This is "Took My Place" off the new tape "Redeemed" in honor of Good Friday, as we celebrate what the Lord Jesus Christ did for us almost 2,000 years ago! 

Second track off the mixtape entitled "Open" - dropping Easter Sunday!


Artist: Kirk
Song: "Took My Place"
Album: Redeemed

VERSE 1:
We’re sick and twisted
There is no fixing
We need new vision
heart transfigured
we’re dead and oozing
Vile and spewing
Like the Jags and Dolphins
We’re always losing

Beyond recovery
Always suffering
Blind to the fact that we
Are stuck in drudgery
true grand total
But I'll give the summary
All for the vanity
Pursue discovery

Man trying to play by his
own known rules
Then he claims there’s no God
Now reduced to a fool
Got the tools and the fuel
For Utopian jewels
But he builds on the sand
So, it slips through his hand

That’s the cycle now
You get it yet?
Your hooked in the jaw
With a bigger net
You just fall in line
And never break a sweat
For some printed paper
And the latest tech

Or maybe not the physical
Peace of mind
Extra time
From the daily grind
“Awake O’Sleeper”
From your darkest dread
And Christ will shine
And bring you out from dead

But if the aim to your life
Is for self to impress
Then you’ll die in your sin
Unless the tongue can confess
That The Christ is Lord
Took your shame and guilt
When He died on that cross
With His blood He spilt

The term was coined
The Great Exchange
All your sins
On the Lamb was laid
The debt was paid
With no human aid
God in the flesh
Jesus Christ the name

Stood in your place
Mocked and disgraced
Bowed to the ground
Then they spat in His face
Beaten with a cat of nine-tails
Bone laced
Screaming while redeeming
All of His
No waste

Even while their lethal
In their dealings of a man
Who came to save em'
Though they hate em'
Still His love remains
This is what is written
The Lamb he was smitten
Bore the fathers wrath
For His own flocks sinning

They laugh and they mock
Cuz they think blaspheming
But the Lord tore the veil
To restore us to Eden
For the door it was locked
Chasm blocked
For this reason
That our sin against the LORD
Left us dead and defeated

CHORUS:
My sin is what separated
Me from you
But you took my place
Death has been erased
With the final breath
That you drew
Now you are raised
Victorious
and hold me
With your perfect love
So I offer up
Myself back to you

VERSE 2:
The Son did not
Condescend and walk
Just to come and have a bunch people
gasp in awe
He gave His life for his own
Those within the flock
Poured His Blood
To atone
He alone could stop
The wage of sin
Held death within
Every son of Adam
For their disobedience
prone to escape with
Justified defense
Until they see their truly naked
When we zoom the lens
Upon defiance of the Righteous
In its truest sense
Defied the God
Who should of brought the rod
Upon rebellious human being
For their garbage thoughts
Of thinking they can be like god
And ignore the truth
Cuz He defines every movement
That we make or do
And if He says don’t touch
Or you’ll surely die
That’s not a reason just to contemplate and wonder why?
Realize your crimes
Now creates a line,
Empty chasm now divides
Up The truth and lie
He can’t look on disgust
And what’s putrified
Of an unholy vessel
Not sanctified
So look to Christ
Who was crucified
He was beat and stricken
Put to death, than risen
Took your spot for you,
For the wrath that’s due
Now to end the schism
With atoned provision
To present you blameless
When we cross to the other side
Once we’re far
Brough near we are
Thanks to Him by His death
We are set apart
Sanctified this day
When we place our faith
In Jesus
Believers ,
By Grace are saved
All our debts been paid
With no human aid
It’s by the might of Christ
That our fines been waved
And those with ears
Who by the Spirit hears
Please repent and return
And from His wrath escape

REPEAT CHORUS

~~Happy Good Friday! He. Is. Risen. ~~

"I'm ashamed of my name, and my stomachs feelin' sick/ I know that I'm the reason that you took your stuff in split/ so I through myself a fit/ thinking that would change your mind/Hoping that the answer was that you just needed time/I'm a dummy, think its funny?/ When your gunning for the money/Realize real mistakes can be made in the running/If your living for the now/taking downs for the stunning/End up in the wrong town, know the storm is coming/For decisions you envisioned would just never come to pass/Continued in the way, now your reaping it at last/Had the MERCY and the GRACE staring at you in the face/trodding down the road now has set you in your place/

In Your Place [BONUS TRACK]

Now how we gonna wonder how got into this mess 
After starving on the constant, put ourselves up under stress,
Under death, we invest in the woes we reap 
keep on climbing back on top onto the sandy beach 
It’s like Royal G said, quoting Jimi on the track
Sand castles stacked packed 
can’t build up out of that 
Cuz we know fall flat
got the sand up in our teeth 
But the reason for it’s coming 
Cuz You only think of ME!
ME!!!! ME ME ME ME ME!
MINE MINE MINE! Gotta stop!
Let it drop 
Your just building on the sand 
No God as your rock, 
How are you, gonna stand?
To the Judge to the Man
When you trusted in yourself
Instead to give it to the one who nailed your sin up in his hands 
Who would come to our land, His creation, to suffer
Salvation is founded in Christ, and no other 
But people will studder, and stumble up over the cleft that’ll cover there troubles
And chances that doubled, we fail and we know it,
But no one will notice, as long as we hold it 
And keep it, and bury it deep in the pit of our stomach
To the point  I feel I’m getting over it 




