[Intro: D.I.D.A.C.T.I.C.]
Alright, class
Today’s topic is the radical corruption of humanity
There are many ways we see this in our lives that could be shared
But here are some examples to help you get started on your assignment
[Verse 1: D.I.D.A.C.T.I.C.]
It’s why we’d kill for a bill, why we seek thrills to fulfill
Why we medicate the pain in us and still we are ill
Why we throw millions at celebrities as the poor fight for necessities
It’s why we live like we are each others’ enemies (Ephesians 6:12)
It’s why we got mass shootings, why we got crooked cops
Why we posted that comment, got flak for it, then took it off
It’s why we always want what we can’t have
Why we parade pride, why we got greed and wrath
Gluttony, sloth, and lust, it’s why we need laws
Why we’re fatally flawed like allowing abortion
And not fetal abduction, yeah, it’s why we’re inconsistent
It's why we’d give up an eternity for fifteen minutes
It’s why we love gossip, yet we got bones in our closets
Why there’s poison everywhere, why there’s corruption for profit
It’s why we think we’re basically good, good enough for Heaven
And compare ourselves to worse people like killers and felons
It’s why we all live life in 2 Dimensions (Psalm 90:8) (2D!)
It’s why we have to wonder about true intentions
Why we got secret agendas like the government
Why there’s a problem of evil, pain, and suffering
It’s why we wanna rule the world, why there’s revolution armies
Why Illuminati wants my mind, soul, and my body (Matthew 22:37)
Why a sinister force attacks me inwardly
Why we naturally deny God like vaccine injury
[Chorus 1: D.I.D.A.C.T.I.C.]
The heart is dark, it needs to be restrained
We follow it and that is why we ache
No one is good, no, we are all depraved
It’s why (it’s why), it’s why (it’s why)
Born dead and blind, through Him we can see straight
The Holy One, who didn’t see decay
From the wages of sin, you can be saved!
It’s why (it’s why), it’s why (it’s why)
[Verse 2: D.I.D.A.C.T.I.C.]
It’s why we learn the hard way, why we don’t weigh the stakes
Why we don’t learn from history and repeat the same mistakes
It’s why we built the atomic bomb and had blasts that were massive
It’s why we won’t learn from our pasts to get past it (Proverbs 26:11)
It’s why husbands are passive, so we blame-shift
Why fathers are absent, so God the Father's dismissed (Psalm 68:5)
It’s why I don’t have to teach my baby boy to disobey
Why he will want his own way (Isaiah 53:6a), it’s why criminals slip away
Why we got death and disarray, despair, destruction, and disease
Depression, drug addiction, disorder (James 3:16), disbelief
Why we’re told it’s all about us, why we boast in self
Why we feel empty and think having the most will help (2 Timothy 3:2-4)
It’s why we still want fame as we watch it wreck lives
It’s why we think it's joking when we disrespect wives
It’s why we got a debt that we could never pay up
Why Christians give Christ a bad name like Nevaeh
Why I went by the name of Skel, raising hell, why we can't change ourselves (Acts 2:37, Ephesians 4:24)
And don’t wanna ‘til we’re patients, unwell, or layin' in jail
It’s why “to err is human”
Why instead of forgiving people, we’d rather scare and sue them
Why teachers have affairs with students
It’s why we’re Naughty By Nature, down with O.P.P
And temporary pleasures that we wholly seek
It’s why we get One More Chance like B.I.G. and Faith
It’s why God sent His Son and He died in our place
[Chorus 2: D.I.D.A.C.T.I.C.]
The heart is dark, it needs to be restrained
We follow it and that is why we ache
No one is good, no, we are all depraved
It’s why (it’s why), it’s why (it’s why)
But God pursued us even before we strayed
To renew His image in us we’d taint
Through the One who defeated the grave!
It’s why (it’s why), it’s why (it’s why)
[Verse 3: R-Swift]
I'm introducing the reason
The comma in the sentence where we committed the treason
Yeah, that's why we risk it all to reach Him
Only empowered by the Spirit leading, that's freedom
New page, sign my name on the dotted line
Truth saves, without His grace, I am my demise
Uh, conviction showing me that God is with me
This faith of mine is a waste of time in the eyes of many
I'm just trying to reflect His image in the time He lends me
In boldness, hope a revolution revives the city
Yeah.. that's why
I'm carried by the Word, throw my burdens to the sky
Serving Him with purpose, ’cause He's working, I'm alive
I was a product of the evils lurking, I survived
My attitude is just gratitude unchained
What's understood doesn't need to be explained
Got 'em!
[Chorus 3: D.I.D.A.C.T.I.C.]
The heart is dark, it needs to be remade
Following it is the reason we ache
No one is good, no, we’ve all misbehaved
It’s why (it’s why), it’s why (it’s why)
The heart’s the problem, not just how we raise
We all live with the choices that we make
Would you want your life to be replayed?
It’s why (it’s why), it’s why (it’s why)
