Heathen's Prayer

All praises to the source From the bottom of my heart From the bottom, the trenches PSA From the blocks to the docks Lost in reflection, trapped in the shadows Thoughts of depression, naps in the gallows With killers and criminals, life lessons, subliminal Where niggas get killed over principle Cause when you strapped, you feel invincible Can't relax, the love is invisible All we see is the hate Cause when you eating, niggas all in your plate When you was broke, niggas couldn't relate Think it's a joke, but it's fate It didn't happen by chance, had to make plans in advance Scraping the pans to come up with bands Counting grands, loose stitch, drop a hit Now it's blood on my hands It all started just bagging up grams Goddamn Before I lay me down to sleep I pray the Lord my soul to keep If I should die before I wake I pray the Lord my soul to take Dear God, I wonder could you save me Dear God, I wonder could you save me Before I lay me down to sleep I pray the Lord my soul to keep If I should die before I wake I pray the Lord my soul to take Used to be a Christian, it was something missing Sex, weed, liquor, stress, deep in my addiction Feeling plight, out of sight, cause no one would listen Vision getting blurry, they told me not to worry But all I seen was enemies coming in a flurry Covered in my misery, so I gotta hurry Before I'm carried by six or pleading to the jury Praying no one would hurt me while I'm on this journey Before I lay me down to sleep I pray the Lord my soul to keep If I should die before I wake I pray the Lord my soul to take Dear God, I wonder could you save me Dear God, I wonder could you save me
