Lecrae

While there’s no sure route to carving out a significant presence in the music industry, there’s always something to be said for remaining true to one’s self. Since arriving on the scene with his 2004 debut Real Talk, Lecrae has been occupying two different yet not entirely opposing worlds: the sacred and the profane. Which is to say that his art, not unlike his life, has been as much about inspiring the streets, and about justice, freedom, and interrogating real-world issues, as it is about his personal journey of faith. His music has long served as a call to arms for those willing to sacrifice for a cause beyond themselves. Still, he won’t be boxed in to any genre or made to serve as a poster-child for any particular agenda. Following a host of celebrated … more »

Yeah, I got a question, after the show
After the set, after the music stops, what's next? 
Are we just writing songs or are we concerned 
With uniting a people to follow 
The great commission of christ
Yeah let's get it, let's go

Back in the day I was a lunch line rapper
After that I guess I was a punch line rapper
Then I got saved and sometime after
Ya boy came back as a frontline rapper
And when I say the frontlines, that's not a front line
I'm out here preachin' christ on the frontlines
And no it ain't about rockin' stages 'cause 
Some of my engagements are out on the pavement yeah
I'm out to take the bible, create disciples
Who make disciples, disciple-cycles
That's why I want the beats to knock so after 
The music stops you can meet the rock I pray
That you would know him well, this is like show and tell
It's more than a show, I'm showing you emmanuel
So yeah I'm hopin' that you're likin' the flow 
But it's only so you could know that 
God I'm writing it for let's go

After the show, after the set
After the music stops what's next?
Will there be fellowship, prayer, disciples
Will you open your bibles after the music stops
After it's over, after it ends
After the music stops, what then?
Will you understand that christ is king?
Or will you just like the words we sing after the music stops

I recorded a couple songs some fast some slow
So the listeners would know the importance of the show
The importance of the show not to excite 
These folks but make god's truth relevant
Ignite these folks
Discipleship is our call but we make disciples
This is not a suggestion, create disciples
The teachin' is a process, it's not overnight 
And it's not a stage and a mic nah, it's life on life christ 
Walked with twelve, ate with twelve
Talked with twelve, shaped the twelve
Invested in 'em well you could say that he made the twelve
Who made many more, who made plenty more
Now it's on you and me if there's anymore
1 teach, 2 teach, 3 teach, 4 teach, 5 teach
6 teach, 7 teach more, this is what we've been commissioned
It's the reason why I write
So that you could hear the truth
Not so you can say I'm tight whoa

After the show, after the set
After the music stops what's next?
Will there be fellowship, prayer, disciples
Will you open your bibles after the music stops
After it's over, after it ends
After the music stops, what then?
Will you understand that christ is king
Or will you just like the words we sing after the music stops

So, we write this for the right the speak of was righteous
And then we mic check for a culture who likes the hypeness
Some say we keep it crunk, some say we hype man
We just wanna pump the resurrection of the christ man
We in the -burbs and the hoods that's hostile
We share a common view like synoptic 
Gospels and you know we keep a couple young dudes 
Around us and teach 'em the same truth god used to ground us
This is a lifestyle so, when the mic's down 
I pray people follow christ when they turn the lights down
I pray that everybody playin' this song will be 
Challenged by everything I had to say in this song
I don't do this for the money
I don't do this for fame, I don't do this so 
The industry can know my name, I do this in hopes 
To glorify yeshua the king, if you're feelin' me 
You know you should be doin' the same let's go

After the show, after the set
After the music stops what's next?
Will there be fellowship, prayer
Disciples, will you open your bibles after the music stops
After it's over, after it ends
After the music stops, what then?
Will you understand that christ is king
Or will you just like the words we sing after the music stops
