lyrics

Uh-huh, Uncut Diamondz ya'll, uh-huh

Y'know we gotta be humble to lift Christ up, ya'll

Yeah

Y'know pride comes before the fall

We gonn' do it like this ya'll


Chorus:


We get down to lift Christ up x3

We get down, we get down

x2


Verse 1:

Yeah some folks may not get it why we wanna be meek and humble
But those people don't remember that pride comes before you stumble

Getting down at our shows means being humble before the lord
Before or after the show we be praising God fo sho

I write for him all my tight raps for God
And my hearts all up in it I ain't never gonna stop

It ain't a game it's called life, ain't lame it's bout Christ
It ain't the same but still tight and now the flames gonn' ignite

Hip hopping steady bobbin' now keep them heads nodding

No stopping keep jogging and just keep them fists rocking

Cuz I know I can't be too cocky gotta keep my head bowed
And these beats I'll be rockin' for him as long as God allows

And I'd like to give a shoutout to my folks who helped me out
And to all the peeps in heaven who are praying for me now

To help me spread his love and message to all y'all around
Now tell me, are y'all ready to get down?

(Chorus)


Get down, we get down, we get down, ohh!

Verse 2:


Makes waves in the water so the ripples return
Stir sparks in the fire so the world will burn

Spitting from my heart so your souls'll yearn
Flowing is an art, in which we all can learn

Start an avalance y'all and dance to get it rolling
But let the Holy spirit be the one who gets you going

I get down so I can lift, lift up Christ
I get drowned in his mercy to be rid of the strife

I get writers block and brothers be like what again?
Guess it's time to storm heavens gates for intercessions

I openly admit it, I'm afraid to dance
Like why would I wanna go and take that chance?

But the lord asked me to do it so Ima sing and prance
Bust a move who cares if I can't

I do it for the one who was pierced by a lance
The One who holds our lives in the palms of his hands

Get down like David dancing
We taking chances at our shows

Getting down for the Lord.
Getting down for the Lord!

(Chorus)

Verse 3:

Yeah, my heart is in my flow
And I start when I go
And the best part is being humble, humble for the lord

See how can I let God in if I'm too much into pride
So I gotta be humble so he can help me survive
And help me fly into eternal paradise

That's right cuz I try to write rhymes with Christ as my guide

See, I'm working for the boss ain't gonn brag about myself
Cuz I only boast of the cross, ya'll and no one else

We must decrease so that Christ may increase
Ima rep my savior right now til I'm deceased

And not gonna cease without prayer Ima pray without cease
Cuz by praying is the only true way to real true peace

We get down to lift Christ higher
To be humble like him is my hearts desire
So come Holy Spirit set our hearts on fire
And spread the Gospel spread his empire

To spread his love and message to all y'all around
Now tell me y'all ready to get down


(Chorus)
