He first got into music as a teenager, listening to contemporary Christian music and becoming a talented drummer. He said, "I had no interest in rap music. As a matter of fact, I was disenchanted with the whole idea of rap." However, Da' T.R.U.T.H. soon discovered his gift of free-styling, co-founded the group NIV, and gained his new nickname at the age of 19 to minister "da truth" to the urban culture. Da' T.R.U.T.H. is a graduate of Philadelphia Biblical University and the Institute of Jewish Studies.
You Made
Da' T.R.U.T.H. Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You made it all, and the world that you made fell apart
And the people cried out, "Lord, how long"
Then you sent the redeemer to come along and restore what was lost
You made
[Verse 1]
You provided all the answers to my questions
Was it through a natural selection?
No sir, it was The Master's selection
He did it at his discretion
According to his own will like the Fresh Prince
Decided who he put breath in
Where life starts, where death ends
Yeah now that’s quite impressive
I know that you intended for us all to be best friends
But that was till death of sin
Came into the world and put us all in a deficit
Which led to my next question
Is there any- is there any hope in this depression?
You said the answer is yes
And then you sent the kinsmen redeemer to step in
[Chorus]
You made it all, and the world that you made fell apart
And the people cried out, "Lord, how long"
Then you sent the redeemer to come along and restore what was lost
You made it all, and the world that you made fell apart
And the people cried out, "Lord, how long"
Then you sent the redeemer to come along and restore what was lost
You made
[Verse 2]
Uh, then you came to the rescue
Like Hillsong, and that’s the best news
You took real long but that was a chest move
You wasn’t tryin' to stall like restrooms
Know you're wiser than us all
We're reminded that your sovereign, it was all on schedule
Yeah, you brought light into the dark
When you died on the cross, but that was just a flesh wound
'Cause death couldn’t hold you
So you rose up with all power in your right hand
You left gifts for the whole crew
And you overloaded us with power that we might stand
Yeah that was your precise plan
Made us shine bright like lights on a night stand
And for the rest of our lifespan
You'll restore us back to the image of Christ, yeah
[Chorus]
You made it all, and the world that you made fell apart
And the people cried out, "Lord, how long"
Then you sent the redeemer to come along and restore what was lost
You made it all, and the world that you made fell apart
And the people cried out, "Lord, how long"
Then you sent the redeemer to come along and restore what was lost
You made
The song "You Made" by Da' T.R.U.T.H. is a tribute to God as the creator of the world and the redeemer of humanity. The chorus acknowledges that God created everything, but the world fell apart due to sin, leading people to cry out for help. In response, God sent the redeemer, who restores what was lost. The verses expand on this theme, with the first verse acknowledging that God provided all the answers and chose to create humanity for a purpose. However, sin led to a deficit that only the kinsmen redeemer could fix. The second verse attributes God's rescue to His sovereignty and wisdom, noting that even death couldn't hold the redeemer. As a result, humanity is empowered to shine like lights and be restored to the image of Christ.
