The Fear of God Songtext

The Fear of God Songtext
One time for the realest
Who show us love
Even though he could kill us
We are
Full of evil
Even in cathedral buildings
Wicked people
Like a CO
On bended knee to our feelings
Who supersede the conceit of a villain
Who blew and breathe in the same air of hustlers who said they ain′t care
How can we dare not reserve fear for God alone?
Erect our own image and with it camouflage His throne
They trying to take the title from the Bible
Trying to redefine the truth and make us feel like we are psychos
Their bullets got our names
And ain't no typos on their rifles
But that′s why we're unashamed
And make no idol of survival
The fear of God got me somewhere up here
The problem with Sodom is they preferred the bottom of the sphere
A clear lack of fear of the name by which one swears
I might appear cavalier and obscene to the average ear
But uh
This is what it is
This ain't what it ain′t
It′s way above your pay grade
Higher than your rank
They told me I should go subliminal
But I can't
Feel like Jeremiah except that fire shut up in my veins
The God of Heaven
Most merciful, holiness manifested
Can′t approach Him like a peasant
He is King, get intoxicated by the smell of victory and sing
To His majesty, 6
The King of Isra-el-o-him
Manna from the clouds
Water from the bricks
Now the bricks give us bread
Till we indicted by the Feds
Or a rival tries to break through
Your vest with a hallow head
When the range is point blank the chance is zero that you'll live
But fear not those
Who kill and go to jail
Fear the one who takes the body
And soul
And send them to hell
Ahhhhh
And I′m not trying hear no prophecy
From Baal
That's probably an atrocity
That′s obviously a fail
And these rappers make a mockery
For a lottery of sales
Hate the sin
But I still love on them
Like I can't even tell
Ahhhhh
The more I discover your love
I feel secure
And I depart from evil
Because of the fear of
... God
Who show us love
Even though he could kill us
We are
Full of evil
Even in cathedral buildings
Wicked people
Like a CO
On bended knee to our feelings
Who supersede the conceit of a villain
Who blew and breathe in the same air of hustlers who said they ain′t care
How can we dare not reserve fear for God alone?
Erect our own image and with it camouflage His throne
They trying to take the title from the Bible
Trying to redefine the truth and make us feel like we are psychos
Their bullets got our names
And ain't no typos on their rifles
But that′s why we're unashamed
And make no idol of survival
The fear of God got me somewhere up here
The problem with Sodom is they preferred the bottom of the sphere
A clear lack of fear of the name by which one swears
I might appear cavalier and obscene to the average ear
