[Bridge + Hook]
You give me a shield of salvation for this battle
You give me Your strength to call Your name in this battle
Let praise to our God, praise to our God
Be like arrows straight to our enemies
Let praise to our God, Praise to our God
Be like arrows straight to our enemies
‘Cause this is war, this is war, and this is war
[Verse 1 - Canon]
(They call me Canon)
Now pardon me if my heart make it harder
I don' mean for me to be fallin off like a leaf
But I am gettin goin like the wind comin up on autumn
So much mud in my water
The life I took in was so tainted
Until I drunk a cup from the stream of the living Author
Though my days’ll get longer I keep my conscious on lock
And on guard like a barb of a clip was on the gas when I start up
This Gospel got me caught up
In the middle fightin the battle
For the sake of the Gospel is awesome
How I get awed
Still fightin when I’m followin Jesus, the King
Well you better believe it
Man I cannot break away when the whole world finna stumble when it crumble to pieces
Look around this a circle of people till a school yard till we down with the kingdom
Kings give us stripes like Adidas
So the enemies stay down but beneath us
Satan there won’t be no slaughter no beef
Bow down to the Father
And if God is honestly [?]
And because there won’t be no replacement
Can’t nobody word that can claim that statement
Jesus under God [?]
[Hook]
Let praise to our God, praise to our God
Be like arrows, straight to our enemies
Let praise to our God, praise to our God
Be like arrows, straight to our enemies
‘Cause this is war, this is war, and this is war
[Verse 2 - Deraj]
The load can be light or heavy depending on how you weigh it
Sing a new song but be careful of what you say it
‘Cause words hold power for it’s exposed
Catch it from a bow or bow just dependin on how I say it so
I say I’ll sing it ‘till it reach Heaven
I’ll never be home alone He’ll never leave Heaven no
Know (I know) I know just what he said
Just like the blood that flows a pretty rose
He wrote it all in red and that the stars are overhead
And the flowers are sleepin better
‘Cause [?]
I can trust what said
He love me when I was ugly
He could’ve left me for dead
He always be thinking about of me
He chose to love me instead of in spite of what all they say
I was never beggin for bread
Now I’m dancing out of my clothes
And y’all think I’m gone in the hate
I’m lookin up overhead and I told em go on ahead of me
I’m still workin on all these melodies
[Bridge]
You give me a shield of salvation for this battle
You give me Your strength to call Your name in this battle
[Verse 3 - Trip Lee]
(Yes sir)
I see an army marchin to its place
Guns in the air with a grimace on their face
Armor on their bodies’ military boots laced
I can’t make it out alive oh Lord
So lord give me grace (please)
This is war believe me it seem crazy
Smoke all in the air till the atmosphere hazy
But I ain’t starin at the enemy that hates me
I’m got my eyes on You Lord you amaze me
Hey, they try to tell me that I’m gone
On the wrong side of the battle I should go home
Hold up, but I should tell em let em on
The side of the light and a Juda I know is strong
I can’t win it on my own sudden cry
My heart is full of fire homie take a look inside
I ain’t got no other weapons on my side
But the truth so super I let praise to the sky
[Hook]
Let praise to our God, praise to our God
Be like arrows, straight to our enemies
Let praise to our God, praise to our God
Be like arrows, straight to our enemies
‘Cause this is war, this is war, and this is war
