lyrics

Let your kingdom come
will be done
Kingdom come
Have Your way (x2)

Verse 1

It's more than just music its the soundtrack of a movement
So after the music stops we keep it moving
It's more than just hype or the flashing lights
or working a crowd or working a mic
It's more than just YouTube hits
Or awards, or the loud applause that you're getting on tour
It's more than just downloads or getting a reload
This is deeper than rap more than a good flow
more than just bars that frees thoughts and feelings
more than getting pulled up when the DJ wheels it
It's more than just gaining popularity for your artistry
more than infiltrating this industry
It's more than just mainstream vs underground
more than a genre or just another sound
It's my life's soundtrack so don't confuse it
We live this movie it's more than just music

Hook:
You're on my side (x4)
I've got to
testify (x4)

Let your kingdom come
will be done
Kingdom come
Have Your way (x2)

Verse 2

It's easy to make the gospel seen
When you're trapped in the bubble of the gospel scene
But if you really know what the gospel means
You know it's more than just music that we need
Good music is nice when it has flavour
But music aint your saviour it can't save ya
When songs get deleted Jesus still saves
You are my song Lord beyond the grave
Some say it's a method to spread the message
others confuse the genre with the message, the essence
Of what I do is faith related
That is obvious it can't be debated
From a heart of worship these bars were created
So even when I'm just spitting it is sacred
but the less informed, they try my patience
When their dualistic mindset tries to frame it

hook:
You're on my side (x4)
I have to
testify (x4)
