kanye west – can’t tell me nothing (sunday service choir) lyrics
[verse 1]
[?], til we get the message
i feel the pressure
under more scrutiny
and what i do?
act more stupidly
pop more jewelry, h++rd louis v
my momma couldn’t get through to me
the drama, people suing me
i’m on tv talking like it’s just you and me
i’m just saying how i feel man
i ain’t one of the cosby’s
i ain’t go to h+ll man
i guess the money should’ve changed em
i finally came back to where i came from
[chorus]
ahhh la la la la
our lord and savior, jesus christ
accept and receive eternal life
aaahhh
they can’t tell me nothing
uh uh, they can’t tell me nothing
they can’t tell me nothing
uh uh, they can’t tell me nothing
ahhh la la la la
our lord and savior, jesus christ
accept and receive eternal life
aaahhh
they can’t tell me nothing
uh uh, they can’t tell me nothing
they can’t tell me nothing
uh uh, they can’t tell me nothing
[verse 2]
see the devil will make you think
if you follow god
you finna fall off
we put these tickets on sale in the morning
and they sold out in the morning
nah i’m saying i be in the studio
and people come up to me like
“man, you better not [?], you better not do this”
and then they’ll play songs that’s all like
“i was with these girls like this, i did this girl”
all this type of stuff+
basically sayin’ like
look, if you follow god
you finna fall off
that jesus came number one1, 3 weeks
that jesus born
but not just that, finding that peace
inside you
not just the numbers
god using us to show off
to show god is better than the devil
the devil took all the producers, the musicians, the designers
moved us all out to hollywood
moved us all out to new york
chasing ghost statues
literally signing a contract to selling our souls
they got contracts out there that say you can’t say jesus
when we was working on this album people used to be coming over the studio just to say jesus as loud as they wanted to
you can say jesus in ye studio
you see, i’m like one of them, i’m like a uh uh, a nineteen star michelin chef
the way i cook up, you know what i’m saying
but if the devil have you serving 8 restaurants at one time
it might drive you crazy
and one of the restaurants could be your own ego
one of them restaurants could be public opinion
one of them restaurants could be legacy
one of them restaurants could be fame
one of them restaurants could be money
but there’s only one restaurant we servin’ for tonight
and i said tonight ’cause i be in the future sometimes
and that’s god’s restaurant
where everybody coming as service to god
and he bringing it back tenfold
a hundredfold
a millionfold
blessings untold
blessings harder than gold
stronger than it go
i returned my soul
to the one that chose me
the one that owns me
the ones that shows me
and that’s what god showed me
the devil controlled me
but he can’t hold me
because god control me
and life has showed me
that god is the only
the real not the phony
the phonies will clone me
just watch how they cloned me
and [?]
i’m here with more homies
i’m here with my families
i don’t need a grammy
i’m back in the building
i’m here with my children
you know it’s a feeling
you know it’s a feeling
you know it’s a feeling
[outro]
ahhh la la la la (yeah, that’s that feeling!)
ahhh la la la la (yeah, that’s that feeling!)
ahhh la la la la (yeah, that’s that feeling)
la la la la yea
for my lord and savior, jesus christ
ohhh
ah ah, ayy
and that’s why
they can’t tell me nothing
la la la la our lord and savior jesus christ
laaa la la la la
accept and receive eternal life
aaah
they can’t tell us nothing (uh uh!)
yea
uh uh, they can’t tell us nothing
they can’t tell us nothing
they can’t tell us nothing
