Hallelujah

Jesus loves me

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 cuz 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 will 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 better 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 me

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 3rd day

Just save your head and get a favour, 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

Oh
