We at war We at war with terrorism, racism, and most of all we at war with ourselves
God show me the way because the Devil trying to break me down
You know what the Midwest is? Young & Restless Where restless (Niggas) might snatch your necklace And next these (Niggas) might jack your Lexus
Somebody tell these (Niggas) who Kanye West is I walk through the valley of the shadow of death is Top floor the view alone will leave you breathless Try to catch it It's kinda hard hard Getting choked by the detectives yeah yeah now check the method
They be asking us questions, harass and arrest us Saying "we eat pieces of shit like you for breakfast" Huh? Yall eat pieces of shit? What's the basis?
We ain't going nowhere but got suits and cases A trunk full of coke rental car from Avis
My momma used to say only Jesus can save us Well momma I know I act a fool
But I'll be gone 'til November I got packs to move I Hope
(**) God show me the way because the Devil trying to break me down
The only thing that that I pray is that my feet don't fail me now
And I don't think there is nothing I can do now to right my wrongs
I want to talk to God but I'm afraid because we ain't spoke in so long
To the hustlers, killers, murderers, drug dealers even the strippers
To the victims of Welfare for we living in hell here hell yeah
Now hear ye hear ye want to see Thee more clearly
I know he hear me when my feet get weary Cause we're the almost nearly extinct
We rappers are role models we rap we don't think
I ain't here to argue about his facial features, But here to convert atheists into believers
I'm just trying to say the way school need teachers The way Kathie Lee needed Regis that's the way I need Jesus So here go my single dog radio needs this
They say you can rap about anything except for Jesus That means guns, sex, lies, video tapes But if I talk about God my record won't get played Huh?
Well let this take away from my spins Which will probably take away from my ends
Then I hope this take away from my sins And bring the day that I'm dreaming about
Next time I'm in the club everybody screaming out
(**)
