Songtexte In The Sky - Bril Abanti

When I first heard Christian rap it gave me an epiphany
The God that I hated got acquainted through a symphony
Offering to the savior was elated rest is history
Every night I'm praying talk to God cuz He picking me
When I young I wrote Him notes about my life and how I know that He's the one but I'm bout to lose hope
I quickly got angry cuz Child Of God was something I thought was revoked and went to activism to be that holy rope
Fast forward now I'm thinking we the ones to stop this
Christian rappers coming out and speaking on them topics
But silence I'm lost in
All these songs bout who God is
But nobody is talking bout the bombings
Quick to talk bout gender but genocide is a problem
Maybe I should keep these thoughts in but I can't stop them
Guess that don't get the clicks or the invitations but ion care really bruh cuz I'm praying for my brothers in the sky

Fly high
Straight to the moon and see Christ
And I'm praying for my brothers in the sky
Fly high
Beyond the moon to see Christ

Maybe He love you so
Maybe He love you not
Maybe do as I'm told
Baby I love you lots
Baby I love the lot
Baby I love the lot
If everyone gone be David
Guess I'm gone be Lot

Maybe He love you so
Maybe He love you not
Maybe do as I'm told
Baby I love you lots
Baby I love the lot
Baby I love the lot
If everyone gone be David
Guess I'm gone be Lot

I pray this voice reach
Not to give hope or to preach
Or to make the situation sound peach
I hope they know we see and praying for they fam that's dying in the streets
Every night I'll take these issues to the king
Pray for genocide and also pray for peace
Praying for the Christians to stand on Christ and go and speak
I understand that we don't know in totality but know Christ wouldn't be sitting chilling quiet as can be
See children looking at screens wondering all the things they just seen and being told by a stranger look at me
I promise you we peep but some people just don't believe so we gotta show em innocence stripped from pre-teens
I'm praying that you see Christ in everything even this whole regime and eternal life prepared for you and me

I hope you see
You may not see

But I'm praying for my brothers in the sky
Fly high beyond the moon to see Christ
Oh I'm praying for my brothers in the sky
Fly high beyond the moon to see Christ

I see many folks dead
I see many folks dead
Lotta folks spilling out info but man how'd we get here
Folks really killing bout land
Folks talking bout we here
Screaming out we the first Israelites
We really taking it there there

Well you looking just like your people all of those years ago
Unruly nations hell bent on power and killing folks
Using God's name in vain to spread Satan's satirical imperical rule

Yall let history repeat itself oh thinking I'm lying
I thought I was tripping too but I peeped how folks was trying
Back when moses was spliting rivers and met with Jireh
The Israelites fiend for a king and had some crazy tyrants

Power ruled the earth as the Lord's people
But when I look at Jonah I see they weren't for people

You know the story bout a man who was swallowed by a fish well the pill is hard to swallow if you go listen to this

Jonah really talked about God
Jonah really talked about God
Usually the folks worked inside the gate
But God gave him another job
Jonah was scared of God
Jonah ran away oh Lord
Almost killed some fisherman but they tossed him over and what

Jonah went to Nineveh
Jonah went to Nineveh

Preach to the folks in one day
Nation was so violent really wondered what He'd say
Maybe that God breaks chains
40 days and Nineveh was done that's all he'd say
He ain't even show repentance God
He ain't even show em how to pray
Still they went cried out to God they ain't even know His name
They ain't even know His name
They ain't even know His name

Still they went and wept to God and switched up they whole game
They heard a word and changed then the Lord saw and forgave
Jonah was mad oh man
He wanted their destruction and wanted God to go rage don't this just sound like today
These are sisters and brothers
These families and lovers
These are daddies and mothers
These are uncles and cousins
Watch who you ostracizing and treating people as other
Barking bout ancestors but we know Christ is just coming
Maybe you linked to one of them tribes back in the day
But that does not mean you go and just make they same mistakes
Obsessed with kings idolatry mocking God in His face
And if you really a child a God go head pray for them brothers in the sky

Fly high beyond the moon to see Christ
And I'm praying for my brothers in the sky
Fly high beyond the moon to see Christ
