Spirit is in to ya/
To injure your walk/
If you’re crooked you fall/
We power walk even for my people out in Nepal/
Beyond the calling/
We’re lending out hands to those falling/
‘Cause this amazing race is the true meaning of touring

Hook:

Verse 3:
For some the American dream is a nightmare/
But imagine having a taste of heaven while you’re still right here/
God has arranged it so that those living across long ranges/
Don’t have to be lone rangers/
And remain strangers hanging in a zone of danger/
God became a lamb to appease His own anger/
And if Jesus had never come and been born in a manger/
Then God would still be bent out of shape like clothes hangers/
Now we gonna take this all the way to Bangkok/
And all the places around the known world that you can think of/
To let’em know that this world is on the brink of judgment/
And that it’s time to wake up and smell the Sanka/
‘Cause sin can sink us like anchors tied around ankles/
If you’re not sanctified then your bound to get tied up and tangled/
Inside of it like Matthew Broderick trying to take a day off/
Go a day without walking with the Lord watch you’ll end up way off

Shabach:
School is in session the lesson that we’re addressing/
Is a blessing it’s necessary for you and your protection/
We’re hoping this message doesn’t fly over your head/
Once this song is over your life could be over instead/
If you’re bowing your head to the Father lift Him up in your prayers/
Tell Him you’re sorry and forgive me for living life like a player/
Say word I don’t need herb to reach the sky/
I’m on my way to South Park eating punch an pie/
Yes sir that’s the reason why we’re lesser to Him/
Who else you know that could resurrect the Shabach from sin/
Please dog I don’t want to see you dead at the end/
So for the record we gon’ tell you where we going again

Hook:
