Resist the System Songtext
von Everyday Process

Yeah, hey, this that holy hip hop, but easy homie
Wait! Don′t tune me out, take it easy homie
We preachin' Jesus, but please believe us
In all honesty, you really need this homie
That′s why we hittin' ya block up with this God stuff
The gospel of Christ, the only truth not allah 'cause
I know hearing this in hip hop can be odd but
If we didn′t, ya only option would be ya grandma′s stuff

And that's cool and all
But since kats love rap, we sneak the gospel in spittin′ truth in bars
Still feel like I'm losing y′all
If don't rhyme about girls, cash, my crew, or cars
Understand, it don′t matter how much doe you get dude
When you go, ain't none of it goin' wit you
To the afterlife, that′s a fact of life
It′s obvious, you need to change ya appetite


'Cause you hungry for the wrong types of things
Like the status, the chrome and the icy chains
You materialistic, a spiritual misfit
You′re at odds with God and you're willing to risk it?
So why it gotta be like that, huh
Forsaking the savior like he ain′t bleed like that, huh
Tortured and stretched on a tree like that
Died, rose, and rolled, but said that he'd be right back

Resist the system
Reject the status quo
Buck against the world′s ways
God's got a better way
Peep the alternative
If you dead in sins, you can turn and live

Resist the system
Reject the status quo
Buck against the world's ways
God′s got a better way
That′s why He bled for you, laid in the grave for you
Raised in three days, the cost of sin's paid for you!


I work a nine to five in Chester, PA
You′d get depressed if I replayed what I see everyday
Why? cats have opted to brush God under the carpet
And all this causes is godlessness
Look the stakes is high
Like the Empire State sky scraper
This situation's major
Turnin′ ya back on the God who made ya

You don't wanna make that mistake ′cause (nah)
If you don't follow Christ way, it's a heavy price to pay
Don′t wait til you die
Then open up ya eyes in hell to be like "dag! Yo, them Christians was right
Ay yo, recognize that we′ve all sinned and a just God just won't let you slide
It′s best you side
With God's Son who came to taste death then rise just to rescue lives

Resist the system
Reject the status quo
Buck against the world′s ways
God's got a better way
Peep the alternative
If you dead in sins, you can turn and live

Resist the system
Reject the status quo
Buck against the world′s ways
God's got a better way
That's why He bled for you, laid in the grave for you
Raised in three days, the cost of sin′s paid for you!

Oh so you wanna be a trap star
Gunnin′ to be the one runnin' things like a track star
Listen, Christ endured the cross, died, and got up
So you wouldn′t have to run the streets and get shot up
And lil' girls learn how to drop that and pop that
I′m askin' myself, ay yo, where they pops at?

He a thug on the strip tryin′ be a coke boss
Or in the club with a chick, tryin' get her clothes off
And this is how cats in the hood think
It stinks the enemy, he got the hood hoodwinked
It's just disguised lies pullin′ the wool over ya eyes
Man, don′t be a fool, open ya eyes
Man, it's so ill
I′m on this bumpy ride through life and I'm seeing tons of road of kill
Dead individuals, I ain′t talking 'bout the physical
It′s spiritual, to bring 'em back to life we need a miracle

God is awesome
But people got a priority list where God ain't at the top, we got a problem
And it′s solvin′ is only found in the God-man
Who suffered the cross to recover the lost that's God′s plan
Jesus the Christ, the way, truth, the life

And yup, He can save you despite
Who you are or what you've done in life
You lost in darkness, make sure you need to turn to the light

Resist the system
Reject the status quo
Buck against the world′s ways
God's got a better way
Peep the alternative
If you dead in sins, you can turn and live

Resist the system
Reject the status quo
Buck against the world′s ways
God's got a better way
That's why He bled for you, laid in the grave for you
Raised in three days, the cost of sin′s paid for you!
