Prayin'

Told them I stopped playin' around now I'm prayin Told them I stopped playin' around now I'm prayin "Lord please come save him from himself until he knows how to play it" That boy there need help The tears they done fell Now he's just some shell A shadow of himself You'll see I'm done playin around now I'm prayin You'll see I'm done playin around now I'm prayin "Lord please come save him from himself until he knows how to play it" Well, that's a deep subject, word to Mother D My top goal to live life comfortably Stay prepped if they wanna come for me Posted at the Doubletree, could write a book on hustlin Peepin through the peephole, collectin from the people A lot of traffic like it's Heathrow In the pockets of my peacoat Held fire when it be cold For life I had a cheat code The signs, I didn't heed those The lessons poked me like some needles When I got the word I went out and got a shirt To rock it at his trial, it said "Free 'Bro'" I told him stop playin around now I'm prayin I told him stop playin around now I'm prayin "Lord please come save him from himself until he knows how to play it" The game is so dangerous Hope Grandmomma is prayin I'm on my knees everyday and Thankin the Lord cause I wouldn't have saved me I don't think I'm worth it My thoughts are always dirty Knockin on the door of 30 I should be in a different place But I made some dumb mistakes Can't wish, wish my life away But sometimes I wish I could But "What's a wish but a dream in a ditch ?" Two beings on my shoulders talkin One of them told me this The other one said "Just hold your head cause He hears all prayers" I pray I'm done playin around this I'm prayin I pray I'm done playin around now I'm prayin "Lord please come save him from himself until he knows how to play it"
