Let me tell you how this all came to be
I was sittin' diggin' in the word Matthew 23
I'm thinking this is it finally victory
Then the Holy Spirit hit quick convicted me

Could it be it's just all hypocrisy
I'm a modern day pharisee quite possibly

Tell me what's the use if I know the law
But the true living God I never knew at all

I got to practice what I preach

It don't matter what I'm saying on these beats

In the church or when I'm on the streets
Tell me what's the use if I
Don't practice what I preach

If that's the case I should expect the worst

No surprise why the word
Would reject the church

I mean why would you respect my turf
If I don't comply myself and resect it first

Brothers and sisters in Christ this is
A wake up call
To myself included I can relate to y'all
Right now is the time I got to start living it

The last thing I want to be is a hypocrite

I got to practice what I preach

It don't matter what I'm saying on these beats

In the church or when I'm on the streets
Tell me what's the use if
I don't practice what I preach

Make no mistakes it's a must that
I be honest y'all
What's in the dark shall come to
Light that's a promise y'all
I know what someone say it ain't
No surprise to me
"I ain't a Christian so none of this applies to me"

Indeed that's why off and from the start
I sincerely pray THE LORD will
Soften up your heart
Until then beware of any false prophets
Vicious wolves disguised as sheep
That look harmless
Don't be fooled before you follow suit

I mean really take a look and
Recognize them by their fruit

The good news is even as I'm writing this

I realize only faith brings forth righteousness

Yet I can't neglect how I live and behave
Cause faith without works will
Only end up in the grave

Right nows the time we got to start living it

The last the you want to be is a hypocrite

We got to practice what I preach

We got to practice what I preach

In the church or when I'm on the streets
Tell me what's the use if
I don't practice what I preach
Come on put yours hands up
If you got to stand
This hypocrisy it's got to stop
It's time to man up

I said this hypocrisy it's got to
Stop it's time to it's time to
Come on put yours hands up
If you got to stand up
This hypocrisy it's got to stop
It's time to man up

I said this hypocrisy it's got to
Stop it's time it time

I got to practice what I preach

We got to practice what I preach

In the church or when I'm on the streets
Tell me what's the use if I don't
Practice what I preach

I got to practice what I preach

We got to practice what I preach

In the church or when I'm on the streets
Tell me what's the use if I don't
Practice what I preach
