Ja Rule Interlude

[Verse: Ja Rule, Interviewer] Y'know, during my journey I was in a lot of churches, man A-and I sit there and, y'know We'd do like a little Q&A thing, we'd get up on stage and people would ask me and say "Yo, y'know, Ja, are you saved? Do you accept Christ in your life?" And I'd be like, y'know, "I'm not there yet" Right "Y'know, I'm kinda- Y'know, I love God, of course, y'know, like everybody else, y'know I believe in God But y'know, I'm kinda takin' baby steps I'm kinda, y'know-" But what I was really saying is "I don't feel like I'm a part of this, yet." Hmm "I don't feel welcome" "I don't feel like-" Wow Because you know, it's difficult, when people going to church Y'know, for the first time Which was a lot of first times for me Y'know um- 'Cause you grew up a Jehovah's Witness I grew up a Jehovah's Witness Y'know, that really put a black eye on religion for me for a long long time Wow 'Cause that's a really strict religion And it really deterred me from religion, but Once I started going back into the church, I just didn't feel like I was welcome Y'know, you go into the church and they say "Come as you are", but do they really mean it? They don't mean it Y'know what I mean? I heard today I was doing a show today And they was a Christian show, up in a church And they were saying, like, they were at some church and they were turning people away Are you serious? That's the same face I made! I ain't never heard of that! They were turning people away at church, like "No, you can't worship here, we good", y'know what I mean? So that, that really made me think about what I was saying was real, 'cause sometimes people just don't feel like they belong
