Killah Priest - The Chase lyrics

rate me

I killed the devil now they lookin' for me

His demons were schemin', I ran out the project with the glock 40

Cocked, bumped into a cop, grabbed this shorty

Hopped in the ride, peel off and drive

Got on my thigh, swervin' towards the Church

On some Da Vinci Code, windows low

Wind blow, it's windy yo

I stick my head out speedin', deep breathin'

My eyes closed, I done it

Fires of hell is jumpin'

Babylon the greatest toll, The Harlot Woman

Turn back into the ancient stone face and begins crumblin'

Out of the unfenced corners of creation

The body of all God's children escapin'

I pull up outside of the Church

Saw my mother first, kissed her on the cheek

Quick, where's the Reverend, ("Doin' the Lord's work")

I ran inside, he's on his knees, get up we G's

I killed the devil, we free, rejoice

(You what? You did what? What he said?)

(The devil is dead, what's he said?)

(The devil is dead, what he said?)

(The devil is dead)

He lyin', he denyin', nah I'm tryin', what he said?

(The devil is dead) What? The devil is dead?

(The devil is dead) The devil is dead?

You mean dead, dead?

(The devil is dead) What?

What he said? (The devil is dead)

So we partied up, somebody came up in the Church and lit a blunt

Almost made me drop my Hennessy in my cup

It was crazy, the Church turned to a party

A smoke house, 70's music, electric slide broke out

Grandma and the Preacher did the Hustle

Even the choir boy bust a move

I made it, do what it do

I sat back, I thought about all the times, all the harsh crimes

Times we sold crack, the time we had to get strapped

All my dudes up in the mac's, first blowin' their gats

To all my niggas that neva comin' back

That's deceased in the streets

A tear made his way to my lids

So many brothers and sisters doin' bids and neva lived

So all the Gods and Muslims did their thing, even the Hebrews

And everybody came and danced and let go of their egos

Cause we all God's people, and that was my job

It was done, it wasn't fun, but I killed the devil last night

Yeah he tried to put up a fight, but I caught 'em

I was lookin' for that mothafucka for a long time, a long ass time

So my job is neva done, next time I see you brother

I'm gon' hand you God's gun, and don't get uptight

Just know I killed the devil last mothafuckin' night

Yeah, yessir

The devil that was inside of me

The devil was inside all of us
