[Intro]
Ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh

[Pre-Chorus]
I ain't got sleep (I ain't got sleep)
I ain't got rest (I ain't got rest)
I serve God (I serve God)
Boy, don't test me (Hoo)
Cross on my chest (Cross on my chest)
Cross on my chest (Cross on my chest)
Cross on my back (Cross on my back)
Walkin' out the flesh (Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom)

[Chorus]
Pick up your cross and walk (Yeah)
Pick up your cross and walk (Yeah)
Pick up your cross and walk (Yeah)
Pick up your cross and walk
Pick up your cross and walk (Yeah)
Pick up your cross and walk (Yeah)
Pick up your cross and walk (Yeah)
Pick up your cross and walk

[Verse 1]
He told me to pick it up (Pick it up)
Pick it up, pick it up, pick it up, pick it up (Yeah)
Lord God, I ain't big enough (What?)
All of this weight make it harder to get it up (Yeah)
Don't mean that I'm giving up (What?)
Mama told me not to settle for quittin' stuff (She did)
I tried all the liquor stuff (Huh?)
Problems still there, so there ain't no lit enough
(Huh, huh, huh, huh)
I tried everything
The promethazine would mess up my dreams
Got harder to sleep, then harder to see
Who lives in a pineapple under the sea
My neck turning green and wanted the beef (Whoa)
Got up in they grill, but talkin' was cheap
My life needed order so go take a seat (Go)
Who made a mess? (Who?)
Who say, who say, who say, who say? (Who say?)
God, I'ma do what You say, You say
Gone from the pack, like "Who they? Who they?" (Who they?)
Up like a Tuesday (Tuesday)
Hooray, hooray, hooray, hooray (Hooray)
I done been up for two days (I done been)
[Pre-Chorus]
I ain't got sleep (I ain't got sleep)
I ain't got rest (I ain't got rest)
I serve God (I serve God)
Boy, don't test me (Hoo)
Cross on my chest (Cross on my chest)
Cross on my chest (Cross on my chest)
Cross on my back (Cross on my back)
Walkin' out the flesh (Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom)

[Chorus]
Pick up your cross and walk (Yeah)
Pick up your cross and walk (Yeah)
Pick up your cross and walk (Yeah)
Pick up your cross and walk
Pick up your cross and walk (Yeah)
Pick up your cross and walk (Yeah)
Pick up your cross and walk (Yeah)
Pick up your cross and walk

[Verse 2]
He took the whip to the back (Facts)
I put the whip out the back (Oh my goodness)
I put the whip on the road (Facts)
He paid the price for the tow (Oh, wow)
Take off, let's switch up the mode, sport
Walk at the pace of the Rolls Royce
Came for His fee, I don't got no choice
But really I do (Aye)
I told Him "I do" to a new way of living, repented the sin, it got so expensive (Aye)
Wasn't a friend to the Father, I pushed Him away and told Him to keep it pimpin' (Aye)
Wrestled for hours, you see me limping
The beginning, a race that you see me winning (Aye)
How? Really wanna figure how, so I give You all the power
[Outro]
Lift His name up (Wait)
This ain't double dutch (Wait)
Two feet in (Wait)
Double knuckle up (Wait)
Pick up cross-- (Huh, huh)
Pick that cross up
I'm on God's team
Don't get crossed up
