A Letter to My Friends

[Verse 1]
This is to all the scribes, it's the least I could do
I apologize for leaving the crew
But the decision's been made, cause this kid has been saved
I was sick and afraid, for wisdom I prayed (Job 28:28)
But I been healed by Christ, He revealed His Light
So now I must rep for Him, cause I feel it's right (Matthew 10:32-33)
I hope y'all don't think I turned my back on you
Understand, it's the hardest thing I ever had to do
I laid in agony, prayed there had to be
Another way than to actually say, I have to leave
It's been four years and sixty some shows
Spitting fun flows and ripping dumb foes
I spit-up in front rows, we was known for wilding out
In cyphers or microphones, we was proud to shout
Of course we were suped, I knew we'd set trends
Cause we were more than a group, a crew of best friends

[Chorus 1]
And that's the toughest part of leaving y'all
But now I must say peace because Jesus called (Luke 14:26-27)
I know you think it's real weird that I changed
And it wasn't easy to leave, that's why there's tears on this page
A letter to my friends, I'm sorry for leavin' y'all
But now I must say peace because Jesus called (Luke 9:23-24)
I know you think it's real weird that I changed
And it wasn't easy to leave, that's why there's tears on this page

[Verse 2]
To all the bingers I hope I didn't ruin our friendship
We used to get woozy and chew on a 10-strip
In a choking coma from the smoke aroma
Y'all used to blow a dust bowl like Oklahoma
Although I enjoyed the many wasted nights
They can't compare to the grace of Christ (Psalm 63:3)
Now I praise Him cause He paid my price
I was living in darkness now everyday is bright (John 8:12)
It was fun to flow and master verses
Now I'm saved, 6 months ago I was tagging churches
Right when I'm leaving the Parts of Speech
You're almost at the point we worked so hard to reach
I guess you're just gonna have to rock without me
Mic Language and Cience, you always got me rowdy
Dos Noun, I wrote my first rhyme with you bro
You showed me how to spit punchlines at a show
Verbal Tec, you taught me how to spit viciously
I thank you for teaching me your sick delivery
But more importantly, you all were there for me
Always, I love you for that, cause it's a rarity

[Chorus 2]
This is a letter to my friends, I'm sorry for leaving y'all
But I must say peace, because Jesus called (Matthew 10:37-39)
There's nothing that I loved more than the crew
So if I left, this must have been important and true
A letter to my friends, I'm sorry for leaving y'all
But I must say peace because Jesus called
There's nothing that I loved more than the crew
So if I left, this must have been important and true

[Verse 3]
They say, Ambush left the crew to seek religion
He ceased from spitting, I guess he's a Christian
Nah, I bounced cause now I'm seen forgiven
And my deep conviction's to see others redeemed and risen
And I wouldn't be surprised if sometimes you wonder
How this guy turned into a Bible-thumper
But I pray my salvation's a great example
Of how God can save a crazy raging vandal (Jeremiah 32:17)
And I'm sorry y'all that we hardly even talk
But I been called as a part of Jesus' flock (John 10:4)
It's not that I decided to change personally
It's Christ abiding inside who stays working in me (Philippians 2:13)
Ambush the Animated was crucified with Him (Galatians 2:20)
That man was amputated, in Christ he died to sin (Romans 6:6)
And I bet that no one would've ever guessed this
I didn't change for the better, I've been resurrected (John 11:43-44)
I know no one likes to be told you're flawed
But someday we'll stand before a holy God (Matthew 25:31-46)
And yo I got too much love for you cats
Just to sit back and withhold these wonderful facts
That when Christ's slamming His rod (Psalm 2:9)
Wicked sinners like us can have a right standing with God (Romans 4:4-5)
Which comes through repentance and faith (Romans 3:22)
That Jesus Christ died on your behalf and that your sentence is paid (Romans 3:25)
Yo He can save ya (Isaiah 59:1-3)
Your existence is incomplete until you know your Creator (John 17:3)
This world is vanity (Ecclesiastes 1:14) it's passing away (1 John 1:17)
You could be rapping today and tomorrow be smashed into clay (James 4:14)
Instead of seeking pleasure in drugs and mics
Peep the treasure of the love of Christ (Ephesians 3:17-19)
Please surrender, He'll fill your every desire (John 4:13)
Have peace forever, come chill in heavenly attire

[Outro]
That's the truth, y'all
From my heart
This is to all the Deadly Scribes
Figurative Language and Parts of Speech
To the whole Binge Crew
I have a unceasing grief in my heart for all of you cats
And I just want y'all to experience the love of Jesus Christ
And the joy of having your sins forgiven
Aight
Peace y'all
Love you

[Turntablism]
Signed, sincerely
