Lupita Nyong’o
[Verse]
Blood on the ground, see the love from the crown
As it calls to me
Drugs don't amount, when comes on a cloud
I’ll be called away
Run from the crowd, from the drums, from the sound
I'm the Potter's clay
Trusting people took my heart away
I been out here tryna consecrate
Sun never out, I been stuck in a drought
But I’m not a slave
Come from the south where they gun for the clout
And it's bombs away
Numb to the shout from above, no account
To my Father's way
Terrified the gon' walk away
We don't even try to congregate
Cry for the lost, got my eyes on the cross
Make a demon flee
Lies I was taught
Make the price I was bought for decreased to me
Climbed to the top for a sign then I saw
How He pleads for me
Knew my name before I could even speak
They'll never know how much He mean to me
Fame, I don't want
I been dead from the jump
I'm a skeleton
Change gotta come, what He said shall be done
I’m a reverend
Grace when He bled on a hill for the sin that He met us in
Grace cause He bled now I’m healed from my sin
He's the medicine
Medicine regiment
Evident, better than
Settling, stretching it
To paler men and ones with melanin
The felon and the judge
The weathered and the young
The malevolent thug
Confess with your tongue, benevolent Son
Severed and hung
Shedding His blood
Nothing eloquent, that’s Heaven-sent love
Thomas Edison, I'm spreading the sun
Roger Federer, finessing the lunge
I'm kind of Peter, how I walk in fellowship with Son
But if you test me you'll get slung
I’m Lupita how I come from under to above
To paint a nation in the blood
Gotta teach em bout the one, ay
Gotta teach em bout the one, ay
Since Sodom, Gomorrah
I sought Him in horror
I got Solomon's aura
They follow the scorner
I follow the Lord of, the cross that He bore up
The awesome restorer
Who I'm modeling more of
On yo block with The Torah
Spread the gospel from Georgia
To the farthest of corners
Til' All Have Heard
And we hopping yo border
Get a knock yo door at
3 o'clock in the morning
Sent a prophet to warn 'em
Better pocket your quarters
Cause we coming for ‘change'
I'm Usain how I run in my lane
When I pray I might summon the rain
