Tell me if you know someone that needs (Jesus, Lord)
00:34
Now we've been through a lot of things
00:43
Tell me if you know someone that needs (Jesus, Lord)
00:46
He lives in a lot of things
00:54
Tell me if you know someone that needs (Jesus, Lord)
00:57
Been through a lot of things
01:06
Tell me if you know someone that needs (Jesus, Lord)
01:09
Sittin' by myself, I'm just thinkin'
01:19
About all I've been through, I wish I was dreaming (Jesus)
01:20
Man, it's hard to be an angel when you surrounded by demons (Lord)
01:23
I watched so many people leave (Jesus, Lord)
01:26
I see 'em change by the season, that's mama's seasonin'
01:27
God got you, the devil's watchin', he just peekin' in
01:30
I know I made a promise that I'd never let the reaper in (Jesus)
01:33
But lately, I've been losing all my deepest friends (Lord)
01:36
And lately, I've been swimmin' on the deepest end
01:39
It's just drugs, it ain't no hugs, it ain't no love there
01:42
You been down so much you don't even know what's upstairs (Jesus)
01:45
Suicidal thoughts got you wonderin' what's up there (Lord)
01:48
And while they introduce a party, they say it's up there
01:51
Too many pills, so much potions, so much pain, too many emotions
01:53
And everything that you do good, it just go unnoticed (Jesus)
01:57
Then they tell you that you good, and just stay focused (Lord)
02:00
Mama, you was the life of the party
02:03
I swear you brought life to the party
02:06
When you lost your life, it took the life out the party (Jesus)
02:08
That woman rode with me like a Harley (Lord)
02:12
Visions of my cousins in a cell really scarred me
02:14
Movin' to the hood was like signin' up for the army
02:17
'Cause they been killin' n-, since n- was watchin' Barney (Jesus)
02:20
You want dreams to come true? But I had nightmares (Lord)
02:23
'Cause if that come to life, then I might not be right here
02:25
Been in the dark so long, don't know if the light here
02:28
But I'm just reaching for the stars like Buzz Lightyear (Jesus)
02:31
And now I'm lightyears ahead of those nightmares (Lord)
02:34
I deaded those night tears when the night clears
02:37
And if I talk to Christ, could I bring my mother back to life?
02:40
And if I die tonight, will I see her in the afterlife? (Jesus)
02:43
But back to reality, where everything's a tragedy (Lord)
02:46
And better have a strategy or you could be a statistic
02:49
Little boy dies, he's just one of the mystic
02:52
And mama steady crying, 'cause she really the victim (Jesus)
02:55
Now she's getting high and she's getting addicted (Lord)
02:58
And her older boy just stuck with the picture, painted vivid
03:00
That's a family portrait, and her daughter just absorbed it
03:04
16, pregnant, baby daddy say she should abort it (Jesus)
03:06
But we can't afford it, so she decides to move forward (Lord)
03:09
Baby shower time, father didn't show up
03:12
Now she just feeling nauseous like she finna throw up
03:15
The water flows down her legs, yeah, it's finna go up (Jesus)
03:18
A year done went by, her daughter just turned one (Lord)
03:21
And she's still dependent on her mom
03:24
Big brother in the streets, he went and bought him a gun
03:27
He want revenge 'cause the pain, feelin' numb (Jesus)
03:30
And her mom still doing drugs 'cause that's the only time she feel loved (Lord)
03:33
But is it real love? Do the scars really heal up?
