2013 i will be graduating with my Masters degree with Distinction (in an area that I had no formal background in whatsoever). ISN'T GOD GREAT? Thank You LORD GOD, you got me there, you brought me through it ALL. GO HARD for your education, represent Saints! The Kingdom of Heaven is a Kingdom of Excellence!!! WE BEAT THEM ODDS!
great job tera! so am i. 6 months ago i was on the streets, rebelling against the lord, addicted to meth, until 1 day the lord showed me that i was never going to be the man i truly was supposed to be! A strong snowboarder, a positive influence on a broken culture, and a succesful entrepreneur. now on my girlfriends birthday next week, i will be 6 months clean. and since then i have held a steady job for 3 months, started a successful clothing company, and am getting prepared to marry the girl of my dreams! congrats tera! We beat the odds!
Congradulations, we beat them odds! Amen to that! I was one phone call away from becoming a drug addict, but God stepped in and said, "Nope!" I think every day on the life that I'm leading now, and how much better it is than the life I easily could have had instead, and I thank Him.
Everybody Chill. Lecrae is spreading the word. You cant put him down because that's what God is calling him to do, quit putting him down. I admire that for him trying to spread the word to non Christian rappers. That's awesome
I had asked God to allow me to graduate from college in 4yrs. and cum laude. The enemy didn't like it and he did everything he could to stop me from crossing that stage. It even looked like he'd won at one point. But God made sure I got the victory. I graduated on time. THEN I thought I didn't have cum laude because it wasn't announced at graduation, but when I got my diploma I saw cum laude written in cursive letters on the front of it. God gave me EVERYTHING I asked Him for. Thank you LORD!!!
Never judge a book by its cover..... as Christians we often neglect getting to know someone before judging them. Congratulations to all the people out there who beat the odds.
I dropped out of high school to help my family and didn't think I would ever end up going after any of my dreams. I got heavy into weed and drinking, fighting and all kinds of stuff that I regret. It took me till I was 26 to get my life together. Yet here I am today and I am going to college to be a teacher and help kids not end up like I was and how bad off I was. #IBeatThemOdds
I can also say I survived the things that would have destroyed me and my family but I met Jesus and he changed my story and restored my family and friends this Season of trials and tribulation if I must be honest it was not an easy journey but Round of applause...I made it 😢
Nah, bro, it's celebrating the fact this year's graduates were able to use the mind and intellect God gave them to get their education and disprove all the odds and statistics that said they wouldn't. That is most definitely something to celebrate and thank God for.
I just found out I'm graduating high school today, you have no clue how proud of my self right now. And this song makes me tear up even more!!!!!!!!! THANK YOU JESUS!
Today I just hit 23 years old and I STILL haven't graduated from college. I'm not even in school but you know what? Even though I haven't graduated from college academically I have graduated from spirituality. God has been giving me test of faith and patience and I have been passing with flying colors. Now my faith and patience is beyond measurable. Round of applause!
For the people that disliked this for it being Christian rap don't realize it music to appeal to everyone not just Christians. So for the 37 who disliked this may God work on you to accept him and his word. Praise Jesus
I graduated yesterday with my senior class of 2018! Mazel tov to my classmates and friends! Thank you Jesus, I beat the odds with Your strength! Graduated from bitterness two weeks ago! Yeshua Hamashiah ben Yehova Rapha!
Diagnosed with (slight) depression when I was in fifth grade. Got picked on constantly. Didn't think I had a purpose. I had suicidal thoughts for the next year. My family and I only went to ONE therapy session. I told myself to toughen up. And I acted like I was okay. But I inside I was broken. Now entering highschool, I find my worth in Christ. And I learn to grow stronger in him every day and forgive. ROUND OF APPLAUSE
I was locked up the entire second semester of my junior year. Got Jesus, came home, got baptized, went back to school (reluctantly), worked hard, and graduated with my class. Now I'm going to college this fall and Lecrae and the Reach movement keeps me motivated. ROUND OF APPLAUSE
Man no matter how many people call out foul on Crae, there is ABSOLUTE TRUTH to most of what he raps. God is using him in his imperfection...deal with it. The only prefect man used was our Savior. All of us our flawed, and thank the Lord for his grace.
They said lecrae is a secular Gospel rap but whatever it takes to win souls for the kingdom is all that matters and you can't judge nobody unless you christ he's the only one that knows our heart
Love this song cant wait to graduate, despite the odds. Hebrews 12:2 We do this by keeping our eyes on Jesus, the champion who initiates and perfects our faith. Because of the joy awaiting him, he endured the cross, disregarding its shame. Now he is seated in the place of honor beside God's throne.
