[Verse 1]
Opened up my eyes to the world and now I see
They got a lot of guns and they aimin' at me
Cuz they say I love the church, I don't care about the streets
That's so far from the truth, why they lyin' on me?
And where am I supposed to be? Tryin' to play my role
Stayin' faithful to the Gospel, seen a lot of growth
Been a lot of testimonies all around the globe
And I ain't braggin', that's from rappin' 'bout what God has spoke
It used to be a gift now it's criticized
If my heart is for the church, why is this a crime?
Whatever happened to the days when the mistress bride
Was speakin' life into the body? I'm a bit surprised
Better recognize
[Hook]
Lookin' at the church, got my eyes on the streets
Lookin' at the world with they eyes on me
What they talkin' 'bout, huh? Jesus is for everybody
Huh? Jesus is for everybody
Lookin' at the poor, got my eyes on the rich
Lookin' at the trap boys and the life of a prince
What they talkin' 'bout, huh? Jesus is for everybody
Huh? Jesus is for everybody
[Verse 2]
Opened up my eyes to the church and now I see
Them automatic weapons and they aimin' at me
Say I'm preachin' to the choir, people dyin' in the streets
You'd be preachin' to 'em too if you've seen 'em lately
No doubt is in my mind, it's makin' perfect sense
Am I doin' something wrong talkin' to the saints?
I'm just givin' 'em my all and I'm in my own skin
While I'm buildin' up the body, walkin' in His grace
But while I'm talkin' to the church I hope they overhear
We want the whole world to know we over here
I'm talk-talk-talkin' from the lawyers and the doctors
To the corners with the choppers
To the homies in the barber chair, my whole career
[Hook]
[Verse 3]
Just for a moment can I stand in my own defense?
I had a brief talk with Kanye West
Did it with Nick Cannon, only told my friends
That issue with Tech N9ne? A little more complex
And I can tell you impressed I'm talkin' with the stars
What good is that if I don't speak to security guards?
Something's wrong with my maturity, charity's flawed
Cuz I ain't speakin', man this whole family is lost
I guess the moral of the story is
Jesus Christ came for the notorious, and the saint
Grace for the less glorious, and the famed
Understand where the glory is, it's in His name
[Hook]
[Outro]
JIFE, JIFE
Jesus is for everybody
Blacks, whites, rich, poor
Church folks, the religious
No matter where you are, whatever walk of life
Jesus is for you
