john givez - chapter 29 lyrics
[intro]
a player had a change of heart
a change of start
in chapter 29
of jeremiah
[verse 1]
i lay alone in my room weary and wounded wondering where god is
living my life godless for too long
i tried it and i am try to just bribe him with the sweet prayers of my mama
but luck done ran out
i’m a southern california playalistic rebel with no cause
i think my soul’s lost somewhere between captivity and captivation
my situation is sh-
i’m facing this complex
excuse my language but don’t take this here out of context
you in my room, where i do what i do to get by
god, i hope you don’t mind if i read this bible and get high
like that song kush & corinthians say
will you take me as i am?
i can’t be nobody else but my d-mn self
and i done landed on chapter 29
in the book of jeremiah, verse 11
and i ain’t no reverend but this here say you got plans for me
do you got plans for me?
[hook]
i can’t admit ya (i turned it to the page, it was chapter 29)
i stand to face ya (turned it to the page, it was chapter 29)
i gave you time (i turned it to the page, it was chapter 29)
turn to chapter 29 (turned it to the page, it was chapter 29)
i can’t admit ya (i turned it to the page, it was chapter 29)
i stand to face ya (turned it to the page, it was chapter 29)
i gave you time (i turned it to the page, it was chapter 29)
turn to chapter 29 (turned it to the page, it was chapter 29)
[bridge 1]
a lot of people saying they can hear god
never scared but they saying i should fear god
staring at the ceiling feeling hopeless
all alone, can you tell me if you’re near god?
[verse 2]
now god, i don’t mean no disrespect
i got baggage and i don’t know how to let it go just yet
i know i’m a sinner
i know the devil see me as dinner
i know there’s levels to this
when i look at my life and how i was raised i know i’m better than this
but see the cards been dealt
i need your help to play this hand
i’d pray to you everyday if i got to and tell the homies about your plan
and they probably gon’ laugh at me but that’s cool
i’ll show them how you
found a wretched vessel to use
bless me with tools
take me anywhere you want me to go
matter fact, show me everything you want me to know
oh my soul
i rebel against hell
and try my best to live well
and if i fail
pick me up again god

all the gangstas, get down (what now? it’s a war for your soul)
all the hustlers, get down (what now? it’s a war for your soul)
all the players, get down (what now? it’s a war for your soul)
it’s a war for your soul (what now? it’s a war for your soul)
what now? (what now? it’s a war for your soul)
[outro]
far from here, we can go far
far from here, we can go far
we can roll
we can go
we can stroll
