[00:00.006][Intro]
[00:00.058]And that's why the white church, unfortunately
[00:03.508]Went along with slavery
[00:04.763]Went along with segregation
[00:06.090]Went along with lynching
[00:07.374][Verse 1]
[00:08.189]All hail like wall Christ thought good life was nigga plating some jewels
[00:12.212]Was poured in, almost bought in, sick of paying the dues
[00:15.727]Now to eviscerating the booths, participating the rules
[00:19.241]And your pockets deep, rock asleep, they wait 'til you snooze
[00:22.551]When every fighter's a black knight, this ain't the day that I lose
[00:26.065]I'm for blowing all out of proportion, no way to diffuse
[00:29.325]Catch a hole over something old, then later it's news
[00:32.838]My hardship keep the arts lit with science, the fate of a muse
[00:38.109]Just stating my truths
[00:41.125]They dirty birds, I'm impeccable
[00:43.384]A nod to God, but in large part it's ancestral
[00:46.482]Still trying to heal, so every meal start with vegetables
[00:50.263]Stay on the shelf between selfless and what's best for you
[00:53.273][Hook]
[00:54.540]Hope the sacrifice match the vice
[00:58.133]Hope the sacrifice match the vice
[01:01.394]Speak thoughts sincere to spare the soul
[01:05.159]I pray every cross you bear is gold
[01:07.675][Verse 2]
[01:08.684]Full of rage, trying to act "shalom"
[01:10.946]Not acknowledged on the side of knowledge if don't pass it on
[01:14.209]Ranked as anchor, who will I hand baton when the passion gone
[01:17.972]Take the slave name to the grave, I'm the last age spawn
[01:21.485]Discreet, not enough physique to have a leech latching on
[01:24.745]For years only snacking on what I can catch in palm
[01:28.260]Would meet opponent in heat of moment, nothing matched the calm
[01:31.542]For a few a friendship true, def can't detach the bond
[01:35.058]Made a pack, all I spoke is dope, but no tracks could harm
[01:38.577]While the fools choose illusion, top hat, magic wand
[01:42.088]Oppressed, the press only address how blacks respond
[01:45.378]Here the deceivers can't believe in their Jesus, that's a blonde
[01:48.640][Hook]
[01:53.418]Hope the sacrifice match the vice
[01:56.952]Hope the sacrifice match the vice
[02:00.461]Speak thoughts sincere to spare the soul
[02:03.725]I pray every cross you bear is gold
[02:08.789]Gold
[02:11.143]I pray every cross you bear is gold
