Chance The Rapper - Child of God lyrics

Igh! Just do your thing, child
Just do your thing, child do your thing

Truth be told, I got the ball on a string
Carried the weight of the world
But it came with some handles
I drag it to the basket
Moses with the passage
Safely Lord God, please, make an example
I try to break shackles
Now they ankles in shambles
I can't expect them to
Be grateful and thankful
They thought I had a manual like Hansel
Leave your plans in man's hands
And it gets manhandled
Dancing in the street, but I didn't panhandle
When I finally drop, make a pamphlet
Sell tickets, put that shit on FanDuel
OnlyFans and Fandango
Give me your ear like Van
Gogh and it's candlewick
I mean, I mean, it's lit like a candlestick
When I'm fatigued like a camo fit
A rich man: the size of the
Needle that the camel fit's
Walkin' to Jesus with my sandals wet

This world will make you
Second-guess your first mind
Remember when it was your first day
The first time? It couldn't have come at a
Worse place or worse time
And you remembered that lil voice
With that rehearsed line just repeatin'

Do your thing, child (Do your thing, child)
Do your thing (That shit hit, hahahaha)
Just do your thing, child (Oh jeez)
Do your thing (Do your thing)

At every corner store, bodega, delicatessen
Stands a big head kid
Learning delicate lessons
Roasted for they clothes
Or they emotions or they roaches
Bullied by they friends, or they mamas
Or they coaches
Half size, chastised, dolls with glass eyes
Talk down, tossed down
The world just pass by
Grow up to be saviors, surgeons, rabbis
The world should've capsized when
God got baptized
The boat don't sink, the show don't stop
The weapons form, the load don't drop
The boat gon' rock, the foes gon' plot
The rolls don't switch, the photo crop
The motto is "The more those hate
The more doors prop
Open", the prince of Heaven was tempted
Told that he wasn't who he was
And they meant it
Never was there a path better cemented
So what they gon' say when you at
The Olympics or tryna attempt it?

Remember it was your first day
The first time?
Couldn't come at a worse place or worse time
And you remembered that lil voice
With that rehearsed line
Repeating, it was saying

Do your thing just do your thing, child
Do your thing just do your thing, child
Just do your thing, child do your thing
Just do your thing, child do your thing
Just do your thing, child just do your thing

This world will make you second
Guess your first mind
Remember when it was your first day
The first time? It couldn't of come at a
Worse place or worse time
And you remembered that lil voice
With that rehearsed line just repeating

Do your thing, child
Do your thing (That shit hit)
Just do your thing, child (Oh Jeez)
Do your thing (Do your thing)
Just do your thing, child do your thing
Just do your thing, child do your thing
Just do your thing, child do your thing
Just do your thing, child do your thing
