Текст песни The Initiation - Lyrical HI

When he came back from college
They discovered that everything had changed
They noticed it from a mile away
That his character and attitude had been sharpened
Like a brick that spring from dust mud clay
They thought he was trying to isolate himself
But neither did they know that he had received something
That made him distinguished from the rest
She came close
Looked into his eyes and couldn't recognize her son
Because he doesn't even look like himself
She was curious
She became eager to know the reason behind his silence
She persuaded him to speak
His face was buried beneath the ground
His lips were shaking like a man whose life was at the verge of death
But he finally spoke anyway
He said "pardon my manners, ma"
"I did not crave your indulgence before I embarked on this journey"
"I have finally been initiated"
She could not contain the word she heard
She shouted and screamed out loud
Her voice echoed through the roof
And the building vibrated when she said "JESUS"
Then he said "Do not mention the name of my capone in vain"
"Your capone, your capone"
"Is this what you went to tertiary institution to become"
But he further explained
"You know when you're newly admitted into college"
"You can easily be intimidated"
"So I decided to get fortified"
"That evening, when I was in the hostel where I reside"
"Some men approached me with a constitution from their kingdom"
"The word they spoke persuaded me"
"So I decided to honour their invitation"
"That evening, when I got to the province"
"The man who represented the capone spoke words"
"Words so powerful, words so powerful that it swept me off my feet"
"I fell for LOVE"
"I decided to get initiated when I blend in"
"I took the oath"
"They gave me an orientation before my induction"
"I was buried beneath H2O and I rose, buried beneath H2O and I rose"
"When I rose I started speaking the language of the gods"
"I started speaking coded language that was made for the initiated"
"I spoke in tongues [?]"
She came close to rip off his clothes
To see if he still has scars on his body
Due to their brutal torture he might have received
When he was going through the initiation process
But he said "Hold on, ma"
"My capone took lashes for my lashes, he took nails for my nails"
"He was brutally tortured for my sake"
"So I will not be enslaved when I came"
Then she came close to her son and said
"You mean, you went to the tertiary institution of higher learning"
"To belong to a fraternity"
He said "Yes, the fraternity of divinity"
"Because what this world offers is vain"
"And the end is full of calamity"
"So I chose to belong to eternity"
"Mama, where I belong now"
"We always have our meetings every first Sundays of the month"
"We come together, we drink blood and we eat flesh"
"We drink blood and we eat flesh"
"Because they have guns with them"
"But we have God in us"
Tears started rolling down her cheeks
Then she said "Please, I will love to meet that your capone"
"I want to get initiated too"
I told her "Do not bother, ma, I represent the capone here"
If any among you have been initiating men into the body of Christ
Or blending them into the blood of the lamb
You will know that
No initiation on earth can take place without the tools
No initiation on earth can take place without the tools
When she said she wanted to get initiated
I brought out my tools; Raphsody of realities and the Bible
I brought out my tools
The tools that will not chastise you
The tools that will not leave marks on your body
The tools that will not leave you going home in pain
I brought out my tools
And when I was done with her
She received peace she never had before
So my brethren in the brotherhood
Do not assume that everyone in your neighborhood
Is initiated into the body of Christ
Or blended into the blood of the lamb
Cause this is war
This is war and there is not neutral ground
It is either you're with us or against us
And if you're not with us, you're making issues worst
As for those who will sail through just to fish men
At times when you sail through
The storm might be raging
But don't forget your perfect anchor is always on board
Your point one is always with you
The shop cannot capsize
He will always say peace be still
Peace be still
And make una no forget
Na blood na e we drink no be zobo
Eternity wey we belong no be YOLO
Beautified with coat of many colors no be polo
Na God be our defender no be yobo
Don't forget we bare the mark of Christ
We bare the mark of Christ
We don't disembark
So when we're coming back and someone screams "Who goes there"
We tell them "JESUS"
Who goes there
JESUS
Who goes there
JESUS
We dey fly colour
And the colour wey we dey fly na the blood of Jesus na e dey inside
The anointing upon our lives
The anointing upon our lives no dey pamper egg, e dey break the yoke
God bless you all!
