Put On
Flame Lyrics

Feelin' like a million, I don't even need them dollars
I feel rich in spirit and don't need material wealth

Lookin' brand new, I ain't even been shoppin'
My renewed spirit makes me feel like a new person without needing material possessions

The price of what I got no couldn't fit up in your pocket
The value of my spiritual renewal cannot be measured in material ways

Takin' off the old self, Christ what we rockin'
I am shedding my old ways and embracing Christ in my life

Takin' off the old, puttin' on the new This is what it does, this is what it do
I am embracing a new way of life and this is how it affects me and my actions

See, a lotta girls want change so they go to the salon
Many people seek superficial changes in their lives

Lotta dudes want change so they go to the Qur'an
Others seek spiritual guidance from different sources

But I can see the end ‘cause I've been where you begun
I have experienced the same struggles and can see the consequences of seeking fulfillment in the wrong places

Where you're so in love with fun sippin' Don Perrion
Where people are so focused on temporary pleasure and indulgence

But you can't see the Son, talkin' S-O-N
You are blinded to Jesus and his teachings

‘Cause you're blind to the Son of Man, dyin' in your sin
You are unaware of the importance of Jesus' sacrifice for your sins

You might simply deny because of Bentleys you ride But you're empty inside like they just broke in
You may deny the importance of spiritual fulfillment in favor of material wealth and possessions, but this will leave you feeling empty and unfulfilled

That's why you spend a lot of money tryna shop until you drop If you're out there lookin' hot, that'll make up for what you not
You seek fulfillment through material possessions and physical appearance to make up for what you lack spiritually

But you can't compare your clothes to Jesus' wardrobe Talkin' righteousness robes, man your outfit is snot
You cannot compare your superficial appearance to the righteousness of Jesus

But Jesus bled homie, I hope you feel this Real nails got banged in that holy wrist Real hammers got banged in the spike nail By his stripes we are healed, tell ‘em how I feel
Jesus suffered for our sins and his sacrifice is the only way to spiritual healing

I am not my own, lil homie, I been further convinced of that My life should make music to God, where is my instrument?
I realize that I belong to God and my life should reflect this through my actions and praise

Oh yeah, I guess I'm usin' it right now My life is loud, they say I need to pipe down
I am using my voice and actions to praise God, even if others disagree

I used to think that I was runnin' the show Jesus traced my steps back like runnin' in snow It looks familiar like ya done it befo'
I used to believe I had control over my life, but now realize that Jesus has been guiding me all along

I know, we all think that we are God on the throne ‘Cause we got some new kicks and they ain't got ‘em at home Or ‘cause you got a new chick that you got in the zone Or ‘cause you got a new whip, got you ridin' on chrome
We often believe we are in control due to material possessions or achievements

Or I'll tell you what it is, I'll tell you what it really mean That God's wrath's on your head like the guillotine You're flyin' high like the bird from the Philly team You need to get tight with Christ like them skinny jeans
If you are not living a spiritually fulfilling life, you are subject to God's wrath and should turn towards Christ for salvation

See it's this little thing called faith that God places in our hands Then we take it and embrace it, then it makes us a new man
Faith in God can transform us and make us into a new person

Matter fact, a new creation ‘cause the old has passed away Now the new has been embraced and now we take the narrow way
Through faith in God, we become a new creation and follow the path of righteousness

If you hidin' from the Christ, do this for the first time But if you're already God's do it time after time And then time after time and then time and time again Be puttin' on righteousness and puttin' off your sin
If you have not yet found Christ, seek him out. If you have, continue to embrace him and strive towards righteousness

Let the thief no longer steal but rather get a job Share with anyone in need as you're workin' unto God Let the liar tell the truth, let the gossip all cease We are members of one another so incorrupt speech
We should strive towards righteousness in all aspects of our lives and work towards helping others

We do not wanna grieve the Holy Spirit of our God Who has sealed us till the day of redemption, now listen ya'll Grace for the task is what we've been given Goin' hard after God, that's how you live when you're forgiven
We should strive to live in a way that pleases God and embrace the grace and redemption he offers
