How You Livin'

Yeah...
This is to the saints, I got a question for ya
Uh, tell me...

How you livin'? (How you livin'?)
I know you talk a good game, but
How you livin'? (How you livin'?)
But your walkin' is lame
How you livin'? (How you livin'?)
Check yourself God's representative (uh huh, come on)
So how you livin'? Now tell me how you finna live!
(Uh, yeah, tell me) How you livin'? (How you livin'?)
I know you talk a good game, but
How you livin'? (How you livin'?)
But your walkin' is lame
How you livin'? (How you livin'?)
Check yourself God's representative (uh huh, come on)
So how you livin'? (Uh, yeah, come on)
Now tell me how you finna live!

Oh so you say you love God with a passion
Got your gold, members only, Christian card flashin'
Sins all washed, by the blood, they were bathed
Now you sittin' pretty, just glad to be saved
So you go to church, and you never miss a Sunday
Listen to the Word, and you join everyone pray
Fallin' at the altar at the laying on of hands
Sing a few songs, and you do your little dance
Supposedly at church, you were all up in the spirit
But soon as you got home, then you didn't wanna hear it
Completely carnal-minded, and doing what pleases you
And if I mention Jesus, you would be like, "Jesus who?!"
Whenever you ain't sinnin', your time is simply idle
Through the entire week, you never opened up your bible
In a bad mood, rude, with an attitude
And the only time you pray is when you're blessing food
And God ain't pleased, matter of fact, He might be gruntin'
You're trippin' during the week, but then on Sunday, you be frontin'
You're going through formalities in church, but livin' wrong
But God wants true worshippers to show Himself strong
I'm kind of suspicious, because your life is rather vicious
You're thinking that you're holy, but you're really just religious
It ain't about your loot, or looking cute in your new suit
It's all about you growing, God is interested in fruit, so...

How you livin'? (How you livin'?)
I know you talk a good game, but
How you livin'? (How you livin'?)
But your walkin' is lame
How you livin'? (How you livin'?)
Check yourself God's representative (uh huh, come on)
So how you livin'? Now tell me how you finna live!
(Uh, yeah, tell me) How you livin'? (How you livin'?)
I know you talk a good game, but
How you livin'? (How you livin'?)
But your walkin' is lame
How you livin'? (How you livin'?)
Check yourself God's representative (uh huh, come on)
So how you livin'? (Uh, yeah, come on)
Now tell me how you finna live!

Oh so you got a little Word in your system
You're showin' off knowledge, ain't turned it into wisdom
If you don't practice what you're preachin' then you should be quiet
The reason that you meditate the Word, is to apply it
Observe to do, why don't you practice what you read?
I'm tellin' you, faith without works is simply dead
Works without faith is just vain and incomplete
Don't be like Martha, but Mary, sittin' at Jesus feet
So you got a position, now you're thinking that you're higher?
A Pastor, a Deacon, or maybe singing in the choir
You think you're all that? Well then your thought should be reversin'
People may show it, but God don't show respect of persons
Why don't you take heed, before you crumble and tumble
God resists the proud, but exalts the humble
If you're thinking differently, I know the devil fooled ya
Obey God's Word, 'cause your position don't exclude ya
You wanna save the world, can't wait, so you say, "Let's go!"
Evangelizing, preaching the gospel, wanna be a vessel
But if your life is foul, you're limited, to be truthful
Before we multiply, God wants us to be fruitful
Why try to reach others if your life is in a bind?
Jesus will draw 'em, if we submit, and let Him shine
It ain't about the tongue in your mouth, let's not be fools
Check yourself, I'm askin' 'bout the tongue in your shoes, tell me...

How you livin'? (How you livin'?)
I know you talk a good game, but
How you livin'? (How you livin'?)
But your walkin' is lame
How you livin'? (How you livin'?)
Check yourself God's representative (uh huh, come on)
So how you livin'? Now tell me how you finna live!
(Uh, yeah, tell me) How you livin'? (How you livin'?)
I know you talk a good game, but
How you livin'? (How you livin'?)

So how you livin'?
Now tell me how you finna live!

Uh, think about that!