Somebody go for me, 
I ain’t gonna make it, feel Im breaking 
Cuz Im building on a sandy shore  
I think I own my life, it was bought, at a price  
Pick and choose how I want like a candy store 


When I think I want more
Instead of thankful 
For every single year of blessing
Even got me through the stressing 
Tend to focus on the getting
Then I end up soon resenting 
All my blessing, from the rest of
Every stage of my progression 
Im a fool, want the tools and a pool
Not what’s necessary 
Can’t stop, kinda scary
How I put my efforts into only what I want 
So I launch off, know I’ll  probably fall of 
Need the foundation, set in it’s place
Not build on the rock, fall flat on your face
its like I tell ya about the wise man and his place 
It’s built on the One True Stone
came to take you home 
And people try to rob you it’s okay
Not storing up that which decays 
Keep your eyes on Christ, 
Not the waves at bay 
If it’s built on the Rock,
Then the house will stay

Sandy Shore [2017]

Impurities [2019]

All I Need Is You [2019]

Look up!
Now bow down! 


Sure have a minimal amount of time
For me to unpack everything that’s on my mind
And so I’ll get right to the point 
Of why I came
And you better hold tight
Never slack the reigns 
Cuz I will maintain this proclamation 
Jesus Christ, and His Incarnation 
Stepping into time at the fullness of 
Took the form of a servant when he showed his love 
By emptying himself of deity 
Putting it aside, dwell amongst the laity 
Giving up his life, thou their disobeying Him 
But it goes way further then misbehaving 
They nailed his wrists into a board 
 But they had no clue what this was for 
The Son of God, Incarnate now 
Hanging from that cross as they cry aloud,
“Let him save Himself, get up off the cross”
But he came to seek and save the lost 
But the people never got it just like us today
For those with ears to ear
Listen what the preacher has to say 
We point our boney finger in other’s agendas
While we walk around town living as the biggest pretenders 
Were defenseless. Hopeless beings
For the census: Romans 3
Paul concludes that all are guilty 
Leaving all without a plea 
Though our rags are awfully filthy 
Jesus Christ will make them clean
Then He’ll send The Holy Spirit
To convict and purge the weeds 
Cuz I cant approach the Lord
Unless I’m covered by the Son  
And when judgement hits the Earth
Wont be coming like   the Flood 
But the Moon will turn to blood
And the stars will not give
Up the light that they shine 
That’s the start of the end
When the Christ enters time
To condemn the wicked 
Recommend repentance
All your sins, forgiven
This Fulfillment of the Scripture
In their total exposition 
Now he sends his people out 
But the trout aint what their fishing 
He will lead his people onto hostile ground
Where the bulls and the wolves like to trod around 
and though the darts of the enemy abound surround 
 got the shield of my faith to deflect, redound 
Graduated off the milk, like a cap and gown
I was lost, but now I'm found
Blind as a bat, till it came unlatched 

That's when I looked up...then I bowed down!

Incarnation [2019]

I guess it started back when I was chilling with the homies
Me and Dejuan gathered to discuss this fear approaching 
How we’re always with the crowd, but end up feeling lonely
I think it was the night we were around the fire glowing 
Pyromaniacs, we finding anything to throw in
Got to thinking bout the time I’m wasting while were joking
It’s like the scales had fallen of my eyelids, now they’re showing 
Started to hit me hard like gusty winds that’s always blowing
Feet in two canoes, I’d try to balance while they’re floating 
Even though I knew different directions they were going
Proceeded to sink down into the blackness of my clothing
He left the 99 that’s safe and sound, and then He chose me!

Atoned, He rose again
For those who hope in Him 
Glory to the Son who took 
 The wrath of God with no relent
Yeah….he showed us when he…..

