Hook:
I gotta represent (8x)
Verse 1:
I gotta represent for my king, ruler and creator of everything. Was lost, but now I’m found, headed for hell, now I’m heaven bound. It’s ya boy ROC, being all that I can be. Representing God on high, as well as Northern Cali. I don’t do this for myself, I'm doing it for Christ. The one who died for my sins as the perfect sacrifice. People thinking I’m a stoner cuz I’m spitting dope lyrics, but I ain’t doing drugs, I’m just high on the spirit. Some still don’t get that you can be a Christian and a rapper, they find it really shocking, sorta like a bug zapper. Don’t hate on me for being a child of hip hop, been rhyming since age seven, and I won’t ever stop. At least I ain't cursing or bragging about cash, I’m just bragging about the fact that Jesus took out my trash. Unashamed of my faith, that’s why I’m writing all these songs, I ain’t no preacher, but I’m finna get my preach on
(Repeat hook)
Verse 2:
Going in for that second verse, still breathing, don't need no hearst. Blessed enough to be raised in church. Mama says I've been touched since birth. Giving praise hour after hour. Them demons running away in fear cuz they can't handle his power. You might think I'm corny, you might think I'm dumb, but i dont' really care cuz I'm living for the Son. What the future holds, only God knows it, but for now I've got the spirit and I ain't afraid to show it. Nothing they can say could ever affect me, cuz homie I've been called by G.O.D. To preach the gospel all across the world to every single man, woman, boy, and girl. Telling them all about the one that's been sent, that'll take away all their sins if they repent. I'll be sure to give him 100 percent. Cuz Jesus saved me so I gotta represent
(Repeat hook)