I am in recovery and a Peer Advocate for Overdose patients in the Emergency Department. I see sad and broken all the time. But, standing with my recovery community is so powerful. This song makes me feel like its an anthem. No Volume loud enough to shout this! Thank GOD we made it! The Grace of a King! Clean blood cleaned my dirty blood!
I've heard this song a few times on the Pandora NF Channel... but today I really listened to the words. I am so proud of this artist and what he has accomplished! Totally Inspired! ♡
playing this at our 5 year high school reuinion whether my class likes it or not! haha 116 ... so blessed to have people producing positive Gospel music...
Lacrae and all the 116 group , you guys make me feel like god has planned something special for me in my life and to do great things to try and spread the word
dedicated to my hometown New Orleans..... :) Much love to God, Lacrae and New Orleans Forever.....~Hurricane Survivors forever~ Round of Applause, Congradulations we beat the odds!!
I love the fact that Lecrae's beats go hard! Every time I ask people why they listen to some music, I usually get because of the beat. Well if they listen to this beat, I pray that the message sinks in as well.
I probably too emotional but I felt someone when he said, "now she graduated from college, scratch that- graduated with honors! little man got ah lil cap and gown, look at him matching his momma!" Round of applause to all those that beat the odds! Nuff respect for Lecrae tho!
I think sometimes that Lecrae and all those guys do tracks were they not throwing God in peoples faces 24/7 because its like the music is also a tool to witness, and as long as he not saying nothing crazy and he don't stray to the point were you can't tell if he doing Gospel rap or worldy rap no more I think its aight. I hope i get to rap with these cats for the Lord one day!
This has got to be my favorite song from Lecrae by far! The great thing about this song is that I can play it for many of my friends who don't listen to Christian hip hop. This has that trap sound that they always want but with a positive message. It's songs like these that will bring people from the secular world to show them what's good with Jesus Christ.
I have been struggling with depression for like 5 years now, and on top of that I'm a college kid too. Going to school and dealing with my struggle is not easy and now I found out that I'm almost ready to transfer out. God has never left me.. :)
Really awesome song! Glad that Lecrae is getting exposure on BET! Praying more Christian Rap and Music will be jammed for all to hear the bold and unashamed message of the gospel of Christ, the power, love, grace, and mercy of God that cleanses us with Jesus blood and makes us new creation in Christ!
I think riches are subjective, I'm lower middle class, got free health care, bought my own car, pay my own insurance, and got to pay for college this year. Yeah, I'm white, I think anyone who works hard and defeats some levels of laziness and class divisions can relate to this song! Go Lecrae!
I struggled in school and failed 8th grade due to undiagnosed ADHD. Since I was homeschooled, my mom decided I was just burnt out and needed a long break from school.... Was having family troubles, so she never started my school back up. After a couple years I decided to take matters into my own hands, and I studied on my own. Not well, because again... ADHD. But I did my best. After I finished "11th grade", I had no idea where to go, so I started taking GED classes for my "12th grade" so that I could graduate officially. Got my GED in 2014. Struggled after that to find direction or do much of anything productive, because, again.... ADHD. After 4 or so years, in 2018 I got fed up with struggling every day to do even simple tasks. One of my friends helped me find a mental health clinic and I was finally diagnosed with ADHD, anxiety, and depression. I also went to group therapy, had a case worker, and a therapist, which all helped me establish a routine and finally, FINALLY get on the ball. I got a reliable job in 2019. I've had this job for almost exactly 3 years now, and I'm doing very well there, they appreciate my reliability and work ethic. #IBeatThemOdds
This track was a good response to all these hype awards and corney rappers that have the wrong message about fame. Good job L, as a matta of fact, great job. Praise God!

Graduated from college in April, despite what my professor said I passed the class and am on my way to living the life God has for me. Amen.
Congradulations, we beat them odds! Amen to that! I was one phone call away from becoming a drug addict, but God stepped in and said, "Nope!" I think every day on the life that I'm leading now, and how much better it is than the life I easily could have had instead, and I thank Him.

I have been struggling with depression for like 5 years now, and on top of that I'm a college kid too. Going to school and dealing with my struggle is not easy and now I found out that I'm almost ready to transfer out. God has never left me.. :)

What about rich people period? Let's not label a race.
I think riches are subjective, I'm lower middle class, got free health care, bought my own car, pay my own insurance, and got to pay for college this year. Yeah, I'm white, I think anyone who works hard and defeats some levels of laziness and class divisions can relate to this song! Go Lecrae!
Whoever produced this beat absolutely killed it! Lecrae also killed his verses and hook! Amazing song! I love the style!
