I JUST NEED TO GET THIS OFF MY CHEST...
LOOK IN THE MIRROR jay z YOUR LIFE IS A MESS
GO ON YOUR KNEES AND CONFESS
YOU ARE INFLUENCING THE YOUTH
THEY EAT YOUR WORDS LIKE IT'S SERVED OFF THEIR MUMMA'S PLATE
JUNK FOOD AND THE OCCATIONAL SNACKS
YOUR LYRICS ARE LIKE BAD FOOD, CONTAMINATED
EVERYONE LISTENING TO IT HAS FOOD POISONING
BUT FOR SOME IT WILL BE TOO LATE
COZ THEY WON'T REALISE UNTIL THEY STAND INFRONT OF HELL'S GATE
BUT I'M NOT FOOLED BY YOUR STATUS
OR HIPNOTIZED BY YOUR VOICE
I'M INTO GOSPEL RAP
AND FOR GOD WE SAINTS WILL MAKE A LOT OF NOISE
AND BECOZ OF HIM WE WILL REJOICE
YOU'RE NOT THE ONLY ONE WHO KNOWS HOW TO HOLD THE MIC
STAND ON STAGES AND SPIT OVER HOT BEATS
COME TO MY HOME TOWN, CAPE TOWN
AND GET YOURSELF A TRANSLATOR
'COZ I'LL RIP YOUR TRACKS APART USING COLORED SLANG
AND YOUR TRANSLATOR WILL NEED A TRANSLATOR
'COZ I'LL USE WORDS THAT HE WON'T UNDERSTAND
NOT EVEN YOU OR YOUR ENTOURAGE WILL COMPREHEND
YOU WANT TO DIS MY GOD, GO AHEAD
BUT I WON'T STAND FOR THAT
I DON'T NEED TO FIGHT MY LORD'S BATTLES
HE CAN TAKE CARE OF THAT, MATTER OF FACT
YOUR ACTIONS WILL BE ACCOUNTED FOR
AND JUDGEMENT YOU CAN'T IGNORE
MY GOD IS ALMIGHTY
BUT WHY AM I TELLING YOU THIS FOR
THIS INFORMATION THE father OF LIES ALREADY KNOWS
THAT LITTLE PRICK YOU CHOOSE TO FOLLOW
AND IT'S BOTH YOUR HEADS ON THE CHOPPING BLOCK
I THREW MY PUNCH AND YOU CAN TRY TO BLOCK
BUT IT'S YOUR HEART THAT I'M AIMING FOR
SO YOU MIGHT NOT SEE EXTERNAL BRUISES
BUT YOUR MIND IS IN IT'S OWN PSYCH WARD
STRUGGLING TO GET OUT
BUT YOU'RE BURRIED BY THE devil's LIES
SO YOUR ACTIONS, FOR ME IS NO SUPRISE
YOUR SPIRITMAN IS ON LIFE-SUPPORT
COZ WHILE YOU'RE STILL ON THIS SIDE OF ETERNITY
THERE'S A CHANCE FOR YOU TO COME TO THIS SIDE
US SAINTS WHO CARRIES GOD'S BANNER ON THE BATTLEGROUND
'COZ WE PROCLAIM THE BATTLE'S WON
AND BESIDES OUR FATHER IN HEAVEN TAKES ON OUR BATTLES
AND WE JUST GIVE HIM GLORY
YOU MIGHT HAVE MANY PLATINUMS
BUT MY GOD HAS MANY ATTRIBUTES
THAT WILL MAKE ALL OF YOUR ACHIEVEMENTS SOUND PLAIN WACK
CONSIDER YOURSELF SPIRITUALLY SMACKED
HOW DARE YOU DIS MY GOD WITH THE VERY TALENT HE BESTOWED UPON YOU
YOU WOULD'VE BEEN BETTER OF CHOCKING ON YOUR MOTHER'S UMBILICAL CORD
'COZ NOW YOU'LL STAND IN HEAVEN'S COURT
GIVING ANSWERS TO EACH AND EVERY ACTION AND WORD
AND THE JUDGE IS THE VERY GOD YOU PROCLAIM TO BE
COM'ON, HOMIE PLEASE
THERE'S NONE ON GOD'S LEVEL SO STOP CALLING YOURSELF HOVA
BELIEVE ME HE DON'T WANT TO BE YOU
SO STOP TRYING TO BE HIM
I THINK IT'S BEST IF I STOP
'COZ I'M LIKE A NATURAL SPRING, ALWAYS FLOWING
SO I CAN GO ON AND ON FOREVER
THIS IS MY THOUGHTS, MY MESSAGE
AND JUST FOR THE RECORD
I DON'T CLAIM TO BE MORE IMPORTANT THAN YOU
WE ARE ALL MADE IN GOD'S IMAGE
I JUST LONG FOR YOU TO STOP MESSING UP THAT BEAUTIFUL IMAGE...
