[Chorus:]
Lucifer, dawn of de morning! I'm gonna, chase you out of Earth
Lucifer Lucifer, dawn of de morning...
(I'm from the murder capital, where we murder for capital)
Lucifer Lucifer, dawn of de morning! I'm gonna, chase you out of Earth
(Kanyeeze you did it again, you a genius *****!)
Lucifer Lucifer, dawn of de morning...
So you *****s change your attitude
For they askin what happened to you
[Verse One]
Lord forgive him
He got them dark forces in him
But he also got a rightous cause for sinnin
Them a murder me so i gotta murder them first
Emergency doctors performin procedures
Jesus
I ain't tryin to be facetious
But "Vengance is mine" said the Lord
You said it better than all
Leave *****s on deaths door
Breathin off res-por-rators
for killin my best boy, HATERS
On perminate hiatus as i skate
In the Maybach Benz
Flya than Sanna Lathan
Pumpin "Brown Sugar" by D'Angelo
In Los Angeles
Like an evangelist
I can introduce you to your maker
Bring you closer to nature
Ashes after they cremate you bastards
Hope you been readin your psalms and chapters
Payin your ties being good Catholics
I'm commin
[Chorus:]
Lucifer, dawn of de morning! I'm gonna, chase you out of Earth
Lucifer Lucifer, dawn of de morning...
(I'm from the murder capital, where we murder for capital)
Lucifer Lucifer, dawn of de morning! I'm gonna, chase you out of Earth
Lucifer Lucifer, dawn of de morning...
So you *****s change your attitude
For they askin what happened to you
[Verse Two]
Yes
This is Holly war
I wet cha all with the Holly water
Spray from the Heckler Koch auto
Matic all the static shall cease to exist
Like a sematical i throw a couple at you
Take six
Spread love to all of my dead thugs
I'll pour out a little Louie til i head above
Yes Sir
And when i perish
The meek shall inherit the earth
Until that time it's on a poppin Church
Like Don Bishop
The fifth upon **** either
Lift up your soul or give the Holly ghost please
I leave ya in somebodys Catedrial
And stuntin like Evil Kenevil
I'll let you see where that bright light lead you
The more you talk the more you irkin us
The more you gonna need memorial services
The Black Albums second verse is like
Devil's Pie please save some dessert for us
Man i gotta get my soul right
I gotta get these Devils out my life
These cowards gonna make a ***** ride
They won't be happy til somebody dies
Man i gotta get my soul right
'For i'm locked up for my whole life
Evertime it seems it's all right
Somebody want they soul to rise
(I'll chase you off of this Earth)
[Verse Three]
I got dreams of holdin a Nine milla
To Bobs killa
Askin him "why?" as my eyes fill up
These days i can't wake up with a dry pillow
Gone but not forgotten holmes i still feel ya
SO...Curse the day that birthed the bastard
Who caused your Church mass
Reverse the crash
Reverse the blast
And reverse the car
Reverse the day, and there you are
Bob Allah
Lord forgive him we all have sined
But Bobs a good dude please let him in
And if you feel in my heart that i long for revenge
Please blame it on the sun of the mournin
Thanks Again

I dont think this is pro lucifer song. hes saying hes trying to chase the devils out his life. Basically what hes saying is that we all have sinned and that he hopes god forgives us unperfect people...because really its the devils fault(atleast partially) we sin, because he tempts us constantly. thats how i took it. thats why he said, "please blame it on the son of the mournin"
I think I got the last verse. hes talking about a close friend who died in a car crash. same one from lost ones. thats why he said curse the day that birth the bastard who caused your church mass. hes talking about cursing the guy who caused the car crash. the he says reverse the crash, reverse the blast.....its all about this friend that he had who died in a car crash.
he goes on to ask god to let him in, despite the fact the he has sinned.

Originally posted by Truth View Postbut I dont think he hates jesus or its anything like that. as i said earlier, he wears a jesus piece. if someone really disliked jesus christ, i dont think they would do that, even for style. As I said earlier, I think he was saying how the city makes it hard for jesus to save someone because once church ends, its back to the city. and the city is filled with the devil. to me the third verse was a story about young girls in new york that come there for innocent reasons, but get currupted. if jay-z was saying sinning is good, would he say, don't bite the apple eve? i dont this so. but i could be wrong.
I wasn't implying and devil worship, Masonic, NWO, etc. Some even said that Hov is an Illuminato.
I just wanted to remind us that Jay has had controversial/religion-themed lyrics a lot.
