Pray for Me |
Here’s the tale of a young black male raised in these city streets |
Out here hustling to make ends meet in a world that’s so corrupt |
That’s ran by greed, money and the power for me, I’m a survivor |
I do what I have to and only God can judge me for that |
So before you cash your stones down on me |
I want you to take a look at yourself in the mirror |
And ask somebody to pray for you |
'Cause that’s all I’m asking is to pray for me, understand |
I was born around gangstas, hustlers and killers |
Drug dealers with math figures making hella scrilla |
In the city of Chi, the home of the Gs |
If ya don’t work, ya don’t eat that’s been the code of the streets |
As for me, I was brought up at an early age |
Learned how to cook cane, started to gang bang |
And it’s a damn shame, I chose game |
But see I’ma knuckle headed nigga with no one to blame |
And I’ma gonna keep on tipping under the street lights |
And be wondering which nigga wanna take my life |
Until then I’m staying two feet in front of you haters |
I’m living the street life and I just can’t get away |
I don’t know if I’ma gonna make it to another day |
So every night I pray, oh, I pray |
I’m living the street life and I just can’t get away |
I don’t know if I’ma gonna make it to another day |
So every night, I pray |
Well, I’m surrounded by rats, roaches and dope fiends |
My whole world is being weighed up on a triple beam |
Man, I don’t know whats in store for me god |
Will I reach 21? |
Why is life so damn hard? |
See thats the question that’s asked |
And is there a heaven or hell can the young black live |
Or will he be chained in the cell |
I don’t know as for me I only trusted a few |
I had to hustle to survive now, what else could I do |
They say, there’s chances for everybody that’s bullshit |
That little girl had no chance when that bullet hit |
I mean it blew to the sky and all you heard was a cry |
Oh Lord, don’t let my baby die |
I’m living the street life and I just can’t get away |
I don’t know if I’ma gonna make it to another day |
So every night I pray, oh, I pray |
I’m living the street life and I just can’t get away |
I don’t know if I’ma gonna make it to another day |
So every night, I pray |
'Til the day that I die, I’ll stay true to my neighborhood |
Fuck with my neighborhood nigga, I wish you would |
Ain’t shit changed like, oh, once said |
And oh, no, fool my nigga, Fred ain’t dead |
Neither is Pook or Kansas City, true OG’s still here with me |
My homie boo, boo what up? |
And you know, I cant forget about my nigga, nigga, Novesnake |
Nightime boats and Herbie |
Shine and Cherelle would ya pray for me |
I rock Genue death so dam senseless |
Big houses, what the fucking radio been missing |
And there’s one more nigga that be true to my heart |
Mr. Motion, you the reason while I’m breaking 'em off, so our |
I peed 'em to dead, whole reason was love |
To that nigga twist for believing in me, I got a shorty to feed |
My priority is to make sure this shit don’t have to struggle like me |
And if I could ask for one more wish |
I tell 'em, I wanna hug ya 'cuz I’m missing ya since |
I’m living the street life and I just can’t get away |
I don’t know if I’ma gonna make it to another day |
So every night I pray, oh, I pray |
I’m living the street life and I just can’t get away |
I don’t know if I’ma gonna make it to another day |
So every night, I pray |
So I’m asking to pray for me, mama, pray for me |
Daddy, pray for me, baby, pray for me |
Please pray for me, pray for me |
Pray for me, pray for me |
