(Chorus) 3x
In the city
We need a savior to save us
So stay prayed up through the nations
(Verse 1)
When I was living life as a thug
Knew I wasn’t heading to the heavens up above
Most deaths are caused in the streets
But it’s my flesh and the enemy trying to kill me
Black on black
White on white
Crime
Why we killing each other
When we could be chasing The glorious light
Take the negative and someone's lifestyle mix it up in a pot
You can bring the greater out of them
Asking God can u help us
Save us
From the drug war
Yea man, I ain't the plug no more
4 shots going down on the 8th block
By a cop who killed a man for a jaywalk
Its like day by day everybody's getting outlined in chalk
Either it's by a homicide or an overdose on a drug like crock
Can somebody tell me this is just a dream
They can't cuz this is actually reality
Living in poverty
Cuz there's always a robbery
We need to spread the word about this
To shed the peace and love
All I'm seeing is my homies blood
(Bridge)
City’s will bow down
If ya listen carefully
You can hear the trumpet sound
(Chorus) 3x
In the city
We need a savior to save us
So stay prayed up through the nations
(Verse 2)
It just started from gang bangin to dope slanging
Now tell me what's that making
NYPD, LAPD crooked cops killing people in these streets
Let's stop chill and take a seat
But ya know the ghetto ain't a really bad place
It's just the people out here stuck in their wicked ways
Gangs and cops start an outbreak
Then lives will be at stake
Seems like grace and love is hard to come by
Some strung out on drugs looking for a high
Holy Spirit make your stand tonight
This isn't new
Seem like no matter what we do
Still going to be on the news
I'm on a new stream
Here's for the real G.O.D the one true king
Shout out to you
I see a homeless man on the corner holding up a sign
Will work for food step up be the better half
Love them like Jesus would
It could lead u to a better path
(Bridge)
City’s will bow down
If ya listen carefully
You can hear the trumpet sound
(Chorus) 3x
In the city
We need a savior to save us
So stay prayed up through the nations
(Verse 3)
I may live in the world
But I don’t live of the world
I’ve tried to fix my mistakes
Like my name is earl
No price is on Christ so put away your golden pearls
Craving for more
Don’t settle for less
Every knee will bow
Tounges confess
This is not a test
No state of mind
This is a kingdom mind
We call you abba
To heal the blind
In the city
We need a savior to save us
So stay prayed up through the nations
(Verse 1)
When I was living life as a thug
Knew I wasn’t heading to the heavens up above
Most deaths are caused in the streets
But it’s my flesh and the enemy trying to kill me
