J.I.F.E.

[Verse 1] Opened up my eyes to the world and now I see They got a lot of guns and they aimin' at me Cuz they say I love the church, I don't care about the streets That's so far from the truth, why they lyin' on me? And where am I supposed to be? Tryin' to play my role Stayin' faithful to the Gospel, seen a lot of growth Been a lot of testimonies all around the globe And I ain't braggin', that's from rappin' 'bout what God has spoke It used to be a gift now it's criticized If my heart is for the church, why is this a crime? Whatever happened to the days when the mistress bride Was speakin' life into the body? I'm a bit surprised Better recognize [Hook] Lookin' at the church, got my eyes on the streets Lookin' at the world with they eyes on me What they talkin' 'bout, huh? Jesus is for everybody Huh? Jesus is for everybody Lookin' at the poor, got my eyes on the rich Lookin' at the trap boys and the life of a prince What they talkin' 'bout, huh? Jesus is for everybody Huh? Jesus is for everybody [Verse 2] Opened up my eyes to the church and now I see Them automatic weapons and they aimin' at me Say I'm preachin' to the choir, people dyin' in the streets You'd be preachin' to 'em too if you've seen 'em lately No doubt is in my mind, it's makin' perfect sense Am I doin' something wrong talkin' to the saints? I'm just givin' 'em my all and I'm in my own skin While I'm buildin' up the body, walkin' in His grace But while I'm talkin' to the church I hope they overhear We want the whole world to know we over here I'm talk-talk-talkin' from the lawyers and the doctors To the corners with the choppers To the homies in the barber chair, my whole career [Hook] [Verse 3] Just for a moment can I stand in my own defense? I had a brief talk with Kanye West Did it with Nick Cannon, only told my friends That issue with Tech N9ne? A little more complex And I can tell you impressed I'm talkin' with the stars What good is that if I don't speak to security guards? Something's wrong with my maturity, charity's flawed Cuz I ain't speakin', man this whole family is lost I guess the moral of the story is Jesus Christ came for the notorious, and the saint Grace for the less glorious, and the famed Understand where the glory is, it's in His name [Hook] [Outro] JIFE, JIFE Jesus is for everybody Blacks, whites, rich, poor Church folks, the religious No matter where you are, whatever walk of life Jesus is for you
