Re-Unite

The O.C. Supertones Re-Unite Lyrics
1.Unknown

Lyricist:Kenneth Jason Carson, Matthew Evan Morginsky, Anthony Henry
Terusa

Killin' ourselves faster than fast
Livin' in the future, livin' in the past
I haven't always been in Christ
I know what you're goin' through, man

A couple of years ago I was just like you
Lookin' for answers, but lookin' to myself
Thinkin' that Christians just love Jesus for their health

But I didn't know about Jesus
I didn't know about Jesus

I tried to be like God but when I tried I failed
And every time I fail and fail
I know I rail a nail straight into the cross of Jesus
Straight into the wrist of Jesus

And now it's 1996, a hard year to be a godly man
It seems the more I speak the word
The less they understand

You gotta know about Jesus
You gotta know about Jesus

I tried to be like God but when I tried I failed
And every time I fail and fail
I know I rail a nail straight into the cross of Jesus
Straight into the wrist of Jesus

And now it's 1996, a hard year to be a godly man
It seems the more I speak the word
The less they understand

But you gotta know about Jesus
You gotta know about Jesus

And now I know about Jesus
And now I know about Jesus


2.Unite

Lyricist:Kenneth Jason Carson, Matthew Evan Morginsky, Anthony Henry
Terusa

Bring it, live and undrugged six years and countin'
Believer in Christ, yes, yes, the blessed fountain
Apologetic warrior, chalk one up for the visitors
Casting fierce some light into the shadows of midnight

To the underground we descend
With our whole generation to defend
Gotta whole army on my case, got the devil in my face
'Cause that punk knows when's the end

Unite, ignite and spark a light to burn so bright
The sight will blind the blind of this our modern time

Oh yeah, I got a beef with the fence sitters
Tiers among the wheat, the cop-outs, the quitters
Cut from the branch fruitless, no good
Only one use and that's firewood

Pay no mind to the generation line
Forsake your sect and be color blind
The problem's not Hollywood, the problem's not Washington
The problem's a weak divided church of schismed Christians

Never going back to the darkness I was damned in
Now I turn my back on the place that I was found in
Flick a match on Babylon, burn baby burn
Raised my mind for all this time and now it's your turn

Got enough gasoline and plenty o' matches
Finally, I'm free and I shake off the ashes
From the city of refuse, I refuse to pay dues
To you, not me, and none of the free and the few


3.Who Can Be Against Me

Lyricist:Kenneth Jason Carson, Matthew Evan Morginsky, Anthony Henry
Terusa

It seems like everything I touch just falls to pieces
It seems like everyone I help just falls
And how I need someone to make me feel assured
I don't need anyone if you're on my side, Lord

And I say, hey, who can be against me?
I say, hey, who can be against me?
(No one)

No matter how hard I try I always fail, I'll never be like
Christ
I know I'll struggle until the day, the very day I die
And how I need someone to make me feel assured
I don't need anyone if you're on my side, Lord

And I say, hey, who can be against me?
I say, hey, who can be against me?
(No one)

God look at me, I'm just a man
But you tell me I'm not just a man
You're so hard to understand
After all I'm just a man

God you tell me not to doubt
But I'm always plagued by doubt
And you always help me out
I'm so ashamed

God look at me, I'm just a man
But you tell me I'm not just a man
You're so hard to understand
After all I'm just a man

God you tell me not to doubt
But I'm always plagued by doubt
And you always help me out
I'm so ashamed

And I say, hey, who can be against me?
And I say, hey, who can be against me?
And I say, hey, who can be against me?
And I say, hey, who can be against me?
(No one)


4.Away From You

Lyricist:Kenneth Jason Carson, Matthew Evan Morginsky, Anthony Henry
Terusa

Say, you got a minute friend?
Because I'd like to tell you something
You may think nothing of it
But wait you're gonna love it

What if I told you I held
The one true philosophy?
Would you hear me out
Or just turn your back
And laugh at me?

