Kanye West feat. Common & Mase Jesus Walks - ']['he HawK Lyrics

(Mase) - Yeah! Uh,

(Kanye) - Jesus, Jesus walks with me-repeated-

(Mase) - This song right here changed my life... come on, come on!

-Jesus Walks-
(Kanye) God show me the way, now the devil can't break me down
-Jesus walk with me-

(Verse One - Kanye)

Between the girls and the jury
The devil try and lure me, in view of me
(Mase) Jesus walks wit me
My Pastor shakin' his head,
He ain't sure of me, but surely
(Mase) Jesus walks wit me,
And he asked, do you say your prayers
At least two a week?
I ain't talking to god,
I know what I've been doin' G
Do you know how I be embarrassed?
My prayers sound like Ben Stiller's on Meet the Parents
And I ain't good, what they give us this day
The slaves is trying to give us as free,
I'm trying to give us as pay
Man, you know how 'dem strippers was
We was all 'ghetto fabulous'
All at the rooms in the sibyrus
From this Jacuzzi water,
Can you cleanse us?
Can you please unfog my Cartier Lenses?
God sends signs sometimes only in glimpses
For me I almost died,
Falling asleep in them Benz's
It's something about this beat that get me tranquilized
And when I play it at my shows I feel sanctified
And he gives me direction when I can't decide
He is alive
How can you tell me that he ain't,
When I said,

-Jesus Walks-
(Kanye) God show me the way, now the devil can't break me down
-Jesus walks with me-
(Kanye) The only thing that I pray is that my feet don't fail me now
-I want Jesus-
(Kanye) And now I think there is something that I can say now that'll right my wrongs
-Jesus walks with me-
(Kanye) I finally talked to God, I ain't afraid 'cuz his love is so strong

(Verse 2 - Common)

Open your eyes, Theres smoke in the sky
The beasts is holdin a lies
Everywhere we move most is denied,
And most is derived from posters of pride of Africa,
Cultures and tribes who live when we suppose they die
Who laugh when we suppose they cry
The pain we holdin in side
Cause all we really know is survive
Use that to remember we kings
Thats why we so addicted to diamonds and rings
And cutless supremes
Seen Diana Ross remember that my sisters is Queens the Lord is coming
But now we visiting dreams
For every mission it seems impossible
Speak to the Gospel to remind me what God can do,
When its not logical
To those in hospitals and prisons,
Low income livin
For them I say a prayer keep givin only to resive
My heart is burnin to achieve
Even when its hard to breath I still believe that,

(Verse 3 - Mase)

Come on, Come on,
Before you take my name
Take my fame
Why you had to take my shame?
Take my flaws
Take my blame
Feel my dirt,
Conceal my hurt
See my bruise
Do this and you will walk in my shoes
You wasn't there when I was in deep thought
When I had two choice,
Kill him, or either leave New York
But I'm a truth teller (yeah,)
That's why I say what I'm saying (yeah)
And the only thing the radio is playing
Is because you be payin'
It ain't about who really hot no more
Beasts will knock no more
So who cares?
Who flock no more?
I realize that most labels pay you for lies
And only law dudes can disguise
That your favorite artist (shhh)
I know you hear that (huh?)
You wanna fear that? (what?)
Your worst dream is that you was gonna hear that
icon to rap is like John the Baptist
Prepared the way,
For what I came to say today
They deceived us,
Having thinking Jesus
Really didn't need us
When he loved the ol' days
He loved them boys in the hallway up in broadway
Even those who be here for dope, every four days
To the strippers in broad day up in Norway
To the Detroit player gators up in Marbres
With me, its not just bars of music
I walk with god
I got the scars to prove it

-Jesus Walks-
(Kanye) God show me the way, now the devil can't break me down
-Jesus walks with me-
(Kanye) The only thing that I pray is that my feet don't fail me now

(Outro - Mase)

Everybody out there,
Just lift your hands right now
Just say this with me
Father, I thank you
For forgiving me of everything I've ever done
For Jesus walking with me
For dying for me
Raising for me
And all my sins have been forgiven
I'm a changed man
I'm healed, I'm delivered, I'm rich
And it's all because of him
Now walk with me
Walk wit me, walk, walk, walk wit me
Walk wit me
