Having Said That

[Intro]
Uh huh
I'm excited
Man, I love having Social Club here
My goodness
Some of the greatest rappers alive

[Verse 1: Fern]
Yoh
Not bad for a prodigal
Been a long throw new season
The kind's that got to come
Livin' proof that God's still doin' miracles
Streets plus church that's what I call spirit-roll
Mix-tapes
Albums
Milestones
I'm home
My child grown
My mind's blown
And I'm still tryin' ta figure it
So with these air-flights due to the rap deliveries
It's no mystery
Transcends history
Social Club Fernie Fern
And it's God next to me
Hey that's a lover's boat
We gon' love faithfully (oh yeah)
And in his love is the place to be

[Hook]
Gotta let 'em know this message I've been preaching
Please remember me
(I'm a child of God)
They try to tear my soul from my body and my Maker
But they couldn't breach
Oh no
See I've been holding on to this faith of mine
I've been holding on to this faith of mine
And I've been scared
But I'm holding on
Holding on
Holding on
Holding on

[Verse 2: Marty]
I'll be the martyr of my people
No man defines my worth
He's at his best when I'm at my worst
I told God I would never go back to church
Look at me now
Something happens when you look death in the face
Laugh at it and say
They see you on this way
I must be doing okay
Coz if I wasn't important
Why did you waste time on me
I think I'm battered all day
Nobody I know relates
They think all Christians are fake
Well today's a new day
(Yeah)
Catch us in pictures with the prayin' hands
Hallelujah
We get it
No middle-man
This is for anyone who never had the chance
And after Fernie's album we got new demands
Yeah, got old friends asking me for money
Coz they saw my Instagram and kinda wanted something from me
We show our best sides and hide any that is ugly
To busy on our phones to realize that God is comin'
Wake up

[Hook]
Gotta let 'em know this message I've been preaching
Please remember me
(I'm a child of God)
They try to tear my soul from my body and my Maker
But they couldn't breach
No no
See I've been holding on to this faith of mine
I've been holding on to this faith of mine
And I've been scared
But I'm holding on
Holding on
Holding on
Holding on

[Verse 3: Fern]
Yeah
I left the streets alone
They need me no more
I used to peddle raw now I just bless the Lord
I told my daughter that he loves you unconditionally
And when they ask you who's the best
I hope you mention "we"
In the name of Jesus Christ who hang from a tree
Or we could disagree too
Doesn't stop the fact that Jesus' raised and comin' back soon
It sure don't
It sure don't stop the fact that it's true
I told StreetRunner that it's the End of Days
This whole project was crafted for the fog in the cold December haze
There's something about the dark when you're light
Never scared to make moves when you're right
And Martin and myself we them go-to guys
Having said that
Please tell them others to get that
I was so anti having them set-backs
Excellence over pestilence
Drop and get that

(Sermon Excerpt)
I wonder (uh-huh)
Is there anybody being told to shut up in this place?
Is there anyone being told to go home in this place?
Is there anyone told to sit down in this place?
If you know that those words being spoken up over you don't match up with the word that God has given you
Then open up your mouths
Lift up your hands
And take the next few seconds
And praise him like you've never praised before
Shout like you've never shouted before
If you need to run up here, run up here
If you need to jump, you jump
Because you belong to the King of kings and the Lord of lords
Let all of God's children say
