Intro
NFTRY

Verse 1: Eshon Burgundy
Out the mud where the plugs gon' live
Where the fathers aren't remorseful and the thugs don't forgive
Where the people are resourceful and the ignorance is bliss
One of the few places in this world shame and pride coexist, yeah
Breed lunatics through the food and the water
Laced with chemicals, confusin' our little troops and our daughter
The attack subliminal, we can't recognize the torture
Equally, our Savior, like a lamb, was lead to the slaughter, uh
Strong tower, the Son of Man is a fortress
In graven images, they paint Him white in the portraits
Rather sinister, but we bring the light to the corpses
The dry bones rise like the Dow Jones
Walkin' out the catacomb tombs by the blood around noon soon
Come alive beloved, we gon' slide with the bride groom
Its no pigs, ain't no unclean beasts
I'm like Pete, once God spread the sheep, I'ma eat

Verse 2: Chvrch
And that heavenly feast is inherited by the meek
They told us all tables turn between time, just take a seat
Ain't no need to clap back and teachin' us to turn our cheek
Lost sheep ? black fleece wrapped in a straightjack'
On the wings of eagles the only way that we flyin' back
Tryna get them times back, no, we can't rewind that
Gotta look within if you ever tryin' to find that
Work with our mistakes, all we need is God and a hard hat
Took me off my line, but watch how the killer crawl back
'Cause sometimes, to hit that three, you gotta fall back
Won't walk back, retrace steps, or even flashback
So if I drop somethin' that wasn't for me, y'all can have that
Snakes in the grass, we learn to keep to the sidewalk
But listen what they hissin', 'cause it hits you till the jive talk
Told us how we die in that water, that why we dived off
The more the newborn dry off, the more we evolve

Verse 3: Tone Spain
I'm with plug killers, and yeah, they sure to comply there are causes
Of course is, deeper than flesh and blood, it's the forces
Worship combined with idolatry is a forfeit
Them doctrines aren't supported, ain't no oil for they torches, uh (Nah)
Whip ? like they forefathers for homicides
But I keep a cannon, I promise it won't apologize (No)
You was never really in when you apostacied
The proper context would've showed you that your prophets lie
Yo, the Spirit await as many just if you respond
Higher ? chasing after goat, they the new Lebron's
They subdue Hebrews till Yah renews the bond
Murderous foes, I'm a new recon, uh (I'm a new recon)
You know we know the truth by the fruit (?)
Know the troops by the callus on they hands and they boots (Boots)
We ain't measured by the money or the land we accrue
With our whole hearts, we follow the commands, we salute
Salute
