Ms. Holy Roller |
| Mic check 1, 2, 1, 2. this is dedicated to an old friend of mine, Michelle |
| She a holy roller now |
| Now everything old gon' burn |
| Ms. Holy Roller, new angel, got ya Bible out shoutin' and you’re ringing a bell |
| mid-life, reborn, can’t wait to tell, if I don’t believe what you believe, |
| I’m going to hell… |
| I’ve been down with Jesus since Sunday school &Easter speeches |
| The Bible was survival, that’s what my grandma would teach us |
| Since I was 5, I’ve been dying and trying to read it When I did I did, |
| it redefined it |
| Now you was 34 when you found Jesus after your life fell to pieces |
| Wife two times, with two guys, now enlightened in speeches |
| Seemed to flow out your mouth with the hype of a preacher |
| Took your whole life to reach you, now I’m a trifling creature |
| Come on, if I die right this second, I reckon that God would simply check |
| into my life ×, dissecting my rhymes, he’ll see how I’ve been leading his |
| troops |
| You can’t do dirt your whole life then say «oops'! |
| Now where was Jesus, when you life then you was cheatin', when you was |
| deceiving me? |
| Where was Jesus when you greedy, your lawyers was bleeding me? |
| Where was Jesus when every weekend, a new man living with you? |
| Oh, wait he was with me, trying to keep me from killing you! |
| Now, where was Jesus when you was lying &you was betraying me? |
| When I was trying to make it, you was hatin' delayin' me, huh? |
| Where was Jesus when the ice was thrilling you, |
| Oh, he was he with me trying to keep me from killing you! |
| If I ain’t know Jesus, ain’t no telling where I would be |
| It’s been nights I felt like feces; |
| I needed to fight to release it |
| I’m in the limelight, it’s hot &the heat is ceaseless, |
| Holding my tongue while little bums cut me to pieces |
| The only reason’s cause I studied the life of Jesus & |
| Venting with my pen, intending to write &release it |
| But when an ex-friend would slight me or slam me with venom |
| I hate it, I can’t stand it, damned, I really resent it |
| I always strive to be righteous, my version of God |
| The reason why I never write verses with curses inside |
| The reason I never purposely hurt persons, |
| I’ve applied many teaching of God, |
| Searching the reaches of God |
| Pondered the mysteries of why you be dissing me, |
| I adore you all I hope for you is freedom from misery |
| You made mistakes &blunders, you breaking from under |
| But yo, If I’m going to hell, it’s making me wonder. |
| The greatest atrocities ever committed on this planet have been in the |
| name of God |
| This country was founded by Puritans, for the expressed purpose of |
| oppression-free worship |
| Your attitude is the same arrogant, fearful fundamentalism that fueled the |
| hatred of the Crusades |
| &the attacks on 9/11. |
| If we are not allowed to worship God as groups &individuals free from |
| persecution, in respectful |
| Tolerance, there’s only one outcome… |
