Cypha the Next Day

Cross Movement


Enoch: Rise shine 
For the light has come 
I count all things as dung 
Compared to the knowledge of God the Son 
Serious as heart attacks 
Took off my starters hat 
Put on my martyrs cap 

Radical to the core 
Explore 
The path we travel 
Where God overshadows 
Those whose ways are narrow 
Glorified apparel 
We'll sport like new garb 
We're bondservants of the Christ of the cost 
The true God 
The Father brought us back 
He devised the plan 
That His Son would bridge the gap 
Between God and man 

How else could the Gospel be born? 
If His bodily form wasn't hostily torn? 
This be norm 
Crusin' heavens highway 
Representin' Yaweh 
The fly Way 
The do or die Way 

I won't hesitate to take my last breath 
I'm ready to die 'cause I possess eternal life after death 

Cruz Cordero: Yo, here's a pop quiz, kid 
Whose pop gives 
Eternal life through Christ 
And who rocks gigs 
And digs into your chest 
Like a big ole shovel, 
And puts broken hearts together like a jigsaw puzzle

Yo, pause, baby Paul, 
May I bust that bubble 
By telling you about the God who I trust to turn trouble 
Into triumph

You see, my God be too hard for science 
He brings rocks for my sling shot so I can drop giants 
And enjoy the victory 
As I wave the white flag 
To the God who wrote, "Paid in full" on my sin's price tag

Now mics are grabbed 
Yo, we brag much 
About the Lord who left death in a bodybag cold-crushed, plus

He's tough-rugged and rough like old rust 
His tender splendedness will cause hard rocks to blush, plus,

He'll interrupt your rap program with a slow jam 
And have you all hold hands to "Holy is the Lamb."

The Ambassador: Ahh, what a relief it is to be in Jesus 
I fooled you with the FUBU and baggies without the creases
My chief is
Jesus
---got's to know him---is my thesis
Without Jesus
Even Reeses can't know what peace is
Seek us
And you'll see us
---truth seekers
Youth reachers
Paired up like two sneakers
True preachers
, louder that 22 speakers
If you peep us
You get nothin' new---JESUS!

You know we live among tough guys
Who say they rough ride
But I've seen them meet Elohim and no more tough side

We're caught
You know the Savior's got our jaw stuck
We're awe struck
Cause life's no longer a toss up

And though there's a lot of trouble in it
In comparison it pales like a bucket with a shovel in it

Cause one day we'll be the eternal residents
With the universal President
For Whom we represent.

Tru-Life: Of course this is a kid whose been through metamorphosis 
Touched by his divine Jehovistic scorchin' fist 
His life was what He gave 
He paid so I was bought with it 
So I've got no remorse of any sorts when I'm torchin' it

The mic is my element when I'm tellin' 
Kids be cautioned with 
The fast life without Christ 
Your portion is 
Eternal separation makin' statements 
'cause I was brought from this 
Abyss of not knowin' Christ 
Which was so unfortunate 
His blood rushed from a thug's touch 
And to the floor it went

And even as I'm speakin' 
To me it makes more than sense 
Only perfect plasma could settle up this matter 
He scored a ten 
And now we're more than friends

I'm floored with this idea that he absolutely adored this kid 
Co-heir to the kingdom 
And now the most fortunate

The Tonic: Well now, might ya
Decipher
The first discipler
Angel of Death sniper
Every Superman's Kryptoniter

More tighter, than any street fighter on your team
Filleting all your saying and praying to your figurine

Then there is the hyper
Type of
God hater
Want to be sequel
Equal
With the creator

Accolade thief
Puppet of the Beast
Who's the chief
"Oh you the piggy with the roast beef"

Well if it's you, then let me see you quench the sun
Then for laughs and fun
Blaze up another one

Carve the mountains out with your bare hands
Take the dust of earth and form a man
But what you gonna breath into his chest
Cause even from our best
Comes the breath of death

Prepare for Emmanuel's mega burst
There's only room for one Sheriff in the Universe

The Phanatik: Representing the Kingdom Theocratic 
It's the Phanatik getting' deep as if 
I was aquatic 
Nomadic 
The Son of Man has no place to lay his afro 
Sacred tabernacle 
Dwellin' 
Prevalin' against the gates of hell and 
Stickin' to the cross but without the use of nails 
And you say: Great is the mystery but Mister, we don't understand 
I'm stalkin' while I'm walkin' through this winter wonderland 
With some Timberlands 
Troopin' while I'm scoopin' out the Gospel 
Don't get hostle 
It's complex 
But it's not so hard to understand 
Then again 
It is for some 
The mystery of the one who is and was and is to come 
If I could rhyme for forever 
Twice 
You still won't have heard one-third of the words that would serve to describe Christ 
And still I rhyme 
'cause I believe what the text say 
Trust Christ in the End, and you'll be in the cypha the next day 

"Like That!"
