Lecrae - Spazz Lyrics
Lyrics
I might just spazz on them, knowing that they don't know me
I make all of my homies 40 deep, it's how we rollin
We pull up on your block and we ain't got no block .40's
No nina-millimeter, hope you never have to meet her
Put a rolla in a meter, this one right here's a cheater
Tryin' to get up in my zone, watch me hit this wide receivers
If you ain't a believer I'm looking for conversion
My 16 is a sermon, get you hands up in this service
I know when I bring that realness, go hard I've got the ...
They're telling me I'm sick, I already know I've got that illness
That ate away up heavy, my adrenaline has got me sweaty
I don't think these people ready, I'm a spazz if they let me.
Tell someone come and get me, cause if they get me started
I'm Leo DiCaprio, I'm gone, departed
This ain't for the faint of heart, it may be for the heartless
The way I eat this beat, you'd think i was a starving artist, spazz
Spazz
Boy, it's hard to hold this back, it's hard to keep this in
This spazz, it feel so right, not to do it it's a sin
Nah, I ain't got to be wildin' and I ain't got to be jumpin'
But you feel the walls humming, there's now people coming
Now they ain't smoking that good, ain't finna do nothing bad,
But they on Jesus juice so they probably gon' spazz
Hollering one one six, see it tatted on they wrist
Cause they ain't ashamed of nothing and they get it how they live
The old us is dead, the new one so legit
Got the spazz on in the game, cause we know we're about to win
And then I never said I was hot, but when fire gets in my bones
Got me sweatin' in the winter, got me hotter than a stove.
They probably think i done lost it, they probably thinkin I'm gone, but truth be told i done found it
I'm Gucci and I'm gone
I'm better than I ever been and truth done hit me, settled in
I'm spazzin on these people they don't want it, but they gettin it
Spazz

Lecrae - Spazz
Meaning & Inspiration
Lecrae’s 2013 track "Spazz," featured on the *Church Clothes* mixtape, explodes with an uncontainable energy that immediately grabs your attention. While the title might suggest a descent into chaos, Lecrae masterfully uses the concept of "spazzing" to describe a powerful, almost divine, overflow of conviction and purpose. This isn't about losing control in a negative sense; rather, it's about the overwhelming compulsion to express a deeply held truth, a divine urgency that demands release. The song's narrative centers on this internal pressure to share what he knows to be true, a feeling so potent that it feels like an uncontainable force. He declares that he's "lookin' for conversion" and that his verses are a "sermon," framing his lyrical output as a spiritual endeavor akin to a church service where hands are raised in recognition of a profound message. This aligns with the biblical call to share the Good News, as seen in Mark 16:15, where Jesus commands his disciples to "Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation." Lecrae acknowledges the intensity of this feeling, admitting, "They're telling me I'm sick, I already know I've got that illness," a sentiment that echoes the apostle Paul's powerful declaration in 1 Corinthians 9:16, "For if I preach the gospel, that gives me no reason to boast. For necessity is laid upon me. Woe to me if I do not preach the gospel!" The song powerfully conveys the feeling of being consumed by truth, an experience that can manifest as an outward fervor. The lyrics suggest that this "spazz" is not a destructive force but a transformative one, a marker of a spiritual awakening. When Lecrae raps about feeling "fire gets in my bones," it conjures images of divine inspiration, a burning passion that can't be quenched, much like the burning bush experienced by Moses in Exodus 3. The transformation he speaks of, "The old us is dead, the new one so legit," directly reflects the New Testament teaching on spiritual rebirth, as described in 2 Corinthians 5:17: "Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here!" The reference to "Jesus juice" and those "hollering one one six" points to a community united by their faith, finding their strength and purpose in Christ, represented by the One Way 116 Clique. This collective spirit and unapologetic declaration of faith are powerfully underscored by the song's assertive conclusion, where Lecrae asserts, "I'm spazzin on these people they don't want it, but they gettin it." This isn't aggression, but the unwavering conviction of truth being presented, much like the prophets of old who delivered God's message even when it was unwelcome. Ultimately, "Spazz" is an anthem of spiritual fervor, a testament to the electrifying power of truth that compels one to share it with an unyielding, yet divinely guided, passion.
