Godsteppin

[Verse 1]
You were given a chance
To acknowledge my greatness
Benefit of the doubt
I pardon your lateness
More than a feminist
More than a rapping activist with kids
More than a mommy, more than his wifey
More than a journalist
Godsteppin, I'm Godsteppin
See what they done did now
Told them if they pushed us too far I will come out
Remind them that I'm holy
Hands up, don't shoot
If I can't breathe, then you can't breathe
If you rush me, then I rush you
They think they can bury us under the weight of our own oppression
What they didn't know is that tragedy comes with another blessing
And the fire inside of me only grows bigger with every injustice
Jesus wasn't the only one who's crucified in public
I am the sound of a million marches headed to city hall
I am the one that you call when you question if there is a God at all
I don't care who you pray to
Patron saint
God step on these racists
Brown goddess with war paint

[Chorus]
Godsteppin, I'm Godsteppin
See what they done did now
Told them if they pushed us too far I will come out
Bury me in a shallow grave
Next year I bear fruit
Eric Garner, Mike Brown
Hands up, Don't Shoot
Bury me in a shallow grave
Next year I bear fruit
Eric Garner, Mike Brown
Hands up, Don't Shoot
