lirik lagu j. monty - city on his back
[chorus]
okay, i’m not goin’ back
i got this cross on my back
cross on my back
death came, but god chose to act
he put the city on, the city on, the city on, the city on his back
okay, it’s really on his back
my shame and all my pity on his back
there’s plenty souls intact
’cause christ put so many on his back
he put the city on, the city on, the city on, the city on his—
[verse 1]
ayy, okay, humble yourself and go pray for the trench
there’s too many chasin’ religion who ain’t never been face~to~face with a gremlin
i can’t worship this rap, everything that i do for the one who was slain that was risen
this young rapper told me he married the game, now i see why he stayed with the missus
hey, okay, i can’t do no fakin’ and switchin’
walkin’ with christ on the floor, eatin rice, i can’t do no occasional christian
did you really pick up your cross or is you only here for the fame and the riches?
if you worship god over money then where was your faith when your payment was missin’?
huh, huh, huh, huh, huh, fresh plate come straight out the kitchen
hate, they know i been a rebel, they slidin’ on treble way back when n0body would listen
i might stomp on a demonic rapper, can’t none of them hang with the way that we spittin’
i told ’em, “mind your pyramid,” just like the ancient egyptians
woah, oh no, had to turn off your vision, my dog
i can’t listen to all the bull in your audible, we skippin’ through it, my dog
huh, i ain’t listenin’ to rod wave, but i know the one who opened up the waves with a rod
and freed all the slaves from the fraud
and took all my shame and my flaws, that’s god
[chorus]
okay, i’m not goin’ back
i got this cross on my back
cross on my back
death came, but god chose to act
he put the city on, the city on, the city on, the city on his back
okay, it’s really on his back
my shame and all my pity on his back
there’s plenty souls intact
’cause christ put so many on his back
he put the city on, the city on, the city on, the city on his—
[verse 2]
ayy, been a soldier since back in the yoder, and still i’m enlisted
ayy, i was lookin’ at horror through them horoscopes, i ain’t know i was playin’ with witches
around me, ain’t no zodiac sign finna ever get mentioned
ayy, if i speak on a gemini it’s ’cause the weight that i’m benchin’, the bars that i’m liftin’
i’ve been overhead like a tall fellow and my son like a paul meadow
i was higher than falsetto, had to get off the tree like a leaf when the fall settle
they know i might wrestle opp devils for the god who came out of a small ghetto
and bought several lost rebels on the cross, gotta word on my tongue when i talk, yeah
[chorus]
okay, i’m not goin’ back
i got this cross on my back
cross on my back
death came, but god chose to act
he put the city on, the city on, the city on, the city on his back
okay, it’s really on his back
my shame and all my pity on his back
there’s plenty souls intact
’cause christ put so many on his back
he put the city on, the city on, the city on, the city on his—
