Teotl
Teotl is a central idea of Aztec religion. The Nahuatl term is often translated as "god", but it may have held more abstract aspects of the numinous or divine, akin to the Polynesian concept of Mana. In Pipil mythology Teut (Nawat cognate of Teotl) is known merely as the creator and the father of life. The nature of "Teotl" has been an ongoing discussion between scholars for many years.
Teotl is also a key element in the understanding of the fall of the Aztec empire, because it seems that the Aztec ruler Moctezuma II and the Aztecs in general referred to Cortés and the conquistadors as "Teotl" - it has been widely believed that this means that they believed them to be Gods, but a better understanding of "teotl" might suggest that they were merely seen as "mysterious" and "inexplicable".
Whereas in most Nahuatl translations of the Bible and Christian texts, "God" (אֱלֹהִ֔ים, Θεός) is translated with the Spanish word Dios, in modern translations by the Catholic Church in the 21st century, the word Teotzin, which is a combination of teotl and the reverential suffix -tzin, has been used officially for "God".

Bring Home Da Bacon
by: TotalRap (indo g):
Now c'mon and tear da club up,
Toss and floss 100,
Even if you don't want it,
But if ya got it flaunt it.
Angeldust get the jail break,
What the cuff locked up.
Snakes can slither like robbers into a bank,
My idea of a joke is no high school prank.
Call me on da phone and see what ya want,
Cause my three 6 mafia presents world domination.
Verse one (keisha):
Couldn't alwayz pay ya back,
Because I knew you would go buy crack.
I can't believe that he dropped me,
But now I know ya got me ohhhh.
Chorus (total and three 6 mafia):
Couldn't bring home the bacon,
Prepare for a world domination.
Couldn't bring home the bacon,
Prepare for world domination.
Verse 2 (kima):
Hey baby before we get in the mood,
What kind of work do you do?
Can ya bring home the bacon,
Or must I do it?
(pam)
Only you know about what you say boy,
Can you bring home the bacon or what?
Ohhhhh
Repeat chorus
Rap (gangsta boo):
Ready to tell you all,
That I like to ball take me to the mall?
Bring home the bacon cause satisfaction is waiting,
Anticipation can chill wit cream,
And still play it all mean.
Take it to the wrist the ice and the diamonds,
We can do the french kiss once I know what your about,
There can be a miracle when you believe,
Because I ride in a b-e-n-t-l-e but y?
