Intro
He is on my side
Jesus, He walks with me
Chorus
Get back to the business, I feel the Spirit moving through the city
I got the light shining, come get it
Walking with Christ, moving where it's gritty
Walking with Christ, moving where it's gritty
I feel the Spirit moving through the city

Verse 1
Woah
I was chasing my glory then fell asleep
Woke me up, and told me to go feed the sheep
Send me deep in the streets just to bring 'em peace
Yeah, we be where them blickies be bussin'
Where they end your life with no discussion
But as soon as they see the Light rushin'
They know that the Lord walking with us, no bluffing
People say that I'm fake, I'm like "Okay
Do you walk in the Light, or are you throwing shade?"
116 on my skin, I got no shame
We was preaching about Jesus before fame
Brrrat, did that, on my side, yeah, He been there
Asked the devil where my sins at
On the cross 'cause He pinned that
Big throne where He sits at
Death hit Him and He hit back
Resurrected, yeah, that's big facts
Told us hold it down 'til He get back (Back)
Chorus
Get back to the business, I feel the Spirit moving through the city
He is on my side
I got the light shining, come get it
Jesus, He walks with me
Walking with Christ, moving where it's gritty
Walking with Christ, moving where it's gritty
He is on my side
I feel the Spirit moving through the city
Jesus, He walks with me
I see the people tryna bring it with me
We got the light tell 'em "come and get it", yeah
Verse 2
Yeah, walk with me (With me)
Step in the scene with the flock
Had to keep it so steady, don't fall for the false
Had to cut out the session, He got it to crop
Hold up, spiritual weapons when miracles happen
I'm never surprised 'cause of God
They say I'm no Hannah Montana, I ain't switching my banner
Like David we slinging the rock (The rock)
We kickin' this beat in, boy I serve Yeshua
Even if it means I'm bleeding (Means I'm bleeding)
Come kill my flesh, my soul still breathing
Speak through me
Yeah, yeah, this heart keep beating (Beating)
These lungs keep singing (Singing)
Come and step into the kingdom (Yeah)
For the ones mistreated (Yeah)
'Til the day we see Him (Yeah)
This feel like the moment we seek and the day we can see Him
To want to get freedom to walk
Chorus
Walk, wa-walk, walk, walk, walk, walk, walk
He is on my side
Jesus, He walks with me

Walk, walk, walk, walk, walk, walk, walk
He is on my side
Jesus, He walks with me

Get back to the business, I feel the Spirit moving through the city
He is on my side

Jesus, He walks with me
Walking with Christ, moving where it's gritty
Walking with Christ, moving where it's gritty

Meaning & Inspiration
Walk is a hip-hop track about living out faith in public and in difficult places. The intro and hook repeat "He is on my side, Jesus, He walks with me," while the chorus describes the Spirit moving through the city, light shining, and walking with Christ where life is gritty. The repeated word walk works as a chant for a crowd.
The first verse tells of being woken from chasing personal glory and sent into the streets to bring peace, sharing the light where violence is common, and answers critics who call the message fake by pointing to preaching about Jesus before fame. It also summarizes the cross and resurrection. The second verse speaks of spiritual weapons, slinging the rock like David, and serving Yeshua even at a cost. The themes follow Galatians 5:16 on walking by the Spirit, 1 John 1:7 on walking in the light, and John 21:17 on feeding the sheep. The driving beat gives the song a bold, determined tone.
