Talib Kweli - Give 'Em Hell lyrics

[Intro]

Okay

This what it is now a days right

Little noises and whatnot

I got one though

Ready or not

[Chorus]

It's all going to (Hell)

It's all going to (Hell)

Yup, we living in (Hell)

Yup, they giving us (Hell)

It's all going to (Hell)

It's all going to (Hell)

Yup, we living in (Hell)

Word

[Verse 1]

Every Sunday dressing up catching gossip at its worst

Couldn't see the difference in the Baptist and the Catholic Church

Caught up in the rapture of the first chapter and second verse

If we all God's children then what's the word of the reverend worth

Taught early that faith is blind like justice when you facing time

If we all made in God's image then that means his face is mine

Wait or it's that blasphemy it's logical it has to be

If I don't look like my father then the way I live is bastardly

Naturally that's confusion to a young'n trying to follow Christ

Taught that if you don't know Jesus then you lead a hollow life

Never question the fact that Jesus was Jewish not a Christian

Or that Christianity was law according to politicians

Who was King James?

And why did he think it was so vital to remove chapters and make his own

version of the Bible

They say Hell is underground and Heaven is in the sky

And they say that's where you go when you die but how they know

[Chorus]

It's all going to (Hell)

It's all going to (Hell)

Yup, we living in (Hell)

Yup, they giving us (Hell)

It's all going to (Hell)

It's all going to (Hell)

Yup, we living in (Hell)

[Verse 2]

I've been to many churches I've quoted many verses

I've dealt with my base self I controlled my many urges

I used to study my lessons

It was a blessing not a curse

I learned that Heaven and Hell exist right here on Earth, word

Studied with Rastafarians and learned from the dreads that Hell is called

Babylon

And that's where them crazy boarheads dwell

They got us thinking that Muslims like to make bombs

But real Muslims believe in paradise and the resist the Shaitan

So it all sound the same to me

That's why when they say one is right and the other is wrong it just sound

like game to me

It's like God skipped past the church and came to me

No that ain't vein to me

It's just a particular way that I came to see

The difference between those who claim to be

Religious and those that say they spiritual

And recognizing that life is full of miracles

You could see my glow in a rhyme

The poem divine 'cause it coincide with a grow in the time that those who

looking for God knowin' to go inside

[Chorus]

It's all going to (Hell)

It's all going to (Hell)

Yup, we living in (Hell)

Yup, they giving us (Hell)

Yup, we living in (Hell)

Yup, they giving us (Hell)

Yup, we living in (Hell)

Yup

[Verse 3]

Yo, living in mass confusion

Looking for absolution

The gas seducing and psychopath produce the last solution

Based on his interpretation of what the words were saying

Trying to get to God but ended up doing the work of Satin

Religion create the vision

Make the Muslim hate the Christian

Make the Christian hate the Jew

Make the rules of faith

That you condition to and to you gotta follow

And God forbid you go to Hell

But if you ever walked through any ghetto then you know it well

We in the third eye of the storm

[Chorus]

It's all going to (Hell)

It's all going to (Hell)

Yup, we living in (Hell)

Yup, they giving us (Hell)

It's all going to (Hell)

It's all going to (Hell)

Yup, we living in (Hell)

Yup, they giving us (Hell)

[Outro]

The Lord is my shepherd I shall not want

Just because the lord is my shepherd don't mean I gotta be no sheep

You feel me?

More blood is spilled over religion than anything in world history

We saying the same thing
