After the Music Stops - Lecrae

what’s next?

Are we just writing songs or are we concerned with uniting a people

to follow the great commission of Christ.

Yeah let’s get it, let’s go…

Back in the day I was a lunch line rapper, after that I guess I was a punch

line rapper, then I got saved and sometime after, ya boy came back as a frontline rapper, and when I say the frontlines, that’s not a frontline,

I’m out here preachin’Christ on the frontlines, and no it ain’t

about rockin’stages ?coz some of my engagements are out on the pavements yeah.

I’m out to take the bible, create disciples, who make disciples,

disciple-cycles,

that’s why I want the beats to knock so after the music stops you can meet

the rock i pray, that you would know him well, this is like show and tell,

it’s more than a show, I’m showing you Emmanuel,

So yeah I’m hopin’that you’re likin’the flow but it’s only so you could

know that God I’m writing it for let’s go…

After the show, after the set, after the music stops what’s next?

Will there be fellowship, prayer, disciples, will you open your bibles after

the music stops.

After it’s over, after it ends, after the music stops, what then?

Will you understand that Christ is King?

Or will you just like the words

we sing after the music stops.

I recorded a couple songs some fast some slow, so the listeners would

know the importance of the show, the importance of the show’s not to excite

these folks but make God’s truth relevant, ignite these folks.

Discipleship is our call but we make disciples, this is not a suggestion,

create disciples.

The teachin’is a process, it’s not over night and

it’s not a stage and a mic nah, it’s life on life Christ —

Walked with twelve, ate with twelve, talked with twelve, shaped the twelve,

invested in 'em well you could say that he made the twelve.

Who made many more,

who made plenty more, now it’s on you and me if there’s anymore.

1 teach, 2 teach, 3 teach, 4 teach, 5 teach, 6 teach, 7 teach more,

this is what we’ve been commissioned, it’s the reason why I write,

so that you could hear the truth, not so you can say I’m tight whoa…

After the show, after the set, after the music stops what’s next?

Will there be fellowship, prayer, disciples, will you open your bibles

after the music stops.

After it’s over, after it ends, after the music stops, what then?

Will you understand that Christ is King?

Or will you just like the

words we sing after the music stops.

So, we write this for the right the speaker was righteous,

and then we might check for a culture who likes the hypeness.

Some say we keep it crunk, some say we hype man;

we just wanna pump

the resurrection of the Christ man.

We in the -burbs and the hoods that’s hostile, we share a common

view like synoptic Gospels and you know we keep a couple young dudes

around us and teach 'em the same truth God used to ground us.

This is a lifestyle so, when the mic’s down I pray people follow Christ

when they turn the lights down.

I pray that everybody playin’this song

will be challenged by everything I had to say in this song.

I don’t do this for the money, I don’t do this for fame, I don’t do this

so the industry can know my name, I do this and host to glorify

Yeshua the King, if you’re feelin’me you know you should be doin'

the same let’s go?

After the show, after the set, after the music stops what’s next?

Will there be fellowship, prayer, disciples, will you open your bibles

after the music stops.

After it’s over, after it ends, after the music stops, what then?

Will you understand that Christ is King?

Or will you just like the

words we sing after the music stops.
