Are you down with G-O-D?

The Lord is all that, I need for nothing. / He allows me to chill. /He keeps me from being heated /and allows me to breathe easy. /He guides my life so that I can /represent and give shout outs in His name. / And even though I walk through the hood of death, /I don't back down, for You have my back. / The fact that He has me /covered allows me to chill. / He provides me with back-up/In front of player-haters, / and I know that I am a baller and life will be phat. / I fall back in the Lord's crib for the rest of my life.

--Actual quote from "The Hip Hop Prayer Book".

I'm just wondering why the rap has to suck so back. I'm not really suprised that someone decided to rewrite the Book of Common Prayer all in raps, but I am surprised that they didn't hire someone super cool and super talented to help them out. First off, that wording! It's trying way to hard. God doesn't try hard to be a baller, you shouldn't either. Second off, does this follow any sort of rhythm whatsoever? And no rhymes! I'd be so down with God if he had some sick ass rhymes to get me all giddied up in the Lord's name. Sheeet man.
