Can I Get A Witness lyrics

I rap for christ, no crossin` the line
I don`t water down lyrics or forget the spine
I gotta come bold, cause i`ve been sold
On the word that`ll never grow old
Ya see, i was raised in a godly home
And i was taught as a child who is on the throne
I learned to have faith and i learned to stand
Up for the father, who is in command
Ya know, back in the day, i was taught to pray
Ya see, a livin` god would have it no other way
I wanna know who`s down with what i say
Yo fellas, there`s no time to play, so get busy

(chorus)
Can i get a witness
Does anyone agree?
Can i get a witness
To stand for their belief?
Can i get a witness
To carry on the torch?
Bring honor to the father
Give glory to the lord

Who`s in the army, who`s servin` the king?
Callin` all brothers to the center ring
We`re in one accord, we`re servin` the lord
Eternal life is our reward
We gotta come together and build morale
Yo, what are ya waitin` for, the time is now
I gotta ask y`all, do i stand alone?
I need a second motion on the microphone
Can i get a witness to what you`ve heard
I need a posse to give me da word (word!)
Jump on my back, let`s kill the hype, boys
I need a witness for jesus christ

(repeat chorus)

Don`t stand for me or for dc talk
Til ya know in your heart that we ain`t the bulk
We`re just three young brothers
Who were willin` to serve
Took a stand, threw the devil a curve
By usin` our talent for the almighty lord
When he gave us a gift, he gave us a chore
Called the great commission, it`s like fishin`
But souls are the goal of this christian mission
Claim to be willin`, yo, let it be known
Don`t hide ya faith like a dog on a bone
We need a soldier who`s got it in check
And a fit witness who`s full in effect

(repeat chorus 2x)

I gotta say a few
Can i get a witness?
I`m talkin` about a witness for jesus christ
Y`all know what i`m sayin`?
It`s time to get busy people
It`s time to get busy out there
Servin` your lord and savior
Yo, he`s askin` you now, "can i get a witness?"
If y`all know what`s up with that
If you down with this movement
I need some help
I need somebody to get my back out there
Because jesus christ, our lord and savior
Cold did it for us
Now it`s our turn to return this favor
And cold do it for him
Ya know what i`m sayin`?
