T.I. - Hallelujah lyrics
[T.I. - Hallelujah lyrics]
Jesus loves me this I know
For the Bible tells me so
Sometimes I wake up, feel like
I’m in Forest City, arkansas
Although I’m free
I’m still a prisoner of all I saw
Sometimes I leave this booth at 4 am
And ride down Simpson
Just prayin homie, and reminiscin
Sometimes my nightmare seems so real
Feel like I’m still in prison
I reach out for Tameeka hand
I’m trippin 'cause she missin'
It’s pitch black dark, like I’m in solitary
So if my freedom was a dream, Lord
Please prepare me
It seems like satan want my soul
And he refuse to share me
My former friends talk about me
Like I'm dead and buried
Bastards want me in the casket
For my head cold
Trouble in my soul, the devil got a hold
Did everything to me but kill me
Like he did to Job
He took my diamonds, took my rhymes
Took my fame and gold
He took my business interest
He took my wife and kids
But he can’t take nothing God
Can’t give me back again
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah
I went to jail, stood tall, then I fell again
It seems like I'm Jonah and right
Back in that whale again
I felt the panic when they locked
Me in that cell again
I had to pray and meditate
Control my breath again
Like Lazarus I’ve risen from a
Bed of death again the Lord is with me
I could stand against a thousand men
I read the songs of David
Prayed to be like Solomon
God’s wisdom walkin all amongst
These hollow men i’m a king
I dare to lead when they just follow men
I see a better way
I’m keeping my eyes on the sparrow
I’m exiting my Egypt
Tell em wave goodbye to pharaoh
Mother told me before she left this
Earth that I was special
And because I’m special
They gon' make me suffer
Like they crucified Jesus right
In front his mother
Suckas, but he arose on the third day
To save, you're here to give favor
Let the church say
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Jesus loves me this I know
For the Bible tells me so yes, He loves me
This I know for the Bible tells me so
For the Bible tells me so
Sometimes I wake up, feel like
I’m in Forest City, arkansas
Although I’m free
I’m still a prisoner of all I saw
Sometimes I leave this booth at 4 am
And ride down Simpson
Just prayin homie, and reminiscin
Sometimes my nightmare seems so real
Feel like I’m still in prison
I reach out for Tameeka hand
I’m trippin 'cause she missin'
It’s pitch black dark, like I’m in solitary
So if my freedom was a dream, Lord
Please prepare me
It seems like satan want my soul
And he refuse to share me
My former friends talk about me
Like I'm dead and buried
Bastards want me in the casket
For my head cold
Trouble in my soul, the devil got a hold
Did everything to me but kill me
Like he did to Job
He took my diamonds, took my rhymes
Took my fame and gold
He took my business interest
He took my wife and kids
But he can’t take nothing God
Can’t give me back again
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah
I went to jail, stood tall, then I fell again
It seems like I'm Jonah and right
