Those who consider themselves religious and yet do not keep a tight rein on their tongues Deceive themselves, and their religion is worthless Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this To look after orphans and widows in their distress And to keep oneself from being polluted by the world We are the resistance I'm with that tribe of Christians Trynna tell anyone who's listening That's ignorance, it's not our religion We are the resistance I'm with that tribe of Christians Who stand up frequently And tell everybody, "45, he don't speak for me" (Push back) errybody from right to left... (AYYY) errybody from right to left... (Push back) errybody from right to left, there's a way seems right but it leads to death (Push back) errybody from left to right... (AYYY) errybody from left to right (Push back) errybody from left to right... what's done in the dark will be brought to light We are, in a crazy time, thought it would be an amazing time, but the landscape's Desolate, folks gettin' desperate, even the Verizon guy done left for Sprint And the truth can't get through to the electorate, we're still gettin' duped By the pundits that they choose, don't like the view, then call it fake news But they can't speak for you or speak for me, when they twist up the truth so frequently On frequencies and airwaves and websites, they act like white supremacy is their Birthright, as they fight for church rights, but the Lord is coming to set the church right Set the earth right, let's discuss this sweet shalom that we call justice Cause the funny thing about it is, we the ones who should be knowin' the truth We should be liable for not reading the Bible, 'cause social justice, man it ain't new They was gettin' it in back then, with Peter and the blanket of food in Acts 10 Paul the apostle lost his patience, in the epistle he penned to the Galatians They were treating Gentiles like a second class to the Jew, and he was like "Maaan, you foolish Galatians, what done bewitched you?" that ain't the Gospel I brought, and it's really not what you should believe in All I really taught was Christ crucified I'mma tell you like I told the Ephesians, here's the reason Ever since Isaac and Ishmael, we've based our faith on a racial basis When we do that, we do damage to the gospel in a million places, and people be like "Why you gotta be confrontational when you talk about race?" and I be like "Did you read the part when Paul wrote he opposed Peter to his face?" Yeah that's what I thought We are the resistance I'm with that tribe of Christians Trynna tell anyone who's listening That's ignorance, it's not our religion We are the resistance I'm with that tribe of Christians Who stand up frequently And tell everybody, "45, he don't speak for me" (Push back) errybody from right to left... (AYYY) errybody from right to left... (Push back) errybody from right to left, there's a way seems right but it leads to death (Push back) errybody from left to right... (AYYY) errybody from left to right (Push back) errybody from left to right... what's done in the dark will be brought to light If you don't like being called racist, it's not enough to not be, you gotta be anti They can try to attack or kill you cause you're unfamiliar, but the truth, well it can't die It can only get stronger, cause the truth resists all attempts at suppression, and Since the truth is a person, it's urgent TO practice confession, when I Said that it's not just a right wing problem, I don't think they heard me But the MAX train killer didn't only reflect Trump, He also repped Bernie That's a fact that should be bothering you because the hard left can be intolerant too And if we holler when it' s fake, we should holler when true, and not exaggerate Just to make a dollar or two, shoot It's not simple, it's complex, Galatians 3, read it in context and you'll Get the gist of it, we exist to fit grace inside the law, right smack in the Midst of it, but when a crisis is imminent, doesn't mean both sides are equivalent When they deflect, deny, deceive, we must then follow the truth wherever it leads C'mon, it's not hard to use the good sense that the good Lord gave ya I refuse to excuse the continual enabling of bad behavior, it don't make Sense, how you gonna say you're a Christian but you're still on the fence All kinds of shady deeds lead to a mountain of evidence, but you're still not convinced It's willful ignorance, if you approve of the government's help when it comes around As long as all the recipients are rich and white instead of being poor black or brown You guys are clowns, if you think that Christians don't care, man, we bout to call your bluff The midterm's just around the corner, 2018 can't come fast enough, let's go (Push back) errybody from right to left... (AYYY) errybody from right to left... (Push back) errybody from right to left, there's a way seems right but it leads to death (Push back) errybody from left to right... (AYYY) errybody from left to right (Push back) errybody from left to right... what's done in the dark will be brought to light So what do I resist? Well for one, I resist being partisan And try not to quickly judge another culture's lens or the art it's in It's not about conservative or liberal ideology, or either political idolatry But how to love my neighbor when I'm standin' in line at the Dollar Tree And speakin' of which, what we need is more, protecting children and feedin' the poor But let's not behave like photo ops are all that we need 'em for They're the ones we should be pleading for, the ones whom Jesus was broken and bleeding for They need a door to open like Jehovah opened up the Red Sea before And that's a miracle, more than we can pay for, but it ain't more than we can pray for Let the legacy of Peter continue, I have no gold, but what I have I give you Let em know they can stand, if they can't tell, and let em rise up, Lin Manuel They need a policy voice in this forum, so that you can do it with and not for em I'm all for respect and decorum, but we can't seek the floor and not seek to roar Against unjust evil plans advanced by corporate conquistadors If you really believe that He's risen, stop the pipeline from schools to prison Incarceratin' the nation without restoration or rehabilitation is Godless nonsense, we need the church to regain its conscience, it ain't Rocket science, or telekinesis, don't act religious, just act like Jesus If they ask, "are you one of those Christians?" Play this song and give em another definition When there's people in need of assistance, we take the path of most resistance We are the resistance I'm with that tribe of Christians Trynna tell anybody that's listening Ignorance is not our religion We are the resistance I'm with that tribe of Christians Who stand up frequently And tell everybody, "45 don't speak for me" (Push back) errybody from right to left... (AYYY) errybody from right to left... (Push back) errybody from right to left, there's a way seems right but it leads to death (Push back) errybody from left to right... (AYYY) errybody from left to right (Push back) and tell everybody, "45 don't speak for me"
