Lyrics
(Spoken Word)
Listen close
They tried to bury it, censor it
Shut it down
From kings to courts
From streets to screens
But you can’t silence what God already spoke
Over 300 prophecies
Written long before the cross
And every one of them still stands
And I’m back
To remind ‘em
(Verse 1)
Yeah, they tried to shut my voice down
Tried to cut the line
Said keep that faith quiet
Said don't cross that line
From the boardroom suits to the corner streets
Same old devil trying to chain my feet
But I’ve been in the fire, I’ve been through the flood
Washed in the river, covered in blood
(Pre-Chorus)
You can’t scare a man that’s already died
Came back preaching with the Word inside
You can lock the doors, you can dim the lights
But truth don’t fade in the darkest night
(Chorus)
You can’t silence the Word
No, you can’t shut it down
It was written in stone
Now it’s written in my sound
From the prophet’s voice to the nails in His hands
Every promise fulfilled just like He planned
300 signs, yeah, they all came true
And I’m standing right here just to preach it to you
Devil tried to stop it, but he don’t understand
You can’t silence the Word
It’s in God’s hands
(Verse 2)
Isaac cried out about a virgin birth
Micah named the town He’d walk this earth
David wrote the pain, for the cross was raised
Every single line still shouts His name
Pierced for the sin, betrayed for silver
Silent like a lamb, but the truth got bigger
Grave couldn’t hold Him, stone rolled wide
Now I’m testifying with that fire inside
(Pre-Chorus)
They tried to bury truth, thought it’d disappear
But the louder they push, the louder we hear
You can’t silence the Word
No, you can’t shut it down
(Chorus)
You can’t silence the Word
No, you can’t shut it down
It was written in stone
Now it’s written in my sound
From the prophet’s voice to the nails in His hands
Every promise fulfilled just like He planned
300 signs, yeah, they all came true
And I’m standing right here just to preach it to you
Devil tried to stop it, but he don’t understand
You can’t silence the Word
It’s in God’s hands
(Bridge)
Go ahead, ban it
Block it, bury it deep
It’ll rise in a whisper
It’ll shout in the streets
From the prisons to the churches
From the lost to the found
God’s Word don’t die
It just gets louder now
(Outro)
They tried to stop the cross, He rose again
Tried to kill the truth, it won't end
From prophecy to promise, from the grave to the sky
You can’t kill the Word
‘Cause the Word don’t die
You can’t silence the Word
Let it ring, let it roar
It was truth back then, it’s still truth evermore
300 prophecies, everyone fulfilled
From Calvary’s Hill to the Empty Hill
And I’m back with a fire they can’t command
Still preaching truth across this land
Devil tried to stop me, but here I stand
You can’t silence the Word
I’m a witness, man
You can fight it
You can hate it
You can try to erase it
But the Word was here before you
And it’ll be here after you
And I ain’t done speaking
