Secular Music

Greatest Christian rapper ever

There I said it

I said it

I'm the greatest Christian rapper ever

There I said it

I said it

And I was always there for you

When you couldn't listen to

Secular music

Secular music

And I would play your youth group

The alternative to

Secular music

Secular music

Sent away for pre-dateto be raised by the fellowship

I guess it takes a village willing to live off the grid

Lost on me pop culture reference

Well I had no choice but to be alternative

Always had a birds-eye view from the pew

Always knew it's an odd place

To try and make your power moves

How you gonna front when the church nursery's your green room

And the set time's early cause the kids got curfews?

We turned these absurdities into art

Every industry's got an apple cart

But these were the days when distribution meant

The physical packages had to be boxed sealed and shipped

So I got a label and then got labeled

But I'm grateful cause that label made it capable to travel the globe

And talk to the faithful

Never know where a song might take you

And I was always there for you

When you couldn't listen to

Secular music

Secular music

And I would play your youth group

The alternative to

Secular music

Secular music

Well I never knew a prophet who was in style

Dress it up and rebrand the profile

And I never knew an emcee who could take the stage

Throw their hands up towards the heavens and not take the praise

And if the cost of being relevant is two-faced

Maybe stop taking money out the offering plate

Can't complain about them tables that need to be turned

If them same tables done sold your merch

Well from the Gospel came the introduced us to

And ever since we've been trying to figure out our point of view with

Popular music

Popular music

Okay, white boy, you can make 'em laugh and maybe

Earn a spot as the opening act

You could spend your whole career trying to prove you're not whack

For a pat on the back - not bad for Christian rap

I'm the greatest Christian rapper ever

There I said it

I said it

I'm the greatest Christian rapper ever

There I said it

I said it

I'm the greatest Christian rapper ever

There I said it

Not to be confused with the

Greatest rapper who happens to be a Christian

Cause there's too many of them to win
