Great song so much theology in it. Shai linne kills it. I'm from Pittsburgh and I remember Timothy Brindle was in a hiphop group called deadly scribes. I watched him battle and then God called him and now he raps for God truly amazing.
If it lines up with God's WORD Holy Bible/JESUS Yah is Salvation YahShua 👑.. Let God be TRUTH and every men a liar!!!.. Hail YAH HalleluYAH never etcetera ‼️
These words always get to me, so powerful So since we know Him, let's adore Him He deserves it, at one time our culture had reverence for Him But over time I guess they quit being impressed Maybe because they saw Him as a hippie in a dress But read Revelation 1, you'll get a different picture He's risen, listen to His description in the scriptures Golden sash around His chest, high claim Messiah Feet like burnished bronze, eyes flame of fire Voice louder than Niagara Falls Face brighter than the sun, John staggers and falls At His feet as though dead, to see Him's to know dread And Jesus so bled so we can go spread The fame of the King is the name that we sing
Ayo I'm back, but nobody was asking where I'd been 'Cause when idols get confronted, they say you cannot win But I'm comforted by knowing through Christ, I'm God's friend And by His grace, I will never change directions like topspin I'm locked in, a God-centered verse in your face He'll satisfy your thirst when you taste His mercy and grace We live in a time of analysts trying to find the catalyst For all kinds of savageness--stats, crimes, and averages But never mind the blasphemous lines of an activist Strategist who maligns the Divine Protagonist Who you think it's all about, the star of the show? It's Jesus Christ, the czar that you owe, you already know It's not wise to defy Him, He'll slice through your pride And life's suicide without Christ crucified (yeah) He's the Lion and the Lamb at the same time Trying to fight Him? You can't be of a sane mind So since we know Him, let's adore Him He deserves it, at one time our culture had reverence for Him But over time I guess they quit being impressed Maybe because they saw Him as a hippie in a dress But read Revelation 1, you'll get a different picture He's risen, listen to His description in the scriptures Golden sash around His chest, high claim Messiah Feet like burnished bronze, eyes flame of fire Voice louder than Niagara Falls Face brighter than the sun, John staggers and falls At His feet as though dead, to see Him's to know dread And Jesus so bled so we can go spread The fame of the King is the name that we sing He tamed death's sting and He claims everything Like the Abraham Kuyper quote, saved His fam, thank Him, man He ignites our hope, praise the Lamb, Christ is dope It amazes me to this day that God uses me Especially when I reflect on who I used to be Hip hop idolator, moralistic legalist New age agnostic, Afrocentric hedonist I was all about the sex, tryna flex Das EFX, Malcolm X, countin' checks I hated the God of the Bible, wouldn't stand to listen I saw Christianity as the white man's religion Used to oppressed to abuse and distress Keep 'em glued to the pews and refused to progress I didn't know the Bible showed true faith in Africa You can't blame Jesus for crusades and massacres Jesus is beautiful, he reigns and he's sovereign Regardless of the actions of those who claim to follow him I focused on fake believers but not on myself I was breathing God's air but leaving God on the shelf When it came to saving myself, this kid was missing tons My reality check bounced, insufficient funds God brought me to a point where I came to realize The Gospel of Jesus Christ, that's where the real lies The only antidote to fight Satan's real lies The scales were removed, now I see with real eyes (Uhh) One thing I've seen that's not so pristine Since the presidential election of 2016 A focus on politics controls the whole populace Exposed so much rottenness, trolls so anonymous But this is my hypothesis, I can say it with confidence: In light of the apocalypse, politics is a pile of bricks So why are we seeing biblical truth Is sacrificed on the altar of political groups? The Lord Jesus Christ is not a Democrat or Republican He is the King of Kings and Lord of Lords who shed his blood for sin Not only that, he died to make us one (One) In union with the Church, Spirit, Father and the Son Therefore, we have been united over grace (Grace) So how the Church gonna be divided over race? Something's amiss as we twist in this abyss Amidst the drift and shift, I've witnessed this White Christians not resisting viciousness Black Christians who persist to lift the fist So let's address the elephant with biblical intelligence When it comes to indwelling sin, melanin is irrelevant Christ wasn't European, that's a proper fact But to quote, "Why does it matter whether God was black?"

Shai’s theology is biblically solid. His amazing lyrics are effortless and unmatched
Shai's lyrics can't be this good naturally, he's got to have a Holy Ghost writer
💯
Great song so much theology in it. Shai linne kills it. I'm from Pittsburgh and I remember Timothy Brindle was in a hiphop group called deadly scribes. I watched him battle and then God called him and now he raps for God truly amazing.
tommy from the burgh as well, great to see what brindle and Shai have done...God Bless
Wasn't he known as Ambush? I remember him referencing this in "Letter To My Friends".
I’m from the Burgh too! Shia is dope !
I was wondering when he was gonna drop.... hopefully brindle drops too !!!
