Yo !

We at war

We at war

with terrorism

Racism

but most of all

We at war

with ourselves

God show me the way

because the devil's

tryna break me down

You know what the

midwest is?

young and restless

we're restless

Might snatch

your necklace

and next these

might jack your Lexus

Somebody tell these

who Kanye West is

I walk through the valley

ofthe shadow

where death is

Top floor the view alone'll

leave you breathless

uhh!

try to catch it

uhh!

It's kinda hard

getting choked by

detectives yeah yeah

now check the method

They be asking us

questions, harass and

arrest us, saying we

eat pieces of s**t like

you for breakfast huh

Y'all eat pieces of s**t

now what's the basis

we ain't going nowhere

but got suits and cases

A trunk full of c**e

rental car from Avis

my Momma used to say

only Jesus can save us

well Momma

I know I act the fool

but I'll be gone

till November

I got packs to move

I hope

God show me the way

because the devil's

tryna break me down

The only thing that I pray

is that my feet

don't fail me now

And I don't think

there's 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

God show me the way

because the Devil's

tryna break me down

The only thing that I pray

is that my feet

don't fail me now

And I don't think

there's 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

So long

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 is role models

we rap we don't think

I ain't here to argue

about his facial features

or here to convert atheists

into believers

I'm just tryna say the way

school need teachers

the way Kathie Lee

needed Regis that's

the way I need Jesus

So here goes my single

dog radio needs this

they say you can rap

about anything

except for Jesus

That means guns, s*x

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

God show me the way

because the devil's

tryna break me down

The only thing that I pray

is that my feet

don't fail me now
