Well normally at this point you'd hear me sing
And I'd be doing that acoustic guitar thing
So by now you're probably wondering what's going on
'Cause this is really starting to sound like one of those rap songs
Well let me tell you what the boy's up to
You see I like rap music and the beat box groove
And sometimes I gotta admit I close all the doors
And wave my arms around and pace the floor
But then I crack up laughing and I have to stop
And just face the facts the boy don't hip hop
I grew up in a state where the grass is blue
So if it's gonna be believable it's gotta be true

It's got to be true I've gotta be living what I say I believe
It's got to be true even when nobody but Jesus is watching me
It's got to be true every single minute of every day
If anybody's ever gonna look at me and say hey it's got to be true

Case in point I've got a next door neighbor
And I can tell that he's been watching my behavior
'Cause He's heard that I'm a Christian guy
And He want's to find out if it's the truth or a lie
He's got a mile long list of reasons not to believe
Like doubt dissolution and hypocrisy
It's gonna take some living proof to break through those walls
Yea it's gotta be true if he'll believe it at all

It's got to be true I've gotta be living what I say I believe
It's got to be true even when nobody but Jesus is watching me
It's got to be true every single minute of every day
If anybody's ever gonna look at me and say hey it's got to be true
Whoa it's got to be true gotta let the light of Jesus' love come shining thru