Love Shai linne
🔥🔥🔥🔥The only reason I would listen to Christian rap is when it makes sense.
If it lines up with God's WORD Holy Bible/JESUS Yah is Salvation YahShua 👑.. Let God be TRUTH and every men a liar!!!.. Hail YAH HalleluYAH never etcetera ‼️
Blown away, as usual
Shia and Trip Lee truly are faithful and theological rappers and pastors
absolutely
These words always get to me, so powerful
So since we know Him, let's adore Him
He deserves it, at one time our culture had reverence for Him
But over time I guess they quit being impressed
Maybe because they saw Him as a hippie in a dress
But read Revelation 1, you'll get a different picture
He's risen, listen to His description in the scriptures
Golden sash around His chest, high claim Messiah
Feet like burnished bronze, eyes flame of fire
Voice louder than Niagara Falls
Face brighter than the sun, John staggers and falls
At His feet as though dead, to see Him's to know dread
And Jesus so bled so we can go spread
The fame of the King is the name that we sing
shai's back!! My wife, oldest son, and I have been asking where you've been shai!
This song is just as powerful one year later. I can't wait until Shai releases part 3
Shai bringing heat as usual. Sheesh...
????Real Christian Rap????
Look at the Likes and How it Glorifies Jesus!!
🔥🔥🔥Shai is #1 🔥🔥🔥
Hi, can you recomend me more artist please?

It’s almost like shai predicted what would happen in 2020
Thats what am talking about
Theology before lyrics
Ayo I'm back, but nobody was asking where I'd been
'Cause when idols get confronted, they say you cannot win
But I'm comforted by knowing through Christ, I'm God's friend
And by His grace, I will never change directions like topspin
I'm locked in, a God-centered verse in your face
He'll satisfy your thirst when you taste His mercy and grace
We live in a time of analysts trying to find the catalyst
For all kinds of savageness--stats, crimes, and averages
But never mind the blasphemous lines of an activist
Strategist who maligns the Divine Protagonist
Who you think it's all about, the star of the show?
It's Jesus Christ, the czar that you owe, you already know
It's not wise to defy Him, He'll slice through your pride
And life's suicide without Christ crucified (yeah)
He's the Lion and the Lamb at the same time
Trying to fight Him? You can't be of a sane mind
So since we know Him, let's adore Him
He deserves it, at one time our culture had reverence for Him
But over time I guess they quit being impressed
Maybe because they saw Him as a hippie in a dress
But read Revelation 1, you'll get a different picture
He's risen, listen to His description in the scriptures
Golden sash around His chest, high claim Messiah
Feet like burnished bronze, eyes flame of fire
Voice louder than Niagara Falls
Face brighter than the sun, John staggers and falls
At His feet as though dead, to see Him's to know dread
And Jesus so bled so we can go spread
The fame of the King is the name that we sing
He tamed death's sting and He claims everything
Like the Abraham Kuyper quote, saved His fam, thank Him, man
He ignites our hope, praise the Lamb, Christ is dope
It amazes me to this day that God uses me
Especially when I reflect on who I used to be
Hip hop idolator, moralistic legalist
New age agnostic, Afrocentric hedonist
I was all about the sex, tryna flex
Das EFX, Malcolm X, countin' checks
I hated the God of the Bible, wouldn't stand to listen
I saw Christianity as the white man's religion
Used to oppressed to abuse and distress
Keep 'em glued to the pews and refused to progress
I didn't know the Bible showed true faith in Africa
You can't blame Jesus for crusades and massacres
Jesus is beautiful, he reigns and he's sovereign
Regardless of the actions of those who claim to follow him
I focused on fake believers but not on myself
I was breathing God's air but leaving God on the shelf
When it came to saving myself, this kid was missing tons
My reality check bounced, insufficient funds
God brought me to a point where I came to realize
The Gospel of Jesus Christ, that's where the real lies
The only antidote to fight Satan's real lies
The scales were removed, now I see with real eyes (Uhh)
One thing I've seen that's not so pristine
Since the presidential election of 2016
A focus on politics controls the whole populace
Exposed so much rottenness, trolls so anonymous
But this is my hypothesis, I can say it with confidence:
In light of the apocalypse, politics is a pile of bricks
So why are we seeing biblical truth
Is sacrificed on the altar of political groups?
The Lord Jesus Christ is not a Democrat or Republican
He is the King of Kings and Lord of Lords who shed his blood for sin
Not only that, he died to make us one (One)
In union with the Church, Spirit, Father and the Son
Therefore, we have been united over grace (Grace)
So how the Church gonna be divided over race?
Something's amiss as we twist in this abyss
Amidst the drift and shift, I've witnessed this
White Christians not resisting viciousness
Black Christians who persist to lift the fist
So let's address the elephant with biblical intelligence
When it comes to indwelling sin, melanin is irrelevant
Christ wasn't European, that's a proper fact
But to quote, "Why does it matter whether God was black?"
