The 29th Chapter - Is It A Crime The 29th Chapter - Is It A Crime |
| Chorus
Is it a crime for me to walk these streets?
Dressed in these clothes and feeling these beats?
Must you presume criminal things of me?
Because the outside appearance is all you can see? (Open your eyes!)
And is it wrong for me to enter God’s house
With my cap and baggy jeans looking gangsta’d out?
Must you presume criminal things of me?
Because the outside appearance is all you can see? (Open your eyes!)
Navigator
Young, black and wear baggy jeans so automatically
In the eyes of many I come under scrutiny
All you can see is the outside appearance
So it’s natural that the average man on a dark night would fear us
That’s cool, I’m not offended, don’t feel apprehended
‘Cause eventually my character will no doubt be manifested
I refuse to be labelled by outside apparel
I could wear rags but my spiritual man is outlined for battle
Walk with a royal mindset; I’m the son of a King
When King returns these men in jeans will be governing
Running things, cos what we believe in is the truth
That’s why we’re more integral than 100 men in business suits
You will see that Jesus lives in me, this temple’s clean
Stay obedient to The Father’s will and live out my destiny
If what I’m wearing limits your view then that’s too bad
While I pray for the sick in baseball top and du-rag.
Chorus
McGladius
In men’s hearts are hidden things we would weep to see
The innermost desire is to know what it means to be free
Your climbing a tree, that’s roots are severed and dieing
How long will it be till you tire out and stop trying?
True strength is found in accepting that we’re weak
It’s getting on our knees and washing our brothers feet
What I’m spitting is like hearing a foreign language
Translated it has the power to cease the grips of anguish
Shame is a liar; he’d have us hide our face in the ground
God whispers ‘beauty is found in the midst of breakdown’
Can we brave the storms, let go of our pasts?
The only face that God will remove is the mask
And step-by-step we can re-build and transcend
Not with bricks and mortar, but with the hearts of men
See this world-changed cause we’ve achieved solidarity
As confusion subsides, our new identity brings clarity
Chorus
Phonetix:
They say that beauty is I the eyes of the beholder
But most of the beholders are busy looking over their shoulders
And beauty is slowly leaving this world
And love turns to hate and selfishness unfurls
And now it’s a crime for me to speak my faith
Government saying I’m out there inciting religious hate
The same government that says they’re trying to free us
Are actively inciting the UK to hate Jesus.
And for real the church isn’t doing much better
Instead of getting hands dirty they sit and write letters
Too self-obsessed with what’s going on in the church
To notice the anguish outside the doors of the church
Too many haters, too slow to tire
These clothes are just covering a heart that’s on fire
And if you want to challenge us then first check the fruit
And hear the resounding voice of thousands of youth inspired
