Verse 1
Unorthodox, traced back in earlier roots
My grandparents immigrated for food not for loot
It ain't cute
When you ain't got nothing to eat
And got no spiritual foundation under your feet

Now that's some real heat
They had no heat
Now, that's some real street
They had no street
They had no Christ, they had no peace
But then they met Him and know they really know peace

Their new worldview broke tradition
Their new worldview
provoked cultural suspicion
Their new worldview brought even brought division
But that same worldview gotyou listening
Listen

It was passed down from my parents to me
I got this unorthodox family tree
If you get down with the movement
You can be fam with me
We making this music to make the people free

Hook
Unorthodox
We rock your city blocks
We rock your roof tops
We rock your boondocks

Unorthodox
We shake your shell tops
We shake your top rock
We shake your boombox

Unorthodox
We break your old clocks
We break your hard knocks
We break your old locks

Unorthodox
We break your stereotypes
We shake your stereo right
We let you know Christ rocks!

Verse 2
Grew up a pastor's kid aka a PK
And in Philly kid, its hip-hop every day
It's so easy to stray with no street lights
I found myself browsing the wrong sites

Those were some long nights
Spiritually some real fights
Until I stopped fighting and dropped my rights
And got connected; let Him edit my profile
Myspace used to be so vile

Its so wild
How His software can clean your hard drive and make you a new child
His new community
With all the friends I've made
Check my music player – all the songs they've played

All the comments saved
My tour dates; all the places I've played
Its an unorthodox page
Cause of the path He paved
Cause of the price He paid
My lifestyle reps Christ cause of the life He gave

Repeat Hook

Verse 3
On my journey's people ask my occupation
I tell em' I'm a pastor and an artist – there's amazement
True engagement
Sometimes I wish I could take they look and frame it
They can't picture a cat that's braided
Cause the old school presentation got 'em jaded
But so many people waited
For a ministry out the box
With no cultural locks

Crossover church; unorthodox
Dreadlocks
Fades and fitted's
A multi-cultural faith community that's
committed
To the great commandment and the Great Commission
We orthodox in our beliefs, but not in our fishing

We into Biblical context and not tradition
Cause we're more concerned about your heart's condition
(We got a passion from God) – so we're Purpose Driven
We look just like you, but we found what's missing

Hook until end
