“Last Days”
Da Key
From the CD Convicted (2010)

Houston-born author and Christian hip hop artist Reginald “Da Key” Blanks has been “through the hell gates,” and he tells his story in “Last Days.” It’s a piece about the end of days that, as he relates, is coming sooner than you think. “Last Days” is also a metaphor for Da Key’s own life that was spiraling downward until Jesus gave him a second chance.
That is, when presented with the opportunity to move to a higher plane, the last thing Da Key wanted was to be left out of the number. He raps to serious, thudding chords that he turned his life around and doesn’t regret it because “we in Revelations…I want out of this plantation.”

What an awesome man of God. From the time I met you Reginald (DaKey) I thanked God for giving me the opportunity that He allowed me to meet a true “man of God”. Keep on!!!
Luv in Christ, sara
