(One of us) Yeah, Rule

(One uf us) Yeah, nigga

If God were one of us

(One of us) What about that?

What if he was?

What if he was me?

(One of us) What the fuck would I do?



Lord, when I die pacify, crucify me

I rock a Devil cross, one's for the soul one's for the body

If I'm built then God dies, I wanna see God cry

Real tears from a burned out life in ten years

I sware I got the Devil in me, with no fear

If I hear I can't see, if I see I can't hear

It's the eerie little thing between deathness and blindness

Weakness and kindness, rejects and primaz

I'm on this when I'm hollerin', "Dear Lord, take me" (One of us)

(Baby) 'Cuz I ain't really happy here, can you blame me?

This game done changed me, made me an animal

I can't even laugh no more, my kids smile for me now

I'm the one-and-only, my momma's only child

Lord, save me before I go crazy

'Cuz if you, live through the strain

just to die from the pain, tell me

Would you believe that you could breathe again?



[Chorus]

If God were one of us (One of us)

Would he sin and love to lie? I wanna know

If God were one of us (One of us)

Would he freakin' live his life? I wanna know

If God were one of us (One of us)

Would he use his name in vain? I need to know

If God were one of us (One of us)

Would he believe that he could breathe again?



Yo, yo

Now let's look at things through my right hand

What if you was that man?

Would you run wit me? Gun wit me?

Would you understand the husstlin', the struggeling

Live amongst dope heads, raisin' your kids and runnin' from the Feds

We'd be bound to bump heads, 'cuz you livin' my life

All righteous, and you said l
