about

The Sword is the first official release of The Underground Railroad II: Civil War. This underground project contains original songs written to industry beats (for the purposes of illustrating the restorative power of the Gospel), and the central theme of this song and the songs to follow will be spiritual warfare, the internal battles with sin, the external spiritual forces that we have to contend with, the mission of preaching the gospel to those captured and enslaved by sin, and the victory and freedom that is found in Christ alone.

Follow me on YouTube and on BandCamp to stay up-to-date with the drops.

This song contains the instrumental to "Cannon" by Lil' Wayne, produced by Don Cannon.

lyrics

The Sword
Yo!
Straight from the pulpit preaching
I won’t speak it
If it don’t come from the canon
And it’s a fearful thing
To fall into an angry
God’s hands man
It’s only by His grace
That I’m standing
Only by his mercy I’m breathing
As a true believer
On the basis of my faith
In King Jesus
He’ll receive me
I can trust on what he say
It’s in his word
He never leaves me
He takes the burdens of my soul
And his yoke is something easy
This life ain’t nothing cheesy bout it
More than talk, we be about it
If my enemies surround me
Ain’t enough for me to doubt him
Even if they start to pounding
I’ll just blow the trumpet louder
And either they will get from round me
Or the lost become the found
The mission
For souls we’re fishing
The great commission
If they listen
Watch souls get lifted
From positions of perdition
To a whole new living
Because our sinning
Left the Holy God
Oh so livid
The Son was given
And he came here
In full submission
And died the death
That I deserved to die
And now I have
Abundant life
I was dead in sin
He told me come to life
That’s how He brought me in
That’s how I joined the fight

Hook
He died for me
I’m living for the Lord
The One who sanctify me
Everyday by his word
If you’re looking for me
You can find me in the war
Battling my flesh
And to the fight
I bring a sword
He is my hope
This life is no joke
We in a fixed fight
And I’m here for all the smoke
I’ll carry His sword
Everywhere that I go
Gonna fight
Til the sweet chariot swings low

See there’s a word
From the Lord
As He moving
All throughout the corners
Of the world
I pray He use me
To make evidence
Of the fact
That’s he’s choosing
The most unlikeliest
And weakest of the losers
He ain’t stupid
He’s the God
Who got the juice
Enough to do it
He saw what I was doing
Could’ve left me
Saying screw it
Covered in my filth
But through His blood
He had removed it
Brought me into covenant
And I ain’t even Jewish
There’s nothing bout me worthy
Everything about me dirty
Til you factor in the blood
And risen Savior sitting sturdy
He’s the God who sent the flood
And caused for Sodom to be burning
He took His own wrath
And then He got up in the morning
That’s power unmatched
Nothing higher than Him, facts
On His promise I relax
Sin is whack
I promise that
I’m never going back
The devil thought he had me
He thought wrong
And now he mad
And God just be
Giving me these songs
And I’m glad
That I can be numbered
With the saints
I’m so 100
It’s a wonder
That He loves me and I thank
The God in heaven
Who had bled and
Died while hanging
In my place
Now I’m living for hope
When I go home
To see His face

Hook
He died for me
I’m living for the Lord
The One who sanctify me
Everyday by his word
If you’re looking for me
You can find me in the war
Battling my flesh
And to the fight
I bring a sword
He is my hope
This life is no joke
We in a fixed fight
And I’m here for all the smoke
I’ll carry His sword
Everywhere that I go
Gonna fight
Til the sweet chariot swings low
