Reppin' The Kingdom Lyrics


Reppin' in the kingdom, I'm reppin' reppin' the kingdom (8X)
(Deitrick Haddon)
I go first, gimme that mike
Gotta get this party started right
Everybody scream to the top of your lungs
Holy Ghost gonna have you speaking in tongues
I'm a part of a dynasty
A family that's been set free like me
They call me D Haddy
Everywhere I go all eyes on me
Cuz when I lead 'em to the cross
God the Father is the boss
My job is to win the lost
Save a soul at any cost
We gonna go from the east coast to the west coast
Find out who's reppin' the most
New generation, taking our freedom
Reppin' the kingdom

(Chorus)
Reppin' the Kingdom (4x)
(Detroit City) I'm in
(Indiana, LA) I'm in
(New York City) you can count me in
I'm reppin' the kingdom
Reppin' the Kingdom (4x)
(All right) I'm in
(Okay) I'm in
(I wanna hear it) you can count me in
(J. Moss way) I'm reppin' the kingdom
(J. Moss)
(Just jam) I'm droppin number 2
The second don't mean that I couldn't run the point
I rep from the Midwest
A south mile hood rep good on the joint
Get your hands up, rep your city
If you love him go and tell everybody you know
(Now jam) It's me from the D you gonna see with D Haddy
But enough about me
Rep that, for the lost
Rep that, for the broken
Rep that, you feel defeated
Rep that, you haven't lost
Rep that, you haven't lost
Rep that, stay in His face
Rep that, blessed in this freedom
Rep the Kingdom
(Chorus)
Reppin' the Kingdom (4x)
(Houston) I'm in
(North Carolina) I'm in
(South Carolina) you can count me in
(Mississippi) I'm reppin' the kingdom
Reppin' the Kingdom (4x)
(Put your hands up) I'm in
(CA-A-A) I'm in
(Let's Go see) you can count me in
(Canton in the A-A-A) I'm reppin' the kingdom
(Canton Jones)
The kingdom is my business
So you can call me a business man
I follow the scriptures
So you can call that my business plan
Do what He tell me to do
That is how my business is ran
K-Jo is my business brand
See me in my business stance
throw your fist in the air for the kingdom
It don't matter where they come from bring 'em
International or bilingual
We gonna let the Holy Ghost power sting 'em
Drug deals, pimps, thugs, kids, teens, or older
Bow your head to Jehovah
Okay, now you're a soldier
(Chorus)
Reppin' the Kingdom (4x)
(Louisiana) I'm in
(Alabama) I'm in
(Memphis, Nashville) You can count me in
I'm reppin' the kingdom
(DC, Philly)
Reppin' the Kingdom (4x)
I'm in
(I think I wanna bring new blood up in this beat) I'm in
(We got a rookie) You can count me in
(How about I introduce my family) I'm reppin' the kingdom
(T. Haddon)
T-T-T Haddy on the track
Born in the A
Raised in the D
Haddy is my cousin
We rep the family tree (yep)
Covenant to the father so we rep for sure (yep)
And we gotta rep the kingdom everywhere we go (sang cuz)
True swagger is in our my blood
Believing in Him because
All this loving's from above (sang cuz)
Water ain't thicker than blood
Yeah Jesus spilled it in love
Tell me you reppin' with us
(Chorus)
Reppin' the Kingdom (4x)
I'm in
I'm in
(Wait a minute) You can count me in
(Tye Tribbet's in the building) I'm reppin' the kingdom
(Tye Tribbet)
Greetings earthlings
I know I sound kinda weird
Might as well get used to it
Accept it cuz I'm not from here
We represent the kingdom of God
With all my flaws, my mistakes and all
When you talking Kingdom, man
You're saying God is Lord
And whatever else you're saying
Man, I get kinda bored
Cause all that really matter
Is who you're living for
And if you're reppin' Christ
Let me see you hit the floor
We represent the kingdom of God, man
We represent the kingdom of God, man

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Born and raised in the Motor City , Haddon was another gospel child prodigy, both as minister and musician. He gave his first sermon at the church of his father, Bishop Clarence Haddon, at age 11, and was directing the choir by age 13.

Haddon began his recording career in the mid 90s with the Voices of Unity on the small Tyscot label. As the group leader for their three albums, Haddon expressed his forward looking musical view, merging elements of soul, hip-hop and funk in the group's Gospel music. VOU had some mild success on the Gospel charts, but by the late 90s Haddon was ready to move more clearly front and center as a solo artist. His first two solo albums, This is My Story and Chainbreaker continued his artistic development and made some moderate noise on the Gospel charts.

However, I’m not sure that even the devoted fan base he had been accumulating could have anticipated his late 2002 release, Lost and Found, his first on giant Gospel label Verity. A project as ambitious as Tonex’s noted debut, Pronounced Toe-Nay, Lost and Found is an exhaustive, inspired opus by a Gospel artist who, with its release, clearly declared himself a new Gospel star.

The disc begins sounding like a dance Gospel album, leading off with two funky numbers, “D.D.” and “Oh Yeah” (the latter featuring the ubiquitous Fred Hammond). From there it covers broad territory, including bluesy, southern soul (“Ain’t Got Nothing” and the radio hit, “Sinner’s Prayer”), Praise & Worship (“Worship Medley”), Prince-style electric soul (“It’s Me”), big ballads (“Stand Still”) and joyous calypso (“The Praises Go (Up, Up, Up)”). Haddon is literally bursting with musical ideas on the album and, amazingly, virtually all work. Equally impressive is the strong lyrical content of the disc – much of it autobiographical -- focusing principally on the power of redemption and the ability of faith to rescue lost or miscast souls.

It took me almost two months to review Lost and Found, mostly because it took so long to fully absorb such an ambitious project. Now I can clearly say that this stands, with Mary Mary’s “Thankful” and Tonex’s “O2,” as perhaps the definitive modern Gospel album of this decade, and is a must for both Soul and Gospel lovers.
