Testo Jesus Walks - Kanye West
Testo della canzone Jesus Walks (Kanye West), tratta dall'album The College Dropout
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
Where wrestlers 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
Getting choked by 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? 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 'til November, I got packs to move
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 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 nothing 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
To the hustlers, killers, murderers, drug dealers
Even the strippers (Jesus walks with them)
To the victims of welfare, feel we living in hell here
Hell yeah (Jesus walks with them)
Now hear ye, hear ye, wanna 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
But 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, dawg, radio needs this
They say you can rap about anything except for Jesus
That means guns, sex, lies, video tape
But if I talk about God my record won't get played, huh?
Well if this take away from my spins
Which will probably take away from my ends
Then I hope it take away from my sins
And bring the day that I dream about
Next time I'm in the club everybody screaming out
God show me the way because the devil's tryna break me down
