Listen to the preacher man
But are you talkin' to me
I can't hear you with a mouth full of pig's feet
If i should need the swine flesh

Your body is a mess but you're blessed
With a father, son, spirit and the holy ghost
But my whole neighborhood is comatose
Lookin' for survival

The devil made you a slave and he gave you a bible
400 years gettin' our ass kicked
By so-called christians and catholics
But i watch 'em burn in a fire

See i'm a g, that's why i ain't in your choir
'cause i see, 'cause i know
The church ain't nothin' but a fashion show
Get the devil to a 187
And they won't call me a nigga when i get to heaven

You're waitin' for the devil to come from the ground
Clown, take a look around
Just look at the cross that the priest is holdin'
A beast in sheep's clothing

But i'm rollin' with that knowledge of self
'cause heaven ain't just wealth
So mister preacher, if i couldn't pay my tithe
Do i have to wait outside?

White man, please take another look
'cause we couldn't be readin' out of the same book
'cause you'se a crook and i'm a brother
King james had sex with his mother

Is that your edition? is that your religion?
Black man, you gotta make a desicion
'cause god is comin' on day number seven
And he won't call me a nigga when i get to heaven

The same white man that threw me in the slammer
He bombed the church in alabama
So if i cock the hammer, god won't mind
If i have to kill the human swine

'cause god is a killer from the start
Why you think noah had to build his ark
And god is a man from his feet to his hair
That's why you say 'amen' after each and every prayer

I just stare at the church man
Spendin' more money on the church band
But elijah's got a plan
Got the white man screamin' "damn that farrakhan"

'cause one day these babies are uprise
Much more than bowties and bean pies
Kickin' knowledge at 7-11
And they won't call me a nigga when i get to heaven
