How to Impress God

I had a year full of tour dates, last I checked
I said I'd never go and change, and got dressed
It felt like I heard God say, "I'm not impressed"
Had opps for press, but I'm not pressed
She said, "I love you anyway," from my mess
I'm tryin' to think of shit to say, so I'd match
Instead, I heard God say, "I'm not impressed," yeah

I'm not impressed by your jewels, your cars, your clothes
Of course, I know what it took you to get it
I'm not impressed by Pivot or that you independent
I'm not impressed, time invested in any women

I'm not impressed your family feel you really did it
I'm not impressed you streamed over 200 million
I'm not impressed, bought a crib, put your people in it
I'm not impressed, the years that you've been gettin' bigger

I'm not impressed that you've inspired millions of people
That needed you, or so you believe they do
They gave you a reason to live and make it easy to
Propelled you from poverty, practically a vehicle

Packin' out arenas will not impress me either, who?
Do you try to pretend to be? Don't you know I'm seeing you?
Don't you know I gave you keys before you had a piano?
Don't you know you enough?

I had a year full of tour dates, last I checked
I said I'd never go and change, and got dressed
It felt like I heard God say, "I'm not impressed"
Had opps for press, but I'm not pressed
She said, "I love you anyway," from my mess
I'm tryin' to think of shit to say, so I'd match
Instead, I heard-

Enough of what I'm not, let's talk of what I am
I am the light and the guide to the game
Since you was on Austin, I'd intervene
At times (at times), the paths (the paths) divine (divine)
No two (two) the same (the same)

I am a mathematician, you see
They want me to show my face, but it isn't to see
I'm in you, you see, all of your decisions you reap
The Reaper really not grim, that's a different thing

I listen to you, make sure that you listen to me
The life that you wanted real, it isn't a dream
I sent obstacles on your way to make sure this what you mean
Some of 'em was bigger than beasts, you fear 'em the least

I even sent someone to pretend they didn't believe
I sent people to complicate all the simplest things
The fact that you showed up here is not a surprise
But Saba, you showed love, and that's all I required

I had a year full of tour dates, last I checked
I said I'd never go and change, and got dressed
It felt like I heard God say, "I'm not impressed"
Had opps for press, but I'm not pressed
She said, "I love you anyway," from my mess
I'm trying to think of shit to say, so I'd match
Instead, I heard-

Instead, I heard-
