Aliens Lyrics

[Hook]
Aliens
Strangers in places
Foreign in lands that we are in
Call us peculiar but know that
We are

[Verse 1: Lecrae]
A - A whole 'nother kind of flow, kinda slow, but we gotta go, cause the world's so ill
L - Living the life, and living it right, and living for Christ, and that's real in the field
I - Intelligent, but irrelevant, without Christ, it's nothing but another sin element
E - Eternal purpose, without it, this earth is dead and worthless
N - Never stop, giving Him props, giving Him praise, now till the end of our days
S - Seek Him and please Him and let the people know that they need Him
Aliens, new creations, new free agents, ain't signed to sin
What the world do, we don't do, cause we wanna do, what the Lord do, Christ within
Our system, listen, our mission's the Great Commission
We come here to represent Him, that's why we call ourselves Christians

Let me spit another line, for the Frontline, and the Plumbline, one time, on the front lines
Keep holding it down, for all the pilgrims, all over the world, representing for the bloodline

[Verse 2: Tedashii]
I feel like running in the middle of the campus with the Gammas dropping hammers waving banners saying Jesus saves
Bringing together the bretheren in a circle in a cypher on the corner yelling pass the phrase
Taking heirs of the kingdom to the field of missions so they can spill vision to the children missing
Telling the men in prison about the Peace-Be-Stiller, Mr. Rise & Walk and Mr. Heal Your Vision
Mr. Jesus of Nazareth

Bloodied and beaten and we was the reason for the massacare
For the sin I commit, and even when I slip, His love is there to grab us up, so as for us
We hood just like Cadillacs, and like James in the Cackalacky, do things that will make Him happy, He asks and we do them gladly
He changed us from acting crappy, we came here as Satan's lacky's, but through Christ I call Him Daddy, now I'm just a pilgrim passing
I learned that I don't belong, got new game, new life, new song
Don't fit in, theres nothing wrong, anti-culture's what I'm on

Royal Priesthood, a chosen one, rep Him well until He comes
Proposing to people about the propitiation, pre-paid, when Christ died, and decided it was done
Preaching to the pushed aside prostitute, destitute, working the block, just to feed her son
So if you see us looking different dog, don't be tripping, just know that we are, a-li-ens
[Verse 3: Lecrae]
I wish I, had a dollar, every time I heard em holla, that I look like, seem like, talk like them
I blend in, till I stand out, shout Jesus, man I really wanna be like Him
And it's funny, they love me until I speak the truth, and then they say I'm trying salt their game
I gotta do it, I'm the salt of the earth I eat, breathe, sleep, think, walk and talk that mayne
We, are not from this planet, we, are not from this earth
C.O.G.'s, something distinct about the way that we work
I never wanna be discredited for editing the elements evident of a heaven-sent resident
I just wanna represent Jesus, He's the Way the holy King, Priest and the President
I'ma put it in motion, the world love sin they boasting, they put it on like some lotion
If you ain't focused, you fall for the hocus pocus, fall tryna gain ya focus
And I ain't joking, we ain't here to play no games, we foreigners in a new terrain
Here on mission to represent Him and full of biblical ammunition, we aliens
