[Killer Mike - Ghetto Gospel lyrics]
And I'm sitting on the edge of
My bed holding my head
Trying to make this cake like a baker
And get some bread
My mama said hustlin' does come with feds
Time do the crime you better had be prepared
For what comes with it the
Killing the court convictions
Snorting, bitches
The snitches often they get acquitted
While the real sent to prison
To rot away while they living
And all because I say dope
Shit they on a mission
To nail my black ass to
The wall with a conviction
I pray the Lawd hear me but
Really Lawd is ya listen'n
Praying when I'm in trouble I'm
Speaking with forked tongue
I say I'm out the game but
I'm flinching like George Jung
I must be in the clutches
Of Satan it's all warm
My mama took you to the "root
Lady" to read my palm
She puts beads on my neck saying
They protecting me from harm
But fuck this old witch, I went and got a gun
Oh Lord, Jesus, glory oh Lord
Oh Lord, Jesus, glory oh Lord
Looking at the bezel of my Breitling
Thinking that I used to
Sell raps for enlightenment
But I got lapped by them guys
Selling lies for the white man
Now I sell pies for the white man
And my tour bus is a moving indictment
This must be how Huey felt
When the revolution failed
And in Oakland nigga turned him on
To a sack of yayo
You know this feeling false but
It feels like yeah
I may have lost my cause but
Not a reason to rebel
Revolutionary or drug dealer I'm in jail
And the CO's call me nigga
Either way when I'm there
Just like they did Pac
Just like they do Mumia
Just like they doing to Mutulu or
Assata if they see her
And ain't no justice if it's just us in court
For my folk and my people free Hoover
Free Fort the Lord never break us if
We all on one accord you know it
Oh Lord, Jesus, glory oh Lord
Oh Lord, Jesus, glory oh Lord
Even as I'm standing here
Iceless Mike is priceless
Women with me prettier than Isis
Don't know if she black or a white chick
But I know this pussy and excitement
Gonna lead to indictments
The women and the fame
Put shade on enlightenment
I don seen dark days come to many bright men
I done seen a damn dime fine
As a fine wine take an Einstein mind
Leave 'em deaf dumb blind
Fuckin with them jezebel whores
Liars of Delilah even marrying a Pandora
Pretty parasite she will use ya
This ain't what you used to
Stone cold bitch she Medusa
Dope ass pussy might make you an abuser
You an addict not in love, boy
Don't get it confused, bruh
She don't need a boyfriend she
Just need a booster she the devil's pie guy
You was fucking Lucifer
Oh Lord, Jesus, glory oh Lord
Oh Lord, Jesus, glory oh Lord
My bed holding my head
Trying to make this cake like a baker
And get some bread
My mama said hustlin' does come with feds
Time do the crime you better had be prepared
For what comes with it the
