"Never Fade Me" is track 10 of James Julius' "Made New" Album.  Even under severe persecution we are called to stand firm in our faith and proclaim the name of Jesus.  "And all nations will hate you because you are my followers. But everyone who endures to the end will be saved" Matthew 10:22

Philippians 4:13 says, "I can do all things through Christ, who strengthens me."  So have no fear in the face of persecution and always remember that God is in your corner.  "What shall we say about such wonderful things as these? If God is for us, who can ever be against us?" Romans 8:31

Lyrics:

(Chorus)
When I preach the word,
They be lookin' at me like I'm crazy,
You can mock me if you want but you could never faze me,
Hate me, Hate me, But you couldn't never fade me,
I'mma keep it 100 'till I D-I-E,
Hate me, Hate me, But you couldn't never fade me,
Oh I know they hate me now,
They first hated J.C.,
Hate me, Hate me, But you couldn't never fade me,
I'mma preach the word of God until He comes and takes me.

(Verse 1)
I'm a brave,
I ain't even from the A,
It's time for me to shut it down,
And I'mma say it to their face,
Ya they talkin' real loud,
Tell me what them haters say,
'Cuz I been runnin' for awhile,
And I ain't stopped to take a break,
Okay,
Keep it real when it come to sharing faith,
What about they beat and mocked Him,
And they spit all in His face,
Ya, I guess that's how they do it,
When them people know you're great,
Never sinned in His life,
But He still caught a case,
That's crazy,
People be dissin',
On my sound 'cuz it's Christian,
Not knowin' the words that I'm spittin',
Comes from He Who Is Risen,
While I be playin' my position,
I know they plot in the dark,
So they can get me,
They wanna rip me,
Wanna tear me apart,
Perhaps explode,
Unload until them clips is empty,
They don't like me but they really hate the one has sent me,
So do what you gonna do,
No, I ain't concerned with none of you,
I already read Matthew 10 and 22.

(Chorus) Christian Rap

(Verse 2)
Their hearts are so calloused,
When they approach me with malice,
I spit the living word of God so it can further the palace,
They lookin' at me so foul,
Like I knocked over the towers,
I ain't no warhead homie,
Why you lookin' at me so sour?,
I try to kill 'em with kindness,
But their eyes are so blinded,
If salvation hit their face they wouldn't know where to find it,
Blessed are those who are hated and falsely accused,
For the faith,
When they run the race and then they stand in the truth,
They try to tempt us in public,
They try to get us surrounded,
Hopin' we'll fall short so they can make the public announcement,
But it's false and it's heresy and The Lord was preparing me,
You can put that make-up on,
I know the look of a pharisee,
I ain't mad,
I ain't late,
When I think of my fate,
Knowing that I'll be persecuted for Jesus' sake,
And when they got fifty choppers all cocked,
Ready to blaze me,
I'mma look 'em in the eyes and say, "you can't fade me".

(Bridge)
Hate me, Hate me,
But you could never fade me,
(Repeat)
Hater, Hater, You could never fade us
And we ain't gonna stop,
'Cuz we runnin' for the maker,
Savior, Savior,
Lord and the creator,
We runnin' for your glory,
They can love it or hate us.

Lyrics:

(Verse 1)
It's time to go,
And we ain't playin' no games,
We 'bout to have the revival 'till everybody is changed,
You see the block is starvin',
'Cuz they ain't really been eatin',
Call 'em Sealy Posturepedic 'cuz them Christians be sleepin',
But ain't no more lying dormant,
We straight pourin' The Lord into every single recording until we take over Portland,
Rapers and hookers who whorin',
Prisoners, Killers who mournin',
Who look in the mirror and hate what they see in the morning,
Tell that devil stop testin' me,
Go and walk in your destiny,
You to can be clean just like that leper with leprosy,
'Cuz through God you're a savage,
You straight ravage a habit,
Philippians 4:13 homie,
Just readin' a passage.

