Lyrics Hustler's Prayer - Torae

Hustler's Prayer

If the game shakes me or breaks me
I hope it makes me a better man
Take a better stand make me a veteran
From the novice I was
When they speak on niggas that get it they talking bout us
And if they not they ain’t talking bout much A lot of lip professing
The number one no that you know when in this profession
This confession of sort can land you courts
And have the boys propped at your door
Battering rams knock down your door
6 in the morning niggas flushing that work
Got your neighbors looking crazy while he rushing to work
And I would still come with that work after its all over
Only job that you get and you start as the CEO of
And nigga a see me roll in cars they couldn’t afford
Playing Beemer Benz or Bentley out a Honda Accord
Type of life get you ignored Lord I’m not in favor
Though I don’t do Church much I still live by the prayer
To protect my position, my corner, my lair
While we out here, say the Hustlers Prayer
To protect my position, my corner, my lair
While we out here, say the Hustlers Prayer (x3)
To protect my position, my corner, my lair
While we out here, say the Hustlers Prayer
If the game shakes me or breaks me
I hope it makes me a better man
Take a better stand put money in my moms hand my wife, my daughter
Teach my little man to raise his fam & support 'em
Niggas hating ignore em get the money dip
And the cost of being captains going down with the ship
Nigga you either drown or you swim
You out or you in
Tryna walk the fine line when we ride is a sin
Niggas get 'Bloaw' right where you stand and Die where you land
Somebody ah fill your spot before the coroner can
Niggas ah clap the coroner van he knowing too much
Before the autopsy came & they know it was us
Figure you gotta know what we lust pussy paper & power
For the almighty dollar we moving weight by the hour
Suckers cringe & cower I got nothing to fear
Says the New Testament in the hustlers prayer
To protect my position, my corner, my lair
While we out here, say the Hustlers Prayer
To protect my position, my corner, my lair
While we out here, say the Hustlers Prayer (x3)
To protect my position, my corner, my lair
While we out here, say the Hustlers Prayer
