“I GOTTA QUESTION”

VERSE 1

Q: WHY DOESN’T GOD KILL THE DEVIL AND END ALL SIN SO WE CAN HAVE A NEW BEGINNING ALL OVER AGAIN?

A: WELL, THE FALL OF SATAN IS WHERE SIN BEGAN, BUT UNDERSTAND THIS FALL WAS NEVER IN GOD’S PLAN

FROM SATAN TO US WE CAN CHOOSE WHAT WE FEEL CAUSE ONLY TRUE CAN RESULT FROM FREE WILL

Q: WHY CAN’T WE MAKE PEACE WITH ONE ANOTHER SO WE CAN STOP THESE WARS AND FIGHTING WITH EACH OTHER?

A: WELL PEACE CAN ONLY COME FROM HAVING ONE AGENDA AND CHANGE FROM THE EVIL DESIRES OF EVERY SINNER

BECAUSE OF SIN THERE HAS BEEN MORE WARS THAN ONE BUT IT IS WRITTEN THERE ARE STILL MORE WARS TO COME.

Q: WHY DOES GOD HAVE TO TAKE A LOVED ONE LIKE A FATHER HELPING HIS SON GROW BUT WASN’T DONE?

A: OUR ULTIMATE GOAL IS TO BE WITH THE FATHER BUT ATTATCHING OURSELVES TO THIS LIFE IT MAKES IT HARDER

DEATH CAN BE SAD BUT REMEMBER THROUGH JESUS CHRIST OUR LOVED ONES WILL LIVE TROUBLE-FREE IN ETERNAL LIFE?

Q: WHY DO PEOPLE COMMIT SUICIDE WHY DO PEOPLE THINK ABOUT THEIR HARD TIMES THINKING THE ONLY WAY TO CHANGE THEIR LIVES IS TO WANT TO DIE AND LEAVE THEIR FAMILY AND LOVED ONES WONDERING WHY?

A: THEY SEE IT AS A WAY OUT WHEN THEY LOSE HOPE AND SATAN ENCOURAGES IT SAYING THEY CAN’T COPE

BUT REALIZING THAT THIS IS A LIE IS WHAT IT TAKES AND ACCEPT CHRIST AND THEY’LL FIND THEY CAN LIVE BY FAITH.

Q: WHY DO PEOPLE DECIDE TO SNIFF DOPE AND HAVE WEED TO SMOKE THROW DICE ON THE CORNER AND SELL LOTS OF COKE?

A: SOME CAN’T QUIT IT OTHERS ARE JUST ADDICTED AND THOSE THAT SELL IT WORKS FOR THE DEVIL BUT WON’T ADMIT IT

DRUGS IS MANS EVIL PLAN JUST TO FILL A VOID BUT THROUGH CHRIST ANY ADDICTION CAN BE DESTROYED.

Q: WHY DO PEOPLE THAT SERVE GOD SO LONG STILL DO WRONG KNOWING THEY’RE WRONG AND HIDE THEIR NASTY LIVES IN THE CHURCH SONGS?

A: PEOPLE THAT ONLY PLAY CHURCH ARE NOT COMMITTED THEY’RE IN IT BUT THE TEACHINGS OF CHRIST THEY DON’T WANT TO LIVE IT

WITHOUT COMMITTING THEY’LL NEVER TAKE THEIR TRUE FORM FOR HE’D RATHER YOU BE COLD THAN JUST BE LUKEWARM.

CHORUS (VOCAL SCRATCH, “I GOTTA QUESTION”)

VERSE 2

Q: WHY IN LIFE ARE THERE SO MANY RELIGIONS, BUDDISTS, GREEK MYTHOLOGY, JUDISM, AND CHRISTIAN?

A: BEFORE CHRISTIANITY UP TO RIGHT NOW, MAN HAS MADE RELIGIONS TO FIT HIS LIFESTYLE

BUT CONSIDER ITS BASIS AND LOOK AT WHAT’S LEFT. WHO ELSE BUT CHRIST CAN SAY THAT THEY CONQUERED DEATH.

Q: WHY SINCE 9/11 PEOPLE WATCHING THEIR BACKS THINKING WHEN SOMETHING GOES WRONG IT’S A TERRORIST ATTACK?

A: FROM SLAVERY TO DICTATORSHIPS TO TERRORISTS MAN HAS CONTROLLED THROUGH FEAR BUT HERE’S WHERE THE ERROR IS.

JUST TO CONVINCE THEMSELVES THAT WHAT THEY DO IS COOL THE USE THEIR RELIGIONS TO VALIDATE JUST WHAT THEY DO.

Q: WHY DO SOME PEOPLE REJECT GHETTO CHILDREN AND THINK ALL THEY’RE WORTH IS KILLING AND ALL THAT STEALING?

A: PEOPLE THAT ACT IN THIS WAY ARE PREJUDICE, BUT JAMES CHAPTER 2 SHOWS WHAT HE SAID TO THIS.

DISCRIMINATION IS CAUSED BY AN EVIL MENTALITY, AND YOU COMMITT SIN WHEN YOU SHOW PARTIALITY.

Q: WHY DO FAMILIES BREAK UP WE ALL MAKE MISTAKES BUT IF WE TAKE UP WHAT OUR FAMILIES HAD AND JUST MAKE UP

A: A FAMILY THAT PRAYS TOGETHER STAYS TOGETHER. WHEN GOD’S IN A MARRIAGE THE FAMILY’S DAYS ARE BETTER, BUT WHEN TRIALS COME SOME PEOPLE TRY TO DODGE THEM BY USING PERMANENT FIXES FOR TEMPORARY PROBLEMS.

Q: WHY IS IT SO HARD TO FORGIVE SOMEONE EVEN IF IT WAS THE LITTLEST THINGS THEY’VE DONE?

A: AS GOD IN CHRIST FORGAVE US WE SHOULD FORGIVE WHEN ANOTHER REPENTS OF THEIR SINS FOR WHAT THEY DID.

REMEMBER THIS FOR ANYONE WHO EVER ASKS THIS, GOD EXPECTS FORGIVENESS FOR OTHER’S TRESPASSES.

Q: WHAT’S THE BEST WAY TO SEND MY PAINS AWAY, WHAT CAN I DO WHAT CAN I THINK, WHAT CAN I EVEN SAY?

A: PSALM 25: 17,18 SAYS IT BEST THAT PRAYER IS THE REMEDY FOR ANY DISTRESS, FOR HE’S ALSO A HEALER AND MORE THAN JUST A FRIEND. JUST MAKE YOUR REQUEST KNOWN TO GOD AND TRUST IN HIM.

CHORUS (VOCAL SCRATCH, “I GOTTA QUESTION”), ALL THE WAY OUT
