God, Here I Am

Spread your shine ‘cause
I took the call

new on the block, up
the next step
greedy with knowledge
sharing with those who want
to know.

I’m going to get high
on Jesus,
bringing folks to church my candy.
Hook up with me? No, devil.

Am I better than others? No way,
I’m just a different cube.
I’m gonna take you out devil.
