Lecrae - Identity Lyrics

Artist: Lecrae

Album: Rebel

Genre: Hip Hop/Rap

Hair check, shoes check, brand new fit looking cool check, looking in mirror like "ooooh yes!"/ cover for an insecure dude check/ She wont' feel me and they wont like me if I ain't in them J's or them brand new Nikes/ but lets dig deeper inside my pysche/ when it's all said and done even I don't like me/ He live in the gym and his hair stay faded/ late model car so they think he made it/ but he's Christian he gave his life/ but he still ain't satisfied in the savior Christ/ still finds his identity in looks and cars/ if he only knew that he ain't have to look so hard/ If looked in God though it may seem odd he be so satisfied he could leave it all/

(D.A. T.R.U.T.H.)
How do I gauge success/Why do I say I'm blessed/Huh/Is it the car that I drive or the place that I rest or the way that I dress, now/Is the cause of my pride, the stage and the set or my face in the press, now/Cause the applause it dies/When the praise is less if my face is depressed, then/It's cause my value and worth is in the volume of the work I produce in the booth/It's a prize and a curse if defined by the perks when the truth is through/Man I'm goin' feel like I don't want to live no more/Cause they don't like me like they did in 04/So, I swallow my pride empowered by God, I'm complete in Him/He's got peace/God's priest/I'm in/In His presence weak-His strength/Meet His kin/We His brethren/Read this list/Me forgiven/He's dismissed guilt and my sin and I find my worth cause I'm Jesus' friend

(LeCrae)
Got her hair done, toes and nails/is that Her? well it's hard to tell/ cause she's caked up in so much make up/ it's like she's tryna make up for what she ain't but/ she's a saint/ but so confused/ cause she's been rejected by all these dudes/ that tell her on a scale of 10 she's a two/ but that ain't true if she only knew/ In Christ she is loved she secure and accepted/ She'll never be rejected by God who's elected her/ Her beauty is her Godliness/ and she ain't gotta try to flaunt it cause it's obvious/ Identity is found in the God we trust/ Any other identity will self destruct

(Chorus)
I'm not the shoes I wear. I'm not the clothes I buy/
I'm am not the house I live in/ I'm not the car I drive/
I'm not the job I work /You can't define my worth/
By nothing on God's green earth, my identity is found in Christ

    I am a 43 year old woman from Newark, Ohio. I am a woman of God, raising two children as a single parent. My daughter is 20 and just graduated from college and my son is 13 years old and is a gifted student w/ scholarships being offered to him already, God has truly blessed in this way. I love gospel music and have known God all my life and have instilled God's way of life into my children. I love to sing and love music and have every gospel CD known to man and I just purchased the LECRAE/REHAB CD and fell in love with it instantly. The rap/rock style of his music drew my children in to listening to his songs along with me and then when I printed out the words for them and myself it was just astounding how deep and profound his lyrics were. They really connected w/ my spirit and I have to say that of all the gospel music lyrics that I have heard that I have never heard words like Lecrae's as they were so powerful and meaningful and had a true grit about them lined with reality of life today. I'm sitting here at work now at my desk crying and praising the Lord listening to his music. I love and adore ALL of his music but the song "just like you" just hits me so hard that I can't stop listening to it. I just thank God for Lecrae and that he heeded the word of God by putting his talent to work that God has given him. I will continue to pray his strength in the Lord and want him to know that I am so very proud of him and love him with the love of Christ.Be Blessed Lecrae!!