My life would still be nothing 
If I didn’t possess his covering 
I was paralyzed inside my mind
Until he lit my dungeon 
Every single night after that one
Was always different 
was not just some religion 
No pretending, this is real life 
My heart and my soul was lit up….talking ignite
Now I spit truth to lift up,  to extend the light
All hope, All joy, all peace, all purpose 
Fulfillment, Instilled it’s
found only in Christ
Different voices will be speaking in your ear
Don’t listen
Sinister encryptions
 cover ever sector mentioned 
Whether media that whispers 
Or you see it when you venture 
 Pretenders They’re considers 
but the righteous they will hinder
we must follow on the path that’s set before us now to journey 
and anything that might end up distracting from enduring 
we must burn it in the furnace
Like Elisha in a hurry 
When nervously
 in turning he
looked back upon his earning spree

Atoned & Rose Again [2019]

Let me slide for a minute
Theres a vibe that I’m feeling 
cuz I got some information 
that’ll frighten the children  
But it’s right when your
Talking about life after this and 
 denying it simply mindless and ignorant 
Think back to Israel’s precise deliverance 
The tactics used by the Lord, an instrument 
For their refusal to bow in reverence 
And set the people free bondage
even in rebellion
He Fulfilled the promise 
He gave a single outlet, it’s the only way
To follow these instructions
So don’t turn in vein 
Or you will suffer the Egyptian fate
Plague after plague piled on their plate
But just a word from Pharaoh
and it go away 
But the heart of the king
Never ringed 
It was mean 
So the Lord
He would bring 
Down the creatures
With wings
And the fleas and disease 

As you climb to your feet
And there’s a bunch of frogs all sitting in your seat 
So your run outside, started feeling pail 
Looked up at the sky, raining down is hail 
So you Think to grab a boat, the ideas to sail 
Think back now to Noah, and remember the flood 
Look at the Nile, its defiled in blood! 
God intervenes for the people He loves 
Their a pain in the butt
A stick in the mud 
But God chose His own , though
Deserving is tough 
Now the very next part gets a little bit bloody
There is no escape, and they surely ain’t running 
So God gives direction what to do in the land 
Every man, with his fam, with a tool in their hand 
Is to cut the throat of the newborn lamb 
And to put it on the door with a hyssop branch 
Substitute for your life, then you’ll hide inside 
For The angel of Death will pass on by 
And this is to ensure that you will not soon die 
Instead of getting perfect justice 
From the Lord you tried
The Angel passing over 
Every door and coming closer
To observe the bloody print
You posted in due time
The blood of sacrifices
Really never was sufficing 
It was just a picture chiming
Till we get to Christ 
His atoning work
Will bring a man new life 
It’s only made available
Through his wound stripes
And every other person
Will receive doomed plight 
Now they’re pausing 
Contemplating 
That they feel contrite 
And the post of the door
Is supposed to be your life
And the Lamb in your place
Is a sure Christ-type 
Refuse not to come and
get your sins washed white 
then the Lord could require
Of your soul tonight

Wrath [2019]

People never understand your motivation 
Till they see the fruit produced or interest they lose
Small windows open for an opportunity
to cop a unity 
with a few friends who choose
to engage in more than just a surface level talk
"Hi, how you doing? How's your week?"
Let's stop
Cuz we're lying if were saying that were good when were not
Lets be real for a minute hit the clinic call a doc
Cuz we don't seem to get it though we visit on the constant
falling for the gimmick but the image is of nonsense
I try to run my route, like I'm Ben J. Bronson
but always ending up right back into bondage
So why like the dog do we return to our vomit?
Thinking that we'll get fulfillment this is what astonished
me, on my knees, full of doubt like Thomas
Grieves without ease like I'm about to be demolished
Then I see the Son of God, the Image of Invisible
Father, Son & Spirit, three in one is indivisible 
My hearts a filthy rag and my conditions looking pitiful
call your handy plumper, he will tell you we're not fixable
Its typical in principle we water down our wickedness
Hard to tell the difference when were judging by our impotence
strictly horizontal man, you don't make a synthesis 
you ain't doing nothing, when your hearts are full of viciousness

*CHORUS*
You'll never understand, until you take His Hand
You'll never come to grips
that the Son of Man was coming to redeem your sin

Waking up every single day feeling restless
Overwhelmed the amount of pressure that will stress us
and were supposed to be on guard protecting from infection
how we gonna do it when the world in collection
is looking for the satisfaction nothing but subjection
sex, pride, power, money feeding the injection
think its time we take a look at what we've been reflecting
cuz I can guarantee with the stuff that you seek
your sowing to flesh and so destruction you will reap
this a warning to the unbeliever, you don't wanna meet
a God who's been patience with the sin that's on repeat
Wrath of the Lamb that is coming will defeat
any unholy vessels unprepared for destruction
Volcano 'bout to blow they witness the eruption
Bowls full of wrath, pouring down in mass
None will survive when they surely come to pass
you were given every chance now it's dire that you clench
Cuz when you get to hell, fires never quenched
and "The worm dieth not" thats consuming on your body
Everlasting torment, It aint gonna be a party
cowards and idolaters and those who living haughty
Sorcerers to the torturers 
And the horrors and disorders like a sword that cuts
Will soon be forged by the groom in tux
to repay the evildoer with no ifs and buts
You were given every chance to repent and turn
now they wishing they would make a different choice
instead of living every instant no restraint was ever given
when  the Spirit called em' out and they resented
all the times they should of came to Christ and asked Him for forgiveness
 but they trusted in them self
Pride and the power made them only look to wealth
Down at the bottom of the well they looking up and screaming help

**Repeat Chorus**
