Lecrae - Violence

Violence - Lecrae

War crime violence should stop (3x)
Violence should stop (8x)
Stop (3x)

Uh 4 fever nine millimeter them all want a heater 
Cause the streets finna heat up 
Six million ways to die choose ten 
And if he don’t die then he probably do em again 
A passionate catastrophe that genocidal blasphemy 
No respect for humanity they resort to insanity 
Head bang on the glass call it window pain 
Jumping out the window trying to get my frame through the frame
Close range when he point I just blank out 
Feel my heart sink when the bang thang rang out 
Now you got your thing out you take life you give it 
You took his life away but you gave yours up to the system 
No one will listen no reason for living 
We bought the lie we can’t be forgiven for all our sinning
Killing is the religion services in a prison 
Ignorance got a slave and our name is in the mentions

War crime violence should stop (3x)
Violence should stop (8x)
Stop (3x)

Bad man mad man gun man bad man
Squeeze bullet pop out body bag man 
No bother with the war no bother with the violence 
No bother with the 6 feet rest in piece silence 

Grew up under 2pac bible verse and two glocks 
Said we ready to die see a ghetto in the sky 
Couldn’t be more wrong than right shoes on the left feet 
Highway to hell and we fighting for the best seat 
No heart bullet’s got no name
Little boys wanna bang but them barely got a brain 
And barely got aim but they shooting for nothing 
They rob a sister of her brother for a couple of hundred
They thinking that life is cheap but it’s expensive as ever 
They’ll be sentenced to forever for them heartless endeavors
I try to tell em see my simmer down brethren but they like whatever
Too scared of being broke to think about being better 
Plus we getting bombarded by all these images of bravado 
You ain’t really a man if you don’t follow these models 
But the weakest ones follow the strong reconsider 
You can forgive much if you understand you forgiven 
War crime violence should stop (3x)
Violence should stop (8x)

Bad man mad man gun man bad man
Squeeze bullet pop out body bag man 
No bother with the war no bother with the violence 
No bother with the 6 feet rest in piece silence 

Violence should stop (8x)
Stop 

Lecrae - Fakin' (ft.This'l)

Fakin' - Lecrae and Thi'sl


I’m riding around and I’m getting it 
They riding around pretending 
I’ve been had and I’ve been done 
And I promise that it’s all empty 
They say they riding bugattis 
Man put some babies through college 
Quit trying to act like the trap is cool
Cause we tired of hearing that garbage 
Hey bags of white pints of lean 
I’ve been on dope boy since the teens 
But this ain’t what we meant to be 
And ya’ll don’t make no sense to me 
You pump fakin ain’t shooting ain’t killing 
Ain’t doing half them things you say you doing
But 116 we stay true 
And they dope dealing ain’t po pimping 
Talking bout my own folk killing 
We on that Jesus soul healing
Soul serious gorillas wild angry can’t tame us 
Been changed can’t change us 
116 you can’t shame us live that truth you can’t blame us

I heard say he bought the block 
In his song he say he gangsta but he not 
Say he making money cash and big checks
While his chain leaving green on his neck 
I’m not impressed 
Guess that make you (2x)
That make you a faker 
[4x]

He was all juiced up thought he was to pop 
Til them boys called hit him with them two shots 
Now he in the station he singing like he T pain 
Them bullets made him lean now I guess he’s 2 change  
He bought that big league cannon wrapped it round the 300
No matter how you put boy it this still a three hundred 
Stop that fakin and that flatching go cut it off 
Fronting like your paper longer than the power ball  
He think he scarface guess he ain’t seen the movie 
Keep on faking til your face down in the jacuzzi 
With some killers in your room with some real guns 
That don’t make noise and they plastic but they real guns 

I heard say he bought the block 
In his song he say he gangsta but he not 
Say he making money cash and big checks
While his chain leaving green on his neck 
I’m not impressed 
Guess that make you (2x)
That make you a faker 

