Prayin For Help |
Our father |
Who are in heaven |
Hallowed be thy name |
Thy kingdom come |
Thy will be done on earth, as it is in heaven |
Give us this day, our daily bread |
Forgive us for our trespasses |
As we forgive those who trespass against us |
Lead us not into temptation |
But deliver us from evil |
God is tha kingdom, tha power, and the glory |
Foreva and eva, hmp amen |
Man Im prayin fo help |
While I lookin at the life I left |
Its kinda hard not to hate myself |
But quiet is kept |
Right or wrong its just tha way I felt |
I might be better off prayin for death |
On my knees I knelt, |
Still tryin ta find a way ta except |
That aint a way I can help nobody till I save myself |
Technically Im still a slave myself |
I gotta climb out tha grave myself |
Man, I played myself |
But when I look at all tha fans i touched |
I ask how can a man whos done so much, be treated so unjust |
Cause I tried to inspire tha folks |
You wanna condem cause they sell dope |
Well man, show em tha ropes |
Be a fatha or a football coach |
A role model lord asemble tha hope |
Take anotha approach |
Instead of testifiyin againt em in court |
Handcuffin em and closin tha doe, so they can be worse than befo |
Cant you see they only do what they know |
And you wonder why they don care no mo |
Life aint fair, I know |
But why Im hated everywhere i go |
Next time you wanna compare my flow just know |
Im prayin fo help |
Askin somebody else to give me a hand, Im tryin hard but i am only a man |
Man, Im prayin fo help |
Hopin somebody else could see what I see, its like tha hood only matter ta me |
They got me prayin fo help |
Hopin sombody eles can carry tha torch, Im all alone wit no kind of support |
While I was prayin fa help |
Realized i’on need nobody else, If god wit me i can do it myself |
Tired of just prayin fo help |
I know its only one king, one thing, one being only somethin I believe without |
seeing |
And with all my faith |
I pray somehow, some way, regaurdless of what anyone say |
I believe one day |
That Ima change my life, get right, start livin like christ, to tha end of my |
fight |
Ima be defendin my strife |
Till somebody come and shut off my lights |
I aint neva gon quit |
No matta how difficult its gon get |
And you can bet whateva on this |
Im foeva gon spit |
Harder than niggas hatin on tip |
You can take away and place it on tip |
I double my load |
Carry it as tha trouble unfolds |
Hold yo’lls, and I bet I dont fold |
Put that on my soul |
If it take till Im a hundred years old |
Bet Im reachin everyone of my goals |
No |
Hah, just so many times |
I don wished I could change my mind |
Change my life and leave tha game behind |
And its been so many days |
I don prayed I could find a way |
Find tha heart and tha time to say |
Only so many are blessed |
Wit so many chances, |
So many checks, |
So many fans, |
Wit so many arrests |
And its been so many deaths |
So many prisons wit niggas in there |
And tha system keep playin them to tha left |
Man, so many tests, |
So many hatas love seein ya stress |
But tribulations come wit being tha best |
Still its so many who flex |
Singin bout texts |
When they greener than shreks |
Sellin dreams, never seen in tha jets |
That’s why Im seen as a threat |
So many stripes |
Off tha streaks of my vest |
When so many rappers get so little respect |
Now niggas faith on tha shelf |
Cause of tha cards that a nigga was delt |
Or tha heart that a nigga don delt |
So many niggas don left out of da hood |
Instead of givin back they stayed fo they self |
So many playin they self |
Instead of readin, educatin they self |
The ones that don even pray fo they self |
Got me |
