Lyrics:
An April Saturday, seems like yesterday
Brother Andy's running down the aisle
You can tell by the gaze on his new wife's face
It's gonna be Andy's
got the dizzoe? Then meet me by the sizzoe
Me and Big Kirk, Uncle Nut, by a fizzoe
D and Hoy posted up by the Nolia (ya heard)
See Jeeko and Mutsi, they
say that John was a Baptist,
Some folks say he was a Jew,
But your holy scripture tells you
That he was a preacher too.
Daniel was a Bible hero,
and lies, and
We are in the rain shadow now.
Daddy always told me, the dark is just the shade,
Right before the light comes in, we'll eat the meal that's
men
But damn that trickery, it got the best of me
I’m gonna tear it down and start again
Grand-daddy was a preacher
Built that church from the sand
had a curse of wandering
Like there was no aim to their living
Raised by a single mom who was damaged
My dad landed in nightclubs at age 11
Playing
to me, you jus a ghost
You jus a lame, hear what I'm saying
By definition I'm omnipresent Navajo of the blizzard she pose and I picture
(Damn)
This
be a thief, she locked the doors when I was walking by
They must be whores 'cause the master rapes them and leaves
The child
So dead beat daddy was
Where we go from here, if I leave the block
A little money fine but I need a lot
Take a preachers route but
Don't lie to people
I ain't never seen
and bad news (uh, uh)
Leaches, coffins, reapers often visit for the funeral (uh, uh)
Teachers lost me, preachers lost me, all I wanted was the truth (uh,
Yeah they raised that horse to be a jumper
He was owned by a Midwest bible thumper
His preacher was a Louisiana drummer
Took all winter to get
a preacher lyin
Sayin God don't love me if I don't tithe
I need real help in a real season
I need real faith in a real Jesus
I'm hanging on by a thread though
said it was apparent I'd be a preacher
But I thank God that I'm a poet
See, I stay devoted
Spoken word for me is more than Sunday mornings, Wednesday
And with the Lord by my side, it don't matter what the call of life
Cause let me in, cause I was going for the ride
Aint blind, aint gotta sin to believe it
my religion why don't you guess it
Chorus (4x)
This song was inspired by all you so-called saved motherfuckers out there
The ones that's backsliding
Date A Jew
There was one thing in this world my momma said you gotta - date a Jew, date a Jew
There was one thing in this world her daddy said not
Daddies were daddies and mamas were saints
What preachers were preaching
You could take to the bank
Kids played outside
Up until it turned dark
show you what that work do
I was fucking on the preacher's daughter
Pray to God, Pimping hard in my church shoes
We was thugging all night with no
as you done dey tensh
All of this pressure is gonna put you in a mess
I guess I should have listened to my friends
But was carried away by my goals talking
I had a dream last night I was cast into Hell by a jealous God
The Devil walked up and said, "You don't need no lightning rod
It hardly ever rains
just as black as my cousin Keisha
I'm biracial so bye Felicia
Praise Black Jesus now call the preacher
Maybe Jesus was black
Maybe Jesus had dreads
Road where mama and daddy were raised
On GOD faith and family is where their foundations were laid
Where they lived off the land everything, they had was
killed her kid somehow.
A preacher stole some money from the church, over 50k. Another preacher killed by side chick around 8 today.
Cops surrounded around
can't rock with the kid
See my rocks on gliss flip flop on the whip
Why would I be broke when Jesus owns all of this
My daddy is rich but not just in
