Make War

[Intro: John Piper] I hear so many Christians, murmuring.. about their imperfections And their failures, and their addictions and their shortcomings And I see so little war! Murmur murmur murmur...'why am I this way?' MAKE WAR! [Verse 1:Tedashii] Bang with me Bang Bang Ba-Bang with me Never playin' games man cause this this thing can get frisky! So man if you in Christ, take up your cross quickly! Stand fearless on the frontline -Time to come with it (Ey!) Do the right thing Wake up and let's get it I ain't even in the ring, they're throwin' bows like Riddick (Who?) Persistently attacking me they even in the back of me Its either fight or loose your life And I can't take this passively So what you think I'm bout to do? I'm bout to do what I can do Trust the One who got me through and fight like it was after school Never giving up, steady standing on the battlefield Feet firm to the ground like I stepped on Chapel Hill Flesh feelin' frisky, sin persuades and tempts me Satan cheers me on-guilt followed by conviction Its the same old trap, and we fall like we're defenseless Work your senses, grow in wisdom Stand firm and be relentless [Chorus: Tedashii & Flame] I make WAAARRR Cause sin never sleeps Its got me in a trance You can see it in my dreams I make WAAARRR Man I beat my flesh- to the death Every breath like I beat my chest I make war Sun up I make war Sun down I make war Time in I make war Time out I make war Against lust I make war Against pride I make war Against me I make war Till I die [Verse 2: Flame] Do YOU even have a clue what happened to you when He died? When that tomb got rolled? When He rose in the sky? I think we emphasize sin so much That it makes us paralyzed And glorify struggle so much That it makes us terrified And DE-emphasize the fact that we have been sterilized From our old lives and thus God, this ain't never wise! We gotta snap out of it, we ain't in no straight jackets (We free!) When Jesus died, in our lives something strange happened He gave us power, yeah I know that we're sinners But since He rose He's renewing the image of God in us Now we gotta start makin' WAR Now we can start sayin' NO To the fleshly impulses that Jesus Christ was paying for Now we can start taking the lead just like the Dalai Lama And start going all out just like a suicide bomber! Whatever the sin is we gotta go go go harder By His grace, no time to waste Jus-jus-just like there's no tomorrow [Chorus] [Verse 3: Tedashii] I'm a Christ REPPER-senter, finna stand and deliver! A lot of my BE-lievers struggle with their agenda I drop this on a ADAT, just so you could come playback A hit to be encouraged that rocks you with truth from way back! Listen to it asap! Like you do a Lecrae track I'm spittin written visions to put on heads like a wave cap Sinning? Nah we don't play that That's the way that a slave acts I'm filled with the spirit and tell 'em dawg 'this is payback!' As you begin to copy the carbon copies of Christ And conform to his written image you should be shining the light If you're not, why is that? Is it fear that's been grippin' you cause you scared they'll be dissin you Flippin' birds while they spit at you? If you're not, why is that? It don't matter so bump it Perfect love cast out fear - He ain't save us for nothin' This is a priviledge (Priviledge) Your life to give to Him (Give to Him) So stand firm for him dawg and lets get it in, uhh! [Chorus] I make WAAARRR!
