One of the reasons I love Cross Movement is the lyrics. Rap I can do with or without, but the way that Cross Movement puts the lyrics in these songs is just shy of awesome.
Verse 1)
- Blind as a bat, or better yet blind as three mice
- Either way you look at it the crooks get it
- Dont look at me like Im pathetic the book said it
Verse 2) Haff-ta put the whole verse. It is perfect for our culture. (Kinda graphic, but so is the Bible)
- Do you wanna be the kind of sis
- That does the work wit a kiss
- Workin her hips, and gotta use a skirt and a twist
- Im certain of this, love's what you're searchin for Miss
- But earth's an abyss, so love you're certain to miss
- Cause most guys from birth, grow to be guys that flirt
- Puttin sweet lies to work so as to disguise the purpose
- Which is to shoot the gift, just to get you to shift
- He's got the tools to get in the skins
- You know that's been the trend
- Why would you get a wife, when he just have a friend
- And with a little gin after a spin in the benz
- Wit some R&B he can hit it again and again
- I know its sort of bugged out now Im sailin on the waters of
- Experience , I know a wife and a daughter's love
- So I'm up on things that pertain to "dime pieces"*
- My mind reaches to share things that remain after my rhymes ceases
- Let him keep his cheese, never let him eat for free
- Let him meet your needs, and never let him sleep and leave
- God's plan is that you marry, so the creep must cleave
- And learn about a women's worth like Alicia Keys
- Dudes and dudettes, should both do that
- So Im exposin this like film when light gets to it
- You need to learn about the way the righteous do it
- You gotta see what life looks like when Christ get to it
Verse 3)
- Man, I be hopin all people will all cry out
- To the Saviour cause the Judge ain't lettin ya'll slide
- Cause He's the Love Boat, now but I panic
- Cause ya'll don't understand that He'll be the Titanic
- And take under, some men wit a great thunder
- He's the great wonder, shunnin Him's the great blunder
Last Line)
- Enough said, come on and be set free
...and I don't just like the way they use the English language, as far as I can tell (with the CD's that I own) they seem theologically sound. So enjoy, if you can.
*A "dime piece" is a beautiful woman. I looked it up and recommend nobody else look it up due to the language that is used in the Urban Dictionary.
