If I had to play God for a day
I would open up the gates, let the world see my face
Remove all doubt from the ones without the faith
And put them on the path of the straight
A safe place, for the young to come outside, they want to play
I let their mamas know that they okay
And when y'all pray, I'll respond so you all can see a sign
And answer every pray one at a time
If I'm God, huh
All the stabbings and the wars would come to cease
My whole entire hood would be at peace
No more beef
And you could sleep without the fears of being woke
By the sounds of sirens, screams of people being smoked
No more dope, you won't need it
You'll be cured of all diseases
Your whole entire life has been deleted
Please forgive me, I was dreaming
And rudely interrupted by the demons
Laughed at the picture I was seeing on the ceiling
Who listens when we pray?
Who pulls the strings of the world as we struggle today?
Will you show your face?
I don't wanna wait, wait, wait 'til I die
Wait, wait, wait for my eyes to close
Smile on your child so he knows
God has a face
Just imagine if the devil had a day
If God had took a break and walked away
Would you feel safe?
If everything you loved turned into hate
Will the dark angel's evil show you grace?
Only to be eaten by a snake
One life, one mistake
Be careful of the choices that you make
'Cause one day, you'll be standing on your feet and then the next
You're underneath the sheet greeting death
I wonder when I sleep, is he there sitting on my chest, stealing breath
Shortening my days even less?
Lost souls never rest
A killer walks the streets seeking flesh
An adolescent hangs, she's depressed
A priest who confessed
A judged typing a nigga in a text
Your honor, what the fuck did you expect?
A father kills his son
Look at life, it's a mess
Just imagine what would happen if the Lord up and left
Who listens when we pray?
Who pulls the strings of the world as we struggle today?
Will you show your face?
I don't wanna wait, wait, wait 'til I die
Wait, wait, wait for my eyes to close
Smile on your child so he knows
God has a face
When all that you believed in was a lie
Are you willing to accept it when you find out?
Or try to reason with yourself that's what it is, when it's not
And all the whole while it's been a plot
To poison our minds and leave us blind to the fact
That if they keep us in the dark on how they act
We'll react all surprised and not realize that
This shit a trap
Thought religion was the answer, but the answer wasn't that
The church and these politics, they all full of crap
And it's a shame, but that's who we're blaming, it's for the scratch
So I won't knock it, I'm tryna to put a black card in my wallet
But some dollars in my pocket ain't the topic
Y'all need to stop it
This is just crazy, these little babies ticking time bombs
Walking 'round the lunchrooms pulling guns
If the mama and the daddy took the time to raise their son
Then the sister wouldn't be a mom before she twenty-one, huh
Who listens when we pray?
Who pulls the strings of the world as we struggle today?
Will you show your face?
I don't wanna wait, wait, wait 'til I die
Wait, wait, wait for my eyes to close
Smile on your child so he knows
God has a face
God has a face
God has a face