Lord, I just don't understand
This strange creature you call man
Who thinks he lives
By his own hand but I know

There's no life away from You

So I will remain still and silent
For fear of the words I may say
And am I still in my defiance
When I'm trying so hard to obey?


5.Adonai

Lyricist:Jason Carson, Matthew Evan Morginsky, Anthony Henry Terusa

Well, I'm ugly as sin, that is to say I'm not good lookin'
But I can bust some ska, in fact the rhythm rhyme is cookin'
Brighten up your soul and loosen up your brain
Make my heartbeat all fast like the girl from plain Jane

Now please allow me to proceed and bust my rude boy flow
On the underground scene at the underground show
Grownups, kids and in betweens I guess it takes all kinds
'Cause I guess we got true love, my blood, my blood true love is
blind

One purpose is to worship and to make the body strong
I don't care about your haircut, can't we all just get along?
Not just get along, but to really love and care
If your eyes are on the Lord you can't see nobody's hair

Adonai Adonai, yeah hey
Adonai Adonai, yeah hey

Well, I don't claim to be a rhymin' apparatus
I don't want to be a gangster, I don't want to be the baddest
I ain't no Al Pacino and I ain't no Al Capone
I'm just a rude boy with a new toy, add two speakers and a
microphone

So listen up, listen up and make sure that you can hear me
I'm your brother and I'm your friend so come on and get near me
I'm a sinner just like all of you don't make me into an idol
I'm a preacher, I'm a saint and sinner, guess I fit the titles

Gotta keep a humble heart, because my good is not enough
Jehovah Jireh gotta give the glory up up up
To Y'shua me salvitore, we gotta give you all the glory
God, I give you all my fears, God I give you all my years

You're my God and I will bow
I'll show all the proud people how
You're my God and I will bow
In fact I think I'll bow right now

Adonai Adonai, yeah hey
Adonai Adonai, yeah hey


6.Resolution

Lyricist:Kenneth Jason Carson, Matthew Evan Morginsky, Anthony Henry
Terusa

I've meant to do this for some time
Gotta get it right this time
This time my God I will be yours
All my heart, my soul and mind

Been so long since I truly smiled
But you touched my heart today
Reached through my mind of mud and mire
Consumed the idols in your way
So, I am brand new

Today, I make my resolution
Today, I make my resolution
Today, I make my
Today, I make my resolution
Today, I make my

Looking back the way I used to be

Been down so long that is seems like up
I took it now I've had enough
Of the life that I've been living
It feels so cold this far away

So, today I will make a change
I will make a change today
Purge my mind of mud and mire
Cast all my Gods away
So I I am brand new

Today, I make my resolution
Today, I make my resolution
Today, I make my
Today, I make my resolution
Today, I make my

Looking back the way I used to be
It was just me and God
Can I be there again?
Today I make my resolution

Today, I make my resolution
Today, I make my
Today, I make my resolution
Today, I make my
Today, I make my resolution


7.Little Man

Lyricist:Kenneth Jason Carson, Matthew Evan Morginsky, Anthony Henry
Terusa

Keep both my eyes transfixed on the prize
A high-rise to the blue skies, my piece of the pie
There's a hole in my heart that I know how to fill
That's to light my cigarettes with a hundred dollar bill

It's all about cash flow the California dream
To make the grade you gotta make the green
My friend, I'm the champion, I've no time for losers
Never ask for nothin 'cause beggars can't be choosers

Lookin' our for number one's a full time occupation
I'll give to me myself and I my own salvation
Some people try to tell me, God can save me from my sin
But God can take a number and I'll pencil him in

Busy oh, so busy I got no time to search
My Sunday's are all booked I've got no time for Church
That's for those poor souls, dry as a stone
God bless this child 'cause this child's got his own

Oh, let my pride fall down, I'm a little man
Oh, let my pride fall down, I'm a little man

