Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Yeah
God shining the light
He just turned on the spotlight
Yo, check it
The Devil put you on display
[Verse 2]
Yeah, I say
I used to believe
Everything I read
Seen on TV
I was way down for the revolution
Until I found out it was contingent on some corporate sponsorship
And if Jesus was alive today
He'd be incarcerated
With the rest of the brothers
While, uh
The Devil would have a great apartment
On the upper east side
Be a guest V-J
On total request live
[Verse 3]
God, fear, and money
Make the world go round and round
God, fear, and money
I say God, fear, and money
Make the world go round and round
God, fear, and money
Yes, you do, Lord
[Verse 4]
I say, Mary, don't you weep
Mary, don't you moan
Lord, have mercy
Come carry me home
And my Love
Who up in Heaven
Hallowed by Thy name
And if you truly are the shepherd
Why do they war, destroy
Slaughter all in Your name
Tell me
[Verse 5]
God, fear, and money
Make the world go round and round
God, fear, and money (Yes, You do)
God, fear, and money
Make the world go round and round
God, fear, and money
[Verse 6]
God, fear, and money
Make the world go round and round
Fear, and money
[Verse 7]
Walk the walk
If you gonna talk that talk
Politicians
God, fear, and money
[Verse 8]
The Devil's work is never done
God
This Devil's work is never done
The Devil's work is never done
God
The Devil's work is never done
[Verse 9]
The Devil's work is never done
Free yourself from chains of Indiana
This Devil's work is never done
Yeah
God, fear, and money
