Was born in West Savannah, Georgia then I was born again

-In the circle of angels, just to help me shine my halo
-Attended Sunday school but it felt like it was every day though
-I didn't have a suit or no fancy shoes, we went in our play clothes
-Received the word and it moulded me like Play Doh
-We don't play though, we don't play though
-They say we get lower than an alligator's navel
-And when I say gator I mean that gator that match that sable, fur coat
-I wish that PETA would throw some blood off on my fur, folk
-Boy, ass whoopin'
-They out 'chea eating flesh but wanna worry how I'm looking
-I stay simply fresh to death, Sir Luscious Left Foot, best foot forward
-You reap what you sow, and now it's showing
-The lines we've crossed, the lines we crossed
