Rap/Hip-hop song about needing the Lord's protection physically, spiritually and how we are dead spiritually without accepting His Loving Forgiveness.

Lyrics:
1.Walkin through the dangerous hood, surrounded by all these crazies. 
I need your protection Lord. Without You, I’d be pushin up daisies, 
I’d be: 
Abolished, annihilated, canceled, decimated, eliminated, eradicated, erased and killed.
Exterminated, 187, obliterated, sliced, diced, put on ice and chilled. 
I’m a dead man without You. Without You I’m a dead man.(x2)
Lord I love You. Lord I need You. (x2)

2. Unless you protect the city Lord, those that guard it, guard it in vain.
Unless You protect me in this crazy traffic, My safety go down the drain,
  Without You: 
I’m screwed, worm food, subdued, breathless, lifeless, hopeless, passed away.
Croaked, revoked, dead meat, done in, snuffed out, off the cliff, I'm a stiff in decay.
I’m a dead man without You. Without You I’m a dead man.(x2)
Lord I love You. Lord I need You.(x2) 

3. My soul needs your salvation Jesus, You are my hiding place.
Without You I’m Hellbound, Lord I need to seek your face.
Without You I’m
Disqualified, unjustified, dissatisfied, dead in sin, darkness, desolate, penalized, demoralized.
Empty, lost, blind, denied. Hellbound, goin down, lake of fire, fried, agonized.
I’m a dead man without You. Without You I’m a dead man.(x2)
Lord I love You. Lord I need You.(x2)
   
4. I deserve hell but going to heaven when I breathe my last breath
because Jesus rose from the dead He paid for sin He defeated death.
I’m a forgiven rhythmic expressionist.
My Best Friend is a Jewish Exorcist.
I’m brought to life. In the light, at peace, justified.
Redeemed, Loved, clean, rectified, satisfied.
I’m a dead man without You. Without You, I’m a dead man.(x2)

I'm A Dead Man

We shouldn’t let the hypocrisy, flaws and apostasy of others keep us from growing in our own relationship with The Lord. ...

Vs 1
Another leader falls, another “believer” found in sin.
A so-called Christian says he’s been un-born again.
Deconstruction, apostasy, call it what you will.
Join the ranks of Judas, Devil deceiving people still.

CHORUS
It don’t matter, it don’t matter, I’m gonna follow Jesus!
It don’t matter, it don’t matter, I’m gonna follow Jesus!
Tho many fall away, don't matter what they say;
I’m gonna follow Jesus!

Vs 2
They can follow their idols and worldly treasures,
They can follow after their materialistic pleasures.
Tho many fall away, I'm gonna stay focused on the Prize.
I'm stickin’ with Jesus, Not gonna follow no worldly lies.

CHORUS
Refrain,Reprise,Breakdown,ReggaePart,WhateverYaCall It,LOL
Don’t let the acts of hypocrites keep you from the Lord.
Jesus ain’t no hypocrite, He paid the price we couldn’t afford.
The road to Heaven is narrow, those that find it are few.
It’s not too late, the prodigal came back, so can you.
CHORUS
