Every time i connect with kevin author/ we end up reppin our heavenly father/ so just relax and chill/ in a minute we?l get in it kick some facts and build/ it? action packed yup packed with thrills and what happens?l fill your back with chills/ i? not rapping to get stacks of bills and rock shows and have the stands packed with girls/ what i need with a one night stand/ i? looking for a love to last one life span/ anything short of that is sort of whack/ caught on your back in more sacks than quarterbacks/ and that? not the way i? rolling out/ no wed no bed so i? holding out/ i throw rhymes like spears and darts while i share my art i hope you hear my heart/ here let me tear off a part and help someone out there steer clear of the dark/ for a second/ just for a moment/ turn off the lord? opponents/ put mtv/ bet on pause listen while i speak he gone call and/ all yall need to do is answer/ it? simple/ we?e sinful/ we?e sin soaked/ he? sin? soap/ plus men? hope/ he
Chorus
Brings hope to the streets/ don? we need hope in the streets/ watch me bring hope to the streets/ watch me bring hope over beats/ don? we need life in the streets/ watch me bring christ to the streets
I? a bible/ i? every chapter and verse/ i? a revival a recital of his actions rehearsed/ i? jeremiah/ a fire burning inside yearning earnestly fevorently trying to turn men to god/ let me ease up on this track/ how come/ it? just a little to smooth for all that/ i? hoping that a brother don? choose the wrong path if i do then that means that i? loose and fall back/ gotta tune out the voices this life is full of so many choices/ like i never thought i? see the day that i would have to choose between hip-hop and rap or like the last election/ i don? know who to choose/ it was avp whoever wins we loose/ i gotta choose between a lifestyle adult rated/ and god? unadulterated word/ now maybe you saying i got a way with words but that? nothing cause some cat just got away with murder and i? not finish my job until they?e all heard of the grace we all need and thy receive christ in the streets
Chorus
