Lyrics : |
| [00:03.90] |
|
| [00:10.30] |
Yo, We at war |
| [00:16.16] |
We at war with terrorism, |
| [00:30.88] |
racism but most of all we at war with ourselves |
| [00:33.06] |
(Jesus Walks) |
| [00:33.43] |
God show me the way because the Devil trying to break me down |
| [00:33.69](Jesus Walks with me) with me with me with me [fades] |
|
| [00:33.96] |
|
| [00:34.29] |
You know what the Midwest is? |
| [00:35.65] |
Young & Restless |
| [00:36.98] |
Where restless Niggaz might snatch your necklace |
| [00:39.66] |
And next these Niggaz might jack your Lexus |
| [00:41.87] |
Somebody tell these Niggaz who Kanye West is |
| [00:43.94] |
I walk through the valley of Chi where death is |
| [00:46.85] |
Top floor the view alone will leave you breathless Uhhhh! |
| [00:50.03] |
Try to catch it Uhhhh! It's kinda hard hard |
| [00:52.61] |
Getting choked by the detectives yeah yeah now check the method |
| [00:54.99] |
They be asking us questions, harass and arrest us |
| [00:57.69] |
Saying "we eat pieces of shit like you for breakfast" |
| [01:00.44] |
Huh? Yall eat pieces of shit? What's the basis? |
| [01:03.18] |
We ain't going nowhere but got suits and cases |
| [01:05.67] |
A trunk full of coke rental car from Avis |
| [01:08.36] |
My momma used to say only Jesus can save us |
| [01:11.16] |
Well momma I know I act a fool |
| [01:13.85] |
But I'll be gone til November I got packs to move I Hope |
| [01:17.02] |
|

(Jesus Walks) |
| [01:18.99] |
God show me the way because the Devil trying to break me down |
| [01:22.12] |
(Jesus Walks with me) |
| [01:24.76] |
The only thing that I pray is that me feet don't fail me now |
| [01:27.71] |
(Jesus Walks) |
| [01:29.89] |
And I don't think there is nothing I can do now to right my wrongs |
| [01:33.00] |
(Jesus Walks with me) |
| [01:35.26] |
I want to talk to God but I'm afraid because we ain't spoke in so long |
| [01:38.86] |
(Jesus Walks) |
| [01:40.91] |
God show me the way because the Devil trying to break me down |
| [01:43.88] |
(Jesus Walks with me) |
| [01:46.32] |
The only thing that I pray is that me feet don't fail me now |
| [01:49.51] |
(Jesus Walks) |
| [01:51.87] |
And I don't think there is nothing I can do now to right my wrongs |
| [01:55.01] |
(Jesus Walks with me) |
| [01:57.72] |
I want to talk to God but I'm afraid because we ain't spoke in so long |
| [02:00.50] |
|
| [02:11.57] |
To the hustlas, killers, murderers, drug dealers even the strippers |
| [02:15.26] |
To the victims of Welfare for we living in hell here hell yeah |
| [02:22.18] |
Now hear ye hear ye want to see Thee more clearly |
| [02:25.49] |
I know he hear me when my feet get weary |
| [02:27.90] |
Cuz we're the almost nearly extinct |
| [02:30.47] |
We rappers are role models we rap we don't think |
| [02:33.22] |
I ain't here to argue about his facial features |
| [02:36.00] |
Or here to convert atheists into believers |
| [02:38.62] |
I'm just trying to say the way school need teachers |
| [02:41.37] |
The way Kathie Lee needed Regis that's the way yall need Jesus |
| [02:44.24] |
So here go my single dog radio needs this |
| [02:46.98] |
They say you can rap about anything except for Jesus |
| [02:49.61] |
That means guns, sex, lies, video tapes |
| [02:52.30] |
But if I talk about God my record won't get played Huh? |
| [02:56.08] |
Well let this take away from my spins |
| [02:58.14] |
Which will probably take away from my ends |
| [03:00.14] |
Then I hope this take away from my sins |
| [03:02.00] |
And bring the day that I'm dreaming about |
| [03:03.82] |
Next time I'm in the club everybody screaming out |
| [03:06.16] |
|
| [03:06.84] |
(Jesus Walks) |
| [03:08.53] |
God show me the way because the devil trying to break me down |
| [03:11.66] |
(Jesus Walks) |
| [03:13.61] |
The only thing that I pray is that me feet don't fail me now |
| [03:17.98] |
(Jesus Walks) |
| [03:20.01] |
And I don't think there is nothing I can do now to right my wrongs |
| [03:23.37] |
(Jesus Walks with me) |
| [03:25.41] |
I want to talk to God but I'm afraid because we ain't spoke in so long |
| [03:17.06] |
|
| [03:30.02] |