He who gets the most toys and dies is the winner
I'm livin' the high life with lobster tail dinners
My Lexus, my yacht, my gold chains and rings
These are a few of my favorite things

But most of all I keep my billfold the closest to my heart
House decorated with million dollar works of art
Roll with the bigwigs they think I'm the man
But then I stop and look and think about how big I really am

Oh, let my pride fall down, I'm a little man
Oh, let my pride fall down, I'm a little man
Oh, let my pride fall down, I'm a little man
Oh, let my pride fall down, I'm a little man

Mammon is an unforgiving God, I cast Him away
I live my life to God, not to get paid
Money can't save your soul, don't think I can
I look to God and I feel like a little man

Oh, let my pride fall down, I'm a little man
Oh, let my pride fall down, I'm a little man
Oh, let my pride fall down, I'm a little man
Oh, let my pride fall down, I'm a little man


8.Grounded

Lyricist:Kenneth Jason Carson, Matthew Evan Morginsky, Anthony Henry
Terusa

I strike back like the empire and we'll televise the revolution
What will save you from divine retribution?
Do our part, try to make a contribution
Playin' at 11, givin' OC noise pollution

Think long and hard about our world today
What needs to be said, and what I need to say
We're a tower of Babel built on anti-philosophy
Neitzche in the west and Krishna in the east

War rages on through generations
All of these Christians abandoned their stations
A whole world around us, and we've ceased to reach
An army of soldiers, we've neglected to teach

But, it's dim and not pitch black, the truth will prevail
If our God is for us, how can we fail?
No surer hope has ever been rested
But for our adversary's worthy, prepare to be tested

Hoo haa! How will you stand if you don't understand?
Hoo haa! Fight like a man, scriptures in hand

And here we stand naked, barehanded futily prepared
For the blows to be landed
Presuppositions is all you can stand on
Can you twist their wrist when they lay a hand on?

Learn how to fight from words on a paper
Learn from the shoguns, Bahnsen and Schaeffer
Invincible army, holy spirit our general
Weapons are formed form most precious of minerals

Hoo haa! How will you stand if you don't understand?
Hoo haa! Fight like a man, scriptures in hand

Hoo haa! How will you stand if you don't understand?
Hoo haa! Fight like a man, scriptures in hand

Kids in universities, drowning in an ocean
Of apostate philosophy
We need apologetic instruction, mental reconstruction
Ignorance reduction, to halt the mass abduction

Evangelical mind has been scandalized
Wisdom and truth have been vandalized, by the unevangelized
No truth in a world that is randomized
Expose the lies no matter how they're disguised

Hoo haa! How will you stand if you don't understand?
Hoo haa! Fight like a man, scriptures in hand

Hoo haa! How will you stand if you don't understand?
Hoo haa! Fight like a man, scriptures in hand


9.What It Comes To

Lyricist:Toby Mckeehan, Matthew Evan Morginsky, Anthony Henry Terusa

Every now and then I have a moment of authentication
Reveals the man inside me like illumination
Trial by fire purification
The day I die is the day that it's done

You might not realize when it comes
And only overcome it by the grace of the son
Just try to stand your ground take it head on
Every moment in my life comes down to this one

At a fork in the road only two ways to go
The one untraveled and the one that you know
The broad and the wrong or the tight and the right
So die in the dim or fight in the light

So it comes down to this
Jesus Christ was betrayed by a kiss
Judas when he faced his moment he failed
Imprisoned in hell with a bail of three nails
This is what it comes to

It's me against my desires and inclinations
Pass through the fire into salvation
Bring water to the Thursday like irrigation
When you go toe to toe, you don't go, one on one

But Christ in my place in substitution
Showed me his grace propitiation
Heard the devil laugh and he thought he had won
But then came the comeback and resurrection

Listen everybody may I please have your attention
Only the wise will accept instruction
Fools laugh at knowledge and reject wisdom
Inevitably leading to destruction

