Goodness To Repentance

Lyrics

Yea... let me talk to you for a min
 You know I try to keep my ear to the streets right
 You know I hear so many war stories man
 I hear about so many times cats have been spared
 Cats should've been dead
 You'd think that would be enough for cats to turn to Christ
 But I guess sometimes you gotta learn the hard way
 I done heard too many war stories
 Seen too many spared
 While God still sustain cats that don't even care
 Yea you should've got shot
 When dem bullets ricocheted
 Yea you shoulda got robbed
 But grandmamma went to pray
 Yea you shoulda got hit by that truck on the road
 Ain't no luck when you stuck
 With bullet holes in your clothes (homie bang bang)
 Five shots could drop me
 I took it and smiled
 That's a quote from Tupac
 Wow... look at him now
 Everyday cats duck, dodge, strays from a range
 You think it's simply that them shooters just ain't shooting with aim
 Naw, a Teflon vest
 Ain't the only thing that's stopping them bullets from eating through your chest
 [Chorus:]
 How many rappers got shot that's then died?
 How many rappers got shot that's alive?
 How many shots going bang bang?
 Cats trying to gang bang?
 How many trying to please God?
 God's goodness should lead men to the repentance (it should make you wanna change)
 Goodness should lead men to the repentance (it should make you wanna change)
 Goodness should lead men to the repentance (it should make you wanna change)
 Goodness should lead men to the repentance (it should make you wanna change)
 50 Cent took nine shots look at his face
 If you look a lil closer you can see God's grace
 Lloyd Banks got shot drove himself to the doc
 Young Buck got shot but he's still on the clock
 Beanie Siegel got shot thank God he's alive
 To add to the list
 Fabulous got shot in the thigh
 Even Camron took one in each of his arms
 Are you alarmed? Is this enough to seek a reform?
 Even The Game got shot but he still breathing
 That's a real reason for people to seek Jesus
 Complete pieces to the puzzle to come
 When His goodness leads men to put their trust in the Son... yes
 [Chorus]
 Listen...
 What does it take to make a man turn (repent)?
 When God has offered the opposite of everything that man's earned?
 You see God holds every breath
 Of every lung that's in every chest
 Until it's time to be buried next
 His goodness should make us throw up our white flags
 Considering the fact that our souls have a price tag
 That only Christ could pay the whole with His life (Dag!)
 Then He rose while we roll in a nice jag
 Man, see every smile that you crack
 Every dollar that you make dirty God allowed that
 All the times that you said, man that should've been me
 It could've been me laying six feet deep
 All the chances that you had, man you should've been stopped
 When them cops stopped you, locked you in the handcuffs
 Now you scot-free
 And refusing to live Godly
 Though you want the benefits of being God's seed
 [Chorus]
