Christian Is My New Gang - Şevin

Yuh For real

Aye

The World is sick but Jesus been the cure

And you gon' need it but

You can’t see it when your lens is blurred

Went from a menace to apprentice stuck within his word

He redesigned this heathen’s mind

The reason why I minister

I’m seein' lately people hate me

I ain’t insecure

So I’d rather be innovative than be immature

The blasphemous should not be asking what the tension’s for

The Church is Jesus' bride

Be respectful when you mention her

Yeah

I’m really bout it if it’s really bout it

Learned to put my hand in dirt

And work to pull some scrilly out it

They say you scared then go to church

Get that out here bro

Ya’ll niggas scared to go to church

But I’m out here though

Yuh

Where I’m from it’s rowdy like a rodeo

That typa lift’ll knock you stiff like you got polio

I seen hella niggas bloodied in they prime

With they mind on they money and they money on they mind

For real

Christian is my new gang

If we’re prisoners in time

I’m a lifer for the truth mane

Righteous is my new swang

Yeah

Christian is my new gang

Christian is my new gang

If we’re prisoners in time

I’m a lifer for the truth mane

Righteous is my new swang

Christian is my new gang

Yuh

For Real

And it started with us partnering for civil rights

Now look how far from what we are from being civil, right?

Place us in one’s space and time

We can’t have one civil night

Hatred is a brown recluse

Big ol wound, little bite

I chopped with rellies

Bout the status of the state we in

They say that their mistakes

Is because racism is making em

Now racism’s to blame

For causing pain and what it takes from em

But God can heal us all from it

But we don’t take our place with ‘im

We judge ourselves as good so we don’t seek no grace from Him

We bit from the forbidden fruit

And learned we love the taste of sin

It’s genocide and we’re the worst despite our late begin

You think you fly

You just a bird inside a atrium

Yuh

And what you bangin' isn’t worth your own

We don’t own a single house but yet we call the turf our home

Claim we love our people

But will kill them over selfish greed

I just hope this helps us see

That we are self deceived

Christian is my new gang

If we’re prisoners in time

I’m a lifer for the truth mane

Righteous is my new swang

Yeah

Christian is my new gang

Christian is my new gang

If we’re prisoners in time

I’m a lifer for the truth mane

Righteous is my new swang

Christian is my new gang

For real

For those that know me it’s a known fact

Kept it tucked under the throwback

And the towel on the muzzle kept it muffled if we blow that

Far as hustling I sold sacks

And not just them boy

I sold straps

But never to the other side

Can’t trust em and we know that

There’s rules and regulations

You break em you could never go back

I never spoke reckless to detectives I kept a cold jack

You ever seen blood leaking out a face that took a few

And you could tell he done

Just by the way he looks at you

I tell em they should bail cuz it’s a horrifying life

Went from celebrating hell now I’m glorifying Christ

Purple flag on heezay

Crosses on that G-thing

Symbolized the cost He paid for all of us to be changed

Too dumb when I was young to say I was the smartest nigga

Always been a target hitter

Plus I’ll take some charges witcha

Nothing overstated I don’t claim I was the hardest

But I’m down for what I stand fo

So I’m standing up regardless

Nigga
