AMEN Lyrics
[Intro: Johnny Venus & Musiq Soulchild]
Yeah, yeah (Baby, yeah)
Baby (Maybe we can)
I need devotion, I need attention
Someone to do things I can not mention
Someone to prove to me that you're different
Someone who got it, someone that gets it
[Chorus: Johnny Venus]
Get down on your knees for me
Get down on your knees for me
Get down on your knees for me
If you really love me, if you really need me
[Verse 1: Johnny Venus]
If I ever catch a case, it's 'cause I clapped a racist
Pardon my lateness, I was comin' into my greatness, yеah
Cole World, I'ma heat it up
Four, five, six hundrеd mils, I'ma eat it up
Shoutout Dreamville, know it kills you to see us up
When I hit the scene, rock more boats than Aaliyah
This shit for my people, I ain't got no equal
We in this for life, you should check the sequel, baby
[Chorus: Johnny Venus, Musiq Soulchild & Both]
Get down on your knees for me (For me)
Get down on your knees for me, yeah (For me)
Get down on your knees for me
If you really love me, if you really need me, yeah
Yeah, yeah (Baby, yeah)
Baby (Maybe we can)
I need devotion, I need attention
Someone to do things I can not mention
Someone to prove to me that you're different
Someone who got it, someone that gets it
[Chorus: Johnny Venus]
Get down on your knees for me
Get down on your knees for me
Get down on your knees for me
If you really love me, if you really need me
[Verse 1: Johnny Venus]
If I ever catch a case, it's 'cause I clapped a racist
Pardon my lateness, I was comin' into my greatness, yеah
Cole World, I'ma heat it up
Four, five, six hundrеd mils, I'ma eat it up
Shoutout Dreamville, know it kills you to see us up
When I hit the scene, rock more boats than Aaliyah
This shit for my people, I ain't got no equal
We in this for life, you should check the sequel, baby
[Chorus: Johnny Venus, Musiq Soulchild & Both]
Get down on your knees for me (For me)
Get down on your knees for me, yeah (For me)
Get down on your knees for me
If you really love me, if you really need me, yeah
[Post-Chorus: Musiq Soulchild]
Baby, say a prayer for me, yeah (Prayer)
Put one in the air for me, yeah (Air)
Show me that you care, you'll always be there
Promise that you'll never leave
[Verse 2: Doctur Dot]
Man, all these hoes really for the streets!
I ain't judgin', baby, ain't got shit to do with me
And I know I'm a dog, it ain't too much that I can say (Awoo)
But don't be judgin' me, girl, if you ever fucked for free (Huh)
So when you tryna link? Girl, I need you to gon' throw it back
And bust it open like you 'posed to
Arch your back and take it like I owe you
You ain't never seen a nigga like me, nothin' close to
Bitch, I'm like the slums with a Whole Foods tryna get to know you
Let it out, baby, scream for me
It's how you jump to put on jeans for me (Damn)
Prince Hakeem, that's my queen to be (Ooh-wee)
And she finna fuck me like she really love me, yeah
[Chorus: Johnny Venus, Musiq Soulchild & Both]
Get down on your knees for me (For me)
Get down on your knees for me, yeah (For me)
Get down on your knees for me
If you really love me, if you really need me, yeah
Baby, say a prayer for me, yeah (Prayer)
Put one in the air for me, yeah (Air)
Show me that you care, you'll always be there
Promise that you'll never leave

Genius Annotation
Speaking on “Amen,” EarthGang shares: “’Amen’ is jammin! It’s honest, and the world needs a little more honesty. It shows our versatility as artist and producers. There was some initial uncertainty about putting the song out amongst the team.” Even Musiq Soulchild took some time to add on: “I can’t say ‘get down on your knees for me.’ Then we explained that it’s about showing someone you’re really in their corner. It’s a beautiful song about expressing love in all its many forms.”
