God’s in the spot you can like it or not
So rip the knob off the volume when you give this a shot And raise your hands as the slam starts to thicken the plot Openin’ eyes to the lies of the enemies’ lot So run like the wind from the sin of your past Keep your eyes on the prize when they put you on blast It’s the Christ on the cross it’s humanity’s shot It’s a worldwide call to everything that we’re not This is the slam, this is the one This is the slam, this is the one This is the slam, this is the one We gonna do it like it ain’t been done before This is the slam this is the one We gonna spring you like you ain’t been sprung They came from the cities and towns all around To see the longhaired preacher from the desert get down Waist high in water, never short on words he said Repent the kingdom of heaven can be yours But he stopped in the middle of his words and dropped Down to his knees and said behold the Lamb of God He’s the one, the slam don’t you people understand? You’re staring at the son God’s reaching out his hand This is the slam, this is the one This is the slam, this is the one This is the slam, this is the one We gonna do it like it ain’t been done before This is the slam this is the one We gonna spring you like you ain’t been brung This is the slam, this is the one We gonna do it like it ain’t been done before This is the slam this is the one We gonna spring you like you ain’t been sprung The father slammed it like Shaq For Latinos and Blacks Packin’ them straps And Caucasians hooked on Ecstasy and the crack Stacked the sins of this world to his body And conquered evil and hell Then snatched the keys of death in one breath and unlocked the cell He rose on the third I’m tellin’ you partner, its actual fact Just like TOBYMAC and Boney Soprano up on this track We slam dunkin’ and keep it jumpin’ like jumper cables And keep the crowd rowdy like Jesus tossin’ them temple tables This is the slam, this is the one This is the slam, this is the one - |

Fresh air, (sigh),
Is what I needed I ventured through my door Proceeded Into the streets of this place I had to lower my shades to shade my face Still squinting from the glare What I saw was unfortunately rare I rolled upon a variety The sight that moved my heart Deep inside of me I head some cats rockin mics Saw mad stunts on BMX bikes Sons and daughters Standing for their rights A city scene lit Well through the night Tilted trucker hats with tats Hittin high hats Pinstripe sellard suits Invested mad beats Truth Distinct how we live it Many members but only one spirit. Individualized You're on the same side Separated verticals Huh! We still ride Well we bring it from nice to gritty Read the sign kid, Diverse City. |

We've been down to the bottom
Stories we got 'em, when we hit rock bottom If you been there put your hands in the air To let the lost know that someone cares Cause we've been down to the bottom Stories we've got 'em, when we hit rock bottom If you been there put your hands in the air And let somebody know that the Most High cares I never knew that it would feel like this When the two that raised you up and call it quits Nobody told me 'bout the emptiness When the place you call home is closed for business I push the pain down, I gotta "get by" Always knowin' in my heart that it ain't gonna fly Rock bottom's never felt so near before And if pain is God's megaphone it's loud and clear So hold me now father, human love ain't enough I've failed and been failed by the people I love But your faithful arms they surround me And any other soul who has to sail those seas Of a broken family Been so many times that I've been close to rock bottom Tryin' to look for answers but nobody's got 'em Like the time my mother looked me in the eye Tryin' not to cry, tellin' me the cancer might cause her to die How can this be, I thought that God loved me? So why would he try to take my mother from me? And as I cry myself to sleep at night, holding on my pillow tight He spoke to me and said that everything gonna be alright So I tried to fight all the pain that it caused Try to move on and I try to stay strong So put your hands up, hey, if y'all are feelin' me And put your hands up for everyone to see So put your hands up, we all a family So put your hands up, in unity, in unity I've been there too When everything falls apart and the best you can do is Get through each day wonderin' will this never end? Is it always going to be this way? And the greatest lie you've ever been told is that You're the only one to ever walk on this road And that you'll never see the light of dawn, so we came together to say Hold on Cause we've been there and found our way home I promise you that you're not on your own One day this will pass, God will see us all through God will see us all through, God will see us all pass through |

I'm staring unaware cause I'm in the zone
It moves in like a fog on a seaside road Paralyzed by the signs and the deafening tone I'm on a lock like a jock with a broken bone I can see the real game and I want to get in it I can read your headline and I am dying to spin it Man down in the clutches of his own desire I got to find the kind of speed that will put out a fire I need a getaway car, I gotta get out of here fast and far I need a getaway car, I wanna flea what I see, wanna be where you are I need a getaway car, I gotta get out of here fast and far I need a getaway car I put my hand on the wheel before I change my mind I put my foot to the floor and I start to fly I keep my eyes on the road so I don't get spun around To the nightmare I've been delivered from It's a brand new day, I drove hard all night I thank God for the sun as it starts to rise I take a peek in the mirror and my past is gone I'm feelin' free as a bird with a new song Now I ain't gonna stop 'til I find your peace I gotta get to the place where it's you and me So fill'er up now, and let's roll Gonna drive through the night 'til you touch my soul Said I ain't gonna stop 'til I find your peace I gotta get to the place where you're all I need So fill'er up, let's roll I'm gonna drive through the night till you touch my soul Let's ride all night, let's shift this thing into overdrive |

