StaleNinja84	I'd quote the whole second verse, but it's too much. Just read it or listen to it. It's all to true and I give him big props for not trying to shove "Believe or you're damned" bullshit. added: 02/16/2004, 12:04 AM

Best song on the cd. Kanye West is possibly either better or at the same level as Jay-Z this whole cd is good.

i'm agnostic, but dude, this is the strongest song on the cd, and i've gotta give kanye props for promoting his spirituality despite the nay-sayers. this song is just incredibly intelligent, and kanye's insight was just on-point.

But if I talk about God my record won't get played Huh? How true is that. I don't really believe in God, but Kanye hits that on the nose. A powerful song from a powerful man.

utter imbecile

Yes I can see how someone unoriginally ranting about jesus is "intelligent". No wait a minute. I love how Kanye West creates fake controversy in his lyrics by acting like his predominantly Christian society is persecuting him for his Christian beliefs. Yeah boo hoo Kanye, life must be really tough believing in Jesus in America. "But if I talk about God my record won't get played Huh?" What are you stupid? If I hear one more song whining about how "godless" the country that puts this sort of shit on the radio is I'm going to puke.

People who just want to talk shit about Kanye's song can shove it. Really. Nobody like me wants to hear it. This song makes me want to get closer to God. Perfect timing now too, since we're at war and all for ridiculous matters. GROW UP PEOPLE! This is a great song! Absolutely love it!

You do all realize that there are such things as christian artists whose entire albums focus on their faith. And they aren't all praise and worship stuff. If you like rap, check out Grits, T-Bone, and KJ-52. Awesome stuff. Give 'em a shot, eh?

utter, whats it matter if Christians are the majority in the country? and who cares about what you think his song says, its the message that counts right? and he's got the message out, so he could careless what people like you think

I like very little from this genre of music, let alone a mainstream rap artist. This a powerful song. Even if you don't believe with what he is saying, the way he shows his beliefs and faith, is brilliant. Liberal slime may disagree but true christians, not just people whose faith consists of going to church on sunday, are in the minority.

I don't normally listen to 'hip-hop' or anything 'pro-christian' but this song is whoa. I gave me the chills the first time i heard it, that's how good it is.

bible humpers are in a minority because close-minded people never survive. everyone is entitled to their opinion, whether you agree with it or not.
decent song, though. i still don't understand why the media was all over Kanye though.

So here go my single dog radio needs this.They say you can rap about anything except for Jesus
That means guns, sex, lies, video tapes
But if I talk about God my record won't get played Huh?

Well I have never heard the song on the radio, but thats true. I never thought i would see the day that i would like a rap "song"

P.O.D. usually raps about Jesus besides God (or "Jah" as they call him). Anyway, this is an alright song from him.

What an arrogant prick, does Kanye know that not everyone drives a lexus? This song is self centered and lacks depth, like most rap. He should probably take some english classes before he starts writing more songs, or just stop and save the rest of the world the anguish of being subjected to this horrible garbage.

Would you rather have Lexus or justice? A dream or some substance?
