[Ma$e]

This song right here changed my life... come on, come on!



[Kanye West]

God show me the way, now the devil can't break me down



[Verse 1: Common]

Open your eyes, there's smoke in the skies

The Beast is holdin' a lies

Everywhere we move, motion denied

Emotion derived from posters of pride

Of African, cultures and tribes

Who live when we suppose they die

Laugh when we suppose they cry

The pain we holding inside

Cause all we really know is survive

Use that to remember we're kings

That's why we so addicted to diamonds and rings

And cutless supremes

Seen Diana Ross remember that my sisters is queens

The Lord is coming -- for now, he visit in dreams

For every mission it seems impossible

Speak to the gospel to remind me what God can do

When it's not logical

To those in hospitals and prisons

Low-income living

For them I say a prayer keep giving

Learning to receive

My heart is burnin' to achieve

Even when it's hard to breathe, I still believe that





God show me the way, now the devil can't break me down

The only thing that I pray is that my feet don't fail me now

And now I think there is something that I can say now that'll right my wrongs

I finally talked to God, I ain't afraid cause His love is so strong



[Verse 2: Kanye West]

Jesus walk with me, he walk with the sinners cause I know I am

But I ain't no loser, I'm a winner and I know I can

Overcome the devil for he get the best of me

My daddy always said G-O-D gon' have tests for me

Illegally they told me to lie when they question me

But God sent an angel that said the truth will set you free

So in the midst of getting sued for more than my deal

I admitted I fell asleep at the wheel

Cause I realized I could've died, he saved me

Every single hit that got played he gave me

People ask me "Do you read your Bible?"

"It could help out when you need revival"

There's something about this beat that get me tranquilized

And when I play it at my shows I feel sanctified

And he give me direction when I can't decide

He is alive! How could you tell me that he ain't when I said

[Verse 3: Ma$e]

Before you take my name, take my fame

While you at it 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, that's why I say what I'm saying

And the only thing the radio is playing

Is because you be paying

It ain't about who really hot no more

Beasts will knock no more

So who cares who flop 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 old 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 in Marbres

With me, it's not just bars of music

I walk with God, I got the scars to prove it



[Kanye West]

God show me the way, now the devil can't break me down

The only thing that I pray is that my feet don't fail me now



[Outro: Ma$e]

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 with me, walk, walk, walk with me

Walk with me
