[00:01.81]Written by ：Christopher E Martin/Lawrence Krsone Parker
[01:38.853]After seven years of rocking
[01:40.264]How do you rate me
[01:41.673]Poorly or greatly
[01:42.623]Everybody seems to be going for there's lately
[01:45.230]Yo mad heads be needing money
[01:47.192]So listen very close as I conduct this little study
[01:49.781]See it's funny to me you can watch TV
[01:52.476]And give up your life trying to be all you can be
[01:55.470]In the army
[01:56.323]Not knowing your history
[01:58.201]You either fight and die or come back home in misery
[02:01.134]Yo get with me I deal with reality
[02:03.478]Loosen your mind to the truth and don't get mad at me
[02:06.434]No politician can give you peace
[02:08.420]If you trust Jesus why do you vote for a beast
[02:11.536]Emancipation is long over due
[02:13.945]So overcome procrastination
[02:15.466]Because freedom is within you
[02:17.250]For some reason we think we're free
[02:19.377]So we'll never be
[02:20.601]Because we haven't recognized slavery
[02:22.638]You're still a slave look at how you behave
[02:25.186]Debating on where and when and how and what Massey gave
[02:28.43]You want to know how we screwed up from the beginning
[02:30.745]We accepted our oppressor's religion
[02:33.348]So in the case of slavery it ain't hard
[02:36.217]Because it's right in the eyes of their god
[02:38.858]Where is our god the god that represents us
[02:41.526]The god that looks like me the god that I can trust
[02:44.427]A god of peace and love not mass hysteria
[02:46.964]I don't want a god that blesses America
[02:49.697]I could never really vote for the devil
[02:52.428]Let me take you to a higher level
[03:05.920]Title take the title from the bible we can get there
[03:08.769]Rip the title from off the front of the bible god don't live there
[03:11.615]Too many inconsistencies too many mysteries
[03:14.79]Picture the pope and the Vatican laughing and drinking and singing and
[03:16.848]Kissing me
[03:17.103]I stand with god whether I'm paid or whether I'm crying broke
[03:19.611]I like to ask these politicians would Jesus vote
[03:22.260]The way we view god is a freaking shame
[03:24.938]Church is to blame
[03:26.43]We trust god but bomb Hussein
[03:28.92]We simply loving the scripture
[03:29.884]Same scripture that whipped 'cha
[03:31.451]Sooner it'll hit 'cha
[03:32.391]Religion's getting richer
[03:33.341]With that European version of Christ made into a picture
[03:36.377]Our society's getting sicker and sicker and sicker
[03:39.283]Like liquor we are god intoxicated
[03:41.315]Not to the true god but the one the government created
[03:44.231]The same governments telling people to vote
[03:46.484]I pray to god because the people have lost hope
[03:49.164]You either vote for the mumps or the measles
[03:52.182]Whether you vote for the lesser of two evils you vote for evil
[03:55.525]Politics and god are not equal
[03:57.282]But the education if you don't guard is really lethal
[04:00.424]People have more respect for a holy book
[04:03.76]Than they do for a cow on a meat hook
[04:05.900]Believers of Jesus be denouncing Satan on every level
[04:08.449]But every Halloween they're dressing like devils
[04:11.256]I pray to you for the light you might give them
[04:14.05]Mother make them know that you're living with them
[04:16.827]You begin them and end them in silence
[04:19.208]Frankly if they knew you they would understand violence
[04:22.134]I pray to you for the pope and the Vatican
[04:24.778]Have mercy mother cause I know that you're mad at them
[04:27.645]The white Jesus deceived us awhile ago
[04:30.12]And pope Julius the second paid Michaelmas
[04:32.937]I know this happened in 1519yet
[04:35.697]This is the image we can't seem to forget
[04:38.296]Vote for god don't vote for the devil
[04:41.139]Let me take you to a higher level
