Verse 1:
Oh yeah they talk a lot, they say they that they walk it out, they say they this/They making chips, their cake's legit, don't baller block or call the cops/They think they something, better not say they ain't or that they fake or fronting/Otherwise their duns wills ride with guns inside their range or something/That's what all they songs about, they long for wrong they all about/How they the stuff and they discuss how they all go that baller route/But me I take that smaller route, them ballers I'm gon' call them out/And say to dudes the King is true, so that's what I'm gon' talk about/Look I ain't got no cocky flows bout dollars copped when rocking shows/Or girls that pop and drop it low, or glocks that I'm gon' lock and load/It's not for show or lots of dough, I do this for His name/To get it out, not to get mine exposed, don't do this for the fame/No time to flow bout shiny clothes, or shoes, or golden chains/My mind is sold to the God who rose, His truth is on my brain/So while the average cats is backwards spitting battle raps/Wrapped up in their habitat of blasting cats, I'm rapping 'bout the Master's acts/Most cats just can't fathom that, that I don't the spotlight/It's not right, I'm not tight, I rep Him when I rock mics/So don't be looking at me, you see me just look on past me/I'm nothing special, just a vessel, service makes me happy

Hook:
Hey if you looking for a Superstar/I ain't the one you searching for, I came to bring some worship, bro/He's perfect I'm just dirt below/Hey if you looking for a Superstar/Don't look at me, you got me wrong, I been a sinner all along/Let's look at Him and not the songs (Repeat)

Verse 2:
Hey what you looking at homie? Get your eyes up off of me/The credit bro it's not for me, but the one who took the cross for me/He's holy, I ain't choose Him, He chose me, oh no He sought for me/Bought me, got me clean homeboy, get it right/What you looking at sister? I ain't nothing but dust bro/Who must go and rep His name, He gave me grace to trust so/I'm nothing more than anybody else, they in the front row/They think I'm special? I ain't much though no, get it right/Hey what you looking at homie? Nah I don't mind the autographs/And pictures but I ain't all for that, I'm preaching Christ and falling back/My mission is to lift up the risen who put the cross on back/I'm spitting to help them follow that vision, get it right/Hey what you looking at sister? Forget about my name and stuff/I ain't no entertainer, but hope this is entertaining just/So cats can hear His name discussed and trust the God I came to trust/His grace is enough for saving us baby, get it right

Hook

Bridge:
Get your eyes off me, I'm just dust from the ground/Put your eyes on Him, Christ the Son with the crown/I ain't no superstar, I ain't no superstar/So get your eyes off me, get your eyes off me

Wow that dude is sick. Prasie God. You know you listen to that and you listen to trip lee's new song, it just prooves that these cats reppen for Christ are light years ahead of this secular stuff out now. I mean everyone says lil wayne is the best rapper out there. I copped his last album and it was dope. But he isnt talken about nothen man. And on top of that his flow is nice but it isnt nicer then this Dwayne cat or Trip Lee. And then on top of that Dwayne and Trip are using there talent to praise and uplift the Most High. Can wayne say the same ? I'm not going to judge but the answer seems pretty obvious in my mind.

This is song is great by Trip Lee. It's really refreshing. The concept is about growing on the christian walk and not letting your faith become dead. I have never heard Trip rappen about being saved only and just by faith. Godbless Trip ! Come holla at phatmass ! You and Sammy Blaze on a track would be crazy.

The only prob that I have with many christian rappers is when they talk about the rapture.

Ya for sure the minute I start hearing a christian rapper rap about the rapturer that would be enough for me. Some of them are also over self rigtheous and I dont like that either.

Trip-Lee is the only guy I'm really listening to now. He's solid and you can tell he's being moved by the Holy Spirirt big time. I also like Lacrae and I think he's pretty solid to. One of the only things I've heard him rap that sorta made me cringe was his absolute assurance in going to heaven.

Cross movement i'm a little sketchy of and they have taken a few shots I think at the catholic church indirectily (or mabey even directly ? ) I know one of their members was even posting here for a short time way back. I do love their music though and their love for the Lord pours through their songs. Thats for sure.

Dude, a great idea for a live performance for this song would be to get one of those shadow screens, where you stand behind it so only your shadow is on the screen, then, put a crucifix in front of the screen.

So, the audience would see a crucifix, withTtrip Lee's shadow rapping behind it, projected onto the screen.
