[Verse 1]
DmMy wife said, I can't say Bbno to nobody
DmAnd at this rate we gon' Bbboth die broke
DmGot friends that ask me for Bbmoney knowin' I'm in debt
DmAnd like my wife said, BbI still didn't say no
DmPeople tryna say I'm Bbgoin' crazy on Twitter
DmMy friends' best advice Bbwas to stay low
DmI guess it's hard to decipher Bball of the bills
DmEspecially when you got family Bbmembers on payroll
DmThe media said it was Bboutlandish spendin'
DmThe media said he's Bbway out of control
DmI just feel like I'm the Bbonly one not pretendin'
DmI'm not out of control, BbI'm just not in they control
DmI know I'm the most influential
DmThat TIME cover was just confirmation
AmThis generation's closest thing to Einstein
AmSo don't worry about me, I'm fine
CI can see a thousand years from now in real life
CSkate on the paradigm and shift it when I feel like
GmTroll conventional thought, don't need to question
GmI know it's antiquated so sometimes I get aggressive
DmThank God For Jay Electra, he down with the mission
DmDid it with no permission, on our own conditions
AmMost Blacks with money have been beaten to submission
AmYeezy with the big house, did it way different
CNever listen to Hollywood producers
CDon't stare at money too long, it's Medusa
GmThe ultimate Gemini has survived
GmI wasn't supposed to make it past 25
[Chorus]
DmAnd you're lookin' at the church in the night sky
DmWonderin' whether God's gonna say hi
AmOh, you're lookin' at the church in the night sky
AmAnd you wonder where is God in your nightlife
CYeah, you're lookin' at the church in the night sky
(Father, father, father...)
CWonderin' whether God's gonna say hi
GmThe night sky, yeah, I feel like I'm home, yeah
[Verse 2]
DmI've been wakin' the spirits of millions more to come
DmA million illegally downloaded my truth over the drums
AmI believe in the children, listen to the kids, bro
AmIf the phone ringin', go and get your kids ho
CBrother Don Muhammad told the minister about the presentation
CHe sat back and smiled
GmBlack on black lies is worse than black on black crime
GmThe Jews share their truth on how to make a dime
N.C
Most black men couldn't balance a checkbook
But buy a new car, talkin' 'bout "how my neck look?"
DmWell... it all looks great
DmFour hundred years later, we buyin' our own chains
AmThe light is before us brothers, so the devil workin' hard
AmReal family stick together and see through the mirage
CThe smokescreens, perceptions of false reality
CWho the real owner if your boss gets a salary?
GmI am one with the people
GmI am one with the people (real)
DmI've been woken from enlightened man's dream
DmCheckin' Instagram comments to crowdsource my self esteem
AmLet me not say too much or do too much
AmCause if I'm up way too much, I'm out of touch
CI'm prayin' a out-of-body experience will happen
CSo the people can see my light, now it's not just rappin'
GmGod, I have humbled myself before the court
GmDrop my ego and confidence was my last resort
DmI know, I know he got a plan, I know I'm on your beams
DmOne set of footsteps, you was carryin' me
AmWhen I turned on the news and they was buryin' me
AmOne set of footsteps, you was carryin' me
CWhen I was negotiatin' with Apple, it was Larry and me
CTold Tim Cook to call me, I was scary to see
GmI would've took a hundred million and gave 20 to Hov
GmI heard it's the way they did it when we only had a stove
DmBut it's better that I stayed at home with my folks
DmCause if Jay a billionaire then I'ma never go broke
AmOnly thing I ask is next time I'm on stage we all go
AmWe all go
CNot just by myself, lookin' for niggas like where's Waldo
GmShe got the same shoes as my wife but she copped 'em at Aldo
GmModern day MJ with a off the wall flow
[Bridge]
DmMy life, walk all over me
AmWalk all over me
AmI'm deliverin' everything I've ever sent to you, Cbring
CFly, fly, fly overseas
GmFly overseas
GmOh, anywhere, everything but in between
[Chorus]
DmYeah, you're lookin' at the church in the night sky
DmWonderin' whether God's gonna say hi
AmOh, you're lookin' at the church in the night sky
AmAnd you wonder where is God in your nightlife
CYeah, you're lookin' at the church in the night sky
CWonderin' whether God's gonna say hi
(Father, father, father...)
GmOh, you're lookin' at the church in the night sky
GmAnd you wonder where is God in your nightlife
[Verse 3] (Sampha)
Please face me Dmwhen I speak
Please say to me somethin' Ambefore you leave
You've been treatin' me like I'm Cinvisible
CNow I'm visible to you
Oh the invisible truths Gmthey sold
GmI can't quite understand the games you play
GmUnderstand, understand
DmUnderstand I'm standin' under oath
DmAnd I promised I, I wouldn't fall anymore
But I'm Amcryin' at the bar
AmI'm wishin' that you saw my scars, man
AmI'm wishin' that you came down here
CAnd stood by me
CAnd look at me like you knew me
GmBut I feel so alone
GmLike I don't know anyone except the night sky above
[Chorus]
DmYeah, you're lookin' at the church in the night sky
DmWonderin' whether God's gonna say hi
AmOh, you're lookin' at the church in the night sky
AmAnd you wonder where is God in your nightlife
CYeah, you're lookin' at the church in the night sky
(Father, father, father...)
CWonderin' whether God's gonna say hi
GmOh, you're lookin' at the church in the night sky
GmAnd you wonder where is God in your nightlife
