james wade - 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
n-gg-s 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
f-ck 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:

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 n-gg-s 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:
