Lecrae - Facts Lyrics
Peace does not come before salvation and salvation does not come without truth
I will only tell the truth
I will only tell the truth
Incoming!
Truth, truth, truth, truth, truth
People wonderin', "Is he woke or just a new slave?"
Old religion, he just covered it with new chains
Choppin' out the church, he ain't real, he fake
He divisive, he don't rep the King, he just want the fame
Aw man, now they actin' like I'm suddenly political
Told me shut my mouth and get my checks from Evangelicals
Boy, my momma raised me, on Angela and Eldridge
Chuck Berry made it, but the credit went to Elvis
I just think I'm too real, I grew up on 2Pac
You grew up thinkin' that the Panthers was some terrorists
I grew up hearin' how they fed my momma eggs and grits
"'Crae, they say you should follow in the steps of King"
I say, "You've forgotten how they shot him in the streets"
I ain't really changed, it's the same old rebel
Still a radical, I'm passionate, it's just another level (leggo!)
AT told me I should fight back
They don't like that (they don't)
Just know if you rock the boat you better have a life raft (what?)
BJ told me I should fight back
They don't like that
Just know if you rock the boat you better have a life raft, woo!
I will only tell the truth (facts)
People cannot abide by a truth. They prefer fantasy over reality... (facts)
I will only tell the truth
I am for truth no matter who tells it
I will only tell the truth
I am for justice no matter who it is for or against (facts)
Rose up out the dungeon
I was feelin' haunted
Now I'm bein' hunted
And I'm on a hunnid
Hit the gas, gunning
Skip the past running
Tell 'em they could bring that
If they really want it
I, I'm on the hometeam
You just running with the wrong team
Never take 'em with the heavyweights or, boy, you'll die and need a little protein
Southside off a Yellowstone, had a ham bone and a white tee
Got a 12-pack of that real talk in the trunk, tell 'em, "Come find me"
Draped up, dripped out, covered in the blood
Man, I hang where they cripped out, sippin' on the mud
Where they swingin', got the whips out, watch 'em pop trunk
Yeah, I know it's hella dark, but I'm tryna light it up
Now these people swear they on me, sendin' out threats
Told me keep my mouth shut, told me be a Stepin Fetchit
I will not oblige to your colonized way of faith
My Messiah died for the world, not just USA
They say, "Jesus was Conservative"
Tell 'em, "That's a lie"
No, He not a Liberal either if you think I'll choose a side
They say, "'Crae, you so divisive, shouldn't be a black church"
I say, "Do the math, segregation started that first!"
Hey, you want unity? Then read a eulogy
Kill the power that exists up under you and over me
I said, you want unity? Then read a eulogy
Kill the power that exists up under you and over me, woo! (facts)
So reconciliation or conciliation requires defrauded parties to be made whole. Not just apologizing for the offense
I was waitin' for the right time to tell y'all how I feel
And, yeah, I know that it hurts, but look, it's gon' heal
I waited 'til I was on prime time before I let y'all know
And you prolly won't wanna hear my music no mo'
But it's all good, man, I love y'all
Hope you know that I'm black black
Traded my Smart Car for a Cadillac, can you handle that?
And I love God
I love Jesus, the one out of Nazareth
Not the European with the ultra perm and them soft eyes and them thin lips
And I'm still hood
Been in the 'burbs for quite some time
But I still might hit the gas station for the Lemonheads and the pork rinds
And I'm on one
Yeah, 116 been real
Binghamton, Tennessee, from Third Ward to Ceiling Hill
And I live a multiple world, call me a hybrid 'cause I'm so black
Young theologian who educated, but still be at that Chicken Shack, yeah
Lemme get a two piece

Lecrae Facts Comments
🙌 ya
Lecrae I feel u! and Tbh, I understand you and only those who have had some experience with what u rap about will understand; others who had no experience at all will not agree with the direction ur songs are heading. Even ur style and ur haircut, it all fits what u r trying to promote and that's facts and that's equally for all races esp us blacks. I pray that God blesses u for taking such a stand and may u never lack anything but may all that u have continue to multiply. God bless u!
Kill the power over and under is God and Satan which will never have unity
favorite part at 2:30
This guy is telling yall!!!
Love ya Lecrae!
Most people don’t like the truth but I do
That is a Fact
Did anybody notice what he said at 2:10 ??
My favorite rapperrrrrrr u went off on this one to GOD BE THE GLORY
Yo KRIT shoulda been on this one
If you want unity, tell em read a eulogy.
Man spitting facts with flare
Yes Lecrae!
Hey guys, can you help me understand what Lecrae means by "You want unity then read a eulogy, kill the power that exists up under you and over me"?
Lecrae i still listen to you & 116 & Support U All because I suppose your one of the few Christians left who Don't Support Donald Trump! I DO NOT Support Donald Trump
💎✝️
I love your music and I believe in god
why does the ending sound like he's quitting rap
I love where he said, " I love Jesus, the one out of Nazareth, not the European with the ultra perm and them soft eyes and them thin lips." Lol!
