Jesus Walks

We at war

We at war with terrorism, racism

But most of all, we at war with ourselves

Jesus, walk

God show me the way because the Devil's tryna break me down

Jesus, walk with me

You know what the Midwest is? Young and restless

Where restless-, might snatch your necklace (****)

And next these-, might jack your Lexus (****)

Somebody tell these-, who Kanye West is (****)

I walk through the valley of the Chi where death is

Top floor, the view alone will leave you breathless

Try to catch it, it's kinda hard (Huh, huh)

Getting choked by detectives, yeah, yeah, now check the method

They be askin' us questions, harass and arrest us

Sayin', "We eat pieces of shit like you for breakfast"

Huh? Y'all 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 mama used to say only Jesus can save us

Well, mama, I know I act a fool

But I'll be gone till November, I got packs to move, I hope

Jesus, walk

God show me the way because the Devil's tryna break me down

Jesus, walk with me

The only thing that I pray is that my feet don't fail me now

Jesus, walk

And I don't think there's nothin' I can do now to right my wrongs

Jesus, walk with me

I wanna talk to God but I'm afraid 'cause 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 nothin' I can do now to right my wrongs

I wanna talk to God but I'm afraid 'cause we ain't spoke in so long

So long, so long

Jesus, walk with me (Uh)

To the hustlers, killers, murderers, drug dealers, even the scrippers (Jesus walks with them)

To the victims of welfare, feel we livin' in Hell here, hell yeah (Jesus walks with them)

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 go my single, dog, radio needs this

They say you can rap about anything except for Jesus

That means guns, sex, lies, videotape

But if I talk about God, my record won't get played, huh?

Well, if this take away from my spins

Which'll probably take away from my ends

Then I hope it take away from my sins

And bring the day that I'm dreamin' 'bout

Next time I'm in the club, everybody screamin' out

Jesus, walk

God show me the way because the Devil's tryna break me down

Jesus, walk with me

The only thing that I pray is that my feet don't fail me now
