[VERSE 1]

Let me let me tell you bout my homeboy CORey

This the first verse of the very first story

Call it the first letter, you can call it whateva

Long as you hear the truth and leave surer than eva

CORey's a new believer actin like he's in a gang

Runnin round sayin his church is the greatest thang

Won't check a sermon unless it's his bishop's name

It seems he forgot to keep Jesus the main thang

Cause bishop ain't raise up after three days up

He ain't take your case up offerin you his grace huh

But CORey stay divided all of the time

Not Christ but a man that he's standin behind


[Hook]

I got this little letter, I'm tryna break it down

So you can hear the truth in the sound

Division, a whole lot of sin

I can't forget the problems of people livin within


[Verse 2]

I got this little letter, I'm tryna break it down

But let me tell you CORey backround

He started off crazy, party's full of shawtys

Religious ceremonies where people was gettin naughty

But all that changed, the truth of God reigned

The Gospel spread within him like viruses in his veins

But mayne even though his heart's rearranged

He found himself caught up in some of his old ways

He layin up with women and sinnin was gettin strange

He thought the more he sinned the more Jesus was pleased to save

He thought cause he accepted his brother touchin his mother

That he was spiritual cause he let em get with each other

And CORey had beef with another in the faith

Instead of workin through it they opened a court case

A slap to the face in the God who gives grace

Now CORey's outta place tryna carry his own weight


[Verse 3]

Now CORey got married, but everywhere he turned

He sees lust burn and women waitin to serve him

And CORey's learnin, Satan wishes to turn him

Away from his wife, to satisfy all his yearnings

Divorce ain't legitimate if both are regenerate

What God put together let nobody put a split in it

See that ain't the end of it, he sought his own benefit

He would do the things that his friends saw as forbiddin it

Though it was no sin in it his homies they was ignorant

They were made weak cause his liberty was the hindrance

Unlike an apostle no concern for the gospel

No denying his rights nah homie wasn't that thoughtful
