"The Slam" lyrics
(feat. T-Bone)
[TobyMac:]
God's in the spot, you can like it or not
So rip the knob off the volume when you give it a shot
Raise your hands as the slam starts to thicken the plot
Openin' eyes to the lies of the enemies' lot
So run like the wind from the sin of your past
Keep your eyes on the prize when they put you on blast
It's the Christ on the cross, it's humanity's shot
It's a worldwide call to everything that we're not
This is the slam, this is the one
(God's in the spot you can like it or not)
This is the slam, this is the one
(We gonna bring it like it ain't been brung)
This is the slam, this is the one
We gonna do it like it ain't been done before
This is the slam this is the one
We gonna spring you like you ain't been sprung
They came from the cities and towns all around
To see the long-haired preacher from the desert get down
Waist-high in water, never short on words
He said, "Repent. The Kingdom of Heaven can be yours!" (What?)
But he stopped in the middle of his words and dropped (Words and dropped)
Down to his knees and said, "Behold the Lamb of God
He's the One, the Slam, don't you people understand?
You're starin' at the Son, God's reachin' out His hand."
This is the slam, this is the one
(God's in the spot you can like it or not)
This is the slam, this is the one
(We gonna bring it like it ain't been brung)
(We gonna bring it like it-)
This is the slam (Slam), this is the one (One)
We gonna do it like it ain't been done before
This is the slam (Slam), this is the one (One)
We gonna bring it like it ain't been brung
This is the slam (Slam), this is the one (One)
We gonna do it like it ain't been done before
This is the slam (Slam), this is the one (One)
We gonna spring you like you ain't been sprung
Boney brung...
[T-Bone:]
The Father slammed it like Shaq for Latinos and blacks
Packin' them straps
And Caucasians hooked on Ecstasy and the crack
Stacked the sins of this world to his body
And conquered evil and Hell
Then snatched the keys of death in one breath
And unlocked the cell
He rose on the third, I'm tellin' you partner, it's actual fact
Just like tobyMac and Boney Soprano up on this track
We slam dunkin' and keep it jumpin' like jumper cables
And keep the crowd rowdy like Jesus tossin' them temple tables
Slam, slam... slam
Slam... slam
Slam... slam
Slam
[TobyMac:]
This is the slam (This is the slam...)
This is the one (This is the one...)
[TobyMac {T-Bone}:]
This is the slam (This is the slam)
{We slammin' it, jammin' it, rammin' it, livin' it like it ain't never been done}
This is the one (This is the one)
{Gotta represent and tell the people 'bout all that He's done}
This is the slam, this is the one
{We slammin' it, jammin' it, rammin' it, livin' it like it ain't never been done}
This is the slam (Slam), this is the one (One)
{Gotta represent and tell the people, tell the people, tell the-}
This is the slam, this is the one
This is the slam, this is the one {Come on!}
This is the slam, this is the one
We gonna bring it like it ain't been brung (Brung, brung)
This is the slam, this is the one {What?}
This is the slam, this is the one {Yeah, yeah}
This is the slam, this is the one {[?], come on, y'all!}
We gonna bring it like it ain't been brung
God's in the spot, you can like it or not
So rip the knob off the volume when you give it a shot
Raise your hands as the slam starts to thicken the plot
Openin' eyes to the lies of the enemies' lot
So run like the wind from the sin of your past
Keep your eyes on the prize when they put you on blast
It's the Christ on the cross, it's humanity's shot
It's a worldwide call to everything that we're not

We gonna do it like it ain't been done before
This is the slam this is the one
We gonna spring you like you ain't been sprung
