Lyrics

They say I’m preaching’ to the choir, but they need it too
And see I’m human like the congregation in the pews
No high and mighty, give the praises to the One it’s due
The Almighty only way that we gon’ make it through
They say I’m preaching’ to the choir, but they need it too
And see I’m human like the congregation in the pews
No high and mighty, give the praises to the One it’s due
The Almighty only way that we gon’ make it through

Said keep your word to yourself first and only be concerned with the best earth
Ground you can fertilize, lookin’ wit’ some fertile eyes
That’s full of vision so the people don’t perish
Never wasting’ time ain’t a day that we don’t cherish
In the words of Mr. Asghedom it’s a marathon
I been in the lion’s den and banquets out in Babylon
Where I seen a lot of Daniels who got no Miyagi’s
Not the finer things, we got a taste for flaming hots and Taki’s
Red-handed, we get caught like the pig skin
Astagfirullah to the swine in the pig pens
I know some solid ladies and lads that passed the class
But too many they be scoutin’ they don’t merit the badge, look
My flock different, this a league of eagles
No flops from the first drop to the last sequel
Equal opportunity to rise and to fall too
That’s why every service I’ma tell ‘em to fall through

I’m preaching’ to the choir, ‘cause they need it too
And see I’m human like the congregation in the pews
No high and mighty, give the praises to the One it’s due
The Almighty only way that we gon’ make it through
They say I’m preaching’ to the choir, but they need it too
And see I’m human like the congregation in the pews
No high and mighty, give the praises to the One it’s due
The Almighty only way that we gon’ make it through

Just do what I said / and not what I did/ stay prayed up, like always/ even when you get big/ there was times i shouldn't a made it/ but he protected my spirit/ always brought me through the struggle/ wiped away every tear/ sometimes I wonder why i'm here/ and whats my purpose/ till the day he answered me back, uplift through your verses/ from the hood to the suburbs to the mosque and the churches/ always found a way to bring me back/ when I felt so worthless/ see theres a God in you/
and you notice all the demons hate to see it/ they get cool with you/
then do you like Judas did Jesus/ beauty on the outside /
Inside, ugly features/ ready to drink yo blood up/ like bathtub full of leaches/
So please don't be facetious/ see life got serious teachings/
Gotta learn to play the game and keep yourself up out the bleachers/ you a star so shine bright/ that's the way you need to keep it/ so play yo cards right/ stay prayed up/

They say I’m preaching’ to the choir, but they need it too
And see I’m human like the congregation in the pews
No high and mighty, give the praises to the One it’s due
The Almighty only way that we gon’ make it through
They say I’m preaching’ to the choir, but they need it too
And see I’m human like the congregation in the pews
No high and mighty, give the praises to the One it’s due
The Almighty only way that we gon’ make it through

Cause I’m preachin’ to the choir, ‘cause I know what I’m what I’m doin’
I’m preachin’ to the choir, cause I know we can do it
Preachin’ to the choir, cause I know God is moving