(Chorus)
If you unashamed and you call Jesus your friend,
Ain't no time to waste,
'Cuz it's time to get it in,
I get it in, HEY (x4)
(x2)

(Verse 2)
It's the mission of the one who was risen,
The great commission,
All my soldiers need to stand at attention,
(I get it in)
It's the mission of the one that was risen,
The great commission,
All His soldiers need to stand at attention,
(I get it in)
The enemy, gettin' me, sendin' me plenty heat,
Tellin' me death is the penalty,
Assassins mashin',
And comin' in fast and comin' to try to get rid of me,
But I dust 'em off,
Keep my cool,
Tell The Lord that they my footstool,
Glory hallelu' to the King Of The Jews who's comin back for His chosen few,
Now I'm scoping you and I'm focused to,
With the word of God I'm approaching you like I'm supposed to do,
Lord let my body be the vessel that your words are spoken through,
When I'm spoken to,
I proclaim your name,
Tell 'em all about Jesus Christ the king,
Without no shame,
Tell it to the brothers on the block they should not be servin' that cane.

(Chorus) Christian Rap

(Verse 3)
Lord He is,
Glorious,
Can't lose a fight 'Cuz He's victorious,
Read Matthew, Luke, & John if you wanna know what His whole story is,
Let Him free your mind like Morpheus,
King of more than scorpions,
From start He separated light from dark,
That's what we call the morning kid,
No Dwayne Johnson,
We call Him "The Rock",
Walking tall He's calling the shots,
Biggest boss so far,
Rick Ross He's not,
Purchased on the cross from the blood,
We bought.

"Yaa homie, we give it up to the one who's worthy of all praise,
How could we not get it in for him?"

(Bridge/Outro)
What you waitin' for?
Ain't no time to be wastin',
It's time to get in,
Make disciples of nations,
(X4)

Portland, OR

"It Won't Be Rushed" is the fourth single to be released from artist James Julius of Never Fade Records.  This song confronts the issues of premarital sex and relationship abuse.  We hope that this song will help reveal the true meaning of Love, defined by God's Word, and help people of all ages apply it to their lives.  Jesus IS Love! God Bless!

Lyrics:

(Intro)
It Won't Be Rushed, no (x2)

(Hook 1) Kristi Elizabeth
Is it Love if you hate how it makes you feel?
Doubting all the time, "Is it real?"
Should You place your trust in what is dangerous?
True Love, It won't be rushed, no.

(Verse 1) James Julius
Aww, there she go again,
Goin' through yo' phone again,
Now ya right back out that door again,
Left out in the cold again,
It's all good,
You'll be back later,
Tell her ya love her,
Now ya hate her,
At night when you fight wake up the neighbor,
Disgusted now but then you'll crave her,
But then you'll make up,
And after that,
Ya'll break up,
Every time ya'll get together,
Man, It's just the same stuff,
When you lie to yourself,
Sayin' God designed it Himself,
But every time that you wit' her,
He sittin' high on the shelf,
This aint no blessin' me brotha,
Ya only stressin' each other,
The only time you are at peace is when your sexin' each other,
You must be outta ya mind,
You gotta be outta ya stars,
Tradin' each others hearts like they sets of baseball cards,
It'll only come back to sting ya,
Without a ring on ya finga',
And ya, It might feel good,
But the damage is worse than Katrina,
God aint appeased with the lust,
The way they squeeze and they touch,
And He has something greater waitin' homie,
Please Don't Rush.

(Hook 2) Kristi Elizabeth
Is it Love if you hate how it makes you feel?
Doubting all the time, "Is it real?"
Should You place your trust in what is dangerous?
True Love, It won't be rushed,
God's Love is the only type that never fades, (Never Fades)
It's what we need,
Need to remain in relationship,
That won't ever slip,
One strong enough to cast out fear.

(Verse 2) James Julius
Lil' mama ya young,
He tells you that you the one,
And ya'll talk on the phone from dusk until the rise of the sun,
Kissin' through the phone like Soulja Boy,
But you barely know the boy,
You never felt like this before,
You'll never love another boy,
Ya mama don't like him,
Your girls tell you to leave him,
Your brother says that he's a dog,
But still, you won't believe 'em,
And every time ya'll together,
His hands be touchin' whatever,
You tell him, "No",
But he insists on applying the pressure,
This is as bad as it gets,
Ya'll havin' unsafe sex,
And what really makes it bad,
It's out of God's context,
You gave your heart and allegiance,
To someone who will mistreat it,
Paid the attention to a boy you shoulda been payin' to JESUS,
Now ya' belly is big,
He hollerin' that it aint his,
Ya'll said, "together forever",
Who thought it would be so quick,
I know you say your in love,
You say he's one you can trust,
But Love will not blitz baby, naww,
Love will not rush.

