[Intro]

Yeah

Record four

Let's go

Yeah, it's record number fo'!

'Errybody knows

Yeah!

I'ma let it, I'ma let it, I'ma let it go

I'ma let it go

Yeah

Listen!

Oh, no! Yeah


[Verse 1]

I ain't the type to take a gat and put a hole in your head (nah!)

I'm the type that take the mic and clean your soul up instead (yeah!)

What I say and what I write is motivation, forget it

You want a Shady number two, man that's not what this is (not what!)

It's like we all take sin and adapt it

Used to seem ugly, now it's lookin' attractive (real pity)

Used to let it bug me, now we like it when it happens (crazy)

It's like when it happens (nah!), your life is inactive (yeah!)

World's satisfaction will play with your mind

Got you think you're gettin' 'head, but your fallin' behind

Yo, DMX said, "Lord, send me a sign"

Read a little Revelation, and that's what you gon' find

See, in every line, I present you with facts

And yo, in every rhyme I desire to impact you (thank you)

Go inside of your mind

I rewind and go back to a place or a time

You traveled off of the map

Do the math, yeah

Money put a smile on your face

Same thing that make you smile will make your smile go away (yeah!)

See, the riches of the world might get you the chains and Nike's

But in the end, neither one of those'll save your life


[Chorus]

Until I die

I'ma take my hopes and dreams

And use 'em to glorify His Name

Until I die

I'ma rep the one true God

And I don't care 'bout what nobody say

Until I die

I'ma spread the truth to this nation

And show 'em there's a God that can save 'em

Until I die

And here I take my last breath out of my chest

I'm gon' praise Him


[Verse 2]

MTV knows how to get the alley-oop (yeah)

All they gotta do is mix a little lie with some truth

Come out here, girl! Let me fix that face up

Need a little less clothes and a lot more makeup (haha!)

Get all caked up

Oh no, here we go

Another episode, skippin' down the Hollywood road (haha!)

Where you goin'? Nobody knows, nobody cares

Then you wonder why the girls around the world insecure (yeah)

It's so stupid

You want the truth, kids?

The media's just one big lie of losin' (come on!)

It's like I'm watchin' a movie, world's so full of actors (actors!)

Take a moment listen to me, I'm not actin'

I'm just askin'

Tell me if you're ready to die (nah)

If it happened today, where would your soul reside?

Devil laugh 'cause he know how to play with your face

So I just laugh back and pick up the mic and I say


[Chorus]

Until I die

I'ma take my hopes and dreams

And use 'em to glorify His Name

Until I die

I'ma rep the one true God

And I don't care 'bout what nobody say

Until I die

I'ma spread the truth to this nation

And show 'em there's a God that can save 'em

Until I die

And here I take my last breath out of my chest

I'm gon' praise Him


[Verse 3]

I'd rather die today for what I believe in (come on)

Than die a hundred years from now for no reason (well, why?)

Atheists are like, "I don't know why I'm breathin'

Yeah, there's gotta be a reason, but there's no Jesus" (haha)

Standin' up screamin', "He's not real!" (he's fake!)

Honestly, I'm sorry that's the way y'all feel (fake!)

World's kinda like, to me, just a roller coaster

You in it for the ride? Well, what's up when it's over? (yeah, yeah)

You keep doin' wrong when you know it ain't right (yeah)

How you live today, it turns eternal life (eternal life)

You let it slip away, and it's gon' blast you

Keep the sin up in your face, then the truth gon' pass you

My momma used to tell me I should follow my dreams (come on!)

But most of my life I just been followin' me (yeah!)

So I'ma take this moment to release my shine

And yo, forget about me

Let His will be done, man, not mine


[Chorus]

Until I die

I'ma take my hopes and dreams

And use 'em to glorify His Name

Until I die

I'ma rep the one true God

And I don't care 'bout what nobody say

Until I die

I'ma spread the truth to this nation

And show 'em there's a God that can save 'em

Until I die

And here I take my last breath out of my chest

I'm gon' praise Him
