Found God Lyrics

"I found God, on the corner of First and Amistad

Where the West was all but won

All alone, smoking his last cigarette

I said where have you been?

He said ask anything"

Chorus:

Yeah, stuck in this place where we can never leave

He looked at me and said it's money over everything (everything)

Came together when I got birds to fly

That's why I got these bad hoes thinkin' these nerds is fly

So where were you when I'm alone?

And yeah I know were poor but we richer than a lot of folk

Who would have thought that I would ever eat again?

When it was hard I told god that I would never speak to him

Verse 1:

I say, we all need to be saved - I'm prayin or I'm sayin' grace

Children of a Lesser God - Angel with a dirty face

No hope for the poor – it's the rich is who the system saves

Niggas go to prison, - while police increase the murder rates

Thinkin' why we forsaken? - and then I doubt God and

Then I Found God - He said - thank you for bein patient

Fuck that - livin' to die - to know that I could be killed

It's hard to be iced up with gucci God - poverties real

My stomach, - it hurts this morning - a warning - that death is certain

And here it floods, - the only thing that keeps churches from burning

So they closed another school - ain't no jobs - I mean you owe us this

Cuz they be sellin' drugs to kids - and everybody knows the shyt

Maybe we will all just off each other - or get close to it

The sun never shines - ain't somebody 'ppose to notice this

And it even like we tried to fight - And Ayana Jones just died tonight

But that's alright cuz I think

Chorus:

Yeah, stuck in this place where we can never leave

He looked at me and said it's money over everything (everything)

Came together when I got birds to fly

That's why I got these bad hoes thinkin' these nerds is fly

So where were you when I'm alone?

And yeah I know were poor but we richer than a lot of folk

Who would have thought that I would ever eat again?

When it was hard I told god that I would never speak to him

Verse 2:

We got, choices to make - go hungry or keep the lights on

Defeated - and we've been given nothin to shine on

No one can save us - keep my niggas in cuffs

I recollect we use to ball - now just livin's enough

Plus – there's no father figures - figures, why we're lead a stray

Bishop - they say he twisted so I question this collection plate

Hate that my city went from ugly to disgustin',

To know - you're at the top - and only Heaven's right above it

Disgusted - wondering God - where are you when I'm alone?

In the business of buying souls - only f..ck with those who sell em

Tell em - strip 'em of pride - change the station - cover your eyes

The Elephant's in the room - the devil is a lie

But I, feel I have the right to fight for my spot

He say why you stand alone - I say it's lonely on top

And I Hate to say - that people die in the struggle everyday

But they will kill me anyway - so I guess it's an even trade

But hey

Chorus:

Yeah, stuck in this place where we can never leave

He looked at me and said it's money over everything (everything)

Came together when I got birds to fly

That's why I got these bad hoes thinkin' these nerds is fly

So where were you when I'm alone?

And yeah I know were poor but we richer than a lot of folk

Who would have thought that I would ever eat again?

When it was hard I told god that I would never speak to him
