Can’t Tell Me Nothing (Sunday Service Choir)
[Verse 1]
I had a dream I could buy my way to Heaven
When I awoke, I spent that on a necklace
I told God I'd be back in a second
Man, it's so hard not to act reckless
To whom much is given, much is tested
Get arrested, guess until he get the message
I feel the pressure, under more scrutiny
And what I do? Act more stupidly
Bought more jewelry, more Louis V
My mama couldn't get through to me
The drama, people suing me
I'm on TV talking like it's just you and me
I'm just saying how I feel, man
I ain't one of the Cosbys, I ain't go to Hillman
I guess the money should've changed him
I guess I should've forgot where I came from

[Chorus]
Ahhh la la la la
Our Lord and savior, Jesus Christ
Accept and receive eternal life
Aaahhh, they can't tell me nothing
Uh uh, they can't tell me nothing
They can't tell me nothing
Uh uh, they can't tell me nothing
Ahhh la la la la, our Lord and savior, Jesus Christ
Accept and receive eternal life
Aaahhh, they can't tell me nothing
Uh-uh, they can't tell me nothing
They can't tell me nothing
Uh uh, they can't tell me nothing
[Interlude]
See the devil will make you think if you follow God, you finna fall off
We put these tickets on sale in the morning and they sold out in the morning
Nah I'm saying I be in the studio
And people come up to me like "Man, you better not [?], you better not do this"
And then they'll play songs that's all like "I was with these girls like this, I did this girl", all this type of stuff
Basically sayin' like, kook, if you follow God you finna fall off
That Jesus came number one, 3 weeks that Jesus born
But not just that, finding that peace inside you
Not just the numbers
God using us to show off
To show God is better than the Devil
The Devil took all the producers, the musicians, the designers
Moved us all out to Hollywood, moved us all out to New York
Chasing ghost statues
Literally signing a contract to selling our souls
They got contracts out there that say you can't say "Jesus"
When we was working on this album people used to be coming over the studio just to say "Jesus" as loud as they wanted to
You can say Jesus in Ye's studio
You see, I'm like one of them, I'm like a uh, uh, a Nineteen Star Michelin chef
The way I cook up, you know what I'm saying
But if the Devil have you serving 8 restaurants at one time
It might drive you crazy
And one of the restaurants could be your own ego
One of them restaurants could be public opinion
One of them restaurants could be legacy
One of them restaurants could be fame
One of them restaurants could be money
But there's only one restaurant we servin' for tonight
And I said tonight 'cause I be in the future sometimes
And that's God's restaurant
Where everybody coming as service to God
[Verse 2]
And he bringing it back tenfold, a hundredfold, a millionfold, blessings untold
Blessings hearted in gold, stronger than a goal, I returned my soul
To the one that chose me, the one that owns me, the ones that shows me
And that's what God showed me
The Devil controlled me but he can't hold me
'Cause God control me and life has showed me
That God is the only, the real not the phony
The phony would clone me, just watch how they cloned me
And look what he's shown me
I'm here with more homies
I'm here with my families
I don't need a Grammy
I'm back in the building
I'm here with my children
You know it's a feeling, you know it's a feeling
You know it's a feeling

[Outro]
Ahhh la la la la (Yeah, that's that feeling!)
Ahhh la la la la (Yeah, that's that feeling!)
Ahhh la la la la (Yeah, that's that feeling)
La la la la yay
For my Lord and savior, Jesus Christ
Ohhh, ah-ah, ayy
And that's why they can't tell me nothing
La-la-la-la, our Lord and savior Jesus Christ
Laaa la la la la
Accept and receive eternal life
Aaah (They can't tell us nothing, uh-uh!)
Yea
U-uh-uh-ey, they can't tell us nothing
They can't tell us nothing
They can't tell us nothing
