Who Did That to You?
18. John Legend Lyrics

Now I’m not afraid to do the Lords work,
I'm ready and willing to exact vengeance if necessary.

You say vengeance is his, but Imma do it first.
I believe in divine retribution, but I'm not afraid to take matters into my own hands.

I’m gonna handle my business in the name of the law.
I will seek justice in a lawful and orderly way.

Now if he made you cry, oh, I gotta know,
If someone hurt you emotionally, I'm invested in finding out who and why.

If he’s not ready to die, he best prepare for it.
If the perpetrator is not willing to face the consequences of their actions, they better start now.

My judgement’s divine, I'll tell you who you can call,
Because I believe in divine justice, I can confidently identify those who deserve punishment.

You better call the police, call the coroner,
The necessary authorities need to be called to handle the aftermath of the perpetrator's punishment.

Call up your priest, have him warn ya.
Even a religious figure would agree that justice needs to be served.

Walk in no peace when I find that fool
The perpetrator can expect no mercy or safety when I come for them.

Now I don’t take pleasure in a man’s pain,
I'm not looking to inflict pain for pleasure's sake.

But my wrath will come down like the cold rain.
If the perpetrator deserves punishment, they will receive it with the full force of my anger.

And there won’t be no shelter, no place you can go.
Once I set my sights on the perpetrator, they cannot escape me.

It's time to put your hands up, time for surrender,
The perpetrator should submit to my judgement and surrender.

I’m a vigilante, my law’s defender,
I take the law into my own hands to defend justice where it is needed.

You’re a wanted man, here everybody knows.
The perpetrator is now a public enemy and is being pursued by me.

Now he’ll keep on running, but I’m closing near,
Even if the perpetrator tries to run, I will relentlessly pursue them.

I'll hunt him down, take ability,
I will track down the perpetrator and take away their ability to harm others.

If you see me coming near, who you gonna call?
When the perpetrator faces me, they will know that they cannot escape or find help.

You better call the police, call the coroner,
The authorities need to be informed of the impending justice and punishment.

Call up your priest, have him warn ya.
Even those who may offer spiritual guidance would agree that justice must be served.

Won't be no peace when I find that fool
The perpetrator cannot expect to find peace or safety once I come for them.

You better call the doctor, call the lawyer,
The perpetrator will need medical and legal assistance once I find them.

I chase ‘em all the way to California,
Even if the perpetrator flees to another state, I will continue to pursue them.

Get my best trying to find that fool
I will use all my resources and skills to bring the perpetrator to justice.
