Give ’Em Hell

[Intro: Talib Kweli]
Ready or not

[Hook: Coi Mattison, (Talib Kweli)]
We know
That what we reap we sow
But we forget how low
We can go
It’s bad here on Earth, but if we don’t get to heaven
It’s hell (it's all going to)
Hell (it's all going to)
Hell (yup, we living in)
Hell (yup, they giving us)
Hell (it's all going to)
Hell (it's all going to)
Hell (yup, we living in)
Hell (word)

[Verse 1: Talib Kweli]
Every Sunday dressing up catching gossip at its worst
Couldn't see the difference in the Baptist and the Catholic Church
Caught up in the rapture of the first chapter and second verse
If we all God's children, then what's the word of the reverend worth?
Taught early that faith is blind like justice when you facing time
If we all made in God's image, then that means his face is mine
Wait or it's that blasphemy it's logical it has to be
If I don't look like my father, then the way I live is bastardly
Naturally that's confusion to a young'n tryna follow Christ
Taught that if you don't know Jesus, then you lead a hollow life
Never question the fact that Jesus was Jewish not a Christian
Or that Christianity was law according to politicians
Who was King James? And why did he think it was so vital
To remove chapters and make his own version of the Bible?
They say Hell is underground and Heaven is in the sky
And they say that's where you go when you die
But how they know?

[Hook: Coi Mattison, (Talib Kweli)]
We know
That what we reap we sow
But we forget how low
We can go
It’s bad here on Earth, but if we don’t get to heaven
It’s hell (it's all going to)
Hell (it's all going to)
Hell (yup, we living in)
Hell (yup, they giving us)
Hell (it's all going to)
Hell (it's all going to)
Hell (yup, we living in)
Hell (yup, they giving us)

[Verse 2: Talib Kweli]
I've been to many churches, I've quoted many verses
I've dealt with my base self, I controlled my many urges
I used to study my lessons, it was a blessing, not a curse
I learned that Heaven and Hell exist right here on Earth, word
Studied with Rastafarians and learned from the dreads that hell
Is called Babylon and that's where them crazy baldheads dwell
They got us thinking that Muslims like to make bombs
But real Muslims believe in paradise and the resist the Shaitan
So it all sound the same to me
That's why when they say one is right and the other is wrong
It just sound like game to me
It's like God skipped past the church and came to me
No that ain't vein to me
It's just a particular way that I came to see
The difference between those who claim to be
Religious and those that say they spiritual
And recognizing that life is full of miracles
You could see my glow in a rhyme
The poem divine cause it coincide with a grow in the time
That those who looking for God knowin' to go inside

[Hook: Coi Mattison, (Talib Kweli)]
We know
That what we reap we sow
But we forget how low
We can go
It’s bad here on Earth, but if we don’t get to heaven
It’s hell (it's all going to)
Hell (it's all going to)
Hell (yup, we living in)
Hell (yup, they giving us)
Hell (it's all going to)
Hell (it's all going to)
Hell (yup, we living in)
Hell (yup)

[Verse 3]
Living in mass confusion, looking for absolution
The gas seducin' and psychopath produce the last solution
Based on his interpretation of what the words were saying
Trying to get to God but ended up doing the work of Satan
Religion create division, make the Muslim hate the Christian
Make the Christian hate the Jew, make the rules of faith
That you condition to and to you gotta follow
And God forbid you go to Hell
But if you ever walked through any ghetto then you know it well

[Bridge: Lyfe Jennings]
Momma say it's her after me
Preacher say it's blasphemy
I say there's gotta be a better explanation
This dance is just me and you
I pray to God, here's you
Take one look at your rear view
And you can see what I see
That could only mean

[Hook: Coi Mattison, (Talib Kweli)]
We know (hey)
That what we reap we sow
But we forget how low
We can go
It’s bad here on Earth, but if we don’t get to heaven
It’s hell (it's all going to)
Hell (it's all going to)
Hell (yup, we living in)
Hell (yup, they giving us)
Hell (it's all going to)
Hell (it's all going to)
Hell (yup, we living in)
Hell (yup, they giving us)
We know
That what we reap we sow
But we forget how low
We can go
It’s bad here on Earth, but if we don’t get to heaven
It’s hell
Hell
Hell
Hell
Hell
Hell
Hell
Hell

[Outro]
The Lord is my shepherd I shall not want
Just because the lord is my shepherd don't mean I gotta be no sheep
You feel me?
More blood is spilled over religion than anything in world history
We saying the same thing