Now it's on you it's your decision
The forecast of the future is confrontation
The beast or the king like revelation
A battle for your soul like Armageddon


10.O.C. Supertones

Lyricist:Kenneth Jason Carson, Matthew Evan Morginsky, Anthony Henry
Terusa

Where you from? Orange County
That's right, Orange County Supertones in the house full of
effect
Ready to bust some rhymes out
We're a dance band from the Southland
So come up front and dance while we sing

We ain't got no place to go
Let's go to the rudeboy show
I wanna hear them play it rude
Gonna pop some rudeboy attitude

You know I get up when I hear and then He found me
You know I'm safe and sound with my rudeboyz all around me
Well the Supertones are up, we gonna kick it to the burbs
And our purpose is to serve, in case you hadn't heard

Fater, Son, Spirit, hear it, near it, fear it
Father, Son and Holy Spirit
God's alive and He's here right now, here right now
He's in love with you
I hope that's clear right now, clear right now

That's just life down in Southern California
That's just life in Orange County, California
That's just life down in Southern California
That's just life in Orange County, California

Well, if you used to be a Christian then you never was
Just sittin' up in Church and sayin' what a Christian does
The world's got the gun, but the devils' got the trigger
Stand strong with faith, deeper than a T-shirt or a sticker

You probably ask yourself, 'How'd this Jew boy get so crazy?'
Came from kickin' mad knowledge, didn't come from being lazy
We got the rhythm and the rhythms got roots
I'm a crazy little Hebrew on stage wearin' monkey boots

I love to be onstage and sing and bimskalabimmin'
I love to be out in the croud a skankin' and a swimmin'
King David, my great grandfather, was a dancer
King Solomon, my great grandfather, a romancer

Jesus came from Jesse, but Jesse came from Jesus
Now come to Lord Jesus 'cause Lord Jesus frees us

That's just life down in Southern California
That's just life in Orange County, California
That's just life down in Southern California
That's just life in Orange County, California


11.Supertones Strike Back

Lyricist:Kenneth Jason Carson, Matthew Evan Morginsky, Anthony Henry
Terusa

Just like Leia's Father, you hit we hit back harder
Like Huss and Stephen, I am not afraid to be a Martyr
California sun and sky slip inside a suit and tie
Chevy rolls up to the house with everybody outside

Gonna get down like we did the day before
50 more people be waitin' at the door
Team against team, let's even the score
If there's 50 people outside, we got room for 50 more!

And we're movin' all smooth and when we get groovin'
we're fresh like salsa and we're fat like Juben
You're cranium's cracked from my Shaolin attack
Protect your neck, Supertones strike back!

We want this whole band to be a big love letter
So we play the SKA and it makes you feel better
God's got love for us, so we got love for you
It's your life, so what you wanna do?

So come on put a glide in your stride, and a dip in yo hip
Best back the heck up, cuz' hip-hop rolls from my lips
I spit when I rap, saliva flies when I sing
God gives me gifts, just look at my ring

Look less at me and look more to Christ
His grace has saved me and His grace will suffice us
So I jump for Jesus, it's Jesus who frees us
Let's get dumb like Beavis, I don't care who sees us

When we hop to hip-hop John Bell gets ill props
You know he can rock socks give out love from his soapbox
With hip-hop nonstop, hippidie, hippidie, hop
First I can rock them socks, then I can knock your block

You can't stop this, you can't clock this
You can't dis this, so please don't miss this
A van and a roadmap, keep my life in my bakcpack
Comin' through your town, Supertones strike back

We want this whole band to be a big love letter
So we play the SKA and it makes you feel better
God's got love for us, so we got love for you
It's your life, so what you wanna do?

We want this whole band to be a big love letter
So we play the SKA and it makes you feel better
God's got love for us, so we got love for you
It's your life, so what you wanna do?
