DEFENDER'S RAP

• Yeah, I notice when people notice me
• My exterior is the only way they know it’s me
• I’m full of holes and scars, my skin’s marked up
• But qualified to light up a world of darkness
• A day walker, I love walkin’ in the sunlight
• I look dirty but I’ve been cleaned on the inside
• It’s revolutionary, he’s coming now for fellas and they can look at us strange
• But ain’t nothing that they can tell us, cause
•  
• We are children of the light
• Royal rulers of the day
• Saints, no prisoners of the night
• Trust and love will lead the way
• We are free
•  
• Yeah, I’m free to rock this mic to walk right in a dark night lighted by the sun (we are free)
• I’m so free that I can fly while ya’ll can’t even crawl into a ball of freedom
• In my life I count the cost I take lost accused of treason
• And I could die for this cause and you might just be the reason
• And in order to if I must die it’s denial of self
• And if you claim to be the way that means there ain’t no one else
• I trust it, done, there ain’t no room for discussion
• So if you just don’t get it then let the just come with it
• I know that much more is required of all that I’ve been given
• But if ya’ll claim to be alive then you gotta start livin
• You know why
•  
• We are children of the light
• Royal rulers of the day
• Saints, no prisoners of the night
• Trust and love will lead the way
• We are free
•  
• And him the only one to take me out of Babylon
• And him create me right and wrong
• And him create me script and song
• And that’s why we stand firm upon the rock on which salvation, man
• And so we love the prospect and hope to put our helmet on
• And that is why we build upon for each and every chosen one
• Respectful to the elder-men who give guidance and correction
• So don’t you quench the spirit man
• The Word is truth, the Word is one
• The Messiah give you Shalom
• Whoa-o-oah
•  
• We are children of the light
• Royal rulers of the day
• Saints, no prisoners of the night
• Trust and love will lead the way
• We are free
