I remember thirsting for God, wanting that sweet communion On and on my soul was longing for us to live this union Wanted nothing else in life except to just be with Him Felt like nothing in this world could ever compete with Him
But I'm in college now (college now), trying to walk this out (walk this out) But its harder now (harder now), can I talk to ya'll? (talk to ya'll) I got caught in this mess, yearning to walk in the flesh, And now I thirst for Him less, watching her walk in that dress
I saw the cross and how it took me from the worldly things And how He told me to cut loss the drunks and earthly things I know I wanna sin, but dawg I'm born again And by grace He displace my disgrace now it's on again
So I'mma buffet my body, make it my slave man Crucify my flesh daily 'til I see my grave man So I'mma fight, and your games i won't play them no more Tell the world listen that we're fed up, we ain't gonna take it no more
Chorus: We not gonna take it no more x8
Verse 2:
No more hang time or playin time Man its about to be game time Hate you sin, ya quench the spirit 'Done em them both at the same time
First you had to ride with us Now my flesh start to rising up This what 1st Corinthians was talking about all that dying stuff Sick of heart ache, sick of pain
Sick of you, I gotta quit this man But me and myself can do nothing without the Spirit man Eyes havn't seen ears havn't heard the things revealed By the Spirit dwelling within me through which I'm sealed
I no longer belong to you, I'm not holding onto you I fight with all this might through every night that I long for you I wrote this here song for you, my hatred is strong for you My love for God is greater than the lust that I own from you
Cause everything's wrong with you, the world wanna roll with you Instead of you enslaving me the Holy Spirit's controlling you And this here I know is true, the scriptures are showing you Since I belong to Christ I ain't gonna take this no more from you
Chorus: we not gonna take it no more x16
Yeah, you know what it is man, we free now. We were once slaves to sin, but now we free to live righteousness. We ain't a slave to sin no more man
We ain't no slave to sin We ain't no slave to sin We ain't goin take it no mo' Because we born again (X2)