One Phenomenon, one phenomenon
And it just can't be stopped ya'll We rock forever, we stop whenever We rock forever, we stop whenever We die whenever, we live forever It's a phenomenon that can't be stopped Forever, we stop whenever We rock forever, we stop whenever We die whenever, we live together It's a phenomenon that can't be stopped now Everybody out of the way It's monumental at the end of the day So come what may But it's a wonder that will never fade A marvel that will tickle the mind It's unaccountable in actual time But when we're free They will see what we were destined to be Well I'm alive and I'm enjoyin' the ride But livin' for the moment I die Cause when I'm done, we will run eternally as one My soul is up, up and away My body dead right where it lays I'm movin' on going gone into the new beyond This is the drama you've been waiting for A new dimension that is yours to explore Such mystery is looming at your door This is the moment I've been praying for |

No one believed her No one imagined it was true No one could see her winter haven coming into view She says she's seen the land beyond She said she's walked her Babylon She felt the cold beneath her feet And time stood still where the winter won't sleep (where the winter won't sleep) Chorus I've seen a new world... like nothing before... just step through the door right Into a new world... Into Narnia I've seen a new world... like nothing before... just step through the door right Into a new world... Into Narnia All hope was fading... a darkness far beyond their might But love came crusading on the wings of healing sacrifice He gave them something to believe Came back in all His majesty He conquered evil through His love and handed them the land they were dreaming of Chorus I've seen a new world... like nothing before... just step through the door right Into a new world... Into Narnia I've seen a new world... like nothing before... just step through the door right Into a new world... Into Narnia ... I never dreamed it but it seems that He's alive again Shaking His mane He's just the same as I remembered Him The spell is weakening with every breath He's breathing in And when He roars she can't ignore that He's our king again There, just beyond the lamppost Chorus I've seen a new world... Into a new world... Into Narnia I've seen a new world... like nothing before... just step through the door right Into a new world... Into Narnia I've seen a new world... like nothing before... just step through the door right Into a new world... Into Narnia |

I'm staring unaware cause I'm in the zone
It moves in like a fog on a seaside road Paralyzed by the signs and the deafening tone I'm on a lock like a jock with a broken bone I can see the real game and I want to get in it I can read your headline and I am dying to spin it Man down in the clutches of his own desire I got to find the kind of speed that will put out a fire I need a getaway car, I gotta get out of here fast and far I need a getaway car, I wanna flea what I see, wanna be where you are I need a getaway car, I gotta get out of here fast and far I need a getaway car I put my hand on the wheel before I change my mind I put my foot to the floor and I start to fly I keep my eyes on the road so I don't get spun around To the nightmare I've been delivered from It's a brand new day, I drove hard all night I thank God for the sun as it starts to rise I take a peek in the mirror and my past is gone I'm feelin' free as a bird with a new song Now I ain't gonna stop 'til I find your peace I gotta get to the place where it's you and me So fill'er up now, and let's roll Gonna drive through the night 'til you touch my soul Said I ain't gonna stop 'til I find your peace I gotta get to the place where you're all I need So fill'er up, let's roll I'm gonna drive through the night till you touch my soul Let's ride all night, let's shift this thing into overdrive |

God’s in the spot you can like it or not
So rip the knob off the volume when you give this a shot And raise your hands as the slam starts to thicken the plot Openin’ eyes to the lies of the enemies’ lot So run like the wind from the sin of your past Keep your eyes on the prize when they put you on blast It’s the Christ on the cross it’s humanity’s shot It’s a worldwide call to everything that we’re not This is the slam, this is the one This is the slam, this is the one This is the slam, this is the one We gonna do it like it ain’t been done before This is the slam this is the one We gonna spring you like you ain’t been sprung They came from the cities and towns all around To see the longhaired preacher from the desert get down Waist high in water, never short on words he said Repent the kingdom of heaven can be yours But he stopped in the middle of his words and dropped Down to his knees and said behold the Lamb of God He’s the one, the slam don’t you people understand? You’re staring at the son God’s reaching out his hand This is the slam, this is the one This is the slam, this is the one This is the slam, this is the one We gonna do it like it ain’t been done before This is the slam this is the one We gonna spring you like you ain’t been brung This is the slam, this is the one We gonna do it like it ain’t been done before This is the slam this is the one We gonna spring you like you ain’t been sprung The father slammed it like Shaq For Latinos and Blacks Packin’ them straps And Caucasians hooked on Ecstasy and the crack Stacked the sins of this world to his body And conquered evil and hell Then snatched the keys of death in one breath and unlocked the cell He rose on the third I’m tellin’ you partner, its actual fact Just like TOBYMAC and Boney Soprano up on this track We slam dunkin’ and keep it jumpin’ like jumper cables And keep the crowd rowdy like Jesus tossin’ them temple tables This is the slam, this is the one This is the slam, this is the one - |

