I Felt That

Lyrics

All glory to the most high God
 Yeah
 When David told Saul "I could have killed you
 But I respect you as my king," I felt that
 When Daniel said "It's not me, but it's God
 Who interprets these dreams," I felt that
 And when the Hebrew boys said "We serving God
 Whether we live or we die," I felt that
 And when Christ looked toward the Most High
 And said "Forgive them 'cause they blind," I felt that
 Yeah yeah, oh yeah, I felt that
 Approaching taboo subjects
 At the risk of seeming insensitive and suspect
 Dodging the full blitz of those robbing the pulpits
 Hundreds of years of them never making it clear, they appear
 Racially biased when we all should be united
 In the church, the human race gets interpreted in its truest state
 There is no debate for Galatians 3:28
 This feel like provocation, I know that's your first observation
 That's kinda how I feel when it comes to these denominations
 The gospel is distributed equally, there's no debating
 It's like the truth get taught and preached but it is never learned
 Like our cooperation with God is only on our terms, it's like
 "If I'ma do it, then I'ma do it like this"
 "I'ma make a graven image and I'ma show Him like this"
 "I only promote this even though this doesn't exist"
 "This a false image but I taught
 You to believe that this is authentic"
 Where's the conviction when you need it, baby?
 It's a cold world and I been feeling anemic lately
 My fascination with the facts is what got me seeming crazy
 To you and all your passive aggression that is the proof, pastor
 While you bless the food Please ask for humility
 You can't hate my color then call
 Me brother, that's what be killing me
 Don't believe the gospel that the Klan preached, that's wickedness
 Can't study the scrip' and omit the truth, that's ridiculous
 God formed man out of the African dust
 If that goes against your theology, I would imagine that's rough
 But listen, and find prescription in the God that provides
 And has the power to subside the pain while killing your pride
 And if we're called to read the chapters in His house
 That same call come with a charge
 To give an accurate account, I said it
 If we're called to read the chapters in His house
 That same call come with a charge to give an accurate account, salute
 When David told Saul "I could have killed you
 But I respect you as my king," I felt that
 When Daniel said "It's not me, but it's God
 Who interprets these dreams," I felt that
 And when the Hebrew boys said "We serving God
 Whether we live or we die," I felt that
 And when Christ looked toward the Most High
 And said "Forgive them 'cause they blind," I felt that
 Yeah yeah, oh yeah, I felt that
 Okay, cops killed a na
 You more mad for saying na than the cop that killed 'em
 And I don't get the picture
 I know that children listening
 Rather show 'em how to stand for truth
 Than do a youth group and tell 'em "jump, jump"
 This is not your tap-dancing Sambo type of flow
 This that revolutionary get your foot up off my throat
 For every ancestor raped, burned, and lynched on a tree
 Pray to Yah' for liberation, He said that starts with me
 So I hopped up in that Word, started praying with my feet
 I learned that from Frederick Douglass
 Our history more than hustling
 Our destiny more than selling dope and popping benz
 Or warring in the street
 Over rented properties that we don't own
 On "Stranger," I rapped to you
 "Change the World," I sang to you
 Online I talk to you, I'm thinking you don't wanna listen, fine
 I'll pray for you and then reclaim my time like Maxine
 That living water washed my soul clean, I got a mission
 Protesters marching, cops hit 'em with batons in they knees
 Our world in disarray, O Adonai, what does it mean?
 Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done on Earth, justice and peace
 Forgiveness for our souls for not holding Christ as the King
 Kingdom come, kingdom come
 Your kingdom come
 Kingdom come, kingdom come
 Your will be done
 When David told Saul "I could have killed you
 But I respect you as my king," I felt that
 When Daniel said "It's not me, but it's God
 Who interprets these dreams," I felt that
 And when the Hebrew boys said "We serving God
 Whether we live or we die," I felt that
 And when Christ looked toward the Most High
 And said "Forgive them 'cause they blind," I felt that
 Yeah yeah, oh yeah, I felt that
