When my momma hear this, I know she gon' be feelin' this
Her son make her feel good like photosynthesis
My first fur was brown, just like cinnamon
First bitch was rowdy, but no frown, just tremblin'
All about the melanin, always bring an L in
Always 'bout the racks like Serena and them
He was sellin' dope, not like Karina and them
And my dawg was sellin' wet like Katrina and them
And I be rockin' Westwood like the mascot
I'm a drunk superhero, gotta keep the Hanco*ck
Gotta eat like Kyle Pad, not pad thai
f*ck with mine, f*ck around, be in your pad tight
You nigg*s livin' life with hallucinogens
You livin' life good, it's seducin' me
That nigg* too sick, he need some Mucinex
I'm in the backseat, I'm gettin' super neck
Pray Allah hold me, I keep my arms wide open
It's never ever all over
f*ck the cost, pay it all forward, you takin' off
Taste exhaust from a car motor, taper in the cloth
My day get started, thanks, praises to my God
Then get lost, thoughts savorin', don't take it as a loss
Octavian, the preacher strange as nigg*s thought
Used to say it's odd, sway the con, I'm twenty-five now
Tryna find a baby moms, times changin', dawg
Chopped and screwed, group home, baby Quad, dice shaking
Dark days ahead, I got a flame to spark, time is racist
Problems all related, they both say the Sun phased at 180
f*ck it, 4/20 blaze it, unravelin' the blunt
Trees breakin', she makin' it a log
Fifty paces in the same place, jog your memory
Cheap mason, we got 'em all, how the bait taste? You waiting in a pond
Tell Dom he wanna turn it down, man
Turn it down Dom
Turn it up
The lyrics to ZelooperZ's "Easter Sunday" appear to be a deeply personal reflection on his life experiences and struggles. The lines "When my momma hear this, I know she gon' be feelin' this" and "Her son make her feel good like photosynthesis" suggest a desire to make his mother proud and to bring joy into her life. The references to his first fur being brown like cinnamon and his first girlfriend being rowdy but exciting indicate a nostalgia for the past and a sense of appreciation for the formative experiences that have shaped him.

He also references the drug trade and the devastation wrought by Hurricane Katrina, further highlighting the gritty reality of survival in marginalized communities.
In the chorus, ZelooperZ seems to find a sense of hope and faith through his religion. Lines like "Pray Allah hold me, I keep my arms wide open / It's never ever all over" suggest a trust in a higher power to guide and protect him. Ultimately, the lyrics to "Easter Sunday" paint a portrait of a complex and layered individual navigating life's many challenges.
