Kanye West
Jesus Walks (Demo)
[Intro]
I need to recoupe all the soldiers, all the guy soldiers
We at war
We at war with society, racism, terrorism
But most of all we at war with ourselves

[Chorus]
(Jesus, walk)
God show me the way because the Devil's tryna break me down
(Jesus, walk with me)

[Verse 1]
You know what the Midwest is? Young and restless
Where restless (N***as) might snatch your necklace
And next these (N***as) might jack your Lexus
Somebody tell these (N***as) who Kanye West is
I walk through the valley of the Chi where death is
Top floor the view alone will leave you breathless *gasps*
Try to catch it *gasps* it's kinda hard
Getting choked by detectives, yeah, yeah, now check the method
They be askin' us questions, harass and arrest us
Sayin' "We eat pieces of shit like you for breakfast"
Huh? Y'all eat pieces of shit? What's the basis?
We ain't going nowhere but got suits and cases
A trunk full of coke, rental car from Avis
My mama used to say only Jesus can save us
Well mama I know I act a fool
But I'll be gone 'til November, I got packs to move
I hope
[Chorus]
(Jesus, walk)
God show me the way because the Devil's tryna break me down
(Jesus, walk with me)
The only thing that I pray is that my feet don't fail me now
(I want Jesus) (Jesus, walk)
And I don't think there's nothin' I can do now to right my wrongs
(To walk with me) (Jesus, walk with me)
I wanna talk to God but I'm afraid 'cause we ain't spoke in so long
(I want Jesus) (Jesus, walk)
God show me the way because the Devil's tryna break me down
(To walk with me) (Jesus, walk with me)
The only thing that I pray is that my feet don't fail me now
(In your light) (Jesus, walk)
And I don't think there's nothin' I can do now to right my wrongs
(In your light) (Jesus, walk with me)
I wanna talk to God but I'm afraid 'cause we ain't spoke in so long
(I want Jesus to walk with me) (Jesus, walk with me)
