"Ms. Holy Roller" lyrics
"Ms. Holy Roller"
Mic check, one two one two
This dedicated to an old friend of mine, Michelle
She a holy roller now, turned over a new leaf
Now everything old gon' burn (please help me not do it again)
[Will Smith:]
Ms. Holy Roller, new angel
With your Bible out shouting and you ringing a bell
Mid-life, reborn! And can't wait to tell
If I don't believe what you believe I'm going to hell
Yo, I've been down with Jesus since Sunday school and Easter speeches
The, Bible was survival that's what my grandma would teach us
Since I was 5 I've been dying and trying to read it
And when I did, it redefined it
Now you was 34 when you found Jesus after your life fell to pieces
Wife two times with two guys, now enlightening speeches
Seem to flow out your mouth with the hype of a preacher
Took your whole life to reach ya, now I'm a trifling creature?
Ms. Holy Roller, new angel
With your Bible out shouting and you ringing a bell
Mid-life, reborn! And can't wait to tell
If I don't believe what you believe I'm going to hell
C'mon, if I die right this second, I reckon that God
Would simply check into my life and times, dissecting my rhymes
He'll see how I've been leading his troops
You can't do dirt your whole life and say "Oops!"
Now where was Jesus when you was cheating and you was deceiving me?
Where was Jesus when you was greedy, your lawyers was bleeding me?
Where was Jesus when every weekend, a new man was living with you
Oh wait, he was with me, trying to keep me from killing you!
Now where was Jesus when you was lying and you was betraying me?
When I was trying to make it and you was hating delaying me huh?
Where was Jesus when the ICE was thrilling ya?
Oh wait, he was with me, trying to keep me from killing ya!
If I ain't know Jesus, ain't no telling where I would be
It's been nights I felt like faeces, I needed to fight to release it
I'm in the limelight, it's hot and the heat is ceaseless and
Holding my tongue while lil' bums cut me to pieces
The only reason's 'cause I studied the life of Jesus and
Venting with my pen and intending to write and release it
But when an ex-friend slight me and slam me with venom
I hate it, I can't stand, damn it I really resent it
I always strive to be righteous, my version of God
The reason why I never write rap verses with curses inside
The reason I never purposely hurt persons I've applied
Many teachings of God, searching the reaches of God
Pondered the mysteries of why you be dissing me
I adore you, all I hope for you is freedom from misery
You made mistakes and blunders, you breaking from under but yo
If I'm going to hell, it's making me wonder
The greatest atrocities ever committed on this planet have been in the name of God
This country was founded by the Puritans for the express purpose of oppression free worship
Your attitude is the same arrogant, fearful fundamentalism
That fueled the hatred of the Crusades and the attacks of 9/11
If we are not allowed to worship God as groups and individuals free from persecution
And respect for tolerance, there's only one outcome
Ms. Holy Roller, new angel
With your Bible out shouting and you ringing a bell
Mid-life, reborn! And can't wait to tell
If I don't believe what you believe I'm going to hell, yo
Ms. Holy Roller, new angel
With your Bible out shouting and you ringing a bell
Mid-life, reborn! And can't wait to tell
If I don't believe what you believe I'm going to hell
