The Label
[Intro: Sample]
"All right, did everybody get the message?"
"Yeah"
"That's good, because the message here is very important"

[Intro: Zae da Blacksmith]
Yo, it's Chriscentric Records
I got the family with me on this one
Apologist on the beat
Let's do this... yeah!

[Verse 1: Zae da Blacksmith]
Yeah, it's a brand new season
Like you're feeling the breeze combined with the heat
That's what you get when Christcentric speech is shining on beats
It's that Apologist, abide in Christ, melodic mystique
With Stract on the track, I'm like "keep rewinding it please"
Y'all know me, I like my rhymes rugged and the beat sickening
So don't sleep, beloved, on these brothers that I kick it with
Give you a little bit of what the Spirit works with His Word
He dispersed and we inserted in verses
Christcentric's the brand, the cruz fam
We carrying the torch but not in a group or a band
'Cause while the record label days is over, my label is getting stronger
Like when they put Jesus in that tomb but He rolled the boulder
It's called redemption, rebirth and perseverance
For which we give credit to the Spirit, even for these lyrics
As for the foundation of Christcentric
It's called finding peace in Christ
What a concept, right? Friendship
Who would have that the legacy of the traditional
Could be such a breath of fresh air, it's medicinal
As far as I'm concerned, this is what the genre's missing, dude
So sho nuff, I'mma be like "this what you should listen to"
It's music from and for the faith, plus we got official truth
20 years up in the game, still don't miss you with the troops
And I'm ready for another 10 and then some
Now let me bring my brother Chrys in, you're welcome
[Verse 2: Chrys Jones]
See I'm the drummer boy, but I spit it though
Mixing and mastering for the Master both in mono and stereo
So serious as a lyricist, making clear in this music
That the Savior is revealed, not mysterious
No subliminal back mask or hidden lights
If I'mma hit 'em I best believe I'mma give 'em Christ
He is the light who can give us life and fix our strife
Between His Father and the seed of Him who took the bite
We either chasing God or dreams, I pray I take the latter
And point the people to the King descending, Jacob's ladder
Without the King in these bars, this ain't no special music
We leading to the house of God, the real Bethel Music
I cut my teeth on sound doctrine, it's not an option
To offer up concoctions full of the world's toxins
Instead of tossing off the truth like we running options
Still offer listeners the gospel of adoption
I ain't concerned with being put on dudes' blacklists
I'm forging in my own lane like Zae da Blacksmith
It's feeling like the golden era, having flashbacks
Praising Christ with these artifacts, like Abstract
Bringing wisdom you can't find in most colleges
While polishing rhyme schemes and punchlines with knowledge in
Staying focused, no matter who acknowledges
We carrying the torch that was handed by Apologist
[Verse 3: Stract]
Analyze the timeline, for 20 years
You will find rhyme after rhyme for the divine shine
Yeah, it's a fine line between legacy and pedigree
We never hypothetically shooting for longevity
Readily we steadily place words to melody
Christ heavily stated while others try to sell a key
We'll never be jaded like dudes with the jealousy
Zealous we be on the mics, what they telling me
Didactic tactics, every tracklist
Stract be the least in the crew that is matchless
Catch this, flamethrowers is match-less
We covered in the blood, so the world say we match less
Game, set, match, less
Could be said, I'mma head for the Denny's, no racket
Attack it, that's what Zae said
So I'm back with the rapid
Flows from front to back, pack it
How boom-bap slap those who try to trap it
With the exception of Jones, I might clap it
We stand up to honor this Dominican Apologist
Trust he acknowledges where the real honor is
Crowns down to the ground, this is that sound
All hail to the King, we the background
It's Christcentric just to bring it back 'round
20 years in the game and it's us now
[Outro: Sample]
