Baptize

(album: As I Am - 2022)

Now, this Sunday, we gon' do it a little bit different
We gon' have a selection from one of our very own
Choir, you know what to do
Take it from the top, let's go!

I'm just gon' sing like the children's choir (I'm gon' sing)
Every night, I pray for the the one locked up looking at barbed wire (Every night I pray)
Posting at that Shell, we went through Hell, and it caught fire (Went through hell)
I was living insane, I had to go change, I smelled like diapers (Crazy)
I'm kicking the doors of the church house (Church)
But they rather we go and get burnt off
I put double G all on my church socks (My church socks)
I did let my light shine in the worst spot
I go hard in the paint on the first shot (Yeah)
I can turn up your city the first stop (Woo)
I ain't tryna go sit where the feds be
So I had to go dip in the Red Sea (C'mon)

Baptize me
Baptize me
Baptize me
Baptize me
Baptize me
Baptize me (Hands up!)
Trap guys, yeah (Yeah)
Baptize (C'mon, one, two, three, woo!)
Baptize

Granny used to wake me up talking bout, "Time for y'all to go to Church"
Ain't no weapon gon' form, but when I see that belt, it ain't gon' work
Passing out the white circle bread, but I'm really used to them Percs
Pray for me, pray for me
Tryna make a way for me, way for me
Taking up offerings (Yeah)
Used to be broke back then, but [?]
Repenting my sins
But I just do it again, I fell in the deep end
In the holding cell like every weekend
I ain't tryna go sit where the feds be
So I had to go dip in the Red Sea

Baptize me (Baptize)
Baptize me (Woo)
Baptize me (Baptize)
Baptize me (Baptize)
Baptize me (Baptize)
Baptize me (Hands up!)
Trap guys, yeah (Yeah)
Baptize (C'mon!)
Baptize

Take me down to the water
Lord, I'm ready for a dip
Take my wrath, put it in honor
Coming on with the drip
I'ma count on my head to the (Baptize)
To the souls on my feet, I'ma need you to (Baptize)
Woah!

Baptize (Baptize me)
Baptize (Baptize me)
Baptize (Baptize me)
Baptize (Baptize me)
