Desiigner - Talking To Jesus

Oct 30, 2025 64

Give Rating

This track is seen by critics as a bit of a departure or evolution in Desiigner’s sound. It features notable vocal samples, and a more classic/technical hip-hop style rather than some of his earlier louder trap-influenced work.

The lyrics suggest a focus on ambition, respect, wealth, and perhaps reflection, common hip-hop themes but delivered with a different sonical backdrop here.
The title Talking To Jesus might imply some layer of spiritual or introspective undertone, though the quoted lyrics above focus more on material/respect themes.

For fans of Desiigner, it offers a new flavor compared to his earlier hits (e.g., “Panda”).

It may mark a pivot in his style: more thoughtful, less purely hype-trap.

It’s fresh, released very recently, so being early to listen gives you a taste of his next phase.

Lyrics

[Intro]
web1 town, down town
In town, out of town
We got it goin' on
On 45, it's famous baby, here we go
(Architecture)

[Verse 1]
Since a youngin', always knew I'd be, I'd get more then rich
I got smarter then them guys, I got prepared when they switched
I done made it to the top, I know some niggas that wish
Almost died in LA city, New York City I miss
Still some things I gotta do, I gotta check off the list
I got money on my mind, I got respect on the wrist
My new bitch got diamonds on her, put the check on the fist
They can't count a hundred M's, I want the check when it hit
When I walk inside the room, they put respect on my shit
Rap legend number one, I'm not no regular pick
R.I.P. to them MC's, I'm on some legacy shit
Know some guys outside on some regular shit
R.I.P. to web1, I heard my nigga got hit
Damn, nigga we here, forever we miss
Niggas be around the world, you know the ignorant bliss
Choppa's got to stay around 'fore that cheese turn to swiss

[Interlude]
It's crazy, man, for real
I know we fought, man, but I ain't mean to web1 like that, mm

[Verse 2]
Hundred mil' on one gorilla, I could never forget
How the police ran up on me, I could never forget
Making money is the mission, I'ma get it, that's it
Leveled up and stayed lit
Get paid for poppin' my shit
Paparazzi get paid for takin' pics of my life
18 I got rich, I got rich overnight
Early bird to where I am, gettin' rich overnight
Wakin' up I see Jesus, I got a son in my life

[Outro: Desiigner & Desiigner's mom]
We are right now
Oh, you are? I just wanted to see your face
For real, word, you know, I'm just grindin'
Grindin', mama
You know web1, for sure, for sure
I know that's right. So when do you go to, um, New York web1
Um, I'm supposed to be in New York in a couple of days
I'm supposed to leave web1 right now. I'ma make a video, you know
Okay, so, so, web1
Nah, I'm doin' a show in, um, in a couple of spots
I'm out there doin' like promos and like videos right now
Oh okay
I'm doin' a freestyle right now so I'm gonna have to call y'all back
