Rooftop

I cannot discern profanity from "family first"
Cos uncle Sam been cheating me for all these years
And my aunty Becky keeps adding to it like hello fresh 
I just wanna stay in this pod-casting my fears
I can read between the lines, I can't see the lies
YEET, even all these demons acting civilized
So I'm walking with the Lord getting synchronized
Watching ten thousand fall by side I can sympathize
CAN couldn't a predator but Hansen can
Jesus couldn't get your vote but Obama can
I'm just here walking a rope, I don't need no robe
We don't know what's swinging under there
I'm not one of those
Pardon me to take your time, but I'm one of those
Madame can I tell you bout the Saviour of souls
She say "put on a show, what's on the stove"
I say Jesus is dope, devil is clean
She say "how do you know?"
I say well I don't but won't we see at the rooftop
The rooftop, won't we see at the rooftop, the rooftop

Now Christian soldier act as if
Don't fall behind the enemy line
Don't fall, don't fault, your energy's fine
Forge your words especially right
Get comfy being uncomfortable, trials be intolerable
Let courage be considerable, certainty is unattainable
Take a knee, and raise your fist
You'll raise a brow while doing it
They'll take a bow, head to knee
You'll take a bow you'll pull the strings
But who's pulling your strings
Controls the wind, so it seems
I'm getting winded healing wounds of friends
At my feet while we sing
Elevate ur mind and boy your soul with follow suit
Educate my kind I love how we look classy too
Evaporate the doubt precipitate truth in you
Evaluate time spent forging my silver spoon
Elevate your bank account but keep ur soul grounded
Hate to say but these trees keeping ur mind clouded
All these lies won't keep the truth shrouded
Do all these thoughts keep my mind crowded
Well we go see at the rooftop, the rooftop
Won't we see at the rooftop, the rooftop

Well at the rooftop there'll be no fear
Looking down to see the world right here
Everything that's hidden will come alive
Everything that's dead will come to light

This life is borrowed but people still trying to pay
Dreaming about tomorrow while we still stuck in today
Culture used to push religion, now its pop culture
A lot of division, the problem's on the altar
Told the church I'm gon get tatted up at twenty three
Preacher called me up to the altar say come and see
Look upon these faces, only they need is love
That just happens to be definition of our God
So I'm loving you despite of what I think of you
In times like this I pray for you, and pray for me
That I may see your point of view
Or point me to accepting you
And pray that you don't just see vipers on these pews
You see brothers too
Took me in her arms whispered something inaudible
Took me by surprise I teleported to this booth
To tell you all what I just found in the twelfth book of Luke
Is my story's real or not? I guess we'll see at the rooftop
