AMEN Lyrics

[Teezo Touchdown:]

Father God

I come to you to say thank you

That's all, I won't ask for anything, I just wanna say thank you, Lord

Thank you

Prayin', prayin' (Thank you)

Pray again, pray again (Thank you, Father)

Prayin' (Thank you, Lord)

Prayin' 'til you find a man

That's gon' treat you

That's gon' treat you like I can (Amen, amen)

That's gon' please you

That's gon' please you like I can (Church)

[Drake & Teezo Touchdown:]

Church like a priest, Turks for the week

Purse for yourself, purse for your niece

Know you don't do Percs, baby, but (Take your time)

That's the perks of datin' me

Red Merces with the red seats

Buy red wig, part the Red Sea

With a neat freak, gettin' mess–

God, forgive me

Father, I've sinned

Sent more than your father ever sent

Spent more than your baby father did

Ayy, you my baby, so I gotta put you in the crib

Same neighborhood where Ashton Kutcher live

I'm just doin' what that punk should have did

(Thank you Lord)

She prayin' for me while I'm on the road

Prayin' for me while I hold her close

Prayin' that there's not no other girl

I'm prayin' that these girls'll never know

She prayin' asking God for a sign

I just went and paid her car note (Note—)

[Teezo Touchdown:]

Turn to your neighbor

Say "Neighbor"

Prayin', prayin' (Neighbor)

Pray again, pray again (Everybody, say it)

Prayin'

Prayin' 'til you find a man

That's gon' treat you

That's gon' treat you like I can

That's gon' please you

That's gon' please you like I can

[Outro:]

Thank you for calling Mercedes Benz in Beaumont

If you know your party's extension

You may dial it at any time, or dial "9" for company directory

For sales, please press "1"

Drake live – a hip-hop sensation!

Meaning

In "AMEN," Teezo Touchdown begins with a heartfelt prayer, expressing gratitude to the divine. The lyrics weave a narrative of faith, love, and devotion. Drake then steps in, painting vivid images of life's luxuries and personal growth, alluding to the perks that come with being in a relationship with him.

The theme of forgiveness and redemption is prevalent, with Drake acknowledging his imperfections and seeking spiritual absolution. The interplay of Teezo Touchdown's prayers and Drake's verses adds a unique dynamic, creating a balance between the spiritual and the material aspects of life.
