The music video Devil's Work was released on 2 May 2019.

Father forgive me

I'm staring at this bible as I keep glancing
Dear Lord I got questions and I need answers
Tryna understand your vision all I see is damage
Just a bunch of dead bodies in the street camping
A bunch of lost souls on their feet standing,
We supposed to be your children I thought we family
You're supposed to be my father bruh, I need answers
We don't need to die young, we just need chances
Tired of living on the edge, so we keep scrambling
Tryna talk to these strippers but they keep dancing
We just wanna be number one like Steve Francis
Bow my head say a praying now a seed's planted
Everywhere I turn I'm seeing MCs vanish
Lot of good niggas gone I don't understand it
Lot of families lost and they seem stranded,
I ain't trying to disrespect you, I just need answers
I know you're watching us from heaven thinking "Who to save?"
Cherry picking who should go next and who should say
I'd be on my way to heaven if I knew the way
And bring back every good nigga you choose to take
They say you never wrong but you done made a few mistakes
'Cause you taking the wrong niggas maybe you should trade
Trade us back all the real ones and remove the fakes
I think you should trade


Give us 2Pac back and take that nigga Suge
Let the legend resurrect and he gon' live for good
I been screaming thug life in every different hood
If only you could bring him back yeah lord I wish you would
Give us Biggie, give us Pun, give us Triple X
Take that nigga Trump with you, that's a bigger threat
There's too much power for a coward with no intellect
That's a bigot with a collar that's a disconnect
Niggas dying, momma crying, grandma need a tissue
Nigga shooting up a church now I need a pistol
All them niggas still living you don't see the issue?
But how you chase a leader then you take a liter with you?
I ain't tryna disrespect just need to meet up with you
I ain't tryna over step, just want to reason with you
Give us back our loved ones and take the evil with you
Send them suckers straight to hell they don't need a *
I need you to give back Martin Luther, take Martin Shkreli
Give us back Malcolm, take R. Kelly
R.I.P. Lil Snupe give that boy his life back
Take Eric Holder give us Eric Wright back
I'm sending you this message, Lord, I hope you hit me right back
They say I'm on the wrong train, I know I'm on the right track
Cause Trayvon gone and all he did was tryna fight back
Zimmerman walk around free we don't like that
Why you take our mothers from us?
Our fathers and our sisters and our cousins from us
Got these children getting murdered while they double dutching
Wonder why the fuck you take Nipsey Hussle from us
Damn you took a true king, a true brother from us
This isn't fucking marathon but they running from us
Now everybody got guns, nigga's up to something
And every gangsta wanna prove that they tough or something
You know it's not fair, tell the truth, I've been in my feelings too
But if you took Emmett Till, at least take Dylann Roof
At least take James Holmes, I ain't even mad at that
Just bring back Whitney, and give us Michael Jackson back
Fans want me
It's ain't no justice for Sandra Bland, we up like the ceiling fan
Lord if you listening I'm just looking for a hand to hand
Take out the fuck niggas and give us back our fam again
Drowning in my tears tryna pray for something
Wonder why you give us life for you to take it from us
Wonder why you give us family and erase them from us
Maybe hopefully you can have a conversation with us
Maybe I'm just probably tripping 'cause I need a hug
The hood can't find jobs, now we need a blunt
Anybody and their momma tryna be a thug
I don't go to church 'cause I'm afraid of being judged
I've been staring at the ceiling as I lie in bed
Watching niggas follow trends like Simon says
I pray you give us back the real ones and try again
Or maybe take them niggas that deserve to die instead
Tomi Lahren run her mouth and she get defensive
Laura Ingraham laughing at death and disrespecting
I really feel like you should teach them stupid hoes a lesson
Either that or give us back somebody who deserve the blessings
I left out a bunch of names that I forgot to mention
Cost too much to pay attention then it got expensive
Father forgive me for I know not what I do, and now I'm reaching
Out to you, hoping you hear me and return the message
I know that you got our back and that you're not against us
Or maybe you just love us so you doing shit to test us
I just kinda thought that you would do more to protect us
They say that the good die young and I ain't on the guest list
I've been drinking lord forgive me it's my blood racing
I don't know what I'm thinking I'm just frustrated
I don't mean to question you, I'm just confused
I don't know what else to do, I've been patient and the zutts waiting
Took my mans from me, that forever hurt
But putting the blame on you, that never worked
I know this ain't your fault, it's the devil's work
Devil's work
