| Yesterday, my nigga had told me his brother died
|
| A day before that, his homeless uncle was cold outside
|
| A week before, he seen the cancer in his mother’s eyes
|
| Two weeks before that, couldn’t pay his rent 'cause he lost his job
|
| A month before that, he lost the custody of his daughter
|
| Six months before that, her mother said she won’t see her father
|
| And this before he did a year when them charges was brought up
|
| I shook my head, turned around, then found a hundred dollars
|
| I don’t know why He keep blessing me
|
| I don’t know why He keep blessing me
|
| I don’t know why He keep blessing me
|
| I don’t know why He keep blessing me
|
| I don’t know why, I don’t know why, I don’t know why
|
| I don’t know why He keep blessing me
|
| I don’t know why He keep blessing me
|
| I don’t know why He keep blessing me
|
| I don’t know why He keep blessing me
|
| I don’t know why, I don’t know why, I don’t know why
|
| Yesterday, I invaded privacy of a home
|
| The day before that, my partner had fronted me a zone
|
| A week before, I had loaded bullets inside that chrome
|
| Two weeks before that, I shot them bullets and he was gone
|
| A month before that, I cursed my mother then slammed the door
|
| Six months before that, I hit my woman, she hit the floor
|
| I stormed out, then seen a black Honda Accord
|
| Them hollow tips missed me then hit that little boy
|
| I don’t know why He keep blessing me
|
| I don’t know why He keep blessing me
|
| I don’t know why He keep blessing me
|
| I don’t know why He keep blessing me
|
| I don’t know why, I don’t know why, I don’t know why
|
| I don’t know why He keep blessing me
|
| I don’t know why He keep blessing me
|
| I don’t know why He keep blessing me
|
| I don’t know why He keep blessing me
|
| I don’t know why, I don’t know why, I don’t know why
|
| So today I laid in my bed, stared at the ceilin'
|
| Closed my eyes, then asked myself how I was feelin'
|
| I analyzed on how a saint can play the villain
|
| Is my life coincidental or just God willin'?
|
| I came to grips, jumped up, looked out the window
|
| See my nigga had that same little boy that didn’t know
|
| Bullets is nameless, I guess this was meant for
|
| Me to give them a hundred dollars then trash my pistol
|
| Now I know why He keep blessing me
|
| Now I know why He keep blessing me
|
| Now I know why He keep blessing me
|
| Now I know why He keep blessing me
|
| Now I know why, now I know why, now I know why
|
| Now I know why He keep blessing me
|
| Now I know why He keep blessing me
|
| Now I know why He keep blessing me
|
| Now I know why He keep blessing me
|
| Now I know why, now I know why, now I know why
|
| So I can bless you
|
| So I can bless you
|
| So I can bless you
|
| Yeah, you
|
| Lord help me
|
| Cause I need You
|
| I know this weed is burning
|
| And I’m on drink number two
|
| But it’s all to soothe the pain from this
|
| Cold, cold world
|
| Sometimes I think it can help me
|
| But this buzz here is temporary
|
| So I’m talking to You
|
| This sick world will drive a sane man crazy
|
| Dead birds dropping out the sky, daughters having their fathers' babies
|
| And this the news I hear
|
| When my god kids, nieces, and nephews turn a year
|
| I wonder will it get better
|
| A little cheddar will make it better
|
| But the risk of fast cash
|
| Will make last year’s Christmas gift be my last
|
| But somehow You keep blessing me
|
| But somehow You keep blessing me
|
| But somehow You keep blessing me
|
| But somehow You keep blessing me
|
| But somehow, but somehow, but somehow
|
| But somehow You keep blessing me
|
| But somehow You keep blessing me
|
| But somehow You keep blessing me
|
| But somehow You keep blessing me
|
| But somehow, but somehow, but somehow
|
| If I just keep the faith
|
| I know You’ll be right there
|
| Sometimes it may not seem that You are there
|
| But You’re there
|
| I feel You’re there
|
| You’re everywhere
|
| And I thank You for
|
| Protecting me in these streets
|
| From danger seen and unseen
|
| I never know
|
| What happened the night
|
| I wasn’t there
|
| Something told me leave so I left
|
| News the next morning
|
| Three guys shot after the club
|
| Awwhh, listening to that small voice
|
| Oh it saved my life |
