[M.I., Blu - Church, West Texas lyrics]
And my God
You say you're listening but we all
Handle it different
And I admit that I'm flawed
So when I don't see you
I think nothing at all
All I want is for you to be real
For you to be what they told me you’d be
When I couldn’t deal
With things that I shouldn’t feel
And thoughts that I shouldn’t think
But im singing about it still
I got singles that shouldn’t sink
But they do through & through I’m a sinner
& this is proof
Realistic with this, im questioning
His existence cause who
Knows if he’s even listening
Nobody knows the truth
But they holding on to a remnant
Exposing it to the youth
& im hoping that what im doing
With vocals up in this booth
Is supposed to be why he put my here
Why I open up to all of you
Im assuming that all of yall feel it too
That you won’t believe it but people got
Hope that all of it's true & I do too
Am I a fool? I know im the last one
You should be listening to
Ive said it im hypocritical with it
With different views
Conflicted cause they killing each other
Over religion im confused
& my god
I know you say you listening but we all
Handle it different & I admit that im flawed
So when I don’t see you
I think nothing at all
& when I don’t hear you I think it's typical
Father forgive me for what im saying
Im playing i ain’t been the same since pain
So don’t be listening to me when I say
Church first off, niggas wipe ya shirk off
Dust the dirt up off of ya shoulders
Brush ya shirt off
Cleanliness is next to godliness
I could try to pretend like im the godliest
But tell me, what would my goddess think?
I don seen the clink
Seen niggas with no religion
Search for god just because of
Them situations they been in
When your backs against the wall
Who you call?
I look at my 2 fist clenched, ready to brawl
I ain’t never had to crawl
I ain’t never finna fall
You can bring all of your squads &
Squad cars to box with the laws
But when gravity fails you
& hell is saying ‘hello’
And the halo lost the angel that rocked it
How does your day go
I just think about the mothers in
Church that put in work
So we can find some peace
Without finding it under dirt
I told my mama it’s a time
Bomb beating under my shirt
I be ready to burst but
God knows I squirt first so I murked out
Instead of murkin a ignorant verse
I pulled a verse out the good
Book when I wasn’t at church
I said fuck ho’s, fuck whips
Fuck gold & all that
Now I see that god is everything
I want it all back
I want it all, want it all
Aay, we sinning over here but
God is everything
I give him the benefit of the doubt
But my god hook
This ain’t, no this ain’t the same ol faith
You say you're listening but we all
Handle it different
And I admit that I'm flawed
So when I don't see you
I think nothing at all
All I want is for you to be real
For you to be what they told me you’d be
When I couldn’t deal
With things that I shouldn’t feel
And thoughts that I shouldn’t think
But im singing about it still
I got singles that shouldn’t sink
But they do through & through I’m a sinner
