[Intro]
Turn that up
I want y'all to listen to this one
People who worship stupid stuff

[Verse 1]
When it come to my music, I'm like the preacher
And y'all are in the classroom and I'm the teacher
God gave me the gift so I can reach you
You give Him your life, He ain't gon' never leave you
Rappers like to talk tough in they wife-beaters
Think they hot when they not, they ain't got Jesus
I don't wanna be the bearer of bad news, I will if I have to
Give the Devil a chance, guarantee he gon' smash you
Always like to bring up your past
I don't know what's dumber, the Devil or Soulja Boy rap, uh-huh
Yeah, but on a serious note
My God can save you, I'm being serious, yo
I used to live like I ain't got a reason
Talk about God, I's like I don't really need 'im
Knew He's right in front of me but didn't wanna see 'im
Now I realize I'm nothin' without Jesus

[Chorus]
I got Jesus and nothin' in this world is comin' between us
I'ma let it out, this ain't no secret
So errybody put your hands up and scream it, yeah
I, I got Jesus and nothin' in this world is comin' between us
I'ma let it out, this ain't no secret
So errybody put your hands up

[Verse 2]
You're confused like you don't know what I'm talkin' about
Genesis 1:1, ayy, pull your Bibles out
You don't get it yet? Yeah, you can't see
Scientist will land on the moon but they can't read
My God is magnificent, world is twistin'
The atheists are like little kids, "I ain't listenin'"
People caught up in them things of the world
Want the money, want the fame, got my chain, want the girls
Seems crazy to me, basically
I find it funny that money's become a god so bleak
Thinkin' 'bout, makes me laugh
Why would you wanna worship somethin' I can rip in half?

[Chorus]
Yeah, I got Jesus and nothin' in this world is comin' between us
I'ma let it out, this ain't no secret
So errybody put your hands up and scream it
I got Jesus and nothing in this world is comin' between us
I'ma let it out, this ain't no secret
So errybody put your hands⁠—

[Verse 3]
A lot of people live they lives so powerless
Give their life to the Devil, he devours it
You look closer and, Satan, he's a coward, kids
Give your life to God, He'll show you what power is, yeah
What I gotta do to make you see my God died in one day but rose in three?
Supposedly, soldiers said they fell asleep
Nah, God knocked them off of they feet, nah
Keep thinkin' that you fly with your money
While you're rollin' in your Corvettes chillin' with the honeys
Quit livin' for the chicks and pieces and give your life over to the one true Jesus

[Chorus]
Yeah, I got Jesus and nothin' in this world is comin' between us
I'ma let it out, this ain't no secret
So errybody put your hands up and scream it, come on!
Yeah, I got Jesus and nothing in this world is comin' between us
I'ma let it out, this ain't no secret
So errybody put your hands up and scream, "Yeah, I got Jesus"

[Outro: NF & Crowd]
I want y'all to do somethin' with me
Now when I say "I got" y'all say "Jesus"
I got Jesus, I got Jesus
When I say "Y'all better" you say "Believe it"
Y'all better believe it, Y'all better believe it
Yeah
Thanks, y'all

NF (stylized as ИF), real name Nathan Feuerstein (pronounced “fire-STINE”), is a rapper and songwriter from the small town of Gladwin, Michigan. As a child, Nate’s parents went through a divorce, where he would then live with his mother. Later on, Nate’s life started getting more difficult whenever his mother’s boyfriend started physically abusing him. However, the most traumatic event in Nate’s life was finding his mother dead from a drug overdose.

During the hard times of his life, Nate would fall back on music to escape from the world and express himself freely by writing music and then recording it on his karaoke machine with instrumentals playing in the background. In 2008, Nate participated in the Fine Arts Festival rap competition.

In 2010, he released his first album, Moments, independently. The album got him a record deal with Xist Music in 2012, with a new stage name, NF. Nate released two songs with Xist, and an EP was announced, but never released because he decided to leave the label (however, most of these songs can be found online). NF starting working with fellow Michigan producer, Tommee Profitt, searching for a new label.