His blood was red, blood that he shed for men
And if you don't accept the King, you'll be dead in sin forever
That's the bottom line, we running out of time
For the persecuted church, every day is Columbine
What happened to the urgency, the human emergency?
Have we lost our fervency, failing to look vertically?
Only God in heaven can stop this downward spiral
Our only hope for survival is revival
To spurn being tribal, discern who's our rival
Learn from the Bible and turn from our idols
Lord, we look to thee, our God and our Savior
Cause thou hath a way like Donny and Lalah
Put the nonsense to rest, my God's the best
And he can save anybody, even Kanye West
God rescues foul men, I'll testify then
I know it's true because he saved a wretch like Shai Linne
Ye's giving God praise, some won't lift their voice with him
But if the angels rejoice, then I'ma rejoice with 'em
But if it's true that a secular rapper's leavin' his sin
Will that make Christian rappers start talking Jesus again? (What?)
I better stop there before it get too hot here
So let me make this the last thing that I share
We represent the Lord Jesus Christ, no apology
Stay tuned for LT 3: Sociology

Kanye and Shai please. Whole album would be nice.
Huh?
God is love He sent His Son to died and on the third day the Son did rise
Thank you Jesus

Random Thoughts Lyrics
Hey yo I'm back, but nobody was asking where I've been
Let me chime in- I go by the name of... never mind
This man writes them joints
God-glorifying lyricism with a style you can't quite pinpoint
I learned a lot from constant observation- God is patient
And Christ is exalted above the constellations
I've been on the low- did some features and compilations
The controversy started some good conversation
Hit timothy on the email, he'll give you all the details
But right now, my focus is the Man who took the three nails
Two through His wrists, one through His feet
The wrath of God satisfied- the work of the Son is complete
So now there's two types of people
Those who have atonement and those who pay for their own sin, strife and evil
And God don't play- you got to pay- you need to drop and pray
But your motto's "Not today" and you got a lot to say
But your mouth will be shut like pantomimes
When Jesus Christ comes on the clods with more angels than Anaheim
Expand your mind; This ain't about fancy rhymes
Man I'm trying to leave a deep footprint in the sands of time
The truth of God is triple pound cake heavy
But ruthless squads of simple clowns ain't ready
What you know about a rowdy gospel clique
Rejoicing at the judgment when the wicked get their waffle split?
Revelation nineteen... demonstrates what I mean
(You) can't see? Better take some Visine
We shun the famous life- insane spiritual
Life up the name of Christ, yet remain lyrical
Speaking urgently, it's an emergency
The self-centered emcee's favorite word is "me"
Our favorite word is "He"- or should I say "Him"
Since God is triune, I guess our favorite word is "Them"
As for me, what can I say man? It's real in the crucible
My life's a daily funeral, but Christ is still beautiful
I'm fired up for ministry- but business is something
I ain't did nothing and I'm tired of the industry!
I don't create for a check, and it ain't for your respect
I'm enduring all things for the sake of the elect
That's why cats be like, "Shai, man! You preaching to the choir!"
I'm like, "Dog, have you seen some of these choirs?"
They need to be preached to- it's heathens in the pews
It's treason that they choose, looking for reasons to abuse
God's grace- walked up to the altar at the age of eight
Live like the world after that
And think they'll make it through the gate
That theology is straight from the father of lies
In mad pulpits, Satan rocks a disguise
A plot he's devised so sheep remain stifled
Because many times I'm like, "Are we reading the same Bible?"
For instance: (I) recently went to a "Christian" concert
Not knowing what to expect, hoping to see God work
The lights went dark, they introduced him, then he came in
I gotta hand it to him- he was very entertaining
The crowd was insane, about a thousand and change
He was wilding on stage; had them shouting his name?
People in the audience on their way to hell
And son had more jokes than Dave Chappelle
It's like he was ashamed of the light; This is backwards
Christian rappers playing games on the mic
Non-divine topically, trying to shine constantly
You've gone beyond the line with some kind of blind philosophy
With rhymes designed sloppily- this is absurd
Dig in the Word- get your mind refined properly
The gospel's not a commodity- So whether in poverty
Or prospering, it's proper to give shouts to my God rowdily
Why are people so quick to hand the mic to jokers?
Good thing the Lord is in the driver's seat like a chauffeur
His shekinah thunders with no minor blunders
And sometimes I wonder if the Anti-christ might be Oprah
It puts me in a true rage that she pumps the New Age
On television- like five days a week
Yet only a few gauge that that won't get you saved
From hell, so listen- ‘cause my God came to speak
He's warning you to flee from the wrath to come
By putting faith in His matchless Son
I did it now God will definitely forever be next to me
In ecstasy- what a destiny for this heavenly refugee
And this right here is just some random thoughts
From a vessel of mercy that the Lamb has brought
So welcome to The Solus Christus Project
Son, we just gettin' started and we got a lot left!