(Hook 2) Christian Rap

(Bridge) Kristi Elizabeth
It brings you hope,
And brings you joy,
Feeling peace,
Fulfilling rest again,
Breaks down all the walls inside,
Sets you free,
Brings your heart alive.

(Verse 3) James Julius
Love is so faithful,
And shorty, Love is so kind,
Love aint about gettin' naked,
At the drop of a dime,
Love is not selfish,
Matter fact, Love is so selfless,
Love will reach out it's hand,
And give help to the helpless,
Love aint 'bout braggin' and boastin',
It listens with both ears open,
It doesn't say that it loves you 'cuz its just goin' through the motions,
Love has never been greedy,
Love is not proud,
Love don't get jealous when you and friends decide to hang out,
Love has never been fake,
Love has never been fraud,
And shawty, Love has redeemed us,
Love is our God,
Love won't corrupt,
And trust me Love is a must,
Love is patiently waitin',
Naww, Love will not rush. 

(Hook 1)

(Outro) It Won't Be Rushed, no (x2)

Lyrics:

(Verse 1 - James Julius)
Early in the mornin',
Breath stinkin' while I'm yawnin',
Mayne I look up out my window,
Seein' that the rain is pourin',
They told me, "Take the day off.",
But that will never pay off,
Lord help me keep my cool in the midst of all this chaos,
Yup, death is all around me,
Them haters try to clown me,
Even folks I love the most kick me while I'm down,
He said He'll never leave us and He said He won't forsake us,
They told us to deny the name but homie they can't make us,
Imma back my cross I take up,
In a world that is so frozen,
The storm produces fruit,
This is how I know I'm chosen,
I'm off and I'm soarin' even when I'm at my lowest,
Christ is my insurance,
Trials strengthen my endurance,
I just thought that ya'll should know this dogg,
Peep at what I'm sayin',
You ain't gotta take my word,
You can read it all in James,
He made it simple, made it plain,
When you're going through some things,
Ya, we pray for sunny days,
Until we dancin' in the rain,
Ayy.

(Bridge - James Julius)
Ya, they say that we crazy,
Ya man, they think that we insane,
'Cuz we count it as a joy,
As we're walkin' through the pain,
When the storm sticks around,
And it doesn't seem to change,
No we don't lay down, Naw,
'Cuz we're dancing in the rain.

(Chorus - TRUe)
Count it all joy,
Fight through the pain,
Let your faith produce patience,
You'll be dancing in the rain,
Follow the Lord,
He'll be your strength,
Maintain your focus,
And keep dancing in the rain,
Keep dancing in the rain.
(Chorus - Raely Elle)
Dancing in the rain (x4)

(Verse 2 - E-Sential)
In the midst of my trial it seems,
Like I'm on my own and I'm solo,
Thinkin' to myself like, "Where is my team?",
But The Lord knows that I gotta grow so,
I be up in the word like a feign,
And I'm readin' James,
Keep it deep inside of my heart,
When this world it gets mean,
Thank God that I've been set free,
I'm filled with joy,
But I can't lie, sometimes I'm annoyed,
When the enemy tries to destroy,
In the dark of the night,
But I got my sword,
Reppin' for Jesus Christ,
He the message boy,
When I be stuck I'm pressin' forward,
Never givin' up bro,
Kinda like Troy,
In the midst of trial endure by choice,
Hear His voice,
'Cuz it helps and gives you strength,
Persevere through,
Go dance in the rain,
And be filled with joy,
In the midst of your pain and give Him thanks,
That's the change,
That He brings when your rise up in faith instead of sink,
Trust in The King 'cuz He got you man,
Lift your hands up and just steady sing.

