| I’m trying to climb the stairways to heaven like Led Zepplin
|
| Find that polished treasure like Ellie Levert
|
| I do my dirt so my kids see heaven on Earth
|
| But the pain on my heart it weighs heavy it hurts
|
| Hope you see my good intentions for whatever its worth
|
| Through self conviction when I mention my intentions in verse
|
| Like a preacher or a deacon when he’s speaking in church
|
| Know there’s a lesson that I’m teaching If you seeking my verse
|
| Like the shock of the hour be a grievous thing
|
| Like the dropping of them towers man its plain to see
|
| That them cowards can’t sing the song believers sing
|
| They rather march and hold hands like ML King
|
| The nigga in me like Malcolm Little said
|
| 'All Means Necessary'
|
| So by all means I’m armed and my weapons ready
|
| I got my lessons ready
|
| Hoping I learn them before I’m laid to rest and buried
|
| Have mercy on me Please have mercy on me Oh Lord, please have mercy on me Pressure bust pipes, pressure can also make a diamond
|
| Pressure can bust a man wrestling with his conscience
|
| His self-accusing spirit of his past
|
| (But I know ALLAH’s Mercy is greater than his wrath)
|
| So in that I not only pray for me I pray for he My dear brother Robert help him with his problems
|
| And the bumps and grinds
|
| And the evil things and thoughts that run through his mind
|
| Take a hand of my sister J. Blige
|
| As I listen to her life go down watching her life spin round
|
| On them records every track she singin prayer
|
| Give her No More Drama let her Rainy Days be clear
|
| Receiving signs from Osama that the days is near
|
| When babies is baby mommas, man them days is here
|
| And beings that them days is now
|
| I pray that Allah have mercy when my day come round
|
| We need your mercy, I need your mercy
|
| For my soul, for my soul
