Black Jesus ft. Wess Lyrics

Lord, I done seen highs and lows, I changed my approach

I'm not the same as before, them lames tried to fold

My mama raised a pot of gold, so niggas watch me glow

Lord knows, I'm the rose that grew from the concrete skin tone

Mahogany , mention my name properly

I'ma need all respect whenever you mention a prodigy

Not here to play, like a note that's out of key

Papa was a rolling stone, all he left me was alone

I looked up to the gangsters like Tony and Al Capone

No, I don't condone violence, but if you feelin' odd

The heat gon' make you reflect that street life like a mirage

I pop off, just like a bullet when it's dislodged

Then knock off your cranium, understand me, then nod

This flow can make an atheist believe in God

If you don't have haters, you ain't do your job

Right

Because they throw stones in my hometown

They never knew I was profound

I'm a black sheep, but I'm so proud

Yes, sir, ain't know me then, you gon' know now

Got the top down every time I roll out

Ain't believe, so they use thorns for his crowns

But he's a king walkin' through the crowds

Black Jesus

From walkin' on waters to walkin' on beats

We use the pen to help build our mystique

Ain't gotta pretend when you keep it low-key, then stack it slow

I'm at your ho, then out the door

The fragrance of a boss, she couldn't let it go

Speak of which, my faith was low

Wicked tendencies will grow

Puttin' more faith in my bro

Them pots was sayin', let this snow

Blazin' down a path that was paved for another

Couldn't navigate it, so I began changin' my druthers

Quite misleading with others

Become your measuring stick

Easy to lose yourself in every click

But like a feline, I stay prayin' on uh

Until it's conquered

I'm mastered' self-forgiveness and it's deadly honor

Now we topic of conversations

Drivin' my elation to do it big

Hope this risk I'm takin

Don't leave vacancies in my rib

If so, that's just the way that weh had it destined to be

Now throw your hands up to the sky

While you quotin' Ali

Right

Because

They throw stones in my hometown

They never knew I was profound

I'm a black sheep, but I'm so proud

Yes, sir

Ain't know me then, you gon' know now

Got the top down every time I roll out

Ain't believe, so they use thorns for his crowns

But he's a king walkin' through the crowd

Black Jesus
