and since the name sticks at first
I used to rhyme only to pass the time
Now it's all about the Lord
and you learn kinda quick
and you'll be in it way thick
People say kick it and sometimes I admit
I might slip and fall up out of God's mitt
But that's no error on His part
cause He don't make mistakes
And He don't give me something
that He knows I really can't take
I'd still be standing straight
despite everything life bring
And I know if I step out of line,
But I'll be a king in heaven
And if you think about it,
this life is only a few minutes long
You gotta make your moves,
You never gave your heart
You never gave your heart
Nikes might be stepping in
But in no way will Christ
He pays attention and never mention
Unless you don't pay back,
in which case he might take back
You scream on how you won your battle,
Cause nowadays these players
be getting played up in this game
It ain't the same as when we first started
And burst upon this scene
to speak to broken hearted individuals
Now everybody's out for residuals
Only worry is how they gon'
You can't say you didn't know you had,
when you lift your eyes to the skies
On that day you gon' say please,
When time is up, you gon' wonder why
You never gave your heart
You never gave your heart
with no punches to be pulled
You caught up in other religion,
not really knowing you fool
You actin' like it's all good
when you strollin' round town
not even realizin' you're bound
To everything that's gonna lead
You gon' be itchin' to get up out that,
and I doubt that it will happen
See I'm rappin' cause it happens to
be the language that many hear
that do times so many fear
when the trumpets blow through
I'm proud to speak it loud upon the mic
Ruff on and spark it blowin'
with overtones of heaven's tone
An d who is sittin' at the right hand,
enablin' me to rip his mic and stand
But he's the only reason why I can't,
and why I'm able to be ready
And be Jetty at that time,
with this kinda influential rhyme
You never gave your heart
You never gave your heart
It's in the hitch and ride