Unapologetically black!! My Jesus is not a blue eyed, blonde haired, thin lipped European! I’m with you Crae
Get them lemonheads my dude. Havent listend to your music in about 5 years. Definitely reviveing my old church days.
Oh My Oh My....this...right....here!!!
Billy Graham also faught againt racism and equality dont beleive it? Watch the documentary. He broke the physical barrier between his black and white brothers. People were mad at him, but he wasn't phased. Instead he called them out on their b.s. and said the word of God is for All ,no matter your color! Amen Lecrae wasnt the only one
I understand Lecrae is working through some stuff, and I like it. I just don't think he should expect people to react a certain way. Everyone is going to take this differently.
Dis he say “kill the power that rules under you and over me?” Did I hear that right Lacrae? Who is over you if you serve the one and only TRUE GOD!?? And under “us” I would assume that would be the enemy, who they call Lucifer? I’m confused..someone help me with the words! #flabergasted #listentothewordscarefully
I’ve been a fan of Lecrae going all the way back to Real Talk. And this right here after all these years is easily the best. And the reason being is this is without the most transparent Crae has gotten with his lyricis. And that’s saying something considering he’s always transparent. This, good bad ugly, and Go Hard are hands down his best work
The ending was so fire 🔥 and the message was so strong
Yo I dance to this song so hard
*I used to not care for Lecrae much, but then I saw him in person and he's really humble and full of Christ. Love his music* :)
how many beats
lecrae: yes
I WILL ONLY TELL THE TRUTH 🙏🏾🕊
Love the new music
You can't stop him from putting the FACTS out there
"They tell me i should fight back they dont like that" gets me everytime
This dope GOD is Awesome
IT SUCKs
Israelites are rising!!!!
3.07 was woooo 🔥🔥👌👌
Lecrae is today's Martin Luther King .,Truth
I was listening to this song in my car
This is solid. Praise God.
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
one of my favorite songs
My dad had the rep come to an event so he the rep can play music for people that need jesus
Will it be a sin to twerk on this?
Lecrae I know you probably won’t see this. It hurts to see how politics have been brought into a lot of your music. Chances are that I’m still going to listen (I have been since rebel), but I think it can take away from your talent. I do love the way that you have brought in secular artists. It gets the word to a way bigger audience
This is music
How’s he on his thousands she should be on his million subscribers
This came out on my birthday!!!!😮😦☺☺😀
🔥 🔥 🔥 Been a fan since Real Talk bro. Keep it up Crae. U mean a lot
So lecrae, we are all the colors of the grain of sand that God blew into existence. it's a shame that your allowing fame get to you.that's what you wanted anyway money over truth.Well money as you know doesn't get to heaven. Chose this day who your going to serve brother whom you going to serve!!!! I never thought that you'd become radical. ..but I guess you become secular when you hang with people who are not living right. it's a shame now that I won't listen to anymore of your music
wooooaaweeee!!! praise Him outloud
Bru.....i'm just speechless....still sitting with mouth wide open. He shut ALOT of people up with this one.
Reaching people left & right.
There is control and acceptance. Jesus chose the path of martyrdom and love (acceptance). If you want to find evil seek out control. If you seek God learn to accept others and yourself.
This man is an example of following Jesus. You motivate me bro Lecrae, your music fuel me to keep doing what's right. Glory be the most high!
Is this man a Christian?? Is this man something to listen to for followers of Christ??
REALLY??
Well tell me how the UCK the word "FUCK" is in his lyric??
goog. God Blesing you
Love this one
check my trap beat @aim Dredee on all social network
lecrae?
Okay before the beat dropped I knew this was bout to be 🔥 fire haven't heard the full song yet 26 seconds in and I'm pumped
1:38 fire
Honestly he's talking more about his race and being black than he is about God. He has done it multiple songs on this album. Totally straying from the older songs that had more of a passion for Christ. Now it's kind of separating out a certain group of people.
Winter Ellis he's talking about hypocrites in the church who don't want to address racism in the nation and the church and only want him to talk about what they want him to talk about... Pretty simple the Lord spoke the truth he called the Pharisees whitewash Graves for lying and Leading the People astray... So he's making the point that he's not going to be bullied and told what to say in Jesus name...??
Very Kanye influenced
Lacrea is the boss
This would be so much more fire if it went to the 0 to 100 instrumental!!! Wish there was an acapella version so we could make this happen :DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
I just started listen to it again. I got to listen to the songs Throughlly last time i got lost for not listening to the words. The song was Sidelines listen to that song care fully.
The Best
Lecrae still going.
This music is awesome!

This is probably one of the most transparent and unrelenting songs Ive ever heard from him. But to be completely honest I lol'd hard when he said "no you think I'm too black" xD
