If the streets ever needed a voice of hope, a messenger of the Truth, an unashamed, unafraid, lucid, remnant believer of righteousness; a fallible leader from among their own to identify with; whose heart beats with compassion for the streets; they should pay close attention to an unlikely contender from Fort Worth, Tx. This young man knows what it’s like to live on the streets and not just run them. He knows what it’s like to have no place to lay your head, unless it’s underneath a bridge, an abandoned house, or an abandoned car. While other teenagers were adjusting to life in middle school, he had to adjust to living the streetlife. At the age of 13, he dropped out of school and ran away from home, venturing into criminal life. Feelings of hurt, pain, betrayal of trust, and hatred from suffering molestation, he grew up with unforgiveness in his heart and a mind set on revenge. Filled with anger from a childhood stripped for another man’s pleasure, he found himself in and out of jail. Searching for real love to fill the voids and hurt in his heart, it seemed like there was no hope until he met the One who knew him before he was born- Jesus Christ. Who is this outcast, who was more than able to overcame the odds stacked against him? Introducing a voice crying out from the wilderness, Chris Martinez aka Caleb. Caleb from the gospel hip hop duo Con-10-derz of the Faith, made a full commitment to live for Christ in 2000 and has been living saved ever since. He always had a passion for telling the story of the streets, but when he became born again, he wanted to offer hope in Jesus Christ. Caleb is spreading the Gospel of Jesus Christ through rap music and has been doing so for 6 plus years. God later crafted him with the gift of being a solid music producer and he is the founder of A.W.I. Productions. He became ordained as an elder in 2005 under the leadership of Bishop Robert Young at New Jerusalem Tabernacle of Worship, where he currently serves as Youth Pastor. He married his beautiful wife in 2006 and has been blessed with a seed from God to pass on the mantle in the future. Caleb is a contender of the faith, standing ready and more than able to take the message of the Gospel to the streets with his first solo offering from Con10derz Muzic/ A.W.I. Productions entitled “Jesus Christ N UR Hood”, to be released in the summer of ’07.

Lyrics
VERSE 1 This is my prayer to you God I want you to move in my boy’s life like a U-Haul You know my dawg I used to run the streets with Side by side we use ride and creep with Gats on our sides creepin’ on a come up We partied all night all the way to sun up And fight for our set if someone runs up And die for our set if someone guns up Smoked weed everyday filled our lungs up We use to say that’s the way we would raise our sons up Yea we was jacked up a lil in the mind But we had each others’ backs so we ride side by side Club after club met girl after girl Two playas tryin’ to come up in this world Drink after drink till we hurled and we hurled We didn’t realize we was caught up in this world HOOK Set my boy free (8X) VERSE 2 I remember times when I was ‘bout to get jumped When I turned around God I seen my boy I remember times when he was ‘bout to get jumped When he turned around God he seen his boy We used to save two blunts for the end of the night Play chess and express whatever’s on our chest Talkin’ ‘bout that it’s time to invest In some bullet proof vests Livin’ this way we ‘bout to see death Everybody used to say that we was no good And there’s no way we would ever do good But there was times when I had nothin’ to eat And he made sure I had somethin’ to eat We used to talk the same even thought the same At times I thought we even walked the same So I know that he felt a lil strange When I told him I wanna walk out this game HOOK VERSE 3 Then somethin’ happened Some know what happened I got in the church house That’s what happened Man all my boys in the crew started laughin’ They knew I wasn’t playin’ when I wasn’t laughin’ Long story short this caused a separation Me and my boys started havin’ complications No there is no type of communication This is what happens in sanctification Yes this is kind of a strange situation But we got two different destinations I accept the call of the Lord’s invitation Now I’m part of the Lord’s congregation I long for the day to have a conversation I know this will happen I can’t be impatient This is my prayer God my deep meditation I pray that my boy meets the Lord’s salvation HOOK
