Lyrics

The Preacher, The Politician Or The Pimp
(Toronzo Cannon, Cannonball Express Music admin. by Small Scale Music, ASCAP)


Pinky ring, expensive suit
Three hundred dollar pair of shoes
Cadillac sitting at the curb
Sweet lies with pretty words
I mean what I scheme
Manipulate your hopes and dreams

Am I the preacher, the politician or the pimp?
Am I the preacher, the politician or the pimp?

Put a dollar in my hand ha!
I’ll take you to the promised land
If you put your faith in me
I’ll save your soul, I got the key
Your eyes are closed but you think you’re blind
I’m in control, I got your mind

Am I the preacher, the politician or the pimp?
Am I the preacher, the politician or the pimp?

We’re one and the same
Just three different names
Don’t hate the player
Hate the game, yeah

Quick to take, but slow to give. Ha!
Off your sweat is how I live
You want your pie in the sky
So you believe every single lie
I’ll fulfill your every need, y’all
If you only feed my greed

See
Am I the preacher, the politician or the pimp?
Am I the preacher, the politician or the pimp? Hey, hey, hey, hey, yeah
Am I the preacher, the politician or the pimp?
Am I the preacher, the politician or the pimp?
