lyrics
Jerm Sully & No Knows:
Take the lead in our family,
Take the lead in our work,
Take the lead in our finance,
Take the lead in our church,
Take the lead in our family,
Take the lead in our work,
Take the lead in our finance,
Take the lead in our church,
((Watch me, watch me, watch me, watch me))
From front to back now - Real men, we don't back down, we lead...
Greg Colbert:
We take the lead (aye),
We take the lead (aye),
We take the lead (aye),
((Watch me, watch me, watch me, watch me))
From front to back now - Real men, we don't back down, we lead...
Jerm Sully:
First you get a home, then you make it livable,
Then get a career that pays all your bills and live off the residuals,
Learn to thrive as an individual, so when you find a wife you can support her,
Pass it on to your son and your daughter. The oil follows the order,
If you're out of order, it isn't too late to turn around a make an adjustment,
To be a great son, be a great brother, be a great father or husband,
We're breaking these family curses, ain't gonna sit and wait patiently,
Creating these family blessings, taking this 3 generations deep,
I'm a model man by my actions, cuz I'm always keeping God first,
I'm an expert at my work, I volunteer and serve at my church,
Plus I got a heart for this worship, and I'm steadily growing my faith,
Constantly seeking my purpose, and sold out to doing it God's way,
To live for the Lord is easy, don't believe me just watch,
Even when this life ain't all breezy, Imma still give Jesus His props,
I was born a slave to sin, but on the daily he’s making me free,
Not walking blindly, with satan behind me, you know where to find me, I'm taking the lead!
Greg Colbert:
We take the lead (aye),
We take the lead (aye),
We take the lead (aye)
((Watch me, watch me, watch me, watch me))
From front to back now - Real men, we don't back down, we lead...
We take the lead (aye),
We take the lead (aye),
We take the lead (aye)
((Watch me, watch me, watch me, watch me))
From front to back now - Real men, we don't back down, we lead...
No Knows:
The absence of sound…
Refusal or failure to speak out…
Oblivion or obscurity…
My therapy is to get loud ...but….
Not yellin’… deafening silence can be overwhelming,
There’s no success without; succession,
Gotta Drain yourself of your own opinions,
See in the beginning there’s order, then followed up by the oil,
Won't give dominion to disorder, nor a desperado to turmoil,
Seed in good soil, my roots run deep,
My faith turns fruit, multiplied in heaps,
Got good traction, never caught slippin’, Had to follow him, just to take the lead,
Don’t get ready, cuz I stay ready, my guard steady on the up & up,
The richness of preparation will always show you just what I love,
See I influence people’s passions - to achieve heavens purpose,
If my action ain’t matching kingdom - then I’m doing you a disservice,
My greatest fear isn’t failing - cuz I failed time & time, it ain’t nothing new,
My greatest fear is succeeding, in something God didn’t call me to do,
Celebrate another success, always even when you feel you’re getting passed,
This is an upside down kingdom... if you wanna be first then get in line last!
Jerm Sully & No Knows:
We taking the lead - ain’t no looking back,
We’re following him - ain’t no falling back,
I’m taking the lead - ain’t no looking back,
I’m following him - ain’t no falling back,
We taking the lead - ain’t no looking back,
We’re following him - ain’t no falling back,
I’m taking the lead - ain’t no looking back,
I’m following him - ain’t no falling back,
Greg Colbert:
We take the lead (aye),
We take the lead (aye),
We take the lead (aye)
((Watch me, watch me, watch me, watch me))
From front to back now - Real men, we don't back down, we lead...
We take the lead (aye),
We take the lead (aye),
We take the lead (aye)
((Watch me, watch me, watch me, watch me))
From front to back now - Real men, we don't back down, we lead...
