[01:13.88] God show me the way because the Devil's trying to break me down
[01:16.78]
[01:19.28] The only thing that I pray is that my feet don't fail me now
[01:24.60] And I don't think there's nothin' I could do now to right my wrongs
[01:30.33] I wanna talk to God but I'm afraid 'cause we ain't spoke in so long
[01:35.77] God show me the way because the Devil's trying to break me down
[01:41.26] The only thing that I pray is that my feet don't fail me now

[01:49.91]
[01:52.11] I wanna talk to God but I'm afraid 'cause we ain't spoke in so long
[01:57.74] So long
[02:00.42] So long
[02:02.85]

[02:10.61] (Jesus walks for them)
[02:12.05] To the victims of welfare for we livin' in Hell here, hell yeah

[02:23.35] 'Cause we're the almost nearly extinct
[02:26.16] We rappers is role models, we rap, we don't think
[02:28.91] I ain't here to argue about his facial features
[02:31.78] Or here to convert atheists into believers
[02:34.57] I'm just tryna say the way school need teachers
[02:36.79] The way Kathie Lee needed Regis, that's the way I need Jesus
[02:39.91] So here go my single dog, radio needs this
[02:42.41] They say you can rap about anything except for Jesus
[02:45.42] That means guns, sex, lies, videotape
[02:47.89] But if I talk about God my record won't get played, huh?
[02:51.56] Well if this take away from my spins
[02:53.72] Which'll probably take away from my ends
[02:55.63] Then I hope it take away from my sins
[02:57.55] And bring the day that I'm dreamin' about