One Phenomenon, one phenomenon
And it just can't be stopped ya'll We rock forever, we stop whenever We rock forever, we stop whenever We die whenever, we live forever It's a phenomenon that can't be stopped Forever, we stop whenever We rock forever, we stop whenever We die whenever, we live together It's a phenomenon that can't be stopped now Everybody out of the way It's monumental at the end of the day So come what may But it's a wonder that will never fade A marvel that will tickle the mind It's unaccountable in actual time But when we're free They will see what we were destined to be Well I'm alive and I'm enjoyin' the ride But livin' for the moment I die Cause when I'm done, we will run eternally as one My soul is up, up and away My body dead right where it lays I'm movin' on going gone into the new beyond This is the drama you've been waiting for A new dimension that is yours to explore Such mystery is looming at your door This is the moment I've been praying for |

I know you keep a journal
and every page is rippled From the tears that you cry, ain't no meanin' to your scribble Cause words can't describe what you've been feelin' inside It's like thousand foot walls, and they're still on the rise But look up to a beautiful sound And see for yourself you're not that far down And know this, I cannot love a little My promise to you is unconditional And I'll keep the light on, baby Just keep the course, you can weather the storm I'll keep the light on, baby You've come this far, don't you ever lose heart, now Just turn around and I'll be there I'm moving into your atmosphere Just turn around and I'll be there I'm moving into your atmosphere I know you're all alone in a crowd of your friends I can see it in your eyes that your fadin' again Checking out, moving into your hole Where the light can't touch any part of your soul But hold up and let the river rush in You can turn around and start livin' again Cause your life is a beautiful bloom In the image of the one that created you And I'll keep the light on, baby Just keep the course, you can weather the storm I'll keep the light on, baby You've come this far, don't you ever lose heart, now Just turn around and I'll be there I'm moving into your atmosphere Just turn around and I'll be there I'm moving into your atmosphere I'll be there - Said I'll be there, said I'll be there Said I'll be there always, forever Said I'll be there, said I'll be there Said I'll be there always, forever - Just turn around and I'll be there I'm moving into your atmosphere Just turn around and I'll be there I'm moving into your atmosphere I'll be there - Said I'll be there, said I'll be there Said I'll be there always, forever Said I'll be there, said I'll be there Said I'll be there always, forever - |

She blew everything to pieces He’s there hanging on to Jesus She broke everything about him down He said he never saw it coming Until the day she dropped the bomb And she broke everything about him down Sometimes there’s nothing left but to believe And suddenly all of it’s behind you And I’m here to remind you That yesterday is gone so say goodbye And suddenly the skies open above you And someone really loves you Now everything’s alive … everything’s alive She’s there broken into pieces But he swares he doesn’t really see it When she says that all of it was so unfair But hope road is just around the corner It’s one place there’s never been a foreigner ‘Cause God’s love makes everybody welcome there Sometimes there’s nothing left but to believe And suddenly all of it’s behind you And I’m here to remind you That yesterday is gone so say goodbye And suddenly the skies open above you You know Jesus really loves you Now everything’s alive … everything’s alive Sometimes it’s in an instant Sometimes we wait for years But it comes down to the moment when faith eclipses fear Your wandering is over The other side is real You’ve broken through Your mountain moved And mercy is revealed His mercy is revealed, yeah Yesterday is long gone … And suddenly all of it’s behind you And I’m here to remind you That yesterday is gone so wave goodbye And finally the skies open around you And love has truly found you Now everything's alive Everything’s alive Everythin's alive Everything's alive You know, you know, everything's alive Hope road is just around the corner Hope road is just around the corner, just around the corner Sometimes there’s nothing left but to believe |

