Wyclef Jean – Thank God For The Culture lyrics

Thank God for the culture
Thank God for the culture
Thank God for the culture
Thank God for the culture

Even though I walk
Through the valley of the shadow of death
I shall fear no evil
He say, what's a man to do
When I'm in the neighborhood
Where colors matter

Thank God for the culture, amen, yo
Thank God for the culture, amen, yea
If it wasn't for the culture
They probably have me doing thirty-two summers
Thank God

In 1996 they had their reasonable doubts
And then we settled the score as soon as we came out
All eyes on we, I was slim and I was killin' it
It was written that the kid would be infinite
And the beats and the rhymes gave me life
Many, many, many nights they tried to get me for my ice
Ante up, shottas on the roof
If I hit 'um up you will catch a bullet in your Goose
Words to Mr. Wallets got the naughtiest nature
No intentionS on the Pun but I don't want to be a playa
On the next episode tryna give you that prescription
Put your L's up if you could see the big picture
Let's have a toast with this Jesus wine
For those that neva see the sunshine

Thank God for the culture, yea, facts
Yea, thank God for the culture, amen, right
Yea, if it wasn't for the culture
They probably have me doing thirty-two summers

Hands up like you're saying hi to Christ
Hello, hi, hello, hi, hello, hi, hello
Thank God for the culture, amen, yo
Thank God for the culture, amen, yea
If it wasn't for the culture
They probably have me doing thirty-two summers
Thank God

Thank God for the culture
The Jiggaman set the blueprint out for us
Pioneers who paved the way and changed the game
You never seen a one-hit wonder in the hall of fame
Bad boys there's no limit to this cash money
More money, more problems, keep that fast money
You may try but die, but you know that Jesus walks, make sure you testify
'Cause you God's gift, anybody tell you different then they're ludicrous
Bring 'em T-Pain
Have you ever seen a giant with a little name
Lil' Boosie, Lil' Jon, Lil' Kim, and even Lil' Wayne
Let's take a toast, bring out the Jesus wine
For my people that won't see the sunshine

Thank God for the culture, yea, facts
Yea, thank God for the culture, amen, right
Yea, if it wasn't for the culture
They probably have me doing thirty-two summers

Hands up like you're saying hi to Christ
Hello, hi, hello, hi, hello, hi, hello
Thank God for the culture, amen, yo (Thank God for the culture)
Thank God for the culture (let's hear for the, let's do it for the, let's hear it for the)
Everybody put your hands up
I'm the only one Aretha ever loved
I'm the son of a preacher man, yah
Thank God for the culture, amen
