Jesus Walks lyrics

Artist  : Kanye West 
Song : Jesus Walks
 


Yo, We at war
We at war with terrorism, racism
but most of all we at war with ourselves
(Jesus
Walks)
God show me the way because the Devil
trying to break me down
(Jesus Walks with me)
with me with me with me [fades]

You know
what the Midwest is?
Young & Restless
Where
restless Niggaz might snatch your necklace
And
next these Niggaz might jack your
Lexus
Somebody tell these Niggaz who Kanye
West is
I walk through the valley of Chi where
death is
Top floor the view alone will leave
you breathless Uhhhh!
Try to catch it Uhhhh!
It's kinda hard hard
Getting choked by the
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? Yall 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 momma used to say only
Jesus can save us
Well momma I know I act a
fool
But I'll be gone til November I got packs
to move I Hope

[HOOK x2]
(Jesus
Walks)
God show me the way because the Devil
trying to break me down
(Jesus Walks with
me)
The only thing that I pray is that me feet
don't fail me now
(Jesus Walks)
And I don't
think there is nothing I can do now to right my
wrongs
(Jesus Walks with me)
I want to talk
to God but I'm afraid because we ain't spoke in so
long

To the hustlas, killers, murderers,
drug dealers even the strippers
To the victims
of Welfare for we living in hell here hell
yeah
Now hear ye hear ye want to see Thee more
clearly
I know he hear me when my feet get
weary
Cuz we're the almost nearly
extinct
We rappers are 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 trying to say the way
school need teachers
The way Kathie Lee needed
Regis that's the way yall 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, video tapes
But if I talk
about God my record won't get played Huh?
Well
let this take away from my spins
Which will
probably take away from my ends
Then I hope
this take away from my sins
And bring the day
that I'm dreaming about
Next time I'm in the
club everybody screaming out

(Jesus
Walks)
God show me the way because the devil
trying to break me down
(Jesus Walks)
The
only thing that I pray is that me feet don't fail
me now