Somebody said you better let go
'Cause they said so But I could never let this thing go Don't they even know what that meansThey call me obscene Say I wear my faith on my sleeve But I ain't here to seek no glory End of story, I know the judge and the jury People always wanna ask who, what, when, where and why But never wanna step to the light So I hear you wanna come and get some Should I mention I got your attention Know that I'm a man on a mission My position is MOMENTUM Been on a roll for 2000 years or so We got momentum baby Been on a roll for 2000 years or so We got, we got momentumLivin' on the end of obnoxious They call me raucous I'm a freak, I can't stop this Ardently enthused about God No hand-me-down nod You gonna get all I got High-steppin from the twenty on in Knees to my chin I'm rollin' deep in momentum Burnin' with the hardcore flame No shame in this game I'm followin' my heart not my brainWell we been on a roll Cause we got souls that won't die And this party ain't over til we take the flight You've been told that we come bold on this side You ain't never known the dilly til we testify Cause have you ever heard of turnin water into wine And have you ever heard of givin sight back to the blind It's undeniable, I'm droppin the Truth on this track Cause once you start an avalanche there ain't no turnin back |

Every time I turn my back I get the feeling that
I'm 'bout to take a shot to the skully with a bat I'm out of control, need you to fill my soul up And could you shed a little light on the skeletons holed up My past is taking me to task And I can't guarantee how much longer I'll last Without You I'm a hopeless wreck So I cry out Your name as I drop to the deckDon't get me started, don't even get me started Don't get me started, don't even get me started Don't get me started, don't even get me started Don't get me started, don't even get me startedI'm Yours Take me as I am I'm Yours So take this space between us and fill it up again I'm Yours Take me as I am I'm Yours So won't you take this space between us and fill it up again Simple minded little punk Thought I was the junk Nobody ever told me that my doo-doo stunk What was I out of my mind Or was I just trippin' on an ego But You filled up the space and You never let me go Bullseye to the center of my soul One shot but it rocked like a fatal blow This love was Your gun, mercy Your shells Now I'm a dead man walkin' down a skinny trailI'm gonna shout it from the rooftops Give it all I got Shout it from the rooftops So you can take your best shot I'm gonna shout it from the rooftops Give it all I got Shout it from the rooftops Like it or notI'm a dead man walkin' I'm a dead man walkin' down the boulevard |

Suggestions, questions
People want to know Is there life after talk Cause there's talk on the road Twistin' words that I've never even said To the ones that I trust on my ??? Or my "Boo" in our bed Will he make it, man I bet he won't As they're runnin' through the minutes On their cell phones So the pictures painted You got the point And that junk's creepin' into my solo jointSometimes I feel God in the middle of the night In the cool of the shade in the bright sunlightI always feel like somebody's watching me Watch baby, watch baby, He got my back See I'm down with the King So I got it like thatIt's no joke, I've been roped in Chokin' on a bone From a fish in the school of your twilight zone You s me, took me to me to another place Where the air I'm breathin's like mace in my face If this controversy is your way You need to know I'll never doubt my destiny 'Cause I'm stickin' to my guns lika a Son of the Light Feelin' Dad, I'm feelin' Daddy in the air tonightSometimes I feel Grace in the middle of the night In the cool of the shade in the bright sunlight Sometimes I feel God in the midst of a show As the palm trees sway in an afterglowI always feel like somebody's watching me Watch baby, watch baby He got my back See I'm down with the king so I got it like that I always feel like somebody's watching me Watch baby, watch baby He got my back See I'm down with the king so I got it like that |

Doo, doo, doo-doo doo, doo-doo doo, doo-doo doo
There in the airI had a dream last night about the other side And I must confess that it was quite the ride I had a dream last night and the fact that you weren't there Gave me quite the scare (Uh-huh) You see people were afloat all around me Yet their weightless state never seemed to astound me Everything was grand till I noticed one thing That you my friend weren't on the sceneDoo, doo, doo-doo doo, doo-doo doo, doo-doo doo There in the airI've been working all morning trying to spin my dream Cuz I just can't believe you weren't in my dream Remember you and I said we would paint the sky And the leaves on the trees and the stars at night We made beats and we even wrote rhymes And played golf I think a million times Now we never got around to spiritual matters But we sure made time for our mindless chatterDoo, doo, doo-doo doo, doo-doo doo, doo-doo doo Whether here, there or in the airI wanna see you there in the air (See you there, see you there) One day we'll we be singin' (Singin) (Alleluia) I wanna see you there in the air (See you there, see you there) One day we'll we be singin' (Singin) (Alleluia) Phone dialing(other guy) Hello? (toby) Wassup? Wassup? How you doin'? Just fine! I was sort of wondering, could we make the time? Just to kick it? Why not? At our usual spot Lattes in May Mine cold yours hot So where we goin? What's deeper than our usual chat Like whose beats is weak and whose (both) beats is phat (toby) Nah my man it's a next level jump Like when we discussed if Tiger Woods could dunk? Just meet me there, seven o'clock-a |
