I don't have a car no more so I can't go church this week,
Last year I wanted to go Reggae Sumfest, I rented a vehicle and take in the cost for air fare!
Time, nobody has enough, church always a rush fi done,
Preacher: "I have to cut dis one short due to time constraints"
Not once a Reggae Sumfest mi hear de artist seh him a stick to time,
More time a police haffi come and lock off de ting!
Everybody cuss when dance lock off too early but quick fi run outta church before offering collect,
Offering collecting everybody skint, stingy and giving greedily,
Vybz Kartel's gonna be around next week,
Yeah I know that, from last year it's been in my diary,
And I've got more than enough money to go,
Okay, okay, I know the Bible said come just as you are, okay, fair enough but when you goin dance 'hair did, nails did, everything big' another expense that coulda gone in the offering plate,
I can't go church dis week man I'm broke,
Yow my yute Aidonia is town mi a go pree him even if mi haffi walk yow......
Hmmmm
Imagine Christ saying hey yow Daddy mi nah go tek no beating wid whip and walk no long way fi dead fi nobody enuh, mi wha go pree Tarrus Riley,
Imagine dat eeh,
Forsaking a whole nation a people just fi go tek een one artist,
And if we are to be like Christ, aren't we supposed to save the nations?
Dat again, whine up and bruck out inna de dance but when it comes to jumping for His glory we all worried about who's looking and what they thinking,
I include myself, I am like this.... Who do you think inspired this piece?
No I can't move without a lil drink mayne, need the juice to intoxicate me, 'pass anoda bokkle, pass anoda bokkle'
Not once have I asked for the Holy Spirit to intoxicate me in order to "sing along and bruck loose for His glory"
There's nothing wrong with dancing for Jesus,
It's just that I didn't want people to look at me and say.... OMG, she's a weirdo.
They did it in the dance though,
Pointing fingers and laughing, discriminating and criticizing,
Saying I can't dance and I can't sing,
But my point remains,
I did it there despite of what they said,
Why should at church it be any different?
Something happens when I sing to Him,
When I call on His name and ask for more of His spirit,
Something ignites in the depths of my soul,
A part of me I didn't even know existed,
It sends a msg to my brain saying
Be not thoughtful of what your neighbour might think,
And when it manifests on the outside,
I really couldn't care less about who's lookin or what I'm saying
That said I don't know what I'm saying the Holy Spirit has taken over,
Filled me up and is using me as a portal of praise
Don't know why I didn't seek The Trinity earlier,
Wasted all my time at bus stops in the cold waiting to catch a bus then a train then 2 tubes to Wembley Stadium,
The money I wasted paying to go hear these artists fill my soul with nonsense,
Boi how I wish now that I went to that Goddy Goddy concert,
Woulda done me good, no lie,
But here I am Lord,
Thank you for your grace that's brought me back to your Throne of Grace,
Have your way with me, if you can use anything, you can use me,
I'm empty,
Restore and fill me Lord and use me for your Glory,
And let the next time I go to a dance, it's to minister to lost souls for your Kingdom
I need You to do that for me,
Just cleanse me, fill me and use me.
