lyrics

One life, one step, that’s right, it’s all you get
Eternal life, have you got it yet? Yes, then don’t fret
No, then give it a try and you won’t regret it
First day right away I was changed and won’t forget it
Possibly the hottest commodity, yet few get it
You don’t get it? don’t sweat it, let the words get embedded
He paid for you, so in truth your indebted
But at the same time, He came through and said “forget it”
Your sins have been forgiven if you just believe the message
“He is the truth and the light” and I’m just the guy to spread it
Ever since I met the Lord my path’s been redirected
To shine a light to those in need, or more like just reflect it
I’ll give you my story cuz it’s tried, true and tested
When tempted to mess with satan, development’s arrested
I guess this testament’s just the tip of the iceberg
But now you can’t say you’ve never heard the good word

One love, for every kind of human race
One way, by faith, through God's grace
One God, who loved you so much
That he gave His life for your life, it's so simple (that)

I'm just one MC, one mic, and no hesitation
To rock a few statements about true elevation
Too many heads are just running through the paces
And not too many know how amazing God's grace is
I'll rock a show in any venue, any basement
And wear my heart on my sleeve like it's the latest fashion statement
Because somethings gotta be said, I've been patient
I'm still steadily prayin, that what I'm sayin
Finds it's way to their heart and by days end
They'll too conclude their last conversation with an Amen
Understand he's the cure to the mayhem
The God who gave them life when he made them
I want to reach the lost souls, and awake them
Cuz I've been down, caught up in sin, mistaken
Thought that a God so awesome wouldn't have me back
But it's been racing through my mind, so I brought it to the track

We let it get to the point where hip hop is wack
And now we have to ask the DJ's to bring it back
And I'm sorry if I get a bit passionate
But I seriously hate the place rap is in
I'm quite adamat, we need more advocats
So a advocate, for more positive rap for kids
Acts in the biz, that give an example of how to live
Living every day like it's a gift, come on
I got this one chance, on this one song
To tell you some about 66 books in 3 verses, 3 hooks
Give me one chance, and take one look
Cuz the one Jesus Christ died once, that's all it took
He rose one time so now he's part of every rhyme
I make, when I break it down one time for your mind
Revolutionary, and yet, so simplistic
To show you how I like to kick it - it's so simple

about

Jonek Edmonton, Alberta

Jonek is an oldschool rapper.
He has been around for a looong time, but for some reason he's still kickin' it. He's more interested in being your friend than you loving his music, so come on over. I make a... ahem, I mean, he makes a great Chai Latte.

Peace.
