Текст песни Ghetto Prayer - FSB Dee Kay

Lord listen to my kind words
Cause my heart is slowly dying
Everybody tryna sale dreams
But I ain't even buying
Asking myself is what I'm doing really worth the time?
I got dreams of hitting a couple million down the line
Should I work or move work
I got some hard decisions?
Take orders from the man
Or mix up in this kitchen
They say life about choices and taking risks
I learned that a long time ago
I found myself bout to kill a man
And then I thought about my kids though
I could never let them see me down
In jail or 6 feet underground
I'll rather die like a man than live like a coward
Pac said there's a ghetto up in heaven and it's ours
I get down on my knees and pray to the man above
That he protect me in these streets and all the ones that I love
I lost a lot to these streets man my heart turned cold
Will I die before I wake?
Only the lord knows
Lord forgive me for my sins I don't ask a lot
Don't want my kids seeing their daddy in a pine box
If there's a heaven
I just hope I make it there
I know that God cares listen to my ghetto prayer
God protect me from these demons and my enemies
Importantly protect me from the ones that's kin to me
I can't trust nobody I can't trust my family
If I was still up in these streets lord knows where I will be
If push comes to shove I gotta load up the straps
It's hard being a broke its even harder being black
They don't wanna see you make it, unless you fake it
Scarface said the world is mines so Ima take it
I went to college beating the odds
Can you relate?
And they still don't wanna see a black man being great
My back against the wall
My eyes to my foes
If I get dropped somebody coming with me lord knows
My lil brother in these streets
I hope he understands
I'm tryna teach him
I can't tell him how to be a man
I'd rather die like a man
Than live like a coward
Pac said there's a ghetto up in heaven and it's ours
I get down on my knees and pray to the man above
That he protect me in these streets and all the ones that I love
I lost a lot to these streets man my heart turned cold
Will I die before I wake?
Only the lord knows
Lord forgive me for my sins I don't ask a lot
Don't want my kids seeing their daddy in a pine box
If there's a heaven
I just hope I make it there
I know that God cares listen to my ghetto prayer
Lord forgive me for my sins
Lord forgive me for my sins
Lord forgive me for my sins
Lord forgive me for my sins
