| Girl, Me and the Lods been friends for a mighty long time
|
| (such a mighty long time, such a mighty long time)
|
| And girl, the thought of leavin' you has never crossed my mind
|
| (Well oh oh.)
|
| Up in the street and misguided never payed attention
|
| So I got my soul devine, player’s soul decided
|
| To let my soul confide with the lights of him
|
| Who the father, my bread and my water
|
| I never bought a cue and into this (?)
|
| Down in my world are you going let you hypocrits
|
| It’ll take your life to be a Christian man
|
| I hope you learn, everything else
|
| Is in vein so you’re bound to burn
|
| Gonna break your bone
|
| I’m in a war don’t let this life game over-rule
|
| Trying take control of you
|
| That’s all the devil do
|
| God was in Jesus, God is in us
|
| But God ain’t in the barrel of that pistol that you bust
|
| You can play this game wrong, you gotta take it how it goes
|
| Is there ever a feeling for living if the body’s gone
|
| I never understood why what can make a man cry
|
| It can make a man strong when nobody’s on his side
|
| Girl, (girl) Me and the Lords been friends for a mighty long time
|
| (such a mighty long time, such a mighty long time)
|
| And girl, the thought of leavin' you has never crossed my mind
|
| (Never crossed my mind, never crossed my mind, oooh)
|
| (Well oh oh.)
|
| Back and forth, night and day, you repeat the same scene
|
| Standing at the pool a bit, time to repent again
|
| Mostly men have a gun just put that down on circle purpose
|
| When the poo of the world, got me standin by the circle
|
| Agitate you, yes it does, this is what you though was love
|
| Only name, same to be lust, mixed emotions make you wanna bust
|
| Mamma tryin, children cryin, dad outta work, welfare lying
|
| Prejudice, always see, the bottom of the barrel
|
| Falling down on my knees, heavenly father, here we go on knowing
|
| That we get to heaven, there’s gonna be some open arms
|
| Judgment was man-made, not a (.), and this I recorded
|
| But I didn’t live the party, but I thank that my heart beat
|
| Gotta make me, oh sure Jesus I don’t know if there’s a hell
|
| But I know I’ve whitnessed hell here, all I do is dwell here
|
| Trying not to trail here, saying too much will get you knocked off or locked up
|
| in jail here
|
| Tell me do you smell fear, knowing that we so near
|
| Trying to take the voices of the truth, out the youth ear
|
| And if you late a time frame, you play all kind of mind games
|
| I ain’t put my life on the line for a damn thing