Real recognize real introduce yourself
Careful with that cannon boy you might just shoot yourself 
Somebody wake em tell em to stop faking 
Before they end up lying in the woods butt naked
These killers full of them demons while you pretending you Scarface
You ain’t really no ghetto boy why you faking that hard face 
That just made him furious somebody call fishburne 
Tell these boys in the hood 40 cal hits burn 
And hell burns hotter I turn to the father 
I’m praying Lord forgive em cause they lying like mufasa 
They got these eighth graders with their eyes on a chopper 
I pray the Lord save em before he drop em and make em stop it 

I heard say he bought the block 
In his song he say he gangsta but he not 
Say he making money cash and big checks
While his chain leaving green on his neck 
I’m not impressed 
Guess that make you (2x)
That make you a faker

Lecrae - Falling Down (ft. Trip Lee & Swoope)

Falling Down - Lecrae, Trip Lee, & Swoope


It’s going down (5x)

Uh huh
Ay I know you think you won homie 
But can’t nobody escape gravity

Yessir it’s about to go down
It’s spiraling to the ground but I don’t think it’s go’n slow down 
It’s falling where it’s falling this buildings bout to blow down 
We just going in circles we don’t get another go round 
What happens when your life is level bro?
A storm is coming can’t nobody stay his hold
It’s heavy bro but I gotta let you know 
It’ll help you look beyond this world like a telescope 
Be easy just stick your money in the air 
Til it’s raining hundreds all around your atmosphere 
Be easy come build a mansion sky high 
Til can’t nobody see the roof when they drive by 
But death done hit you like a drive-by
And tell that stuff you’ve acquired you gotta say bye bye 
I ain’t go’n lie you may go down in history 
But everything will go down eventually 

Everything is falling (down) [3x]
It’s going down [3x]
(t’s going down) 
I see the sky falling 
Going down an 808 upon me 
Going down I hear the Lord calling 
Going down 

It’s going down rather coming down with it 
Cold world condition of sin here is the Illness
It’s sickening affliction so erotic sickness so hypnotic 
Desiring this virus even though we know it’s toxic 
Godless following the god’s that’s counterfit 
We lie from departy of the dearly departed 
The darkness is flowing from my nostrils 
What’s so psychotic we still partying like we not sick 
YOLO homie so pour another class 
Roll another one up let’s put on another mask 
Another bundle of cash another shorty to bash 
Same thing everyday groundhog under grass
Man turn the music up cause I don’t wanna hear the truth 
Got the things I’m living for is dead and I’m the living proof 
Shoot the skies falling ain’t no need to panic
Unless we party til the crack seeing Jesus standing coming down 

Everything is falling (down) [3x]
It’s going down [3x]
(t’s going down) 
I see the sky falling 
Going down an 808 upon me 
Going down I hear the Lord calling 
Going down 

You scared? I’m not
There’s a time for everything 
A time to be born and a time to die 
There’s a time when the world as we know it will end
When that is? I don’t know but it is going down

It’s going down holla mayday
Them fiends looking for candy and them dentists got that payday
I seen them child soldiers they was loading up some AK’s 
Ain’t playing modern warfare don’t you know ain’t a war fair
Scales never even but they be triple beaming 
They keep them fiends fiending the devil stay scheming 
And dreamers steady dreaming but ain’t no hope here 
Ain’t no satisfaction in money women and clothes here 
Oh yeah them Christians in Christian aughta share 
And can’t some young men stay the stuff we gotta say 
Cause everything is falling it can happen any day 
Your world come tumbling down and ain’t no way to get away 
You ain’t never go’n say you ain’t here it from Lecrae
If I die before I pray to the Lord your soul he’ll take 
All these drunken nights are empty like the bottles that we break
And you can’t get high enough to escape 
It’s going down

verything is falling (down) [3x]
It’s going down [3x]
(t’s going down) 
I see the sky falling 
Going down an 808 upon me 
Going down I hear the Lord calling 
Going down 

Lecrae - Higher - (ft. Tenth Avenue North)

Higher - Lecrae & Tenth Avenue North


Lead me higher (2x)
And lift my eyes up to the light where
I can see all the pain coming to an end 
Lead me higher into your fire 
Burn away all of the desires
And let my heart begin

