Deliver Me from 'da Leaven of 'da Pharisee!


Step to 'da mic

Show 'em what cha got

Let Yah's breath 

Flow through your wind pipe

Ready or not

Let's go!

It's not even what

But WHO ya' know

So, let it FLOW!


Some folk don’t know how to pray

Cause they’re thinkin’ what to say

Just open your mouth

And thank Yah for another day

Thank Him for showin’ you a better Way

Think back to da’ day

When you were dead in your sin

And you thought your cover up was a win

Thank Yah dat’ now you know HIM

Open your mouth and begin

To praise HIM

Yeshua taught us to pray

He told us exactly what to say

“Abba in Heaven

Deliver me from ‘da leaven

Of ‘da Pharisee

Deliver me from the worst kind of heresy

Believin’ ‘dat my religious works

Will quench my spiritual thirst

‘Dat feels like it’s ‘bout to burst!

Believin’ I’m ‘da best, and others are ‘da worst

Abba in Heaven

Deliver me from ‘dis leaven

Of the Pharisee

Deliver me from ‘dis worst kind of heresy

Spiritual PRIDE

When I’m ‘da reason ‘dat Yeshua died!

I’m ‘da reason for His nail scared hands

I’m ‘da reason ‘dat He was treated like less than a man! 

I’m ‘da reason for ‘da scars in His feet

I’m ‘da reason ‘dat He got BEAT!

I’m ‘da reason ‘dat His blood shed

And ‘dat ‘da grave became His bed

And ‘dat’s not all

I’m not ONLY ‘da reason for His fall

I’m ‘da reason ‘dat Yah raised Him from ‘da dead!

‘Dat’s right!  I’m a partaker of the Livin’ BREAD!

Yet, I use His gifts to draw fans

And boldly declare ‘dat I’m more than a mortal man!

In fact, I’m blessed and highly favored

Yet, I don’t even know how to love my neighbor 

Abba in Heaven

Deliver me from ‘dis leaven

And teach me how to seek first

‘Da Kingdom of Heaven!

Deliver me from ‘da leaven of religion

Release me from ‘dis terrible prison

Help me understand ‘dat I’m not saved, 

'Cause of my decision

You’re the ONLY One Who really KNOWS me

And STILL You chose me!

In spite of my hypocrisy

In spite of my demented Pharisaical philosophy

Thank you for openin’ my eyes to see my vanity

Cause Your Word says,

 ‘Dat you died for ALL humanity

Abba in Heaven

Thank you for deliverin’ me from ‘dis leaven

Of ‘da Pharisee

Thank you for deliverin’ me from 

‘Dis worst kind of heresy

When You opened my eyes to SEE

And opened 'da Door to set me FREE

I began to build up ‘dis knowledge

And I boasted ‘dat I didn’t learn ‘dis stuff in college

But I spent years studying my Hebrew roots

And I know stuff the famous preachers 

Only wish they knew

When I should REALLY only seek to know YOU

I like to point out every mistake

I like to demonstrate

How every other form of Biblical faith is fake

Except my own

Cause I’m full grown

I’m grafted into Israel

And partake of the water from Jacob’s well

When in truth, I’m blind without maturity

Caught up in Israel’s false sense of security

The seed of Abraham is not enough

‘Dat’s why Yeshua called ‘da Pharisees’ bluff

Yet, just like ‘da scribes of old

Who were formed in a doctrinal mold

I just regurgitate

What I heard some rabbi or preacher state

Then I wait

With the ammunition in my gun

Come to think of it,

Not one single soul has been won!

Oh Abba in Heaven

Thank you for deliverin’ me from ‘dis leaven

Of the Pharisee

Thank you for deliverin’ me 

From 'dis worst kind of heresy

Then when you opened my eyes to SEE

And you set me FREE

From denominationalism

I began to see a color prism

I learned about the apostolic and prophetic call

And I took my place on the Wailing Wall

Yet, even ‘dis truth has been distorted

And so many true callings have been aborted

Forgive me for following a “movement”

Teach me how to truly REPENT

You died and rose again

So, ‘dat mere mortal men

Could begin

A true apostolic revolution

You revealed ‘da SOLUTION

To be ‘da Gospel of Your Kingdom

‘Dat every nation could become

ONE Under Yeshua

If only they knew ya!

But instead, we’ve proclaimed

Our own name

And advertised the way to riches and fame

And You keep crying out, “Apostles and Prophets!

Just STOP IT!"

"I’ve called you to the Covenant of Ahava

And Yeshua taught you to just call me, 'ABBA!'”

Here I am, Abba Father

Fill me with Living Water

Make me a true disciple

Show me how to LIVE the Torah of ‘da Bible

Teach me true humility

Not to rely on any human ability

But to offer up my total availability

So, ‘dat Your LIGHT I can finally SEE

And You can shine through me

So, 'dat I can BECOME ‘da TRUE ME!

Oh Abba in Heaven

I’m DONE with all religious leaven

I only want YOU

I only want to be made brand NEW

To walk in the footsteps of Yeshua

And one day hear, 

‘Come!  Cause I REALLY knew ya!”

Beyond your confession of faith

You actually walked THROUGH ‘da Narrow GATE!

You walked with Me through your ups and downs

You helped OTHERS to become UNBOUND!

Truly in you, Ahava has been found!’

Oh Abba in Heaven

Forgive me for every form of leaven

Of which I’ve partaken

I’ve been SORELY mistaken!

Thank you for ‘dis moment in which I’ve AWAKENED

To ‘da TRUTH

About YOU!

To the Path of true LIFE I now hasten

Carrying my Living Water filled basin

Emptiness, oh basin of my spirit

You no longer need to fear it

Echoes of religion, may I never again draw near it!

For the glories of Heaven, I now hear it!

I boldly proclaim

‘Dat I’ve found NEW LIFE in Yeshua's name 

Now is ‘da time

For me to end ‘dis rhyme

Now it’s YOUR turn

To spit ‘da fire ‘dat burns

In you

But remember, it must first burn YOU!



Step to 'da mic

Show 'em what cha got

Let Yah's breath 

Flow through your wind pipe

Ready or not

Let's go!

It's not even what

But WHO ya' know

So, let it FLOW!
