(Feat. DaTruth)
aVerse 1:
Back then if I was a Jew the life that I led would not be common
I would be in prayer shawls anticipatin' His comin'
between 1 and 30 A.D. I'd be under the Romans
thankin' Yaweh that I'm not a slave, Gentile, or woman
now don't get it twisted a woman had to be honored
if you came from out of her womb you had to obey your momma
for the fact that she was a woman wasn't the problem
it's because she was forbidden to publicly read the Talmud
plus only allowed to be either in
the balcony or on the floor divided to avoid problems and
forbade to pray out loud
when it came to religious life for
women it was grey outside
till Christ came in the picture
switched up some customs
now these same women are
providin' Jesus with substance
leavin' Jewish men grieved
they ain't agree
cause out of these women's
means they ministered to their needs
Verse 2:
Look at Jesus maneuva in spite of the culture/
taken ladies and shapin' em makin' em soldiers
peep this
type of behavior was taboo
Jesus seen with Joanna (Luke
8:13) would make Him a bad Jew
but Jesus called some of
the grimiest women
like prostitutes even some of the
slimiest women
in hot pursuit
women are weak is not the truth
and just to prove this point ladies I got the proof
wouldn't be a Timothy without Timothy's moms Eunice
speakin' to Tim in them spiritual psalms the way women
were treated then these are similar times
but yet the men
of God recognize ya strength
who were the first witnesses
of the empty tomb
who birth Jesus being a virgin Holy Spirit consumed
who stood for God way back in them Exodus times
and wouldn't even let em kill they son
(Exodus 1:16)
Hook:
Jesus did walk with women in a special way this
was odd for men in the first century
Look at God callin'
women to the ministry
Jesus did walk with the ladies
Verse 3: (Da T.R.U.T.H.):
Just think about this you're real
fit in Abercrombie and Fitch
and when you in the mall you
thinkin' about how to catch fish
imagine you in Von Dutch
on a date no lust in the place
dude got a crush cause how
you hustle your faith
you ain't tryin' be tuck at the waist
cause you spend more time in the presence of God than
adjustin' your face
listen let me cut to chase and
encourage the beauty of holiness you should just want to
be chased
(FLAME):
Ladies we know it's real and it gets hard sometimes
especially with the pressure of being flawless now
you can't do enough crunches to be the perfect woman
God ain't lookin' for perfect size but a worshippin' woman
ok you gain weight maybe had an abortion
made a mistake had a divorce and
it still ain't over Jesus
forgives this is the gospel
so don't let that stuff stop you
