Pray
作词:Shawn C Carter, Sean Combs, Levar Coppin, Alan Hawkshaw, Deleno Matthews
Deliver me from my enemies, oh God Defend me from all those that rise up against me Deliver me from the work of inequities The Savior from the blood of me
Look, mind state of a gangster from the 40's Meet the vicious mind of Motown's Berry Gordy Turn *** **** into a chain of 40/40's Sorry, my jewelery so gawdy
Slid into the party with my new pair of Maury's America meet the gangsta Shawn Corey Hey young world wanna hear a story? Close your eyes and you could pretend you're me
A cut from the cloth of the Kennedy's Frank Sinatra having dinner with the Genovese This is the genesis of a nemesis Mother America's not witnessing
The Harlem renaissance birthed black businesses This is the tale of lost innocence As the incense burns and the turn tables turn And that Al Greens plays
I see my mother's Afro As momma taps her toes as she *** *** *** And my poppa just left the house In search of the killer of my Uncle Ray
And she's trying to calm my nerves As I observe this is just one day And what tomorrow has in store We could never be sure so all we can do is pray
Because of your strength While I walked upon the For God is my defense Pray for me
As I head towards my home room I observe the rooms though needles on the ground I hear a car go vrooom drug dealer In the BM with the top down
As the girls start to giggle I ask Why you laugh? They say, 'You too little' One day you'll understand when you become a man 'Bout things you have to get you
Fast forward freeze frame on my **** Fist full of dollars ignorance is so blissful 更多更详尽歌词 在 ※ Mojim.com 魔镜歌词网 I didn't choose this life, this life chose me Around here is the **** that you just do
I just left school, the same BM Is pulled over by the boys dressed blue They had they guns drawn screaming just move Unless there something else you suggest we can do
He made his way to the trunk, opened it like huh A treasure chest was removed Cops said he'll be back next month What we call corrupt he called paying dues
Now when the rules is blurred, as they is, he were What am I to do but pray, pray the Lord, forgive me Pray guys, survive for what I'm about go through Pray
Deliver me in thy righteousness It cause me to escape And climb thine air until Save me Lord Pray for me
Anyway there's oppression the drug profession Flourishes like beverages refreshing Sweet taste of sin everything I've seen made me everything I am
Bad drug dealer or a victim I beg What came first moving chickens or the egg? This is why I be so fresh I'm trying to beat life Because I can't cheat death
Treat shame with shamelessness Ain't stainless is that aim this is You know who's game this is move Coke like Pepsi It don't matter what the brand name is
I stand behind mine Everything I do I'm a man behind mine I'm not a angel I'm sure but every night before I lay I drop my knees to the floor and I pray
The name shall endure forever The name shall be continued as long as the sun will Pray for me Men shall be blessed in him All nations shall call him blessed In Your name I pray Pray for me For your blessings
