Yo listen up, this is Captin C
And it's time for the resurrection rap so you'll be
Aware, alert, in tune, in touch and know
That Christ is the Son of God, word. Yeah, y'all dig it
I got the deffest, freshest tale to tell
On how Christ saved my soul from hell
We're stepping on the scene when y'all know
We're goin' back two thousand years ago
The disciples were on the set
Yo the posse was there in full effect
Jesus said, "The day will arrive
When the Son of Man will be crucified
But on the third I'll be alive, you'll see
And be back to full capacity."
The disciples just stood there shruggin'
An' thought, "Our home boy must be buggin'."
But when Christ talks you best be chill
He made the wind and the waves stand still
'Cause the Son of God don't pop no jive
If He said alive, He means alive
Word up, word up, it's fresh, it's fresh
Christ will rise from the dead
Word up, word up, it's fresh, it's fresh
Christ will rise up from the dead. Yeah
Now the Pharisees hated Christ, it's true
They says, "He's just not down with the crew
He talks of love, He's raisin' a fuss
He's leavin' our legalities crushed in the dust
He heals on Sunday and what's more
He casts out demons, this dude's hard core
He slams religion, He just won't chill
He's wipin' away the grin on my grill."
So they teamed and dreamed and schemed a solution
They plotted out their retribution
They got a plan they thought was sly
And they said, "This Christ has got to die."
Now Satan was behind the attack
'cause he wanted to be at the top of the stack
But he'd soon learn the truth we've found:
You just can't keep a, this good Man down. Yeah
Word up, word up, it's fresh, it's fresh
Christ will rise from the dead
Word up, word up, it's fresh, it's fresh
Christ will rise up from the dead
On a cross of wood they crucified
The Lord Jesus Christ. And after He died
They put Him in a tomb, gave it a seal
Devil said, "Yo, He's on tilt for real."
He felt so crush, he busted a pose
"I'm goin' back to my crib, this case is closed."
The disciples sat on the third day poutin'
The sun came over the eastern mountain
The earth started rumblin', stone rolled away
Great beams of light started to blaze
Devil freaked, he ran in fear
Demons said, "So long, we outta here."
Then heaven's choir sang this boast
"Who is the most from coast to coast?
Who's King of Kings and Lord Most High?
It's Jesus Christ and He is alive!"
Word up, word up, it's fresh, it's fresh
Christ has risen from the dead
Oh, word up, word up, it's fresh, it's fresh
Christ has risen, yeah, from the dead