03:36
From all the pain that done built up, but they don't feel us (Jesus)
03:39
A week done flew by, big bro ridin' then he see the guys (Lord)
03:45
Left his little brother on the side, bleeding from the side
03:47
He seein' red it's like he's bleeding through his eyes
03:51
To see him dead, the only thing that'll help the grieving up inside (Jesus)
03:53
He even let him get they last meal
03:57
He done with the streets after this, this his last kill (Lord)
03:59
He gotta show him that it's that real
04:02
He ran up on him with the pipe like, "N-, stand still" (Jesus)
04:05
"You took my brother life, you made my mother cry" (Lord)
04:08
"Tell me one reason I shouldn't send you up to Christ"
04:11
He said, "Go 'head, take my life, I've seen everything but Christ"
04:14
Then big bro just blacked out and all you seen was just the light (Jesus, Lord)
04:17
Tell me if you know someone that needs (Jesus, Lord)
04:28
Uh-huh, in the name of the true and living God
04:36
The beneficent, the merciful (hallelujah)
04:39
Thank you for bringing me up the rough side of the mountain like Ertuğrul (Jesus)
04:40
Every knee bowed and every tongue confessed and paid homage (Lord)
04:43
To the monk who visited Rothschilds like Thelonious did Pannonica
04:46
It's Jay Elec-entendre-nica comin' through your monitor (sheesh)
04:49
Back from the great beyond, the son of man and the son of Donda (Jesus)
04:52
I never rolled the GXSR or the R6 or the Honda (Lord)
04:55
But I flew my Ducati through North America like Wakanda
04:58
Earthquakes will strike this nation for what Bush did to Rwanda (facts)
05:01
What the Clintons did to Haiti and Downing Street did to Ghana
05:04
In Tenochtitlan they call me Terremoto, El Negro Loco
05:06
I shake the tectonic plates of the game if I lay one vocal
05:10
The God is interstellar while you fellas remain local
05:12
My bars is like the pyramid temples of Pacal Votan (Jesus)
05:16
As sure as the DOJ confirmed Ezekiel's Wheel (Lord)
05:18
I could change the world like Yakub with two pieces of steel
05:21
My sword or my microphone, I swore to the Christ's throne
05:24
But when you great, they wanna say you took an L, José Castillo (Jesus)
05:27
I'm in the fight here, fight here, for what seemed like lightyears (Lord)
05:30
My rugged cross and thorny crowns squeeze out Christ tears
05:33
30 pieces of silver clout, my Pierre price tier
05:36
It's a war outside, it's a war outside (Jesus)
05:39
It's like the last days of Sodom and Gomorrah outside (Lord)
05:42
Tell me if you know someone that needs (Jesus, Lord)
05:50
Donnie, Ye, what up, n-?
05:57
Get that money you n- forget 'em
06:00
I ain't need 'em, but my mom's is with 'em (Jesus)
06:03
38, look how the streets did 'em (Lord)
06:06
All these trophies, but where do I sit 'em? (Woo)
06:09
I was born to rock a crown, h- yeah, I knocked it down
06:11
Holy water, n-, but out here, we turn to brown (Jesus)
06:14
Donnie, if you ain't loyal, you from a different soil (Lord)
06:17
Your flame too low for that water to boil (you ain't hot)
06:21
If I wasn't rappin', the calls would stop (haha)
06:24
You ain't really happy for me, you mad that I pop (Jesus)
06:26
F- a car, five houses like, "Look what I copped" (Lord)
06:29
Devil like, "Jesus Christ, he gotta be stopped"
06:32
I don't say, "What's up?", you basically blocked (facts)
06:35
You see it on my head, just know that it's copped (Jesus)
06:38
Always look 'em in the face when I deal with my opp (Lord)
06:41
I'm from the bottom but Lord knows it's better up top, n-
06:44
Yeah, viral pictures (viral), Bible scriptures
06:46
One thing about the devil, he's liable to get you (Jesus)
06:49
Long as my good days outweigh my bad days (Lord)
06:52
I don't count the money, I just know how much the bag weighs (I know)
06:55
Broke down soon as I seen him bring the coffin in
06:58
Lord knows, I just really wanna see you walk again (Jesus) (uh)
07:01
Million dollars cashiers check to the offerin' (Lord)
07:04
They can talk about me all they want, I'ma talk to Him (uh-huh)
07:07
Some n- get shot in they mouth, never talk again (yuh)
07:10
After that, they go and get veneers or the porcelain (Jesus)
07:13
We all need Him, is you ready to meet Him? (Lord) (you ready?)
