Lyrics Venusaur - Bon Wavi

I put my heart and my faith into this
I know the risk and I'm taking the risk
Making mistakes yeah i gotta admit it
But I gotta keep my head up 'til I finish
I need to pray every night for forgiveness
Pray if they take me the angels gone take me
I pray my bro is gone hear what I'm saying
Pray I'm gonna make it gonna pray for a plan
Follow a plan orchestrated by God
Gotta stick to it and stay on my job
Hard on my self cause I know where I'm not
My name Josiah that means
I was born to be leader
That means that I gotta be different
They want me ganging
They want me to choose red or the blue
But I already made my decision
It's kinda like Pokémon

Yeah hey

Said it's kinda like Pokémon
Give me a minute to set the scene for you
So you can envision it
When you play Pokémon you gotta make decisions
And it's a big one right in the beginning
They tell you choose between Charmander Bulbasaur Squirtle
You gotta raise one til' you finish
It's kinda like us in the life that we living
We gotta choose and we gotta stick with it
Me I feel like I chose Bulbasaur
Mabye my weakness is fire
Cause they tried to burn me down
Yeah I remember they called me a liar
Gotta grind til' it's Ivysaur
I just need my XP to just get a little higher
I just pray by the end of my life
That I live a good life that my kid could admire
I love me some Pokémon I'm still a kid inside
I just done got a little brighter
The life that you choose to live really is yours to live
Me I just chose to inspire
I know one day I'll be Venusaur even if it come down to the wire

Yeah

Right now im just starting I feel like Bulbasaur
By the time that I finish I swear I'll be different
I swear I'll evolve just like Venusaur
If you think that you need it I need it more
Went to Roosevelt I ain't know Theodore
All that I learned in that school
Was to not walk alone by convience stores
And that some of your brothers ain't really there
And it's nobody you cant have pity for
I remember the times I was really there
I remember the times I was going for it
God was right there by my side
The whole time for it
I didn't even realize I had on a blindfold
To the top it's way higher than Eiffel
I know I need to get back in my Bible

Yeah hey

I know I need to get back in my Bible
Following Jesus the key to survival
Fighting these demons they eating my vitals
Pray that I finish my life as a legend
Pray when I die ima make it to heaven
Pray for my family make sure they protected
Pray for my soul when I cant take no more
Pray I don't lose no not one of my brothers
Pray for my Popps and my Mother i love ya'
Pray for my sisters we don't see each other like we used to do
But I'm always your brother I'm watching above you
Pray for my girl I'ma make her a wife
I'ma give her my son
Pray for myself I just look in the mirror
And see what I become

I remember the times when I needed guidance
I needed learning a lesson
He showed me a sign and it was like
Venusaur Solar Beam came straight from heaven
I gotta follow directions
I gotta sharpen my blessings
I feel like Lightning Mcqueen when he didn't win his race
And they had him down at Radiator Springs
And he was learning a lesson
I been learning them life lessons
God told me I gotta be ready
Cause he said somebody might test me
And if I ain't ready when they come to test me
Then trust me they might get me
I'ma give my all win lose or draw
I ain't gonna let em get me
