Text skladby: The Cross Movement-Off The Hook
Verse 1: Your lookin' at an ex-crook � in fact, I'm lookin' back at the day I got off the hook � and put the crookin' act back behind � Man I got, no plans to rewind � I used to be blind � but now I see fine, with divine spectacles � Some biblical meats and vegetables, my level's risin' like cholesterol � best of all, I'm blessed to call God my father, I got arrested, y�all � Let me tell you how it happened � check it, y�all � Though I'm tough like shoe leather � I always new whether � or not I did good, I always could do better � Plus I knew a lot of fellas worst than me �
I thought, "How bad could I be?" � � Then I got a letter � a subpoena � to pre-bema � court trial. I thought, "How? � Of course I'll plead not guilty � I'm just a poor child � I figured, "No lawyers needed� � the court speeded � they're mistaken. � I'll take my own case and plead it." � Conceited � I figured I'd throw the judge one line � blow his dumb mind and be out of there by lunch time � Dressed to impress � with my best clothes on � just then the Judge stepped in � with a red robe on � (hold on) � this must be a dream � it's Chief Justice Supreme Judge � Elohim � I'm feelin' sick like disease � cause in His court we all fall short like midgets on our knees � My lunch plans canceled � I don't stand a chance � He'll pull my file � I'm in distress like a damsel. � I'm shocked and in awe then my jaw hits the floor � the prosecutor comes in and it's Mr. Law � (Awww) � No more hope and now I'm waitin' � he's known � for bringin' condemnation � with his open statement � My heart is poundin' as he states what the charge is: � "THE DEFENDANT�S GUILTY OF NOT KNOWIN' WHO GOD IS."
Chorus: I'm in trouble man� I better come up with a plan� Maybe I can make the dash� Or give the judge a little cash� I know that I'm wrong� And I'm trying to be strong� But my rap sheet is long� So I'm singing this song
Verse 2: I found myself jammed in court � and in short � I was guilty of bein' filthy like men in sports � I was losin' � the prosecution was relentless � he pointed out the flaws in my mouth like a dentist � He exposed my very words � gave the court a record of every dirty joke and every curse word � More error when he picked my mind like a psychiatrist � the jury's buyin' it � they're gettin' mad like a scientist � (There's a door) � You know I'm eyein' it � better tryin' split � cause Mr. Law rules with an iron fist � I'm not a chump but I know I gotta run � but I'm not dumb � I see that guard and he's gotta gun! � � No one's laughin' � not a one � He pulled out x-rays of my heart and I don't know where he got em' from � He labeled me a thug�I screamed, "I WAS NOT!"� Objection overruled�then he pulled out my mug-shot � showed the jury me and my boys at the drug spot and the bus stop smokin' much pot in a rough spot � He went on, revealed the lust I hold � plus I'm swoll � �cause He showed all the stuff I stole � (the prosecution won�t rest) � He made reference to my sin-nature � pulled out mad evidence � Statin' ever since I was born I've been fond of sin, on one accord with Satan � like a Honda � With justice on the trail He proved I was gonna fail � put my motives on the scale � (that's it, I'm goin' to jail) � Kind of petro, � but yet I'm thinkin', "Let's go. � How bad can jail be?" � But now they�re screamin', "DEATH ROW!"
Chorus: This is ill yall� Yo, it's for real yall� Can't you see that I'm doom� And I'm about to be consumed� So young� But sin has got me so strung� I'm about to cry� Because I'm about to die
Verse 3: I'm still in court � and in my mind thoughts of death sink � By now I'm funky � I'm hungry plus my breath stinks � The Judge, jury, even I'm convinced � I'm guilty of law-breakin' and it's all makin' sense � You and I only look good to the human eye � man bein' basically good is a human lie � I'm thirsty, but not for water, for mercy � I'm unworthy � the whole court room heard me � The Judge stood with the law book � They all looked � and saw what blew their minds as the one who made the law took off His robe, and became the substitution � � off we strolled � to the place of execution � Gave me a pardon � instead let them bruise Him � justified me and let the law accuse Him � They gripped Him, stripped Him, � whipped Him � They saw thorns and picked Him � they sticked Him, � He made Himself the victim � I felt the pain � I walked home in the rain � changed � not the same, � because I knew I should have got the blame � How could I complain? � I wept on my bed, when on my pillow I found a letter and it read, � "I BLED, � ALL BECAUSE I LOVE YOU, MY BLOOD WAS SHED, � ALL BECAUSE I LOVE YOU, � THEY KILLED ME INSTEAD, � ALL BECAUSE I LOVE YOU, � I AROSE FROM THE DEAD, � ALL BECAUSE I LOVE YOU." � � "He's Alive!" I thought that He'd be back � at the morgue tears poured, then I hear tap � at the door � unexpected but�Yup, � you guessed it. � He had resurrected! � He came in my heart and blessed it � Love manifested � though I wear jeans and not the double breasted � I praise God I got arrested, � cause I had just heard of Him, � now I'm a son, not a distant relative � like a third cousin, word brethren. � Get a load of me � I'm free � I'm property of the only God who died for me � I can see a whole society who need to cop a plea � Sin's got the lock � but God's got the key.
Chorus: Look now� No more crook now� Close the book now� My sins are took now� No more death row� No more death yo� Come what ever� in Christ I'll live forever� Forever off the hook.
