Reverence - Radio Edit

Watch me ride...

Take my words and the bass

Taste, and then swallow me

I'm chasing the devil

Cos you're level if you follow me

For quality, and I make no apology

For linking my thinking with computer technology

Cos this is like a modern day hymn

For the new church

I search for the truth

I've got a hole in my tooth

I'm Uncouth, yes sir

I'm from the street university

Where we learn to earn even in times of adversity

And I will find the easy way out of a hard time

Petty crime sometime

But now I'm inclined to find

A fresh direction

Check out the funky section

Cos this is the part where I start to rip up words

A comfort coming straight from my heart

I'm not a mystic, my views are realistic, simplistic

One special brew I get pissed quick

And get sick so I don't do it no more

I won't find peace of mind

Rolling around on the floor

The point I want to make

Is you can never escape from your fate

The mistake is to take without givin'

From within

You know how I'm living

I'm cool, I'm looking after myself

And I could never place wealth before my spirit

I feel it's unhealthy

The devil creep around you so stealthy, stealthy

'Till you get bold, rush the gold

And before you're much older

You're soul is sold, where's it getting ya

Competition starts sweating ya

Gold-diggers setting you up

Soon be forgetting your existence

Do you need a for instance

I have to admire your persistence

In sticking to a game plan

That brings you pain man

And at the end of the day nothing is gained

So listen to the voice within

I'll see ya later

Pay heed to the Grand Oral Disseminator

Quiet, still, you feel there's nothing going on

Until you realise the space behind your eyes

Is filling up with something like peace

As your thoughts cease and

Pleasure grows in your soul

I ain't a Christian, sometimes

I feel like dissing em, but listen

I'm just trying to tell ya what I know

If you would once relax, chill to the max

These words on wax will cause sweet bells

To ring in your soul

If I say God is alive I know you wanna know why

Babies die, food don't grow, why trains smash, planes crash

Situation mash and slam bam your fellow man

Money's in fashion, huh, it ain't rational

Because dam it, he didn't just give us the planet

And its wealth, deep inside your soul he left a piece of himself

The lord is in here. His voice is small

You keep lying and trying

Denying the call from inside

You can't hide responsibility

So decide from today just how it's going to be

Thou shalt have no other god but me

He can set you free see

But you have to listen

And who's that false idol

I see you kissing?

Money, success and untold wealth, good health

And all you have to do is love yourself

It's a fact you'll attract all the things that you lack

So just chill

And get off the racetrack

And take a pace back, face facts

It's your decision

You don't need eyes to see

You need vision

Continue to view the lord as being separated

And you'll be living a lie that's being perpetrated

For many centuries, I'm on a mission

These facts in my rap

I don't sing

But I want to share the peace that they bring

My name is G.O.D
