| Microphone check 1−2-3

| Eric Biddines on a beat made by Danny D
|
| If you feeling how the vibe is now
|
| Listen close with your ears they’ll become you eyes
|
| Listen close with your ears they’ll become your eyes
|
| Back with another one story of a mother who
|
| Single parent raising babies in a single room
|
| Have no idea how she gone make it barely pushing through
|
| She hardly make enough to pay the rent and it’s reduced
|
| Sister you don’t know the challenge when you’re worth it
|
| The devil put you under surveillance for a purpose
|
| But you gone flourish I can feel it
|
| That carpet that you cry upon one to lift your spirit
|
| And these bills don’t never stop accumulating
|
| And it’s a gamble when you filling out applications
|
| The third time this week you don’t really want to eat the ramen noodles you
|
| making
|
| The only thing you can really do is pray
|
| The only thing you can really do is pray
|
| Yeah
|
| Bow your head
|
| We taking chances
|
| Whenever we take glances
|
| Out the window pain but we ain’t praying like the mantis
|
| We step on ants and spray the cockroaches
|
| Not their fault where they look for food
|
| The place we call our home it’s
|
| Hard being good when you accepted
|
| The shit that come out our mouths we cover Chloraseptic
|
| For when I shout out I hope the lord protect me
|
| Carry that umbrella when it’s raining kinda hectic
|
| I once was him who used to travel with no gas
|
| Ignore the blinking light I said I get there if I had
|
| I know it’s hope for each and every person lately
|
| I been feeling like it’s more to life than just complaining
|
| Forgot bout praying
|
| Forgot bout love
|
| Forgot what I was supposed to write about on this here song
|
| And these bills don’t never stop accumulating
|
| And it’s a gamble when you filling out applications
|
| The third time this week you don’t really want to eat the ramen noodles you
|
| making
|
| The only thing you can really do is pray
|
| The only thing you can really do is pray
|
| Back with another one student try to finish school
|
| Said he don’t qualify to get the help he needed so
|
| He work a 9−5 and overtime for minimum
|
| No benefits he don’t complain that’s what he gotta do
|
| One day he get a check up saying he got cancer
|
| Around the time his doctor say insurance cancelled
|
| There goes his savings now he coming out of pocket
|
| No way to pay tuition now to go to college
