Gather Around the Throne

The Sword is the first official release of The Underground Railroad II: Civil War. This underground project contains original songs written to industry beats (for the purposes of illustrating the restorative power of the Gospel), and the central theme of this song and the songs to follow will be spiritual warfare, the internal battles with sin, the external spiritual forces that we have to contend with, the mission of preaching the gospel to those captured and enslaved by sin, and the victory and freedom that is found in Christ alone. 

Follow me on YouTube and on BandCamp to stay up-to-date with the drops.

This song contains the instrumental to "Cannon" by Lil' Wayne, produced by Don Cannon.

The Underground Railroad II: Civil War

The Sword - Mix

Those whom I love, I reprove and discipline, so be zealous and repent. Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and eat with him, and he with me. He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches. Rev 3:19-20, 21

Additional instrumentation and Engineered by: J Mickles

Includes an excerpt from "Paul Washer's Shocking Youth Message"

TLomS: To The Church

There are levels to this song, but the main point that I hope you get is that Christ is the light and life of man. There is no living (spiritually) without Him. And once we have an encounter with Him, the way that we live will prove it. 

And this is eternal life, that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent. John 17:3

And this is the testimony: that God has given us eternal life, and this life is in His Son. 1 John 5:11

TLomS: Welcome To The LIFE

In a world full of sin, heartbreak, rejection, depression, despair, and death, we find hope in the person and work of Jesus Christ, who is like a precious and beautiful jewel among us. While we were yet filthy and vile towards each other, Christ dwelt among us and died for us that we might have life abundantly.

The Life of My Story

Beautiful Jewel feat. Jaycee

"Semper Reformanda" is a shortened version of a Latin phrase that means "The church reformed, always reforming." As people, we have a proclivity to wander away from sound theology and biblical application. This is simply an exhortation to remember that it is God's word that directs the church, and should we deviate we must repent.

The Motto (Semper Reformanda)

The Underground Railroad was a network of people, African American as well as white, offering shelter and aid to escaped slaves from the South...but this project is not about that. Rather, this project takes the biblical doctrine of sin which teaches that we were slaves to sin before being set free by Christ. In this scenario, Christ, being the truth, the way, and the life, is our Underground Railroad. Through Him, we are free from the oppression of sin.

This album is also about the doctrine of restoration. When man fell, all of creation fell. When Christ restored man, He restored creation as well. So just like how I used my life to glorify sin before regeneration, and now use my life to glorify God, these instrumentals that I have chosen for the project that were once used to glorify sin and secularism are now being used to glorify God and share the gospel.

This track uses the instrumental from H.O.S.T.Y.L.E. -produced by DJ Premier
