On God

build it with a contrast: verses = gritty, clever, rapid-fire rap, while the hook opens up with choir/orchestra energy.

ON GOD

Yeah…

I don’t know who needs to hear this…

But everything I’m about to say is true.

On God.

I woke up late this morning — on God.

I hit snooze like eight times — on God.

I ain’t even wanna get outta bed — on God.

But I did.

Why?

’Cause I had to take a piss.

On God.

⸻

I said I’m on my way, I was still in my bed,

Said I’m almost there, I ain’t even dressed,

Told my girl “five minutes,” five minutes became ten,

Then another fifteen—

I needed the bathroom again.

On God.

I got twenty dollars, swear I ain’t broke,

Got a little bit of gas and a little bit of hope,

Got a dream in my chest and some change in my coat,

Got a text from my mama—

I don’t know what she wrote.

On God.

I seen a UFO, it was shaped like a shoe,

Might’ve been a drone, but I’m telling you it’s true,

I don’t know what it was, but it flew right through,

And if aliens got Wi-Fi—

I’m connecting too.

On God.

I never lie.

Except when I say “I never lie.”

On God.

⸻

And I swear…

Every word that leaves my mouth

Could be the truth or something wild…

But if I say it with my chest…

You better know I—

⸻

ON GOOOOOD…

I swear I’m telling you the truth,

Even when it sounds impossible…

ON GOOOOOD…

Every word and every move,

Put my whole damn soul on it…

If I said it, then I meant it,

If I meant it, then I lived it…

Raise your hands up to the ceiling—

ON GOOOOOOOOOD.

Choir:

ON GOD… ON GOD…

Lead vocal:

I put my heart behind these words—

ON GOD.

⸻

I said I got bars, yeah, the hardest alive,

I wrote sixteen verses while I waited in line,

Then I forgot every word by the time I arrived,

But I still remember one—

“I’m hungry.”

On God.

I could bench press a Buick,

If the Buick wasn’t heavy,

If the Buick had no engine,

If the Buick wasn’t ready—

Matter fact, scratch that,

I ain’t lifting that Chevy.

On God.

I got angels on my shoulder, demons in my phone,

Got twelve missed calls and I’m still sitting home,

Said I’m going outside—

Then I changed my tone.

‘Cause it’s raining.

And I don’t like rain.

On God.

I once ran three miles

Without stopping one time.

Technically it was three miles

Over the course of my life.

But still—

On God.

⸻

Lord…

You know my heart.

You know my intentions.

You know when I’m telling the truth…

And you know when I’m—

Wait.

Hold on.

I gotta go to the bathroom.

On God.

Choir whispers:

On God…

⸻
