man up anthem- separating the boys from the men

got some questions about manhood…these amazing dudes…Lecrae, KB, Tedashii, Sho Baraka, PRo, Andy Mineo & Trip Lee have joined together through reachlife ministries to make an impact and offer some answers.

Yea, there is many things man is chasing after…they got some questions- we got some answers. – Sho Baraka

most of us in student ministry see the absence of dads everyday.  just last week in a local high school i was talking with some great students.  out of the three different groups of students, 75% of them were in homes were their biological dads were not present and there was admission that the relationship with the step dad was strained at best.  not sure what the folks at reachlife are offering when they roll out this curriculum, but guessing with the input from the list of hip hop dudes they may be on to some solid stuff.  who’s ready to man up?


Man Up Anthem•116 Clique – Lyrics:

All: MAN UP!

Lecrae:
Momma want some more Obama in me the hood want PAC hip hop wanna see the
Common in me sense is a senseless contradiction up a misfit trying fit
In. This ends when iStand up and see the hands that are standard holy is
The lamb(holy is the lamb) Now we holding you to man up cause we were made
In his image start looking at what you came from.

KB:
Right after Adam every atom in our anatomy had to make adamant after what
Adonai is against let me take you back to the Trinity never really just
Seen the evil deceit but Adam is the one who let it in.(Man up) Standing
Leading no, we ain’t leading we (Bump that) Basically little boys with
Muscles and a mustache! The femininity, we need a remedy that God made a
100 percent (strength) masculinity

Trip Lee:
Where the men at, seems like they all lost, none of them are on the scene,
Seems like they died off. They extinct but my dream is to rise up, we ain’t
Chasing the prize of the King the divine boss, but we fell away, now we
UnGodly we lose and we really got the blues like Navi, I want to celebrate
The dudes that’s beside me… fellows lets elevate

Tedashii:
Go ahead i say boy Get your shine on, if a sucker try to block you get your 9 on and
What I heard you gotta do to be a man now, stand up for yourself so I took
It in my hands now. And that’s the problem man we busy trying to solve it
All the while we walking dead man somebody bring the coffin, boy drop
Peach fuzz now you think that your a man cause you feeling yourself you
Need to man up!

Yea, there is many things man is chasing after…they got some questions- we got some answers.

Sho Baraka:
Sex and models, and tipping bottles back a pile of excuses right next to
Your bottle caps. A role of decks filled with names that you ain’t to
Please next to the stack of money, building up a heart of greed. Ice on his
Neck give the jokers a cold shoulder, he drunk all pride plus you loving
The hangover. You gotta whole lotta stuff that won’t amount to gain life
Will never make sense cause you never made change

PRo:
You got it Twisted sick life and fever, little man live to stack doe
Keebler. Man up! Get up out of the treehouse leave the cookies alone it’s
Time to eat meat now. Trying to show you a new way to live now, no charge
You can call it a freestyle without Christ you know how your man is, was
Born in a mans body like Tom Hanks in BIG.

Andy Mineo:
Being a man got nothing to do with age. You can be a boy till the day you
Lay in your grave. None of us behave in the image of who were made, cause
We fallen the ways it’s better known as the prey. Running from
Responsibility really we crave the easy way, out of places that call us to
Pull our weight. Man there going through everyday decisions are made,
Responding to the call God’s giving em from the…

All:
Man Up!
Andy:
