“Daily Bread” Lyrics

(from https://genius.com/Emanueldaprophet-and-lil-yachty-daily-bread-lyrics)

[Intro: EmanuelDaProphet]
Yeah
Thank you, Lord
I ain’t been on this type of time in a minute, man, you feel me?
Hmm, mmm

[Verse 1: EmanuelDaProphet]
They say I’m holy, but I’m drippin’, they like, “Who is he?” (Yeah)
Call the Father, got my daily bread, but this ain’t Uber Eats
He came through, we gathered in His name ’cause there was two or three (Yeah)
If you put the ball in my court I might shoot a three (Swoosh)
My spirit man fight my flesh man ’cause it be two of me (Wow)
Like how these women tryna catch me slippin’? They pursuing me (Man)
I’m suited up, I be in Ephesians, you can’t ruin me (Facts)
Steppin’ on a demon like I’m dancing at the jubilee
You feel that holy heat? Yeah, hot lava
Trials and tribulations come my way, it’s not my problem
And if you tryna play the cops, then I got robbers (Yeah)
Stole souls from the devil’s block, hit your block party (Give me that)
Came through busting doors down, had to bombard ’em
They thought I took a year off, I had to come harder (Yeah)
On the winning team, win a trophy like the Lombardi
Lord hit my pockets with a blessing, now they dumb larger

[Verse 2: Lil Yachty]


(Go) Jackpot, I just hit out back, me and Rich
Couple things that I did, plead the fifth
I won’t dare, double dare, Lennox Square, spent a dub
For my—
Grip it by the—
Yeah, couple dogs behind the walls, we need to see ’em freer
He need to repent, did more lines than Derek Jeter
Yeah, parkin’ it on the curb, I ain’t even pay the meter (Brrt)
Her BD just like Cousin Skeeter, askin’ for a feature
Coupe, yeah, like a train track
Heard you called God, did He ring back?
Back against the wall, stood tall, stayed intact
Heard he went cold, guess they need a raincheck (Yoom)
Where they hang at? Man, they all dubs
Bet they all grub, the TLC, they all scrubs
Dissin’ online, but in person, all love
Ain’t goin’ back and forth, I leave it to the one above

waitaminute. lil yachty? the boys made a remix about this as we prayed for him over 8 years ago!! https://youtu.be/zUigBH4N2J0?si=kHiD-wWI8tWTXc-i

we are #unashamedly excited about this genre of music whether they choose to navigate the CHH (christian hiphop) space or secular space (https://youtu.be/Aso3wEC31VQ?si=PZE9mEyH53EEu2ec), because people from this culture have contributed more to our growth and development than any other group. and at the end of the day, that’s what all this tribalism and identity politics is all about. missionaries from this group became more family than our families, and after they sent us up here, our parenting reflected our values. that lecrae x fred hammond collab deserves a shout-out too. it hit me hard after a hard week at school (sorry yall, your classmates can be a lot). https://youtu.be/KxXXqFhDkwY?si=u5mdXgMEmO4sL6AK was the homie. Shout out to my wife for finding and sending it to me after a long day after a long week after the longest stretch of the school year. Time to rest now. Shabbat shalom family.
