[Verse 1 - John Givez]
Amen, one time
Let the church say amen, the preacher in the
Pulpit would say ain't no fearing when you got the Holy
Spirit where you been, John 3:
16 sing a hymn, Johnny he was
16 with a vengeance for the
Perpetrator with the long sharp blade who would put
16 in his friend, mamma crying saying
Boy your life is worth much more
Why you wanna go and be a thug for
Mamma every time I go to church when I walk
Outside they be asking where I'm from or
Who them black n***as that you hang with
Mamma why this church so dangerous
You can't even walk to your car after choir practice
Lord would You please send an angel, c'mon
[Hook - John Givez]
Holy Father
God my Father
I'm a eastside churchboi in trouble
I'm a eastside churchboi in trouble
Run from the violence, run from the violence, run from the violence, run
Run from the violence, run from the violence, run from the violence, run
Run from the violence, run from the violence, run from the violence, run
Run from the violence, run from the violence, run from the violence, run
[Verse 2 - John Givez]
Yeah we having church in here
But them boys outside with the k**ing
Meanwhile the preacher telling me if I would pay
My tithes Lord willing grandma-ma catch a healing
I think I need to pray for a minute
I don't even know what to say I been sinning
They tell me look upon Your face for repentance
But my vision is distorted all that I can see is images of
Rebels in an all out gun war
Lord I think I'm walking through the valley
I know you tell me not to fear evil but I feel like
The product of it can You take it out me
Body Yours for Sunday on a stop sign
Eastside crook my gangstas
Story of a eastside churchboi d**h through the
Viewing Lord I really wanna thank You, c'mon
[Hook]
