Lyrics
Entrin a scene, dominated by the green, money talks, greed walks, that’s not why I’m seen, in the doorways of hip hop’s game, hip hop fame not worth the reasons why I came and I won’t compromise, won’t buy lies, cause I’ve been given truth for free, so I give it frequently through rhymes that frequent the churches and the youth groups, hoping to frequent parties too and the radios of unsaved youth, the rap game a road paved by pain, killin the artists who the rap game claims, they get money then they get screwed, often in a business thats more than they can chew, and I’ll do all I can do to give hope, to a biznass consumed by sex, violence and dope, I witness to whom will listen to what I wrote, and the flower blooms when the weeds don’t choke, but if your physically rich your most likely spiritually broke, could you give it all away to retain, the creativity once lodged in your brain, but Satan likes to claim that too, he has you and your listeners to boot, but who cares where you are I care bout where your goin, you might be a superstar but life is bigger than your poems, know Him and you know life eternal, know only sin and you’ll know Dante’s inferno, so if you came in the front and need to get out the back door, you don’t have to run because Jesus can win this rap war.
Rapstars stop segmentin your life, you can’t serve the bizness and still claim Christ,
Rapstars stop segmentin your life, is your faith in the Lord or is your hope in your ice,
Rapstars stop segmentin your life, you can’t serve the bizness and still claim Christ,
Rapstars stop segmentin your life, put down your crave for fame pick up the good fight,
what’s the fruit of being a gangsta, check the graveyard, that’s the destination of those who claim to be hard, you don’t believe me ask Notorious B I G, Tupac Shakur and yes ODB, looks like its not bout the west or the east, because indiscriminately they all rest in peace, but wait that’s not what treasure on this earth promises, that’s cold hard truth and it hurts real hard man, you can get angry that I spoke truth of them, but anger don’t change theirs or your situation, it appears that the rap game has you locked down, you may see its traps but not a way out, but to those who don’t know the Gospel, Christ rose, cause Christ chose to save lost souls, so you can die by the game or live by the Spirit, you can be above the bizness or you can always fear it,
Rapstars stop segmentin your life, you can’t serve the bizness and still claim Christ,
Rapstars stop segmentin your life, is your faith in the Lord or is your hope in your ice,
Rapstars stop segmentin your life, you can’t serve the bizness and still claim Christ,
Rapstars stop segmentin your life, put down your crave for fame pick up the good fight,
One more time to try to make my message stick, your beats are tight and your rhymes are so sick, but not with flava, sick like influenza, you got a lot of nerve to be influencin a nation with highly contagious, outrageous messages yo turn your life to Jesus, what we need is this true warriors, not afraid of producers or reporters, we need people to claim Christ not just at the grammy awards but with their whole life, yo we need the cross to mean more than just ice, we need a dedication of thanks for the paid price, now I know theirs fear and struggles with your pride, and I know that theirs danger the media might crucify, but what an honor, what a glory, to be Christians fulfillin Christ’s story, imagine a 180 degree turn of a hip hop generation that finally learns,
Rapstars stop segmentin your life, you can’t serve the bizness and still claim Christ,
Rapstars stop segmentin your life, is your faith in the Lord or is your hope in your ice,
Rapstars stop segmentin your life, you can’t serve the bizness and still claim Christ,
Rapstars stop segmentin your life, put down your crave for fame pick up the good fight,
Mase we need you to stand up,
P. Diddy we need you to stand up,
