Xandria Cross - Take Your Medicine (CHH)

Xandria Cross - Take Your Medicine
Xandria Cross has released her latest Christian Hip Hop (CHH) track called Take Your Medicine.

Xandria is a 19-year-old from Knoxville, Tennessee. She has been writing songs for as long as she can remember. She graduated early from high school at the age of 16, in order to pursue a career as a full-time artist. Xandria says, “Music transcends languages. It’s timeless, it’s emotion, it’s pain and joy and love. It’s so special, and to be able to bring a new song into the world, that is totally unique and unlike anything else, inspires me. Music is a coping mechanism for so many, and I just want to be able to use my music to spread healthy, uplifting, encouraging messages. If I can’t be with people, to help and talk with them in person, it’s my hope that my music can lift them up in my absence.

In 2020 & 2021, Xandria embarked on a 20 city, 7000-mile national tour with the Extreme Tour. In 2019, Xandria was invited to perform at the Thunder Tent stage at the Bonnaroo Music Festival.

Take Your Medicine is a song about the crazy world that we are living in. It makes you ponder on the question: "What's the cure?" Xandria's answer to this question is clear and simple: "I thank God and my parents for the way they made me. Been beside me day and night through all the crazy. But my biggest thanks to JC, Cuz he saved me!"


LYRICS "Take Your Medicine": 

You’re so Ill take your medicine
In worse shape than the US debt is in 
Up so high so I jettison
Shed some light like I’m Edison
Just hold tight gimme stacka paper and a pen
Coming in like Kylo Ren
Kinda reckless kinda zen
Messed up too I can’t condemn
See the rules and I try to bend em
Y’all sleeping like stuck in R.E.M.
In a daze everyday till you hit the end
Better set your alarms while I said the trends
You and your friends busy straight playing pretend
If this is a game sorry but I transcend
On another level and it’s about time to ascend
Ain’t got time for your sin out here trying to win 
you can join me but don’t drag me back where I’ve been
No no no no
Cuz I ain’t going back there nah

All these crazy people out here loud can’t tell me nothing
I don’t listen ain’t because I’m proud
Cuz devils cunning
When they come around and ask me how
I say I’m gunning
In my circle I don’t stick around 
It’s cause I’m running (running)

Running the race
Chasing the faith
Yeah I’m kicking fear in the face
Pick up the pace
Path I picked a dangerous chase
Demons screaming block em out 
Can’t let em faze me
Satan call me 
hang up tell him not today please
Fortune tellers back off 
Say my futures hazy
You don’t know a thing hon
Heaven got the gravy
Everyone around me 
Saying I’m so wavy
Guess the army I’m in
Lil like the navy
Puttin in my time quiet
Nah your girl ain’t lazy
I thank God and my parents 
For the way they made me
Been beside me day and night
Through all the crazy
But my biggest thanks to JC
Cuz he saved me

I’d a been in an asylum
If he hadn’t come to see me
I can get a lil lost in my own mind
He brought relief 
Prescribed some good ole peace and quiet and he called for my release
All the haters gawking “my oh my has she got a disease?”

If he hadn’t brought me back to life by now I’d be deceased
If you preying on me stop I swear I won’t switch my allegiance 
Yeah you talk the talk a lot I guess I’ll call ya General Grievous
Sorry you ain’t got the force don’t see why you got a grievance

Bye bye good riddance
Have fun counting all your blue ribbons
Feeling free now I got my acquittance 
Done dealing with all these villains, villains, villains

With all these villains with all these villains with all these villains

"He Knew" by Krystal Dawn Land: The Cost Christ Chose Before the Cradle

Jesus knew everything, and He came anyway! Let’s go back to the birth of Jesus, a newborn lying in the manger, part of a larger plan and fully aware of where His path would end before He came to earth. Krystal Dawn Land’s song, “He Knew”, opens with a question that stops you cold, especially if you consider how you would respond: “What if He knew? What if He saw? What if He knew the pain He’d face to give it all?” This isn’t idle speculation. The song walks through the full arc of Jesus’ story, “from the cradle to the cross” , and insists that nothing that happened caught Him off guard. He saw the betrayal coming. He saw the doubt, the walking away, “some would not believe, some would walk away.” And still, as Krystal sings, “He did… He knew all along. He still came… to right every wrong.” That kind of foreknowledge changes how we read Isaiah 53:3–5, where the prophet describes the Messiah as “despised and rejected by men, a man of sorrows.” Jesus wasn’t ambushed by suffering. He wal...

"Hallelujah Anyway" by Zach Garrett: Praise That Doesn't Wait for the Storm to Pass

What if worship doesn’t require having answers? Storm clouds hide the stars. The road stretches on with no map and no end in sight. That’s the world Zach Garrett describes in the opening lines of “Hallelujah Anyway,” and if you’ve walked through a season of loss or confusion, you already recognize the setting. Zach wrote this song from inside real darkness, in his case, a stretch of loss, hurt, and unanswered questions that didn’t resolve on his timeline. Zach’s message is that we don’t need to wait for clarity before we choose to worship. Like Zach, we may need to make that choice daily, sometimes hourly, possibly even through gritted teeth. The bridge describes a common misconception: “I used to think that faith meant having all the answers, that doubt was just a sign I wasn’t strong enough to stand.” How many of us carry that same lie? We assume that real faith looks certain, steady, unshaken. We get confused when it isn’t! Zach flips the definition of faith: “Maybe trusting You me...

"Consider the Lilies" by Madison Earl: A Gentle Call to Trade Worry for Trust

Who carries your worries when they feel too heavy? Arizona worship leader Madison Earl wrote “Consider the Lilies” for anyone who has lain awake worrying about tomorrow’s problems. It is the third of four original songs she plans to release in 2026. The message for this song is inspired by Matthew 6:26–34. Madison’s hope is that listeners remember that “they don’t have to carry everything on their own.” The chorus asks the questions we all ask. “What will we eat? What will we drink? What will we wear?” Your questions may also be about an increase in rent, unpaid bills, test results, a difficult boss, a wayward child, and more… all of those questions fit. Then comes the answer: “He’s always there.” Jesus made the same point when He was sitting on a hillside. He told his listeners, “Look at the birds of the air: they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them.” Then he asked, “Are you not of more value than they?” Ask yourself that same questio...