I feel myself rising high above my yesterdays
Yes it pays just to pray standing in your rays
Sunshine is reminding me that you rose 
Reminding me that I’m yours and wrapped in righteousness robes
I closer that I get to you the higher that I feel 
It’s like my spirit’s been lifted outside the stratosphere 
Well death is powerless and pain will never lay claim 
And all the world will proclaim your name forever reigns 
Put desire inside of the fire in my bones 
Earth groans to see your return and take us home 
So long for so long I’m sold on 
You on the throne my life no longer my own
Lead me high 

Lead me higher (2x)
And lift my eyes up to the light where
I can see all the pain coming to an end 
Lead me higher into your fire 
Burn away all of the desires
And let my heart begin

It’s Friday morning I’m up to early 
I’m up to high the sky below me 
Like I’m sitting in the plane feeling strange
Can’t explain how I get to experience these things 
Been to plenty cities spent pretty pennies and ate plentiful 
Do a show I come home and feel empty no 
It’s never me I’m glad to say I’ve been changed like presidential campaigns
Used to wake up in the morning pursuing the wrong things 
No I wake up in the morning pursuing the Lord’s name 
Take me higher than the highest 
You’re my hope and my desire lifting me up high despite of this gravity
Lead me higher

Lead me higher (2x)
And lift my eyes up to the light where
I can see all the pain coming to an end 
Lead me higher into your fire 

Burn away all of the desires
And let my heart begin 
(2x)
I can see all the pain coming to an end

Lecrae - Fuego (ft. KB & Suzy Rock)

Fuego - Lecrae (ft. KB & Suzy Rock)

I’m all in preach Jesus til I’m short winded
Come gossip pouring up living water and lyrics
This ain’t rap this bartending
And I’m back in the back snap back to the back
With a pack full of cats that’ll strap with the fact
Christ when he ask to revive in the tracks
Turn they’re life into maps with the gospel we pack
Look I’m of one life but for Him I spend every cent though
I know this life it comes with pain
But it’s through our pane (pain) we window (win though)
Could be made like Him so treat these streets like flint bro
Cause our God can spark up the dark
In the hearts of the hardest departed let’s go

Treat every night like it’s the last night
Like it’s the last time you get no other chances
Get your torches high let’s set ablaze the sky
Passion’s a fire bright and we’ll be burning forever
Set the world on fire let’s set the world on fire (4x)

Never been here before left foot tell the right foot to go
See the whole world coming through the door
Footloose don’t nobody care no more
Come on go hard til the end don’t quit it
Sky to close now go’n head get it
World’s the same it’s all a game
Look at a stranger go’n change a thang
Get up the sky go’n burn tonight
Ye know ya’ll going to learn tonight
Feed the hungry and touch the sick
We go’n help the homeless and love the kids
We go’n move to a place where it’s hard to live
And folks die young and they learn to kill
Light the sky up change your bio
Live for something more than things you buy up
Serve and save learn and change
Trust in the king who can turn this thang
Yeah they ain’t every seen a shine like this
Look up they never see the sky like this
I’m on and this little light I got
Imma let it shine til the day I drop
Heart quit pumping only way I stop
Til then I’m a light post on your block

Treat every night like it’s the last night
Like it’s the last time you get no other chances
Get your torches high let’s set ablaze the sky
Passion’s a fire bright and we’ll be burning forever
Set the world on fire let’s set the world on fire (4x)

See I don’t want no regrets no turning back Imma go and impress
Even if I lead the whole world in press
That ain’t going to put my soul to rest
Keep the name keep the fame world to cold so I keep the flame
Ever seen a child ain’t eat for days
Promise you ain’t ever go’n leave the same
Hands and feet cause these the meek
The world is a mess go’n sweep the streets
Cure for cancer cure for AIDs
Make a brother wanna stay on tour for days
When I get home and things are wrong
There’s two shot dead right around my zone
Ya I pray but faith is dead if I don’t get up and go work my legs
Torches high light the sky 116 no shame tonight
Ya they ain’t ever seen a shine like this
Look up ain’t ever see the sky like this
I’m on and this little light I got
Imma let it shine til the day I drop
Heart quit pumping only way I stop
Til then I’m a lampost on your block

Treat every night like it’s the last night
Like it’s the last time you get no other chances
Get your torches high let’s set ablaze the sky
Passion’s a fire bright and we’ll be burning forever
Set the world on fire let’s set the world on fire (8x)
