Ms. Holy Roller (Album Version)

Mic check, one, two, one, two In the name of the Father This dedicated to a old friend of mine, Michelle The Son, and of the Holy Spirit She a holy roller now, turn over a new leaf Please Now everything old gon' burn Please help me not do it again Uh Ms Holy roller, new angel with your Bible Out, shoutin' and you ringin' a bell Midlife reborn and can't wait to tell If I don't believe what you believe, I'm goin' to hell Yo, I been down with Jesus since Sunday school and Easter speeches The Bible was survival, that's what my grandma would teach us Since I was five, I've been dyin' and tryin' To read it, and when 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 enlightening 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? Ms Holy roller, new angel with your Bible Out, shoutin' and you ringin' a bell Midlife reborn and can't wait to tell If I don't believe what you believe, I'm goin' to hell Come on If I die right this second, I reckon that God would simply Check into my life and times, dissectin' my rhymes He'll see how I've been leadin' his troops You can't do dirt your whole life, then say, "Oops." Now Where was Jesus when you was cheatin' and you was deceiving me? Where was Jesus when you was greedy? Your lawyers was bleedin' me Where was Jesus when every weekend, a new man was livin' with you? Oh, wait, he was with me, tryin' to keep me from killin' you Now, where was Jesus when you was lyin' and you was betrayin' me? When I was tryin' to make it and you was hatein', delayin' me, huh? Where was Jesus when the ice was thrillin' ya? Oh, wait, he was with me, tryin' to keep me from killin' ya If I ain't know Jesus, ain't no tellin' 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 and the heat is ceaseless And holdin' my tongue, all of the bones cut me to pieces The only reason's 'cause I studied the life of Jesus and Ventin' with my pen and intendin' to write and release it But when an ex-friend slight me and slam me with venom I hate it, I can't stand it, damn it, I really resent it I always strive to be righteous, my version of God, the Reason why I never write rap verses with curses inside The reason I never purposely hurt persons, I've applied Many teachings of God searchin' the reaches of God Ponder the mysteries of why you be dissin' me I adore you, all I hope for you is freedom from misery You made mistakes and blunders, you breakin' from under But yo, if I'm goin' to hell, it's makin' me wonder Now, where was Jesus when you was cheatin' and you was deceiving me? Where was Jesus when you was greedy? Your lawyers was bleedin' me Where was Jesus when every weekend, a new man was livin' with you? Oh, wait, he was with me, tryin' to keep me from killin' you Now, where was Jesus when you was lyin' and you was betrayin' me? When I was tryin' to make it and you was hatein', delayin' me, huh? Where was Jesus when the ice was thrillin' ya? Oh, wait, he was with me, tryin' to keep me from killin' ya The greatest atrocities ever committed on This planet have been in the name of God This country was founded by the Puritans for The express purpose of oppression-free worship Your attitude is the same arrogant, fearful fundamentalism that Fueled the hatred of the Crusades and the attacks of 9/11 If we are not allowed to worship God as groups and individuals free From persecution in respectful tolerance, there's only one outcome Ms Holy roller, new angel with your Bible Out, shoutin' and you ringin' a bell Midlife reborn and can't wait to tell If I don't believe what you believe, I'm goin' to hell Yo, Ms Holy roller, new angel with your Bible Out, shoutin' and you ringin' a bell Midlife reborn and can't wait to tell If I don't believe what you believe, I'm goin' to hell
