L.A.D.I.E.S.
Back then if I was a Jew the life that I led would
not be common/ I would be in prayer shawls anticipatin'
His comin'/ between 1 and 30 A.D. I'd be under the
Romans/ thankin' Yaweh that I'm not a slave, Gentile, or
woman/ now don't get it twisted a woman had to be
honored/ if you came from out of her womb you had to
obey your momma/ for the fact that she was a woman
wasn't the problem/ it's because she was forbidden to
publicly read the Talmud/ plus only allowed to be either in
the balcony or on the floor divided to avoid problems/ and
forbade to pray out loud/ when it came to religious life for
women it was grey outside/ till Christ came in the picture
switched up some customs/ now these same women are
providin' Jesus with substance/ leavin' Jewish men
grieved/ they ain't agree/ cause out of these women's
means they ministered to their needs
Look at Jesus maneuva in spite of the culture/
taken ladies and shapin' em makin' em soldiers/ peep this
type of behavior was taboo/ Jesus seen with Joanna (Luke
8:13) would make Him a bad Jew/ but Jesus called some of
the grimiest women/ like prostitutes even some of the
slimiest women/ in hot pursuit/ women are weak is not the
truth/ and just to prove this point ladies I got the proof/
wouldn't be a Timothy without Timothy's moms/ Eunice
speakin' to Tim in them spiritual psalms/ the way women
were treated then these are similar times/ but yet the men
of God recognize ya strength/ who were the first witnesses
of the empty tomb/ who birth Jesus being a virgin Holy
Spirit consumed/ who stood for God way back in them
Exodus times/ and wouldn't even let em kill they son
(Exodus 1:16)
Jesus did walk with women in a special way/ this
was odd for men in the first century/ Look at God callin'
women to the ministry/ Jesus did walk with the ladies
(Da T.R.U.T.H.): Just think about this/ you're real fit in Abercrombie and Fitch/ and when you in the mall you
thinkin' about how to catch fish/ imagine you in Von Dutch
on a date/ no lust in the place/ dude got a crush cause how
you hustle your faith/ you ain't tryin' be tuck at the waist/
cause you spend more time in the presence of God than
adjustin' your face/ listen let me cut to chase/ and
encourage the beauty of holiness you should just want to
be chased/ (FLAME): Ladies we know it's real and it gets
hard sometimes/ especially with the pressure of being
flawless now/ you can't do enough crunches to be the
perfect woman/ God ain't lookin' for perfect size but a worshippin' woman/ ok you gain weight maybe had an abortion/ made a mistake had a divorce and/ it still ain't over Jesus forgives this is the gospel/ so don't let that stuff stop you
