2:30How great how great how great
2:39Is our god
2:54The first is that god is better than the world's best thing
3:01God is better than the best thing that the world has to offer
3:09Magnify magnify lift it on high
3:12Spit it spotify to qualify a spot on his side
3:16I cannot modify or ratify my momma made me apple pies
3:19Lullabies and alibis
3:21The book don't end with malachi
3:22Devil will win employee of the month by the dozen
3:25'Til one score and three years from the third when he doesn't
3:28My village raised 'em a child
3:30Come through the crib and it's bustin'
3:31You meet anyone from my city they gon' say that we cousins
3:35Shabach barak edify
3:37Electrify the enemy like hedwig till he petrefied
3:40Any petty peter petigrew could get the pesticide
3:4379 th 79 th I don't believe in science
3:46I believe in signs
3:47Don't believe in signing I seen dollar signs
3:50Color white collar crime
3:51Good god the gift of freedom
3:53Hosena santa invoked and woke up slaves
3:56From south hampton to chatham manor
3:58My dream girl's behind me feel like I'm james early
4:01The type of worship make jesus come back a day early
4:04With the faith of a pumpkin-seed-sized mustard seed
4:07Here for I will speak noble things as they trusted me
4:10Only righteous I might just shrug at the skullduggery
4:13I couldn't stand to see another rapper lose custody
4:16Exalt exalt glorify
4:18Descend upon the earth with swords
4:20And fortify the borders where your shoulders lies
4:22I used to hide from god
4:24Ducked down in the slums like shhh
4:28I was lost in the jungle like simba after the death of mufasa
4:31No hog no meerkat hakuna matata by day
4:34But I spent my night time fighting tears back
4:36I prayed and prayed and left messages
4:37But never got no hear back or so it seemed
4:40A mustard seed was all I needed to sow a dream
4:42I build the ark to gently gently row my boat down noah's stream
4:45Sometimes the path I took to reach my petty goals was so extreme
4:49I was so far down in the mud couldn't even let my light shine
4:52But she was always there
4:52When I needed to phone a friend or use a life line
4:55From a lofty height we wage war
4:56On the poltergeist to exalt the christ
4:58Spark the dark with the pulse of light
5:00Strike a corpse with a pulse of life
5:01I spit on the tidal it's tidal waves
5:03I spit on the apple and kill a worm
5:05A fire in cali will swallow a valley
5:06For every african village burned
5:08Jay elect would've never made it
5:09O' son of man o' son of man
5:11Who was the angel in revelations
5:12With the foot on water and the foot on land
5:14Who was the angel that rode a harley
5:16From the project to the house of parliament
5:17And opened the book in the devil's chamber
5:19And put the true name of the lord in it
5:21Old jerusalem new jerusalem
5:22Cuff lights these beats with a ball of fire
5:24They poisoned the scripture
5:24And gave us the pictures of false messiahs
5:26It was all a lie
5:27Mystery babylon tumbling down
5:29Satan's establishment crumbling down
5:30This is the year that I come for the crown
5:32Bury my enemies under the ground
Sing with me how great is our god All will see how great is our god How great is our god Sing with me how great is our god All will see how great how great is our god Name above all names Worthy of all praise And my heart will sing how great is our god Name above all names Worthy of all praise And my heart will sing how great is our god How great is our god Sing with me how great is our god All will see how great is our god How great is our god Sing with me how great is our god All will see how great how great how great How great how great how great Is our god The first is that god is better than the world's best thing God is better than the best thing that the world has to offer Magnify magnify lift it on high Spit it spotify to qualify a spot on his side I cannot modify or ratify my momma made me apple pies Lullabies and alibis The book don't end with malachi Devil will win employee of the month by the dozen 'Til one score and three years from the third when he doesn't My village raised 'em a child Come through the crib and it's bustin' You meet anyone from my city they gon' say that we cousins Shabach barak edify Electrify the enemy like hedwig till he petrefied Any petty peter petigrew could get the pesticide 79 th 79 th I don't believe in science I believe in signs Don't believe in signing I seen dollar signs Color white collar crime Good god the gift of freedom Hosena santa invoked and woke up slaves From south hampton to chatham manor My dream girl's behind me feel like I'm james early The type of worship make jesus come back a day early With the faith of a pumpkin-seed-sized mustard seed Here for I will speak noble things as they trusted me Only righteous I might just shrug at the skullduggery I couldn't stand to see another rapper lose custody Exalt exalt glorify Descend upon the earth with swords And fortify the borders where your shoulders lies I used to hide from god Ducked down in the slums like shhh I was lost in the jungle like simba after the death of mufasa No hog no meerkat hakuna matata by day But I spent my night time fighting tears back I prayed and prayed and left messages But never got no hear back or so it seemed A mustard seed was all I needed to sow a dream I build the ark to gently gently row my boat down noah's stream Sometimes the path I took to reach my petty goals was so extreme I was so far down in the mud couldn't even let my light shine But she was always there When I needed to phone a friend or use a life line From a lofty height we wage war On the poltergeist to exalt the christ Spark the dark with the pulse of light Strike a corpse with a pulse of life I spit on the tidal it's tidal waves I spit on the apple and kill a worm A fire in cali will swallow a valley For every african village burned Jay elect would've never made it O' son of man o' son of man Who was the angel in revelations With the foot on water and the foot on land Who was the angel that rode a harley From the project to the house of parliament And opened the book in the devil's chamber And put the true name of the lord in it Old jerusalem new jerusalem Cuff lights these beats with a ball of fire They poisoned the scripture And gave us the pictures of false messiahs It was all a lie Mystery babylon tumbling down Satan's establishment crumbling down This is the year that I come for the crown Bury my enemies under the ground