(Chorus - TRUe & Raely Elle)

(Verse 3 - Great Dem)
It's raining, It's pourin',
The old man is snorin',
But naw, we out dancin',
Bein' down and so foreign,
So we hope you're in the mood to start praisin',
My problems got me joyful,
So my hands I stay raisin' them,
Count it all joy when you fall through the trials,
Now we back flippin' wallets,
Sprinklin' like Gile,
Street fighters for the kingdom,
No lunch breaks,
Umbrellas for my brothers who ain't covered by pure faith,
It's a win or lose,
Livin' for Christ man,
You gotta chose,
Nothin' comes easy so watch what you do,
When you fall off and you see life gives you blues,
I'mma tell you the news,
Christ is alive so it's time to cruise,
We used to live hood,
Now it's good once we found out the heaven move,
And the serpents bruise,
We wearin' rain boots,
We're prepared to win,
Now catch us moon walkin' when it's floodin' in,
This is where the pain ceases,
And the love begins,
So Holy Spirit breathe,
Wash away our sins.

(Chorus - TRUe & Raely Elle)

"Made New" Album

"Break 'Em Off" is track 14 of James Julius' "Made New" Album.  Individuals who are the most intimidating need the gospel message just as much as anyone else.  People in the roughest neighborhoods are often feared and neglected by, not all, but many Christians who are spreading truth.

This song encourages believers to have courage when ministering to people in all areas.  It also serves as a reminder to how urban ministry is so influential in reaching lost sheep in places beyond our "comfort-zone".  

"I am the living bread that came down from heaven. Anyone who eats this bread will live forever; and this bread, which I will offer so the world may live, is my flesh." John 6:51! Let's Break 'Em Off a piece of that living bread!

Lyrics:

(Intro)
Ya, It's the word of God,
It's the bread of life,
We got it and they need it,
Let's break 'em off.

(Verse 1)
I stand firm with my faith,
Never shake nor shiver,
I'm about to break 'em off,
The bread of life is what I give 'em,
Callin' Papa for the orders,
Man, I betcha he'll deliver,
Old James has been dead,
They say they found 'em by the river,
See the hood has been starvin',
They want that soul food,
And I ain't 'bout to be stingy,
Let's feed the multitude,
Headed up to I-5 with J. Cromes in the Suburban,
Now we swervin',
Lookin' to serve 'em,
Living water's what we servin',
In a setting that is urban and them gangstas lounge here,
And if you ain't from 'round here,
They say, "Don't come around here.",
They tote them guns around here,
Dope fiends they run around here,
That's why we missional,
Ya, we preach The Son around here,
Rollin' 'round M.L.K.,
Ya them choppers might blow,
And if you slip on the wrong tip,
Might get your casket closed,
You betta' lock yo' doors when them thangs take off,
Hey Cromie stop the car dogg,
Cuz I gotta break 'em off, ayy.

(Chorus)
The hood has been starvin',
They been hungry for awhile,
Ya we got the bread of life,
And I know the time is now,
I break 'em off,
I break 'em off,
Ya it's time to break 'em off,
You break 'em off,
You break 'em off,
Ya it's time to break 'em off,
(x2)

(Verse 2)
Ain't no time for the playin',
Ain't no time for the games,
There's people hurtin', lookin', and searchin',
Theres souls to be saved,
I know there's killas on Killingsworth who be movin' a killa work,
Who don't know about The Son,
They don't know what the killings worth,
So we breakin' bread with all them,
Show 'em how to follow Him,
Tyra Banks fool,
Best believe we gon' model Him,
Follow Him, 'till the day I die,
When they put me in the earth,
When I hit the hearse and it lifts the dirt,
When He back to attack and to get the church,
All of me now,
Speakin' and seekin' of Jesus,
And wanna follow Him now,
Call on Him now,
Shackles be broken to pieces whenever my father's around,
They think they know but they don't know,
Been a rebel, send me Lord I'll go,
Everybody walkin' 'round with a blindfold,
Eyes closed,
That's why I break 'em off though.

(Chorus) Christian Rap

(Bridge)
I break 'em off
(x8)
I break 'em off, I break 'em off,
Ya It's time to break 'em off,
You break 'em off, You break 'em off,
Ya It's time to break 'em off,
(x2)
