James 2:14-19 Faith That Is Dead

Yo, check it
You got that superhero concept
But where’s your mindset?
How do you react when you hear that there’s a bomb threat
Would you let dudes put a knife to your mom’s neck
And yet, 'cause you don’t wanna get your knees wet
Brothers all around you, drowned, you impersonator
Or perpetrator, what’s in your heart, it will surface later
Saying «peace,» holding your cloak
You fabricator, in love with your cashmere
It’s time for the percolator
Wake up to the sun and rise the stakes up
Faith that don’t make works is made up
And made-up worth ain’t faith, it’s laid out
News flash: if I have, then you have
And my works don’t need you to do half
Ananias and Saphira types can move past
He’s given me more than I can give in a lifetime
So every note’s taken off of Him, my lifeline
Faith without works is dead
Take it straight to the head
If your actions don’t reflect what you said
If your actions don’t reflect what you said
Let this sink in your head
Your faith is dead
Faith without works is dead
Take it straight to the head
If your actions don’t reflect what you said
If your actions don’t reflect what you said
Let this sink in your head
Your faith is dead
Ayo, Greenpeace philanthropists can never manage this
Rolling cannabis, your green leaf okra be the damages
So slanderous, every high eventually vanishes
Your works alone are only temporary bandages
And the wounds, they go deep to the soul
But I’ll be around when they spin and sing a sweet song
Mind controlled, the philosophical heat’s on
The beat’s strong, and my faith-based works gon' prove wrong
Any false claim that moves on
The lies of the nominals that really do nada
That’s the reason we gon' rock the bladed Bambata
Without faith, your works slam back in your cara
A lotta pseudos practice discipline with tocara
But the gloves come on and they ain’t really tryna bother
So you can front with your fancy style
But I’mma show you I believe with my hands to the plow
Faith without works is dead
Take it straight to the head
If your actions don’t reflect what you said
If your actions don’t reflect what you said
Let this sink in your head
Your faith is dead
Faith without works is dead
Take it straight to the head
If your actions don’t reflect what you said
If your actions don’t reflect what you said
Let this sink in your head
Your faith is dead
Let’s take it back to the first sacrifice
Done by Christ, the pre-Incarnate
To give the naked a garment
He made 'em covered and clean
The covenant seen
Then He sent them to work the ground
With faith as the main theme
Believing that the Lord God would bring forth provision
The vision given was that a seed would come
So faith preceded works, every season one
Reason your lungs breathing, to please the Son
Ephesians 1, the chapter 2, verse 10
For the good news to spread, He chose the workmen
So do you believe His Word or believe in Him?
The Word in the flesh, to the cross we sent Him
The venom was poisonous, and we let Him
Lie to the dome, fly with a drone
But the powers of the air can’t reside in my home
The evidence is clear, like a Y chromosome, so
You believe? Cool, you ain’t alone
Even the demons believe and shudder, that’s known
Faith without works is dead
Take it straight to the head
If your actions don’t reflect what you said
If your actions don’t reflect what you said
Let this sink in your head
Your faith is dead
Faith without works is dead
Take it straight to the head
If your actions don’t reflect what you said
If your actions don’t reflect what you said
Let this sink in your head
Your faith is dead
