letra de cornerstone - rik montero

[chorus: v. rose & rik montero]
you wonder why we preach it, yeah
will you listen to reason? yeah
i’ll tell you what i found, it’s cold out on the ground
that life will let you down
a castle in the sand will fall
man, it don’t stand a chance at all (woah)
there’s hope in jesus now, you don’t gotta drown (for my dawgs)
that life will let you down (uh)

[verse 1: rik montero]
i see them young boys on the corner trash so many hours
days and night devour, tryna get they cash and power
practicin’ crooked schemes with dreams which require wealth
too many teens turn to fiends, wrap they arms with belts
seen so many of my lovers lose they mental health
so i havе to be an advocate and speak
ambassador of your kingdom, еvangelize to these streets
open eyes with the wisdom that you provided in me
raise a nation of christians and teachin’ ’em how to be free
from a culture that’s so self-destructive
that fast lane, you want it all, but you work for nothin’
you hustlin’, buildin’ a tower on soil so you won’t storm or destroy it
let me teach you how to build on his rock, boy
the earth can shake or tremble, this will never drop, boy
’cause christ jesus himself is the cornerstone
the foundation solid bulldozers couldn’t demolish
[chorus: v. rose]
you wonder why we preach it, yeah
will you listen to reason? yeah
i’ll tell you what i found, it’s cold out on the ground
that life will let you down
a castle in the sand will fall
man, it don’t stand a chance at all
there’s hope in jesus now, you don’t gotta drown
that life will let you down

[verse 2: mission]
look
daddy never came ’round (yeah), young gun told to hammer (pop)
e’erybody ’round these parts end up dead or in the slammer
momma boy friend had hit him, he was young gun wit’ the cappin’
many steps they goin’ forward, that’s as much they goin’ backwards
they have no respect for the authority
they ain’t never showed no love to us minorities
man, they gon’ slide for gang name
young guns reckless, who gon’ tame them?
his cousin got popped, he want the opps, but can you blame him?
lord come save us ’cause the devil tryna take us
gainin’ respect for the preacher ’cause he showed us a different way
lord, we really tryna change, i just pray you got some patience
you don’t send your son to get us, we won’t make it
i lost respect for the streets, they left nipsey on the pavement
say the lord never leavin’ nor forsakin’ (never)
lord, we really tryna change, i just pray you got some patience
you don’t send your son to get us, we won’t make it
mission
[chorus: v. rose]
you wonder why we preach it, yeah
will you listen to reason? yeah
i’ll tell you what i found, it’s cold out on the ground
that life will let you down
a castle in the sand will fall
man, it don’t stand a chance at all
there’s hope in jesus now, you don’t gotta drown
that life will let you down

[outro: v. rose]
that life will let you down
ooh, yeah
oh, jesus is enough
