Interlude: The Verdict

Ladies and gentlemen, we're out in front of the Dallas County Courthouse
Where the Kirk Franklin versus the state of the world case is about to be announced
I'm getting a-, yeah, I think they're getting ready to open the courtroom
Mr. Franklin, how can you say you promote Christians values
When you associate with known secular artists in the R 'n' B Hip-hop world?

Here he comes! I cannot believe the controversy shrouding this man
Mr. Franklin, is it not true that you're not a Christian artist
But really a secular artist posing as a Christian artist?
Excuse me Mr. Franklin, his work with good work missionary Baptist church
Now I seen your video, you won't come and be doing that mess in my church

Order in the court! Order in the Court! (Get your hand off me!)
Order in the Court!
Mr. Franklin, in light of the fact that you've chosen to represent yourself in this case
The court will attempt to show leniency
Mr. Foreman, would you please read the charges?

Charge number one
Trying to take the gospel to the world
Charge number two
Making gospel music too secular
Charge number three
Tearing down the walls of religion
The Jury finds Mr. Franklin in the case of Kirk Franklin
Versus the state of the world, the verdict is-
