Yo, 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, with me, with me, with me, with me)
Yeah, uh
You know what the Midwest is?
Young and restless
Where restless (niggas) might snatch your necklace
And next, these (niggas) might jack your Lexus
Somebody tell these (niggas) who Kanye West is
I walk through the valley of Chi where death is
Top floor, the view alone will leave you breathless
Try to catch it, it's kinda hard
Gettin' 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 goin' 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, 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 is nothin' I can do now to right my wrongs
(Jesus, walk with me)
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 nothin' I can do now to right my wrongs
I want to talk to God, but I'm afraid 'cause we ain't spoke in so long, so long
So long
(Jesus, walk with me)
To the hustlers, killers, murderers, drug dealers, even the strippers
(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 tryin' to 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 said 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'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 tryna break me down
(Jesus, walk with me, with me, with me)
The only thing that I pray is that my feet don't fail me now
