Текст песни: Ain't Ready + перевод

Uhh! They don’t wanna battle

They ain’t ready for the battle, uh-uh, uh-uh (Temple of Hip-Hop)

Listen, listen, listen

Your spirit AIN’T READY

Your church AIN’T READY

Your bishop AIN’T READY

Your deacons AIN’T READY

Your choir AIN’T READY

Your ushers AIN’T READY

At the Temple of Hip-Hop

WE TEACH MANY!

Look! To all my people hurtin, all my people searchin

What we know for sure, God is always workin

Workin while you flirtin, workin while you jerkin

Workin while the world is turnin and these cities burnin

God is always workin, workin while you learnin

Workin while you ignorant and when you’re not concernin

Christ consciousness, get that, got that

Spit that, rock that, hip that, hop that

You sniff that? Stop that, I give back and got back

Greedy? I’m not that, you needy for that shock rap

Slangin on the block rap, duckin where the cops at

I don’t know that, but Jesus done copped that

Not that man on the cross, it ain’t like that

You must act like the son of God, that’s where the lights at

Stop readin only and start bein show me

Like the resurrection I’ll be back, they can’t hold me

One thing’s for sure and believe it hurt

It’s when the pastor ain’t sure, and deceives the church

They don’t know God’s law, and can’t see God at work

So when they see hip-hop, they push it to the back of the church

Like fig trees or figures they don’t bear fruit

They gospel artists, still tryin to chase that loot

Hear the truth now, I come to enhance the light

They women of God, singin while they pants is tight?

They not hot! Really they, regular

They clothes they flows, all that, secular

What’s the difference I could stay in the world and wild

If these church girls wear more makeup than Destiny’s Child

Keep it real Christian, some of y’all liftin ain’t likin

But this is the difference between a Christian and a Christ-ian

Stop readin only and start bein show me

Like the resurrection I’ll be back, they can’t hold me

. listen, listen, listen

Look! Spiritual minded, you must find it

Find your spirit and go deep inside it

This goes out to the Christians listenin

This is the flow that, gospel’s missin it’s

Urban inspirational rap

We got our own section in the record stores, in our own rack

We respect tradition from the start

But we now know the true word of God is written in our heart

We gotta say something to the streets kid!

All these churches surrounding the Devil still ain’t defeat it?

They the type to get down, I’m the type to get up

From «Criminal» to «Spiritual Minded», now raise your head up

Let me start, these rappers ain’t got God in they heart

All they want is quick money and a movie part

Let me begin, what, where, why or when

What’s the use of double platinum if you’re living in sin

Hear the truth, how long you think you gonna last

Rockin the mic, without having to go back to class?

Now you’re forced, to listen to the teacher out rap them

Yes there’s life after platinum
