1st verse
Now listen the kid with the new found vision/ sound Christian/ the old me found missing/ I don’t miss him I’m on a mission commissioned by an Author who’s telling iller stories then John Grishom/ mind twistin/ you would think it was this then/ He’s known for flipping the script and giving them something different/ for instance isn’t death irreversible but the instant you’re found in Him now it isn’t/ how terrific how He fixes our afflictions/ the epitome of all out altruism/ all to Him is going all I have cause all I owe I don’t deserve Him at all yall I know/ all the woes/ all the burdens of time/ combined and loaded down on one man’s mind/ is all too kind and light of a situation in light of the one eternal dilemma that man is facing/ try leaving the land of the living and stand before the Lamb without having your sins forgiven this is a no win situation/ unless you know Him cause then your placed in relationship that’s safe so when it’s all over/ just know that it’s just beginning for those who call upon Jehovah/ we’ll take off this flesh and put on fresh type skin/ we don’t know what we’ll be but we’ll be just like Him/ through out all the centuries/ all who’ve fallen to sleep whether burned at the stakes or sawn into pieces of lost in the deep or tossed into steep pits and left for dead they’ll lift their heads and all get to breath then/ looking back at this life won’t even add up/ compared to eternity earth won’t even matter/ so death is not my enemy anymore/ it’s only a key to a door/ so hit me with a shotty a Maserati a pestilence or sword/ me absent from the body means I’m present with the Lord
Chorus
If Christ is not risen/ we won’t rise with Him
If He’s not returning/ we won’t fly with Him
But since He’s risen and since He’s returning we’ll be living with Him in heaven for eternity
(repeat)
2nd verse
The truth has been cited/ we've learned after Christ' return the bride & the groom are united/ With His introduction, to show sin's destruction/ this body of corruption puts on incorruption/ & shares His perfection/ receive the life He gives & see Him like He is like His mirror's reflection/ He'll soothe in love, no tear ducts, hair plugs, or airbrush/ removal of the worst of infirmities/ With Christ the Lord in paradise restored & have our life's applaud in worship eternally/ the R without Eric B & them/ regenerated from our legacy of sin inherently within plus He's the resurrector/ who brings us back like rewind wheel it up selecta/ rude boy derelicts fiery lake inherited while what must I do to be saved becomes rhetoric/ not a relevant question cuz Christ righteousness sliced our beef like a delicatessen/ When God's done assembling/ no need for the r for restrains but the r that remains for the remnant/ we'll proceed from the White throne/ to an eternal life zone/ thru His gates we'll breeze like a cyclone/ to kick it with Christ who paid iniquities price & He'll sit as the light/ enthroned/ & this home is the city of life
it's the earth's new edition like Ronny, Bobby, Ricky & Mike/ just day for us to live in/ never have a good night that God blessed like his name was Russell Simmons/
It will be splendid/ sin's not remembered/ all cuz He rendered sin's debt rescinded/
Not redundancy but a new scene where life abundantly is routine
