| I’m staring at this Bible as I keep glancing
|
| Dear Lord, I got questions and I need answers
|
| Tryna understand your vision, all I see is damage
|
| Just a bunch of dead bodies in the street camping
|
| A bunch of lost souls on their feet standing
|
| We supposed to be your children, I thought we family
|
| You’re supposed to be my Father, bruh, I need answers
|
| We don’t need to die young, we just need chances
|
| Tired of living on the edge so we keep scrambling
|
| Tryna talk to these strippers but they keep dancing
|
| We just wanna be number one like Steve Francis
|
| Bow our heads, say a prayer, now the seed’s planted
|
| Everywhere I turn, I’m seeing emcees vanish
|
| Lot of good niggas gone, I don’t understand it
|
| Lot of families lost and they seem stranded
|
| I ain’t tryna disrespect you, I just need answers (woo)
|
| I know you’re watching us from heaven thinking, «Who to save?» |
| (boom)
|
| Cherry pickin' who should go next and who should stay
|
| I’d be on my way to heaven if I knew the way
|
| And bring back every good nigga you choose to take
|
| They say you never wrong, but you done made a few mistakes
|
| 'Cause you taking the wrong niggas, maybe you should trade
|
| Trade us back all the real ones, remove the fakes
|
| I think you should trade
|
| Give us 2Pac back, and take that nigga Suge (ooh!)
|
| Let the legend resurrect and he gon' live for good (ooh!)
|
| I been screaming, «Thug life «in every different hood (thug life, thug life)
|
| Tilanda:
|
| If only you could bring him back, Lord I wish you would
|
| Give us Biggie, give us Pun, give us triple X (woo hoo)
|
| Take that nigga Trump with you, that’s a bigger threat (woo hoo)
|
| There’s too much power for a coward with no intellect (woo hoo)
|
| That’s a bigot with a collar, there’s a disconnect (woo hoo)
|
| Niggas dying, Mama crying, Grandma need a tissue
|
| Niggas shootin' up a church, now I need a pistol
|
| All them niggas still livin', you don’t see the issue
|
| But how you take Selena and then you take Aaliyah with you?
|
| I ain’t tryna disrespect, just need to meet up with you (Lord)
|
| I ain’t tryna overstep, just want to reason with you (Lord)
|
| Give us back our loved ones and take the evil with you (Lord)
|
| Send them suckers straight to hell, they don’t need a vigil (woo!)
|
| I need you to give us back Martin Luther (yeah), take Martin Shkreli (take!)
|
| Kamaron Gray:
|
| Give us back Malcolm, take R. Kelly
|
| R.I.P. |
| Lil Snupe, give that boy his life back
|
| Take Eric Holder, give us Eric Wright back
|
| I’m sending you this message, Lord, I hope you hit me right back
|
| They say I’m on the wrong train, I know I’m on the right track (yeah)
|
| 'Cause Trayvon gone, and all he did was tryna fight back
|
| Zimmerman walk around free, we don’t like that (we don’t like that)
|
| Why you take our mothers from us? |
| (woo hoo)
|
| Our fathers and our sisters and our cousins from us? |
| (woo hoo)
|
| Got these children getting murdered while they double dutchin'
|
| Wonder why the fuck you take Nipsey Hussle from us?
|
| Damn, you took a true king, a true brother from us
|
| This a fuckin' marathon, but they runnin' from us
|
| Now everybody got guns, nigga’s up to something
|
| And every gangsta wanna prove that they tough or something
|
| You know it’s not fair, tell the truth, I’ve been in my feelings too
|
| But if you took Emmett Till, at least take Dylann Roof
|
| At least take James Holmes, I ain’t even mad at that
|
| Just bring back Whitney, and give us Michael Jackson back
|
| Feds want me in the slammer, damn
|
| Tilanda
|
| Ain’t no justice for Sandra Bland, we up like the ceiling fan
|
| Lord, if you listenin', I’m just lookin' for a hand to hand
|
| Take out the fuck niggas and give us back our fam again
|
| Drownin' in my tears, tryna pray for something (woo)
|
| Wonder why you give us life for you to take it from us (woo)
|
| Wonder why you give us family then erase them from us (woo)
|
| Maybe hopefully you can have a conversation with us (yeah)
|
| Maybe I’m just probably tripping 'cause I need a hug (I need a hug)
|
| The hood can’t find jobs, now we need a plug (we need a plug)
|
| Everybody and their mama tryna be a thug
|
| I don’t go to church 'cause I’m afraid of being judged
|
| I’ve been starin' at the ceiling as I lie in bed |
| Watchin' niggas follow trends like Simon Says (yeah)
|
| I pray you give us back the real ones and try again
|
| Or maybe take them niggas that deserve to die instead
|
| Tomi Lahren run her mouth and then she get defensive
|
| Laura Ingraham laughin' at death and disrespectin'
|
| I really feel like you should teach them stupid hoes a lesson
|
| Either that or give us back somebody who deserve the blessings
|
| I left out a bunch of names that I forgot to mention
|
| Cost too much to pay attention, then it got expensive
|
| Father forgive me, for I know not what I do
|
| And now I’m reachin' out to you, hopin' you hear me and return the message
|
| (Joyner)
|
| Kamaron Gray:
|
| I know that you got our back and that you’re not against us
|
| Or maybe you just love us so you doin' shit to test us
|
| I just kinda thought that you would do more to protect us
|
| They say that the good die young and I ain’t on the guest list
|
| I’ve been drinkin', Lord forgive me, it’s my blood racin'
|
| I don’t know what I’m thinking, I’m just frustrated
|
| I don’t mean to question you, I’m just confused
|
| I don’t know what else to do, I’ve been patient and it sucks waiting
|
| Took my mans from me, that forever hurts
|
| But puttin' the blame on you, that’d never work
|
| I know this ain’t your fault, it’s the Devil’s work
|
| Devil’s work |
