Jeffrey Stephen Lewis - Already Paid (feat. Pastor Hines)

Boys kickin back layin in the shade
Aint nobody trippin cuz the tithes already paid
Boys kickin back layin in the shade
Boys kickin back layin in the shade
Aint nobody trippin cuz the tithes already paid
Boys kickin back layin in the shade
Boys kickin back layin in the shade
Aint nobody trippin cuz the tithes already paid
Boys kickin back layin in the shade

You think that you cant afford to
The truth is you cant afford not to
You think that you cant afford to
The truth is you cant afford not to
You think that you cant afford to
The truth is you cant afford not to

Before I faithfully paid my tithes
I was only giving an offering here and there
I was always short on cash
Without cash to lend or money to spare
Everything I bought was a challenge
Layaway credit and debt
Working 2 full time jobs but nothing to show for it yet
I used to think I was caught in a system designed for me to stay poor
Trying to do things on your own without the wisdom of God
You destine to stay broke
Its only a matter of time before a fool and his money part ways
God got a system designed for you to wealthy but your tithes got to stay paid

Layin in the shade
Layin in the shade
Layin in the shade

Boys kickin back layin in the shade
Aint nobody trippin cuz the tithes already paid
Boys kickin back layin in the shade
Boys kickin back layin in the shade
Aint nobody trippin cuz the tithes already paid
Boys kickin back layin in the shade
You think that you cant afford to
The truth is you cant afford not to
You think that you cant afford to
The truth is you cant afford not to

The devil will have you thinking what the people gonna do with them
Its not your concern what the people do God want to know do you trust in Him
If people are corrupt with the tithing let God be the one to deal with them
Stop finding excuse not to pay your tithes let go of that 10 percent
There is no excuse that justifies not honoring God with your first fruits
And when I say first fruits all it means is let it be the first thing you do
It comes before your bills food phone hair nails outfit and a new pair of shoes
You say you cant afford to pay but the truth is you cant afford not to

Kicking back
Kicking back
Kicking back
Kicking back
Boys kickin back layin in the shade
Aint nobody trippin cuz the tithes already paid
Boys kickin back layin in the shade
Boys kickin back layin in the shade
Aint nobody trippin cuz the tithes already paid
Boys kickin back layin in the shade
You think that you cant afford to
The truth is you cant afford not to
You think that you cant afford to
The truth is you cant afford not to

Will a man rob God yet you have rob Me
You say how have I robbed You? in your tithes and offerings
The reason cant keep no money because you are cursed with a curse
Holding on to your wallet and clinching on to your purse
Bring all your tithes to the storehouse so their may be food in my house
You can put me and my word to the test in this try me now
And see that I don't open the windows of heaven for blessings to pour out
Don't go against the law that was made by God with all the power
To rebuke the devourer of things popping up when you try to save
Follow the law of God that rebukes the devour for your sake
And whether you know it or not theres always a sacrifice to be made
Might as well be 10 percent of the first fruits so blessings flow out of heavens gate
Paying tithes will keep you discipline from buying things that you don't need
The kingdom of heaven will open up blessings you don't have room to receive
You hustling hard with no trust in God
Im over here laying in the shade
Im done trying to obtain things from the world
Thats why my tithes already paid
