about

In a time where we never have seen so much division since the Jim Crow era, G-Nap is trying to answer so many questions with the only answer that will suffice ; Jesus Christ. There are so many great causes for justice and rights but if we would all unify under the blood stained banner, we would see that all of God's children and creation matter to Him more than it actually does to us. As a black man who is Christian, G-Nap leads you through a dark time without compromising who he is, all while mediating through music to urban culture,civil rights activists, and the Christian audience alike...

lyrics

Know Jesus Know Peace

Intro

They said revolution won't be televised/ we on the YouTube screaming God arise/ and let His enemies scatter/ cuz through Christ we know all souls matter let's go!

Verse 1

There's a nation that's seeking justice
A nation that's whooped in public
A nation that said enough is enough & they will not take it
A nation that may be breaking
nations within a nation
Divided by racial tension
This nation can't trust the system
A nation thats filled with questions
Like Can we trust these elections?
A nation moving to satan
The root of all this aggression
Admit it, some love the sinning
The root of all this oppression
& Now we see the fruit
And admit it, it's so depressive
These battles were way before us
And now they fall on our children
We can't expect change when God is kicked out the building
The mission is mediating
My motive be intercession
I'm praying you find the answer
Cuz I can't answer your questions
But!!!, I know the answer
No riddle, no 2nd guessing
This Jesus that we confessing
Been Bringing hope through His message
I get it, you feel like His sons
Need to be manifested
Romans 8 said you were waiting
With an earnest expectation yet...

Hook

They screaming no justice, no peace/
We screaming Know Jesus, Know peace!
Oh Lord hear the cries of our nation
And may we truly be one nation that is under God/


Verse 2 (1:15) (tackles divided churches)

There's a church; that knows its purpose
A church; that's out here working
A church; that has been birthed
In the spirit of true worship
This Church; inside of us
It Is daily being PERFECTED
The fake; they can't relate
So they try to kill off
The Message/
We call em Laodiceans
Confused,the lukewarm
The blind,who led the blind
Now we crying for reform/
the church; is so torn
the church; is so scorned
The Tares amongst the wheat
Do you see what's going on?
We're fighting off persecution
But persecutions at home
Your hating my Gospel rhymes
As if David sang all your songs/
We tell em, to be reborn
Then tell em to be boring
Oh they don't like ya bait?
Let's condemn em
Tell em what they not
These battles were way before us
Now they fall on our children
You can't expect revival when God
Is boxed in a building/
So yeah I get it
You feel like His sons need to be manifested
Romans 8 said you been waiting with an earnest expectation yet!

Hook

Verse 3 (2:17)

Some scream ; save the trees
They scream; save the whales
Don't let; the glaciers unfreeze
I say ;save me from Hell/
Cuz we ;can save the babies
If we; save ourselves
Equipped ;with Gods truth
Cuz it's; our only help/
If we; turned to God
Creation would do well
But we ; concerned bout money, not souls; yup ourselves
We're living ; to live again
But we're fighting the wrong war
If we ;would fight Gods
Then He; would fight ours!!!
The church; played a part
In giving us civil laws
We didn't; fight with the rocks
Nope; we fought with love
Just look at Dr. Martin
His faith ;was in the cross
The enemy's not the law
The enemy's our hearts!!/
They only can take prayer
If we; do not pray
They only can close the church,
If we; do not stay/
This nation was under God
But it, went astray
Cuz we forgot the gel
So tell me who's to blame!
We all said crucify Him
The Lord was bruised and nailed
Didn't mumble or yell
Wasn't stuck on Himself/
Angels was on call,but He didn't call for help
The wrath of God hit him, man
Can you picture him swelled
Can you picture the piercing
The whippings,
The wrath of Hell
His mind was on us
Yup,wasn't on what He felt
I know it gets hard
And the world is getting colder
But the Word told us all
Til the governments on His shoulders
To endure!!!
And fight the right war...
