Faith feat. Bj The Chicago Kid & Punch歌词
Cloud nine Kendrick Lamar
Uh
I take a sip of Hennessy
And then get pissy drunk
I ain't a drinker I'm a thinker
Call it what you want
But if you turn your back
Know that you just missed your chance
To witness the realest
**** that's ever been told to man
I found myself losing focus
At a Sunday service
Embarrassed so I started questioning God
What is my purpose
He say to live the way he did
That's all he want from me
Spread the word and witness
He rose on the first Sunday
I said alright
Enthused that my Lord gave a listen
I opened my bible and searched
To be a better Christian
And this from a person that
Never believed in religion
But **** my life is so ****** up man
I can't help but give in
I'm giving testimonies
To strangers I never met
Hopped on the pulpit
And told 'em how I was truly
Blessed
Felt like I'm free from all
My sins when the service was over
Walked out the church then
Got a call that my homie was murdered
And lost my faith again
What am I gonna do
Gotta have faith
Life is too much
Understood
Where is your faith
Oh faaaaaaaith
All you need is the size
Of a mustard seed
Single black parent from
Compton raising children of four
That's four innocent bastards
Cause papa they don't know
Her day consists of working back
And forth with babysitters
Can't find no one to watch
Her kids so she pay her sister
Her baby daddy ain't bout ****
That ***** ain't bout ****
Spent his daughter milk just
To cop a new outfit
She pray to God every night
Hoping that he'll mature
And maybe one day his kids
Something that he'll live for
Baby wanna go back to school
But she need some help
Because it's hard tryna pay
The bills when you're by yourself
She thought about credit card
Scams till she heard a voice
That said the Devil is a lie
Make a better choice
And so it's back to McDonald's
And every month dealing
With them crazy ass people
At the county building
Looked to the heavens and asked 'em
To make a better way
Then got a letter in the mail
Lost her section 8
Then lost her faith again
What am I gonna do
Gotta have faith
Life is too much
Understood
Where is your faith
Oh faaaaaaaith
All you need is the size of a mustard seed

I had dreams of holding
A nine-milla to raise Killa
Ask him why as my eyes fill up
Each day it gets more realer
Orangutans bang like gorillas
It's jungle when the ****** ensue
The rat's lurking
Vulture's circling the serpents
Cats lying through they teeth
My ***** didn't deserve it
I flirted with the idea
Of caressing the steel
To make karma come faster
Than she normally will
It's ill to see my faith
Try and leave me
It's so hard to get it
To get rid of it is easy
I'm tryna reach cloud nine
That's what my ****** bout
But it never rain
In California 'less them pistols out
Until then my feet
Planted on the ground
Shadowboxing my conscience
Till my faith start responding
And if I get no answer
Just know I tried
I should have never
Looked into his son's eyes
Ray Charles voice
What am I gonna do
Gotta have faith
Life is too much
Understood
Where is your faith
Oh faaaaaaaith
All you need is the size of a mustard seed
This for my people that
Stressing whenever times is hard
Your mind's slipping
Wondering is there really a God
Knowing you shouldn't think
That way and tryna freeze your brain
But whenever it's pain
That feeling forever remains
We can't believe what we can't see
And reality seems stronger than prayer
Cause you tried to change your life
And now you live in a wheelchair
And your son was born with cancer
And he live in urgent care
At the tender age of twelve
And you feel that no one cares
Searching for answers that's human nature
You ain't in the wrong
Just know when you feeling
That way his spirit's in the room
I watched people I know pray
And catch the Holy Ghost
And wonder why I ain't never
Caught that feeling before
Maybe they know him better
Or I don't know no better
But what I do know is that
He's real and he lives forever
So the next time you feel
Like your world's about to end
I hope you studied because
He's testing your faith again
I'd rather not live
Like there isn't a God
Than die and find out there really is
Think about it