07:16
Doin' dumb sh- but keep tryin' for your freedom
07:18
Uh, if you don't die, then you try again (yeah)
07:21
You get your angel wings then you fly again (Jesus, fly)
07:25
Ain't no "I" in 'team', it's a "I" in win (Lord, win)
07:28
They got they eye on me, I got my eye on Him ('sup)
07:30
Some fam died, some friends died
07:34
I am feeling rage on the inside, where is mine? (Jesus)
07:36
Love and hate is a thin line, get two for the tenth time (Lord)
07:39
Dyin' on the 11th, my n- (my n-)
07:42
I'm just down here stuntin' on the 7th, my n- (stuntin')
07:45
By the way, is a ghetto up in Heaven, my n-? (Jesus)
07:47
If it is, keep the chariot revvin' my n-, yeah (keep it revvin', Lord)
07:51
That's what my momma be sayin'
07:55
And before you roll to war, know it's honor in prayin' (know it's honor)
07:56
There'll be vomit on the toilet after last night (bet that)
07:59
These n- born and they move (Jesus)
08:02
Yeah, they gotta be playin', not the lottery (Lord)
08:04
I am in the flower, f- the pottery (Haha)
08:06
Jargon is angelic, you don't get it, then pardon me
08:08
Got coke from Jesus, now I'm talkin' to Jesus (Jesus)
08:11
Real shallow n-, probably pray for a gray coupe (Lord)
08:14
Maybe the Lykan, or a mansion out in the Seychelles
08:17
Tell me if you know someone that needs (Jesus, Lord)
08:22
And we done been through a lot of things
08:31
Tell me if you know someone that needs (Jesus, Lord)
08:34
He lives in a lot of things
08:42
Tell me if you know someone that needs (Jesus, Lord)
08:45
Been through a lot of things
08:54
Tell me if you know someone that needs (Jesus, Lord)
08:57
What up, Ye? This Larry Hoover Jr
09:05
First and foremost, I wanna thank you
09:08
For taking the fight for my father to the Oval Office
09:10
You might not have been the only one that could've did that
09:13
But you were the one that did do that
09:16
And with your assistance
09:19
We can continue to let the world take part in this fight
09:20
You know to me it kinda feels like, me, my mother, my brothers
09:24
And my kids have all been incarcerated through this journey
09:29
And we haven't even been to jail
09:33
We've been looked at and treated as criminals, for being a part of this family
09:35
My father's truth and the reality that he raised me in
09:40
Is that he wanted to make a change in this community
09:44
'Cause the conditions in this capitalist society
09:47
Is what made him, and it's what made the children of today
09:49
After 25 years of bein' locked down, 23 and 1
09:52
My father has not called any shots
09:56
From one of the most secure and segregated prisons in the world
09:59
And will not, once released
10:03
Call any of the shots for the Gangster Disciples
10:05
If my father's intentions were to lead us to death, destruction
10:08
Into the hell that he has had to live in for the past 26 years
10:12
Man, he would be dead to me
10:17
I didn't sign up for that
10:20
I didn't stay on this journey this long for that
10:22
All my life, man, I've been waitin' for my father to come home
10:25
They told me when I graduate eighth grade, he would be home
10:31
Then they told me when I graduate from high school, he would be home
10:38
I went away to Morris Brown, I graduated and he still ain't home
10:44
Now I'm a adult, and my daughter went away to college and graduated
10:49
Now even more than that, my son
10:56
He graduated eighth grade and we still waitin'
10:59
Matter of fact, he hasn't hugged
11:02
Kissed, or touched any of his grandchildren
11:04
And they haven't been able to touch they grandfather
11:07
Even though it is not seen that way for some of us
11:10
But for many of us, Larry Hoover is a beacon of hope for his community
11:13
Who deserves to breathe free air
11:18
Free my father (Jesus), Mr. Larry Hoover Sr. (Lord)
11:21
