It breaks my heart
They ain't believe in us
We the Best Music
They played themselves
While you hatin' and being jealous
You could be over here embracing that love
More love, more blessings, more life
God DID (God DID)
You either win with us or you watch us win
DJ Khaled
They wanted us down, ooh-woah
But look at us now, oh
They counted us out (Time to say a prayer, M-M-M-)
They didn't think that we would make it, oh (May we bow our heads)
They didn't believe in us, oh (Huh)
But I know God did, God did (Oh, yes, He did)
Oh, God did (Oh-oh, Khaled)
Oh, yes, God did (Oh-oh, Khaled)
Oh, God did (God is great)
But I know God did
Nosedive, they just prayin' that I crash (Huh)
Those guys, they don't wanna see you last
They'll jack up three million dollars up on your tax
A tub full of money, I still can't relax
Tires spinnin', Lord forgive me, I'm a sinner
Conquer, divide niggas
Wrong side of the petition, only divine winnin'
Better listen when I tell you how I put time in it
Please, forgive me, God did
So leave me in the dark, swimmin' with the sharks
Dope boy, big calm, still the biggest boss
Got a kilo on a plate, send 'em on a freight
Or I can go and buy a bank, I know my money's safe (Maybach Music)
They counted us out
They didn't think that we would make it, oh
They didn't believe in us, oh
But I know God did, God did (Oh, yes, He did)
Oh, God did (Oh-oh)
Oh, yes, God did (Oh-oh)
Oh, God did (Mula, uh)
But I know God did
Sky is the limit, every day I reach
They was tired of me winnin', now they dead sleep
Don't wan' see me with the ring? You better play D'
Nigga, God did His thing when He made me
With the odds stacked against me, I could crack Da Vinci
I know only God can judge us, I say that for Brittney
They smell blood like the sharks, they start actin' fishy
Well, I'ma have to act a ass and they gon' have to kiss me
Please, don't hate me just to hate me
Before they overrate me, they gon' underestimate me
Funeral and wake me, bury me and excavate me
But I'm so cultivating, everybody replicate me, nigga, face facts
Dreadlocks, face tats, I'm the apex
I made the culture, what up, twin? Never laid back
I fucked the world and when I did, I practiced safe sex
I pray more and said less, God did the rest
They counted us out
They didn't think that we would make it, oh (It breaks my heart)
They didn't believe in us, oh
But I know God did (Where we at Gu?), God did (Oh, yes, He did, where we at Gu?)
Oh, God did (Oh-oh)
Oh, yes, God did (Oh-oh)
Oh, God did
But I know God did

Those of them willin' to die for the existence that this cold world has chose for them
Kickin' snow off a frozen Timb (Woo)
Back and forth on this turnpike, really took a toll on 'em
Lot of fallen soldiers on these roads of sin
For those who make the laws, I'ma always have smoke for them
I got lawyers like shooters
Workin' pro bono for him as a favor 'cause I throw them Ms
In memory of Teelo
I pray none of your people die over jailphones again
All this pain from the outside, inspired all this growth within
So new planes gettin' broken in
Highest elevation of the self
They done fucked around and gave the right niggas wealth
These ain't songs, these are hymns 'cause I'm him
It's the Psalm 151, this New Testament
The book of Hov (The book of Hov)
Jesus turned water to wine, for Hov, it just took a stove
You never know how this shit could go
Me and Biggs probably got too big if they ain't book that load (What's up Hoffa?)
