The Reason Why (Get Em Up)
When you born again, all things become new
Old things are passed away
Well here's sumthin new for ya
Whoa you feel that
Whoa you hear that
Whoa you see that
Oh the spirit
Whoa you feel that
Whoa you hear that
Whoa you see that
Oh the spirit
Get em up, Get em up
Get your hands up to the sky
Raise em high if you know the reason why He had to die
On the cross, see the pain
Theirs the blood, see the stain
Its embedded in my brain, that why I was born again
Get low, Get low
Get low down on your knees
Ask the Lord to help you please
If you want to be set free
Get em up, Get em high
If you know He had to die
If you saved say you saved and you know the reason why
Get Em Up
Get Em Up
I got my hands up to the sky,
And they wonder and they ponder
And they asking, asking, why
Why I praise Him why I worship, why I'm down on my knees
Saying Father saying Jesus, saying Holy Spirit please
I'm a sinner, not a winner. But through You I could be free
You done died on the cross, and I know it was for me
I was ducking, I was fronting, I was leaning to the back
He bigger than Fat Joe, because He made me lean back
Now I snap, now I wop, I can lean with it rock
I can walk it out for Jesus with a Eastside stomp
Cause He saved me, He raised me
Could never pay Him back
I just speak the Word of Jesus, while I'm rapping on a track
I ain't worthy, but I'm saved. I'll see heaven at my grave
You can call me Canton Jones, because I gotta stay saved
Get em up, Get em high, you know the reason why
I give Him all the glory, cause my sins He had to die
Get em up, Get em up
Get your hands up to the sky
Raise em high if you know the reason why He had to die
On the cross, see the pain
Theirs the blood, see the stain
Its embedded in my brain, that why I was born again
Get low, Get low
Get low down on your knees
Ask the Lord to help you please
If you want to be set free
Get em up, Get em high
If you know He had to die
If you saved say you saved and you know the reason why
We on a mission representing gospel
Wit the flow, representing Christian folk
This is how we living, this ain't just so we can do a show
Past days life grey, now Christ life's great
Eagerly anticipate His plan for the next day
He didn't have to choose us to be His speaking tool
He didn't have to choose us to be the one He used
To disrespect and not give credit man ill be a fool
And so I give Him all the glory for the good I do
We try to live our best, even though life's test
Even though pressure comes upon us like the rest
Watching what we say and do, don't want to kill our witness
Vizun hooked up wit, Lets get down to business
We gotta operate on more than our senses
Being content with merely living is simply senseless
Get this, simply existing this is not enough
Real living begins wit Jesus Christ, so baby get em up
Get em up, Get em up
Get your hands up to the sky
Raise em high if you know the reason why He had to die
On the cross, see the pain
Theirs the blood, see the stain
Its embedded in my brain, that why I was born again
Get low, Get low
Get low down on your knees
Ask the Lord to help you please
If you want to be set free
Get em up, Get em high
If you know He had to die
If you saved say you saved and you know the reason why
Get Em Up
Get Em Up
Old things are passed away
Well here's sumthin new for ya
Whoa you feel that
Whoa you hear that
Whoa you see that
Oh the spirit
Whoa you feel that
Whoa you hear that
Whoa you see that
Oh the spirit
Get em up, Get em up
Get your hands up to the sky
Raise em high if you know the reason why He had to die
On the cross, see the pain
Theirs the blood, see the stain
Its embedded in my brain, that why I was born again
