Jordan Copas - Unlikely Kids Lyrics

I'm calling the people to raise up and stand to fight for the kids
Who can't fight on their own united we stand divided we fall
United we stand divided we fall
These kids are not stupid they know how to brawl but to fight with the word they don't know at all
Let's get them early
You cannot just sit in the pew like an ear though it's part of the body you hands and the feet
Yeah you hands and the feet
You know about the tares we just want the wheat the enemy lurks he's full of deceit
Yeah he's full of deceit he's full of deceit
These people are dying out here in these streets they don't know the Lord we sitting at home
Why we sitting at home?
These kids don't have fathers they need the direction equip them for life for when they are grown
Yeah yeah equip them for when they are grown
We inviting the kids to the building to sit but then we complaining about their outfits
What is up with that?
What is up with that?
I'm not knocking the church but many not making it they don't want life if that means they faking it
You might not understand that one
Yeah teaching is cool we all need the word but the word it is living so we need the real
Yeah we need the real yeah give us the real
This faith is not easy the walk is tough the narrow you follow may just get you killed
Hey come follow me as I follow Christ this ain't easy
We are unlikely kids
We are unlikely kids
We are unlikely kids
I know you see we need help
We need help we need help
I know you see we need help
We need help we need help
We can't do it on our own
We are unlikely kids
We are unlikely kids
We are unlikely kids
I know you see we need help
We need help we need help
I know you see we need help
We need help we need help
We can't do it on our own
I was that no good kid
That street rat that failure
That down and out boy run the streets do what I want
But God still chose me
I see these kids
Going down a path they don't want to go
Some knuckle heads out in the streets kind of like myself
I'll let them know that they somebody
No not a nobody
Yeah you a somebody
No matter what people has said you are a somebody
No not a nobody
Yeah God is good and he made you right
No matter what you doing right now you are a somebody
Somebody going to get on your last nerves
You flip the switch and then fly the bird
But why you getting in trouble kid that's absurd
You got to keep your mind right get up in the word
I began my trip going down the wrong
At a really young age but this a new song
From a heart of hate but now I know I belong
Because the Lord met me when I was at my low
Tradition religion is not what it is
God he is love at that love he will show
You have a purpose down here young man
And you have a purpose down here young lady
Don't you know that he formed you in the womb
You are a miracle ain't that crazy
We are unlikely kids
We are unlikely kids
We are unlikely kids
I know you see we need help
We need help we need help
I know you see we need help
We need help we need help
We can't do it on our own
We are unlikely kids
We are unlikely kids
We are unlikely kids
I know you see we need help
We need help we need help
I know you see we need help
We need help we need help
We can't do it on our own
We are unlikely kids
We are unlikely kids
We are unlikely kids
I know you see we need help
I know you see we need help
We can't do it on our own
We are unlikely kids
We are unlikely kids
We are unlikely kids
I know you see we need help
I know you see we need help
We can't do it on our own
