| I’ve seen a lot pain since I was a child so
|
| (Pray for me)
|
| I’ve done a few things that just ain’t right so
|
| (Pray for me)
|
| What I’ve been through would make you cry so
|
| (Pray for me, pray for me)
|

|
| Ain’t no dope on the streets, mayne, I’m behind in my rent
|
| I ain’t got nothing to show for all the fedi that I done spent
|
| I told my mom where the cash at, my live insurance policy is the money
|
| She been planning on using to bury me
|
| My ribs touching, my paper struggling, mayne
|
| All my life I been hustling, running in place
|
| But can’t seem to finish the race
|
| See dudes get whopped in the face
|
| Get plucked like a bass, flew in the space for senselessness
|
| That’s why I stayed prayed up and say my grace
|
| Even when I’m blended
|
| Never know when your life is suspended
|
| God can take his arms from around you and easily end it
|
| At any time, any place, any where
|
| I know my life has been spared on several occasions
|
| Suckas hating, I’m still here
|
| I can block for what’s lost and never talk again to each other
|
| Why does it take a funeral to bring a family together?
|
| Bad weather always looks worse through a window
|
| Stressing and rubbing my temples
|
| I make it look easy but it’s really not all that simple
|
| I’ve seen a lot pain since I was a child so
|
| (Pray for me)
|
| I’ve done a few things that just ain’t right so
|
| (Pray for me)
|
| What I’ve been through would make you cry so
|
| (Pray for me, pray for me)
|
| I’m trying to change my life so
|
| (Pray for me)
|
| Young dude full of soul food, mama cooking pork chops
|
| Uncle slapping dominos, sister playing hop scotch
|
| And this was before the block got hot and infected
|
| And everybody knew my grand daddy well respected, check it
|
| Time went on and the game began
|
| I was losing comrades either death or the penn
|
| I was losing comrades but I’m stacking them ends
|
| We ever go to 600, we losing our friends
|
| When grand mama passed that’s when it all went bad
|
| Aunties don’t talk, my cousins fighting is bad
|
| In the snow Thanksgiving is like the ones we had and it’s sad
|
| So I express through a pen and a pad
|
| I’m on my third wind pimpin' and knowing Jesus is with me
|
| Ain’t no weapon form against me, back in common defeating
|
| I’ve been posted in the cut when them angels come get me
|
| Until that day, homie, just pray for me
|
| I’ve seen a lot pain since I was a child so
|
| (Pray for me)
|
| I’ve done a few things that just ain’t right so
|
| (Pray for me)
|
| What I’ve been through would make you cry so
|
| (Pray for me, pray for me)
|
| I’m trying to change my life so
|
| (Pray for me)
|
| My kinfolk, baby, momma on welfare, they house is bigger than ours
|
| 'Cause they got section 8 vouchers, W.I.C. |
| and benefit cards
|
| My home girl daughter diabetic, she like to eat a whole lot
|
| She only 9 and a half and taking insulin shots
|
| My dude got a heart condition, his ankle be swollen
|
| 'Cause he got high blood pressure and he refuse to quit smoking
|
| But I’m no better than y’all, I like to drink alcohol
|
| Break out the pen and start writing about the things that I saw
|
| Like kilo grams of that Peruvian flake
|
| Wrapped in aluminum foil and duck tape
|
| Bust open and throwed in the pot, foamy and mush
|
| Melted and locked in a shape of a gigantic size white cookie
|
| Put on the towel to dry and broken down into zips
|
| Quarters and half of 16's and yola get flipped
|
| I maintain my faith in G O D 'cause it’s just a test
|
| Repent, we confess, ask for gratefulness, yes, I’m blessed
|
| I’ve seen a lot pain since I was a child so
|
| (Pray for me)
|
| I’ve done a few things that just ain’t right so
|

|
| What I’ve been through would make you cry so
|
| (Pray for me, pray for me)
|
| I’m trying to change my life so
|
| (Pray for me)
|
| I’m here right now
|
| (Pray for me)
|
| I need y’all to take this, I need y’all to take this pain away
|
| (Pray for me)
|
| I’m trying, feels like I’m dying
|
| (Pray for me)
|
| I need y’all to pray for me, oh, Lord
|
| (Pray for me)
|
| Every time I look around
|
| (Pray for me)
|
| Somebody got something to say
|
| (Pray for me)
|
| (Pray for me)
|
| I need y’all to pray for me
|
| (Pray for me)
|
| I’m trying to do the right thing
|
| (Pray for me)
|
| Pray for me |
