Lyrics

[Intro: Justin Martyr]
This is another Justin-Credible Production

[Chorus: Justin Martyr]
Carry the cross, don't lay it down
Carry the cross, don't lay it down
Carry the cross, don't lay it down
Don't lay it down, don't lay it down

[Verse 1: Aasha Marie]
I'm a bad girl with a good book
Coming with a mobb deep
Don't you get shook
Once you take a peek, get a good look
My crew serve a king that will move rooks
Closer to him without interference like chess
Nobody can put him in check
Castling, watch how my Lord finesse
Removing your evil to bless
So rest in assurance of the next life (uh)
Not worried when I take flight
I'll take off to those great heights (yup)
Hidden in Christ but in plain sight
Chained to Him and secured tight
Only time I get loose is when I share truth
Tryna cover all bases, call me Babe Ruth
Givin' you sweet bars, keep the Grey Goose (uh)
We ain't never goin' south when we got truth (that's right)
Me and hubby in a V-formation
Victory in my elevation, Christ salvation
Lifted us from the depths now my new vocation
Plantin' seeds for harvest, regeneration
Celebrating the lamb imitatin' his hands and feet
Hit the streets in the Land of Lincoln
Opps in media put the bans on preaching
On bops with the gospel teaching
Hip hop the hand you use to hold the pen will find you in predicaments
The more you sin you'll serve the penalty
The Lord will send to end His enemies so please repent (uh)
I got a heavy load, that has a deadly goal
Die to self every day, killy fleshly motives
With the bomb bae, mission is explosive
Fires of our faith to ignite the soldiers

[Chorus: Justin Martyr]
You say you're making the rain
But you could never control the weather
Simple and plain (sayin')
Jesus Is LORD, can't nobody do it better
Looking to stand firm
Let me show you how (show you)
We ain't givin' up, we come to far to turn back now
Carry the cross, don't lay it down
Carry the cross, don't lay it down
Carry the cross, don't lay it down
Don't lay it down, don't lay it down
Carry the cross, don't lay it down
Carry the cross, don't lay it down
Carry the cross, don't lay it down
Don't lay it down, don't lay it down

[Verse 2: Justin Martyr]
Yes, I'm on a track with my wife
You give up that crack for the Christ
We never give up in the fight
Even if that means we're losin' our life
Racks on racks on racks, you demand those
You steady trappin' out the bando
Workin' more magic than Orlando
It's gon' be tragic when you're plans fold
Never fold, never bend
We persevere to the end (yes)
For the truth we contend
It's the gospel, we defend
I've been elected, predestined
Sufficiently protected
I passed the inspection
I'm a sheep not a goat so I'm never neglected
Yahweh, been reborn to trust
Don't stop continue fighting porn and lust
Even when the government's opposing us
Just remember the Most High has chosen us
So carry the cross, don't lay it down
Even though we're burdened for the moment
By Grace through Faith alone, we benefit from Christ
Substitutionary atonement
Come to your senses
Ain't no salvation without repentance
The flesh is relentless
So turn from your sins, or hell is the sentence
Fulfilling the great commission my homie we never
Trippin', I'm hopin' that you would listen
Be broken to catch a vision
Smokin' that cannabis up, you don't know what you're missin'
I'm tryna convince ya life can have purpose if you're a Christian

[Chorus: Justin Martyr]
You say you're making the rain
But you could never control the weather
Simple and plain (sayin')
Jesus Is LORD, can't nobody do it better
Looking to stand firm
Let me show you how (show you)
We ain't givin' up, we come to far to turn back now
Carry the cross, don't lay it down
Carry the cross, don't lay it down
Carry the cross, don't lay it down
Don't lay it down, don't lay it down
Carry the cross, don't lay it down
Carry the cross, don't lay it down
Carry the cross, don't lay it down
Don't lay it down, don't lay it down

[Outro: Justin Martyr]
Don't lay it down
Don't lay it down
