Jesus Walks Lyrics
Artist(Band):Kanye West
I need to recruit all the soldiers
All of God's soldiers
We at war
We at war with society, racism, terrorism, but most of all we at war with ourselves
(Jesus Walks)
God show me the way because the Devil trying to break me down
(Jesus Walks with me) with me with me with me [fades]
You know what the Midwest is?
Young & Restless
Where restless NIGGAZ! might snatch your necklace
And next these NIGGAZ! might jack your Lexus
Somebody tell these NIGGAZ! who Kanye West is
I walk through the valley of the shadow of death is
Top floor the view alone will leave you breathless Uhhhh!
Try to catch it Uhhhh! It's kinda hard
Getting choked by the detectives yeah yeah now check the method
They be asking us questions, harass and arrest us
Saying "we eat pieces of shit like you for breakfast"
Huh? Y'all eat pieces of shit? What's the basis?
We ain't going nowhere but got suits and cases
A trunk full of coke rental car from Avis
My momma used to say only Jesus can save us
Well momma I know I act a fool
But I'll be gone til November I got packs to move cuz I hope
(Jesus Walks)
God show me the way because the Devil trying to break me down
(Jesus Walks with me)
The only thing that I pray is that me feet don't fail me now
(Jesus Walks)
And I don't think there is nothing I can do now to right my wrongs
(Jesus Walks with me)
I want to talk to God but I'm afraid because we ain't spoke in so long
(Jesus Walks)
God show me the way because the Devil trying to break me down
(Jesus Walks with me)
The only thing that I pray is that me feet don't fail me now
(Jesus Walks)
And I don't think there is nothing I can do now to right my wrongs
(Jesus Walks with me)
I want to talk to God but I'm afraid because we ain't spoke in so long,(Jesus walks)so long, (Jesus walks),so lo-ong. (Jesus walks with me with me with me. fades)
To the hustlas, killers, murderers, drug dealers even the strippers
(Jesus walks with them)
To the victims of Welfare for we living in hell here hell yeah
(Jesus walks with tthheemm)
Now hear ye hear ye want to see Thee more clearly
I know He hear me when my feet get weary
Cuz we're the almost nearly extinct
We rappers is role models we rap we don't think
I ain't here to argue about his facial features
Or here to convert atheists into believers
I'm just trying to say the way school need teachers
The way Kathie Lee needed Regis that's the way I need Jesus
So here go my single dog radio needs this
They say you can rap about anything except for Jesus
That means guns, sex, lies, video tapes
But if I talk about God my record won't get played Huh?
Well let this take away from my spins
Which will probably take away from my ends
Then I hope it take away from my sins
And bring the day that I'm dreaming about
Next time I'm in the club everybody screaming out
(Jesus Walks)
God show me the way because the devil trying to break me down
(Jesus Walks with me)
The only thing that I pray is that me feet don't fail me now

Review about Jesus Walks
No one is perfect. | Reviewer: Anonymous | 5/26/2008This song say everything about life. Everybody does all these things in this song whether it be swearing or having sex. No one is perfect thats why we do it. Jesus was the only perfect man. He loves us all remember that.
I am glad I didnt hear this in 2004 | Reviewer: Anonymous | 4/27/2008
In 2004 I might have been just as judgmental as some of the reviewer i read on the last pages. This is an amazing song that reaches out to an enormous amount of people. Kanye West is is identifying with people where they are, and sometimes for people to know he is real and to realize he has frustrations just like them, he has to swear even in a song talking about Jesus. Its reality. You don't find may people including Pastors who don't swear these days. I know I live in a city with the most churches per capita in the whole USA. I have heard pastors and preachers swear, and sometimes almost from the pulpit. This song makes me a Kanye West listener, and you know it is funny because I know people who hate rap and only listen to hard core rock but who listen to him and like his music. He might have the biggest fan base of any rap star out there.
To the world out there | Reviewer: Anonymous | 4/11/2008
let me tell u something. Jesus isn't a religion, once his Spirit of Power lives in you, you cant hide it inside, you gotta tell the whole world that he lives and he is the real Life! And no, this isn't a metaphor people, HE IS LITERARLY REAL.So if you think the so caled ' good life' seems to be good, lemme tell u something your leading yourself to the gates of hell, because watever the world offers, it offers death and destruction.Period. So im asking this, whats the point of gaining the whole world and losing your soul at the end?
Great Song! | Reviewer: Patrick | 3/24/2008
This is a beatiful song, fusing the elements of rap and Christianity together in perfect unison. Kanye is expressing himself and his beliefs in this song and is not afraid to do so. He talks about how most rap is about sex, lies guns and such and how "people" don't allow rappers to talk about Jesus. Also about the cursng, I would look for a clean version but I would listen to the expicit one nonetheless (not in front of my parents though!). I think by swearing, that Kanye is expressing his feelings to the fullest extent. He's talking about what it's really like in this world. It's not all perfect language. To all those people that criticize Kaney for cursing are only too afraid to admit that they also do it themselves. I curse and swear here and there, and thats because I'm human and am not perfect and so is everyone else. Do you people think that detectives when interrogating a prime suspect or what-not will not swear like "i eat poop like you for breakfast"? Get real and wake-up! Other than that, 5/5 stars!
I LOVE JESUS | Reviewer: Anonymous | 3/6/2008
I say that Jesus is a pretty cool guy, I love him so much. When I'm scared or just thinking, I just talk to him because I just have a good feeling inside and it makes me feel protected. I wish that everyone followed him, I'm scared to see what is going to happen because there is so many bad things in the world today. I just hope that he will give everything that last chance!

What the??? | Reviewer: Anonymous | 1/12/2008
I LOVE GOD | Reviewer: cool | 11/20/2007
Kanye says it all. We all need jesus. He walks for the atheists too. as hard as it is to believe he does. He died for them just as he has for us. Maybe they will turn around, but in the end it will all be sorted out.
As hard as it is to believe, mate, God bless ya, but its hard to believe that he didn't come for athiests, when the reason he came was to show athiests the way, and that it is possible to live life without sin, and then he took it a step further knowing that we as humans would never live without sin, died on the cross for all our sins, past, present and future sins. So in this sense we all need to be living in victory because the battle has already been won.

KANYE WEST 4EVER
they're not all to blame | Reviewer: kanyewest* | 12/7/2007
i am not really into rap, but i do like some hip hop and most of kanye wests' songs. he raps about true, and strong lyrics that no one else dares to talk about. he ignores taboo. as well, the lyrics are in pretty damn good beats! i was just reading over these comments and i have to say that some people are really getting mixed up. i am christian but not CHRISTIAN CRAZY. i go to church but i don't take part in dinners and stuff, anyways i believe that Jesus does not love Strippers, drug dealers, etc he loves the person behind the drug dealers! the fourteen year old kid who had to join a gang so they would not target him, the 18 year old girl who had to prostitute to feed her family, or just the guy who was there at the wrong time. jesus loves everyone. period. and should we be punished because we were born into cetain situations? my mom is a lawyer and she had a client who was forced to be a hooker so that she could feed her siblings. she was 14. should Jesus not love her because she had sex when people have sex all the time? at least she's doing it for a good cause! (btw, i am not any of these examples but i live in a city with lots of youth crime..)
Strong Lyrics | Reviewer: Dominique | 11/29/2007
I'm not a huge fan of rap. (Not the mainstream kind anyway.) But these lyrics are true just like the underground stuff...
I like this song because the lyrics are so strong
