J. Monty - Mr. Reverend [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Intro]
Yea, whoo!
Real rap, real rap
Real rap, real rap

[Verse 1]
They walk around without Christ, so they feel dejected
Told them time was money, now they tryna make a mill a second
They're still infected by misconception and misdirection
They rock with Satan, but he's equivalent to a fish erection
I write the rhymes that make you spill your breakfast
And help you kill your flesh, and have you mourning like your favorite Millers breakfast
If the Bible was Facebook I'd find the illest method
To write on Paul's Wall like he lived in Texas
And thank him for postin' 'bout the God who heals the wretched
Right now the Church is sin infested, fallin' like some buildin' wreckage
But I know Jesus is the realest bill collector
If you answer when He calls, He'll tell you he paid it all
It's hard to be a Christian, check it
I pulled out this scripture lesson while this lady was pickin' lettuce
She put down the grocery list and went to a whole different section
As Christians we face the biggest rejection
And wearin' His cross on your back will have you with splinters all in your middle section
(Reverend: Uuh, hello?
Devon: Is this the reverend?
Reverend: Bless the God, who is this?
Devon: This is Devon. I'm finna walk in Lily's Mall real quick and steal this necklace. Wonderin' if God would forgive afterwards if I skip confession
Reverend: Listen, brethren
Devon: Yah
Reverend: I know your God's biggest skeptic, but you're gonna go straight to hell, and sit right next to Hitler, Devon
Devon: Damn
Reverend: Now, how much is that necklace you're stealin'?
Devon: Six or seven...
Reverend: It's not worth it
Devon: Thousand
Reverend: Uuh, see, I see, listen Devon. Steal an extra one and stop by my office from ten to seven
Devon: Oh, ok
Reverend: Oh, and Mr. Devon?
Devon: Yes sir?
Reverend: Please don't get arrested)
Simply depressin', tryna get to heaven
Preacher preachin' like they holy, but they livin' reckless
Get to steppin', this my listenin' session
Y'all buried the Great Commission and implemented a different message
But this is not the whole body, this is just a segment
Not every church encrypts the message, and intends to wreck it

[Hook]
The church is speakin', but they hearin' blah, blah, blah
Cause Mr. Reverend's talkin' 'bout the moolah-lah
Prolly hollerin' at them ladies like goo-ga-ga
So if you lookin' for the real, where do you go?
The church is speakin', but they hearin' blah, blah, blah
Cause Mr. Reverend's talkin' 'bout the moolah-lah
Prolly hollerin' at them ladies like goo-ga-ga
So if you lookin' for the real, where do you go?
Ooh-woah-ooh-woah, ooh-woah-ooh-woa
Ooh-woah-ooh-woah
So if you lookin' for the real, where do you go?

[Verse 2]
I'm apart of this body, so I got a right to wash it
I'm not the only one who wants to see Christ exalted
A lot of preachers would put theyself inside a coffin
If they congregation attempted to publicize an audit
Not every ministry's mission field is microscopic
Let's try to find you a church that's makin' Christ the topic
If the Spirit is movin' and they've tried to stop it
They're jealous of Jesus cause they're accustomed to shinin' often
Don't get me wrong, I ain't dissin' church as a whole
Jesus died for the church, so just make sure you discern where you go
Cause some of them ain't concerned for your soul
They just burnin' a hole in your pocket cause they sermons is cold bird

[Break]
I love church, man, I go to church
Phillip Anthony Mitchell, that's my pastor
Victory Church, ATL
Jesus, I love you!
G-O-D, holdin' it down

[Hook]
