The World Needs Jesus - Intellectual

[Hook 1]

The world needs Jesus

Look at all the fear and all the pain

Look at all the tears that fall like rain

The world needs Jesus

Look at the death and destruction

Look at the theft and corruption

[Verse 1: Mac the Doulos]

Cats come from areas full of the disenfranchised and have-nots/

Always wishing they had what the haves got

But they don't and they think that sucks

So they resolve to get involved in the game to get fast bucks

Young bucks on the block bust Glocks

And duck cops and tuck rocks in they socks

This is just how they've been taught

They think if you moving weight then you doing great if you haven't been caught

In the streets violence and death bring a silence that's deafening

'Cause the hood got codes and it blows my mind

If you snitch on a crime, they'll put you in the ditch on a dime

Why? How did it get so bad

It's harder to get a good education than get to get dope bags-it's so sad

But God sent His son to save us

That's the basics, you need to know that

[Hook 2]

The world needs Jesus

Look at the crime and abuse

Look at the minds of the youth

The world needs Jesus

Look at the hate and the apathy

Look how we create our own tragedies

[Verse 2: Mac the Doulos]

I'm so perplexed and my soul is vexed

'Cause human bodies are being sold for sex

In 06 a prominent pastor was found to have a prostitute's number in his rolodex

So yo what's next

Humanity is homicidal, suicidal, the truth is rivaled

By lies and idols-we threw the Bible out with the trash

And a money hungry mentality has made many devout for the cash

According to Forbes, it's bout 800 billionaires out there

Makes ya wonder how people still die from hunger

And these are just the things I've seen

I ain't even touched on the stuff I've heard about by word of mouth

This thing we call life, can cause cats to weep all night

But front like everything's all right

The fast paced rat race did it to them

And they end up ruined 'cause they never think to call Christ

[Hook 3]

The world needs Jesus

Look at the thugs and the greed

Look at the drugs and disease

The world needs Jesus

Satan's cronies are getting

People to buy into phony religions

[Verse 2: Mac the Doulos]

I've come to the conclusion

That most have lost hope and can't cope, they're overcome by confusion

Look, we choke and croak from smoke and pollution

The deceived believe in a hoax or illusion provoked by delusions

Young girls face the pressure of measuring up

To the artist or actress they've seen in the magazines, the devil is setting them up

There's lies in the media and people just eat it up

But then they tune me out as soon as I bring Jesus up

A killa can off ya

'Cause for the right price his lawyer can change murder to manslaughter

You got terrorist terrorizing the populous

In 01 them NY twin towers got dropped on us

Racism is insane yo

Considering God made a world full of colors like the rainbow

We fight each other over trivial idiosyncrasies

You'd think we see that we all got the same foe

Elections cause lots of tension, not to mention

Crooked law enforcement and politicians, this world is full of rotten systems

Don't tell me that people ain't hurting

The world is offering solutions but they ain't working

I know you think I'm pessimistic

Really I'm realistic the truth sobered me up and I want the rest to get it

'Cause the rest have missed it-.despite the evidences

That the metaphysics of this world is messed up let's admit it

And only Christ can fix it
