Down On Me
I may gain the world and lose my soul
I don't wanna give up the control
I been tryna get it on my own
You not in the picture
I can't lie I'm on the fence right now
I can't decide if I'm in or out
I can see you sittin' on a cloud
Looking down on me
Haven't been to church in a while
And you would think I never been by the way that I been acting lately
I been smokin' drinkin' fuckin' bitches I might have a baby
Then I pray forgiveness everynight I'm like oh Jesus save me
Oh Jesus save me
I don't wanna go to hell
Mom and dad tried to raise me right they used to swing that belt
I don't care if you worship Zeus Allah Tinkerbell
Long as you show me some respect then I wish you well
I wish you well
What's gonna happen when I close my eyes
I don't know guess that I'm in for surprise
Maybe I'm meeting the man in the sky
Maybe I'll reincarnate as a fly
Who knows
I just hope it's better than this
I guess only thing that I can do is use my gifts
In the richest place on the planet
Not a gold mine or a mansion
I see a tombstone made of granite
Life is too short to take for granted
I may gain the world and lose my soul
I don't wanna give up the control
I been tryna get it on my own
You not in the picture
I can't lie I'm on the fence right now
I can't decide if I'm in or out
I can see you sittin' on a cloud
Looking down on me
Like you ashamed or something
What I do this time
Even when I watch my step I still step on a landmine
You omnipresent you everywhere I can't run I can't hide
But I act like no one's watchin' when I'm in my room and I fantasize
Maybe I need to take another retreat
You been tryna communicate in my dreams
I know there's a God but your name is still a mystery
I still pray over my food
Ten percent I give away too
Guess I gotta have faith it's true
Is it good news or fake news
Guess I'll find out when it's all over
Hope I made the right choice
I ain't tryna listen to your sermon
Listen to my inner voice
I haven't questioned nothin
Since I was a boy
If you an independent thinker
Make a joyful noise
In the richest place on the planet
Not a gold mine or a mansion
I see a tombstone made of granite
Life is too short and then you vanish
I may gain the world and lose my soul
I don't wanna give up the control
I been tryna get it on my own
You not in the picture
I can't lie I'm on the fence right now
I can't decide if I'm in or out
I can see you sittin' on a cloud
Looking down on me
Looking down on me
Looking down on me
Looking down on me
Looking down on me
I don't wanna give up the control
I been tryna get it on my own
You not in the picture
I can't lie I'm on the fence right now
I can't decide if I'm in or out
I can see you sittin' on a cloud
Looking down on me
Haven't been to church in a while
And you would think I never been by the way that I been acting lately

Looking down on me
Looking down on me
Looking down on me
Looking down on me
Looking down on me
