Look Over Me

Lord will you please
Look over me
I done seen a whole lot of pain in my life
This has got to be
My journey my path
In the midst of the dark
Will you show me please
All the obstacles in my way
That will hinder me
Lord will you please
Look over me
I done seen a whole lot of pain in my life
This has got to be
My journey my path
In the midst of the dark
Will you show me please
All the obstacles in my way
That will hinder me

There is nothing new under the sun
I chose to speak on all my struggles
Others picked up the guns
Both in pursuit of funds
Both journeys project a limited run
Still both keep pushing through the path
Regardless of aftermath and destruction of one
Self I play the cards that's dealt
Product of no moms no pops
Imagine how my granny felt
Raising me and bro in the heart of the barrio
Funds was low still we never went without
To me those are the things that count
Looking back at life and all the folks who held me down
From the weird kid on the block
To the man that I am now
Dont want to speak death into the universe
Im grateful for every breath that's in and out
All this to say
I never thought that I'd be the one that's still around
Friends and fam they came and went
A couple of homies is under ground
Or locked away off in the cage
Lord please keep humble because I know how easy it is to stray
This I pray

Lord will you please
Look over me
I done seen a whole lot of pain in my life
This has got to be
My journey my path
In the midst of the dark
Will you show me please
All the obstacles in my way
That will hinder me
Lord will you please
Look over me
I done seen a whole lot of pain in my life
This has got to be
My journey my path
In the midst of the dark
Will you show me please
All the obstacles in my way
That will hinder me

Picture perfect
Just the way its painted
Nothing out of place
Nothing ever changes
Just another day
Going through the phases
The story still the same
Thumbing through the pages
Smoke and mirrors disguise
What's in the eyes
Open wide to receive the divine
In the world seem hard to find
But if you continue to move towards the light
You just might be surprised at what's inside

Lord will you please
Look over me
I done seen a whole lot of pain in my life
This has got to be
My journey my path
In the midst of the dark
Will you show me please
All the obstacles in my way
That will hinder me
Lord will you please
Look over me
I done seen a whole lot of pain in my life
This has got to be
My journey my path
In the midst of the dark
Will you show me please
All the obstacles in my way
That will hinder me
