Jelly Roll – NEED A FAVOR

Jelly Roll dropped this wonderful song caprioned “NEED A FAVOR.” Jason Bradley DeFord, known professionally as Jelly Roll, is an American prolific singer, rapper, and songwriter known for his collaborations with other top artists such as Lil Wyte, Struggle Jennings, and Tech N9ne.

However, Jelly Roll’s “NEED A FAVOR” is about turning to God in moments of desperation, even when feeling unworthy.

Let me say it reflects on personal struggles, guilt and the hope for divine help. It’s an honest plea for grace and forgiveness, thereby acknowledging human flaws while seeking strength and guidance.

Jelly Roll – NEED A FAVOR Lyrics;

I only talk to God when I need a favor
And I only pray when I ain’t got a prayer
So, who the hell am I, who the hell am I
To expect a Savior o-o-oh
If I only talk to God when I need a favor
But God I need a favor!

I know Amazing Grace, but I ain’t been livin’ them words
Swear I spend most Sundays, drunk off my ass, than I have in church
Hard cover King James only been savin’ dust on the nightstand
And I don’t know what to say by the time I fold my hands

I only talk to God when I need a favor
And I only pray when I ain’t got a prayer
So, who the hell am I, who the hell am I
To expect a Savior o-o-oh
If I only talk to God when I need a favor
But God I need a favor
Amen. Amen.

Yeah, I owe you more than one, and beggars can’t be choosers
But I’ll pay for all I’ve done, just please don’t let me lose her

I only talk to God when I need a favor
And I only pray when I ain’t got a prayer
So, who the hell am I, who the hell am I
To expect a Savior o-o-oh
If I only talk to God when I need a favor
But God I need a favor
Amen. Amen.
Amen. Amen.

Hangin’ in there, just barely
Throwin’ up prayers, like Hail Mary’s
If You’re still there, Lord spare me
Oh my God, oh my God – Hail Mary

Hangin’ in there, just barely
Throwin’ up prayers, like Hail Mary’s
If You’re still there, Lord spare me
Oh my God, oh my God – Hail Mary

I only talk to God when I need a favor
And I only pray when I ain’t got a prayer
So tell me, who the hell am I to expect a Savior
When I only talk to God if I need a favor
God I need a favor
Amen
God I need a favor, woah
Amen..

THE END..
