God In The Building 2

[Bridge]

God is still with me (He's still with me) [x4]

[Verse 1]

It's hot like Haiti down in Hades

The false prophet say the Lord has forsaken us black babies

To make it off a island in Mercedes

We going sell it white as Michelangelo's Christ

Babies need rice, the baby need beans

To feed our babies beans we might have to flip a bean

I have sold my people dope yet provided them with hope

Sinner and saint, yeah, I did ‘em both

Yea I sold a brick on a basketball court

And bought the uniforms for the basketball coach

Can't wash a way the blood so I put rings on my fingers

25 carats symbolize my redeemer

And my redeemer's blood is capable of taking Chris Dudus

Making him a savior of others

My God will take a Saul, fashion him a Paul

So only God can judge me and to hell with all y'all

[Hook]

I lift my eyes upon the hills

From whence cometh my health

Only God can judge me

And nobody else

I beat these streets to make the Devil a lie

Marching at hell to the gangster's eye

I can feel the fire still everywhere

If heaven got a ghetto I'm a make it there

[Bridge]

[Verse 2]

The critics ask why Michael never blowed

Well, truthfully I met the Devil at the crossroad

He offered me success in exchange for my soul

He stripped me of my riches, broke me down like Job

First he took my car, and then he took my house

But he couldn't take the Lord's name out a nigga mouth

So then he took my friends, and then he took my fame

And then he had my former friends dirty up my name

And while he was lying/lion I was Daniel in the den

Walking with an angel, a testament to men

I can walk on water, I defy the odds

The Devil give you fame, but he can't defy my God

My God is amazing, I don't need the Masons

I just need the junkies and the liars and the theives

I need the pimps, prostitues and pushers out the streets

That's where I'm seeking God cuz that's where he found me

That's where I'm seeking God cuz that's where he found me

Amen

[Hook]

[Bridge]

[Outro]

They tried to tell me "Don't make these kind of records

You're never going to be who you're suppossed to be"

The record that people are most connected to is 'God in the Building 1'

So I give you 'God in the Building 2'

I'm a keep doing what I am doing

I'm a keep building my testament

My empire, my legacy, my way

Because I know God moves through me

God is in me at all given times

So some of you all can shortcut, take whatever road you like to

I prefer the high road (high road)
