Here's the lyrics of Use This Gospel (Remix).

[Intro: Kanye West]
Uh-uh-uh, uh-uh-uh
Uh-uh-uh, uh-uh, uh
Uh-uh-uh, uh-uh-uh
Uh-uh-uh, uh-uh, uh

[Chorus: Kanye West]
Use this gospel for protection
It's a hard road to Heaven
We call on Your blessings
In the Father, we put our faith
King of the Kingdom
Our demons are tremblin'
Holy angels defendin'
In the Father, we put our faith
[Verse: Eminem]
I'm holding on (Yeah) but I don't know if I can take it much longer
Today's the day that I put all of my trust and faith in You, Father
Please let this hate make me stronger
'Fore they turn on me like a zombie
It's like I'm being strangled unconscious (Yeah)
When temptation is almost like Satan is making you tryna
Take you away from your daughters
Danglin' a bunch of painkillers on ya
Wavin' 'em in your face and then watch 'em comin' extra strength
And that's why they make 'em in rectangular objects
'Cause that's the shape of a coffin
Though, it ain't medication this time
But the devil's egging me on
And I ain't gonna let 'em break me 'cause I'm a soldier
You can bank on that promise like the Chamber of Commerce
So my savior, I call on
To rescue me from these depths of despair
So these demons better step like a stair
Because He is my shepherd
I'm armed with Jesus, my weapon is prayer
Soon as I squeeze it, I'm blessed like sneezes
Call me Yeezus, I'm F'd in the head, maybe I'm bonkers
Regardless, never claimed to be flawless
Long as the mistakes I've acknowledged
Y'all wish I would say something positive
Well, okay, then I'm positive
They'd rather trade weather with Mayweather
'Cause they would fare way better with them odds
Than they would exchanging some bars
Or trading any bars with Shady and probably is painfully obvious
To compare Godliness to an atheist
But I got them audiences raving (Woo) in amidst my squabbles
I got some awesome inspiration to drop 'em, off 'em
Pen and paper, I'm knockin' 'em off
Woke up on stage at a concert
Whole place looking like a mosh pit
Bible at my side like a rifle with a God-given gift
Every single day I thank God for
That's why I pay so much homage
Praises to Jesus, I'll always
[Chorus: Kanye West]
Use this gospel for protection
It's a hard road to Heaven
We call on Your blessings
In the Father, we put our faith
King of the Kingdom
Our demons are tremblin'
Holy angels defendin'
In the Father, we put our faith

[Outro]
Uh-uh-uh, uh-uh-uh
Uh-uh-uh, uh-uh, uh
Uh-uh-uh, uh-uh-uh
Uh-uh-uh, uh-uh, uh
Blessings from the altar got me feeling like I'm walking on water

The album is executive produced by DJ Khaled, the spiritual Allah, along honorary producers his sons, Asahd and Aalam Khaled.

Fun facts: DJ Khaled often has Lil Wayne, Future, Drake, Rick Ross, Buju Baton and Jay-Z on his albums.

Takeoff and Quavo without Offset. Apparently Offset has left the group.

Eminem may have dropped a diss on The Game.

Jay-Z said he's one of the few Black billies (billionaire). 

Jay-Z, Dr. Dre, Rihanna and Kanye West are billionaires.

JuiceWrld makes an appearance. The late rapper is regarded as one best in hip-hop. He died of a seizure sparked by an opioid overdose. His cousin Young Dolph was shot and killed in Memphis years later.

Kanye West's Use This Gospel was originally off the 2019 Jesus is King. Ye's had Kenny G and Pusha-T on the single. The remix was produced by Dr. Dre, Ye and Timbaland. Eminem did not cuss on the single. The single was supposedly a part of Dre's and Ye's collaboration album. Dr. Dre has hinted he has Em, Timbaland and Ye producing the long awaited Detox album.

We are the best!
