"Blasphemy"

God has a plan, and the bible unfolds that wonderful plan through the message of prophecy.
God sent Jesus into this world to be our savior.
And that Christ is returning, someday soon, to unfold the wonderful plan of eternity, for my life and your life.
As long as we're cooperating with God, by accepting Jesus Christ as our personal Lord and savior.
Unless the Lord does return in the coming seven days.
We'll see you next time here on This Week in Bible Prophecy.

[Tupac:]
(Tupac don't start that blasphemy in here!)
(Makaveli, the new breed) And I remember what my pops told me
(The new word, follow me) Remember what my pops told me

My family tree, consists of drug dealers thugs and killers
Strugglin', known to hustle screamin' fuck they feelin's
I got advice from my father, all he told me was this
Nigga, get off your ass if you plan to be rich

There's ten rules to the game, but I'll share with you two
Know, niggaz gon' hate you for whatever you do
Now rule one, get your cash on, M.O.B.
That's Money Over Bitches, 'cause they breed envy

Now rule two is a hard one, watch for phonies
Keep yo', enemies close nigga, watch yo' homies
It seemed a little unimportant, when he told me I smiled
Picture jewels bein' handed, to an innocent child

I never knew in my lifetime I'd live by these rules
Initiated as an outlaw, studying rules
Now papa ain't around, so I gotta recall
Or come to grips with bein' written on my enemy's walls (rest in peace)

Promise if I have a seed, I'ma guide him right
Dear Lord don't let me die tonight
I got words for my comrades, listen and learn
Ain't nothin' free, give back what you earn, no doubt

Gettin' higher than a motherfucker, bless me please
This thug life'll be the death of me, c'mon, yeah

And I remember what my papa told me
Remember what my pops told me, blasphemy

[Prince Ital:]
Love for dem dat steal in the name of da Lord
Dem a tell nuff lie but holdin' my bird in a cloud
Usin' de name of de Lord in vain
While de people in de ghetto, feel nuff pain

[Tupac:]
We probably in Hell already, our dumb asses not knowin'
Everybody kissin' ass to go to heaven ain't goin'
Put my soul on it, I'm fightin' devil niggaz daily
Plus the media be crucifyin' brothers severely

Tell me I ain't God's son, nigga mama a virgin
We got addicted had to leave the burbs, back in the ghetto
Doin' wild shit, lookin' at the sun don't pay
Criminal mind all the time, waitin' for Judgment Day

They say Moses split the Red Sea
I split the blunt and rolled a fat one, I'm deadly
Babylon beware, comin' for the Pharoahe's kids, retaliation
Makin' legends off the shit we did, still bullshittin'

Niggaz in Jerusalem, waitin' for signs
God's comin', she's just takin' her time, haha
Livin' by the Nile while the water flows
I'm contemplatin' plots wonderin' where the door to go

Brothas getting shot, comin' back resurrected
It's just that raw shit, nigga check it (that raw shit)

And I remember what my papa told me
Remember what my papa told me, blasphemy

[Prince Ital:]
Love for dem dat steal in the name of da Lord
Dem a tell nuff lie but holdin' my bird in a cloud
Usin' de name of de Lord in vain
While de people in de ghetto, feel nuff pain

[Tupac:]
The preacher want me buried why, 'cause I know he a liar
Have you ever seen a crackhead, pass eternal fire
Why you got these kids minds, thinkin' that they evil
While the preacher bein' freaky you say honor God's people

Should we cry, when the Pope died, my request
We should cry if they cried when we buried Malcolm X
Mama tell me am I wrong, is God just another cop
Waitin' to beat my ass if I don't go pop

Memories of a past time, givin' up cash to the leaders
Knowin' damn well, it ain't gonna feed us
In my brain how can you explain, times in B.C.
It's hard enough to live now, in these times of greed

They say Jesus is a kind man, well he should understand
Times in this crime land, my Thug Nation
Do what you gotta do but know you gotta change
Try to find a way to make it out the game

I leave this and hope God can see my heart is pure
Is heaven just another door? I leave this here
I leave this and hope God see my heart is pure
Is heaven just another door? And my people say

[Prince Ital:]
Love for dem dat steal in the name of da Lord
Dem a tell nuff lie but holdin' my bird in a cloud
Usin' de name of de Lord in vain
While de people in de ghetto, feel nuff pain

Love for dem dat steal in the name of da Lord
Dem a tell nuff lie but holdin' my bird in a cloud
Usin' de name of de Lord in vain
While de people in de ghetto, feel nuff pain

Love for dem dat steal in the name of da Lord
Dem a tell nuff lie but holdin' my bird in a cloud
Usin' de name of de Lord in vain
While de people in de ghetto, feel nuff pain

Love for dem dat steal in the name of da Lord
Dem a tell nuff lie but holdin' my bird in a cloud
Usin' de name of de Lord in vain
While de people in de ghetto, feel nuff pain

[Spoken by Jamala Lesane:]
Our father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name.
Thy kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth, as it is in heaven.
Give us this day, our daily bread, and forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.
Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us, from evil.
For God, is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory forever, and ever, and ever.
