(Intro) when I'm over here going through things / you're the only one that feels my pain in a minute they're going to know your name.
● if you're real then you can feel a homie / can't believe the last year didn't kill a homie / I remember what an older og homie told me / there's a reason why the Devils making life a struggle for me / man a hater hates to see a brother bubble / soon as I get out of trouble then it comes back in double / soon as I cleared up my case I went and caught another / plus I love my two little shorties but they don't call her mother / the weight I've been carrying on me's hella heavy / plus I haven't had a sober night since back in February / so many issues there impossible to inventory / it's like the world I'm living in's comparable to purgatory / mama don't believe that I really be trying to pray / trusting that Jehovah will help me to find a way / cuz I'm in the stage spinning in circles and in a daze / ever since the day my wife and my daughter they went away / a dozen red roses on a headstone shedding tears I don't have a clue how I'm going to make it in the coming years / everything is so unclear praying 'cause i know he's there / don't know where I'm going but I'm knowing you can take me there.
(Chorus) when I'm over here going through things you're the only one that feels my pain in a minute they're going to know your name x2
● couldn't help it that I grew up in the barrio caught up early momma taught me about the Bible though / the homies taught me how to make an easy dollar though holler at the women and to chief like a Navajo / at the places that I never should have ever been little kid watching neighbor shooting heroin / my sons mom is in the pen till 2033 killed a dude man I'm lucky that it wasn't me / homie Eric couldn't take it took his own life my boy Gill off a meth and he smokes pipes / my best friend just died on his motorbike now they caught his brother moving weight and want to give him life / hate the way its going down senses been on overload can't believe my daughter died held her as she turned cold / had me thinking suicide still I'm barely hanging on praying on my knees please can you keep me steady.
(Repeat Chorus)
● thank Jehovah that I am not dead or in the pan and everyday I get to kick it with my children / glad I even got a pot that I'm pissing in I mean I'm really glad we really got the house that we're living in / thank you for the food sitting on the dinner plate thank you for the money that you help me generate / thank you for the patience that should demonstrate giving me the time to try to heal and recuperate / plus the world is going mad everything is so unfair grateful that I got the Bible helping me to see it clear / man can never rule himself governments are powerless you're the only one that knows the ways of changing how it is / I know you're close to stepping in hope you see the good in me forgive me for my sins and forget about my hoodery / thank you for the chances paid by the ransom praying on my knees please help me to be ready.
(Chorus)
