Lyrics:
And this song means a lot to us
I hope you know this song
This is a song called American Jesus by Bad Religion
What?
Yeah
I don't need to be
the house, sheets keep me warm
What I gotta say, day by day, I live my life to you I pray
All my works for your namesake, today I give to you my praise LORD
and stand by me if thou knowst it telling
Yonder peasant, who is he, where and what his dwelling?
Sire, he lives a good league hence, underneath
, way too proud
and think I'd come around at last
He still said son, tell Jesus you're straight
Then things will be great
With what yer going through
of that message
And I'm just excited to be able to share it with you
Hey, justified me, glorified me
Paid my ransom and I've been redeemed by his blood
Go
If you live by it, you goin die by it... that's word on god
Ever since 15 I been duckin the law
Niggas switched on me and it left me a scar
I can't
plastic and brick and glass
Just give me granite and cast iron
I'll build a house
I'll build a house you can be proud of
I'll live in it, I'll die in it
gathered around Jesus, the rock of my soul
Now when Jesus calls me to be one of his angels
The light of God
Will shine on my face
He'll welcome me home
fucking up a lot
Yeah
I don't want a white picket fence around my house
I don't wanna lay inside my bed always be stressing out
Cause my paycheck didn't hit
Swingin', your mood is aiming for the fences playing baseball
You should be a referee with me the way you make calls
When it gets bad why you gotta go and say
or hell can the young black live
Or will he be chained in the cell
I don't know as for me I only trusted a few
I had to hustle to survive now what else
It's dark when I'm about just me myself and my shadow
I'm parro, running out of ammo
And it seems like everyone around me's on the same path so it's
Me and Rich The Kid going crazy
That's on Jesus
Nutted In this nat nat ho and
Told that bitch abort my baby
She ain't going for that
I said she not
Average Joe getting fucked by
Manchin while Biden watches
Them student loans the ropes around
Yo' and I's pockets
Pay to learn to be in debt
While
lives in a
She one of a kind she give me blows that blow my mind
She knows I'm due to shine she wrap her legs around my spine
She tryna keep me stuck
built around Jesus being alive
Everyday I'm living tryin' to show the world why
Christ is more than everything you'll ever try
Better than pretty women
add up all the money that you
Made from every battle that you ever had
That wouldn't even be half of what
I'm getting paid for this you make me sick
Really something
Look at that building
Surrounded by savagery
My bros around it
It's a killing spree
Read about it
Don't talk shit
Knowledge is for free
We
Bitches they be ruthless
I had to tell them though
These niggas ain't ya niggas, watch who you hang around
Cause when they see you fall, they ain't gone be
to miles it does some laps around the sun
Shine everyday around me but y'all still want my
Lil piece of the pie, my, slice of the getting good
Every time
a heart beat before the verse finish
But life goes on, basic rules still apply
And you can feel that lot in any hood that you live by
From Flatbush,
Have an encounter and live to describe it
Most stories would start off by them saying, I Saw my body lying as my spirit ascended
The light surrounded me
for me
Jesus rise for me the homies wouldn't ride for me
I used to slide now the homies won't slide wit me
If you give ya live to Christ then you gone
let you show it
I see it through my eyes that you live life through a lens
Packed your feelings up and around em built a fence
I mean where’s the shame
Discuss these jesus be a fence around me live live by fred hammond Lyrics with the community:
