Unpopular Opinion (feat. Steven Furtick)

Often the first impulse when God really shows up in your life is fear
And it is only in pushing through the fear that you find the love of
God on the other side of your fear

My homie said he don't believe
In Christianity wanted to reel me into a topic and I obliged
Took a look in his eye
Asked him exactly who do you think we're created by
He said Allah
I said God
He said Allah
I said God
He said Allah
I thought for a second and said more
I asked what exactly you think we're created for
He said for a purpose I'm sure
His momma told him we are servants of most high
He said Mohammed I laughed a bit and said false prophets and false promise
He said Christians were taught to fight
I said suicide bombers and he said pride and I stopped

Then the Lord God formed the man of dust from the ground
And breathed into his nostrils the breath of life
And the man became a living creature

Pride is an aspect of the enemy
This is what drained me of my energy
Stuck in my pain like an anemone
Showing my pain like an achievement
Hiding my face acting like I dun gotten serenity
Bottles of Hennessy faith is a sesame lost an amenity
Homie was begging me speak I told him I am not
A true Christian and most of us ain't
Accept Jesus and you will be saved
But most of us fake
And most of us are hypocrites and most of us claim
And most of us sin daily and most of us judge
And most of us walk daily abandoning love
And most us are consumed by love of cash
And some of us help
But most of us can't
And honestly most of us do not really reflect
Christ living in a world that we do not affect
And most of us judge
And most of us next
And most of us this
And most of us that
And most of us this
And most of us that
And most of us this
And most of us that
And most of us this
And most of us that

But not everybody
Look at life like the story of Noah
Said if only just one could abandon pride
He said wait
So Christians abandon Christ
He said what kinda religion
I said what kin
You got it wrong this supposed to be more a relationship
With a Savior who said go therefore
Teach the nation of my greatness and you baptize them
He said wait
But y'all only chastise them
I said true
But that's cause we lost our ways
If you could see the people back in the olden days
He said this is why I won't be Christian
Don't nobody stay consistent
And now I'm lost for words

How much does it cost to be a good person
I thought it was free I see good servants
Out in the world not even in the church
All of my people facetious
All of my people are still sheep they following preachers
Not doing what they are hearing as soon as they're leaving the church
"I'll pray for you"
That's a catch phrase
For a catch 22
You lose and lose
We never help
How much does it cost to think about getting blessing
To more people other than ourselves
The Bible stuck on a shelf
The Bible stuck on a shelf
I repeat
The Bible stuck on a shelf
The Bible stuck on a shelf

The promise is wrapped in doubt for a reason
Because if he gave you proof you wouldn't need faith
