 Yeah, yeah, huh-hun
 Let the bar go splat (yeah, yeah, huh-hun)
 Yeah, yeah, huh-hun (we 'gon do this, we 'gon)
 Hit me now, huh!
 Yeah, yeah, huh-hun
 Yeah, yeah, huh-hun
 Yeah, yeah, huh-hun
 We on duty, we on them same old blocks
 Different but look the same like plain clothes cops
 On duty, yeah, we some plain old pots
 But you can find a treasure in us where the rainbow stops
 We on duty, we on them same old blocks
 Different but look the same like plain clothes cops
 On duty, yeah, we some plain old pots
 But you can find a treasure in us where the rainbow stops
 We thank God for the faith of the elders
 That came up in the time of Martin Luther the King and the great Elvis (great Elvis)
 They ain't shelf us- held us up on their shoulders
 Told us how to live godly so all the people that trail us
 Can truly testify that before God rested our eyes
 We invested our lives, yeah
 So for the rest our lives
 It's gonna look like we dressed in disguise
 But the treasure's inside
 And it's a pot of gold
 Most of our peers think that God is old, just the man upstairs
 Partly because we keep our God on the low
 So they can't see how our God is involved in our human affairs
 Yeah, yeah but since we're the saints
 We gotta be mindful of the picture we paint
 So every picture they take
 They get snapshots of Holy Spirit filled Christians that got victory ain't
 We on duty, we on them same old blocks
 Different but look the same like plain clothes cops
 On duty, yeah, we some plain old pots
 But you can find a treasure in us where the rainbow stops
 We on duty, we on them same old blocks
 Different but look the same like plain clothes cops
 On duty, yeah, we some plain old pots
 But you can find a treasure in us where the rainbow stops
 Listen, we thank God for the faith of the older
 Saints that have showed us the ropes
 Holding us close to shape and mold us
 They ain't despise, refined us looking for ways to remind us
 Of the mind of God so now when we look behind us, yeah
 It's an army of saints
 Young dudes broadcasting their faith
 I'm forecasting by faith, yeah
 'Cause I'd like to see more of the people of God like the Latter Day Saints
 Black tie, trench coat and a tag with their names
 Or, the JWs, at the door before the Saturday games
 Listen, you can't miss 'em you know 'em
 Probably diss em- you blow 'em off in a second (no, thank you)
 They show us up with a presence that's public
 They ain't impressed with the public
 And I ain't trying to give them more credit than what they deserve
 But, even if what they believe is wrong
 They got a faith that you can reach with your arm
 We're being called dirty
 Dity, we on them same old blocks
 Different but look the same like plain clothes cops
 On duty, yeah, we some plain old pots
 But you can find a treasure in us where the rainbow stops
 We on duty, we on them same old blocks
 Different but look the same like plain clothes cops
 On duty, yeah, we some plain old pots
 But you can find a treasure in us where the rainbow stops
 We on duty
 Which simply means to be on call
 To be alert, to be watchful, to be on guard (we on duty) yeah
 That's why we walk through the mall
 With our spiritual sensitivities up to par (we on duty) yeah
 From the block to the walls of the barbershop
 Where the talk is not godly at all (we on duty) no, listen
 It's not Christian at all so we duck every time the wicked try to pitch us the ball
 They can't catch us involved, no 'cause you know you're a shade
 From the pencil in the picture that's drawn
 Of His character, if you care about the picture at all
 With each photo, we show the world depictions of God
 In every context they find us catch us involved ('volved)
 Being normal, being cordial stitching the raw
 Materials of faith and our culture when Christians resolve
 That spreading the fame of Christ is our mission of course
 We on duty, we on them same old blocks
 Different but look the same like plain clothes cops
 On duty, yeah, we some plain old pots
 But you can find a treasure in us where the rainbow stops
 We on duty, we on them same old blocks
 Different but look the same like plain clothes cops
 On duty, yeah, we some plain old pots
 But you can find a treasure in us where the rainbow stops
 We on duty
 We on them same old blocks (yeah, yeah)
 Different but look the same like plain clothes cops
 Same old blocks, but you can find a treasure in us where the rainbow stops
 We on duty, we on them same old blocks
 Different but look the same like plain clothes cops
 On duty, yeah, we some plain old pots
 But you can find a treasure in us where the rainbow stops
 We on duty, eh-eh
