Lyrics

Dear God, I wonder can you save me? Illuminati want my mind, soul, and my body Dear God, I wonder can you save me? Secret society, tryna keep they eye on me Dear God, I wonder can you save me? Illuminati want my mind, soul, and my body Dear God, I wonder can you save me? I can't die, I can't die, I can't die This shit is wicked on these mean streets None of my friends speak We're all trying to win, but then again Maybe it's for the best though 'Cause when they're saying too much You know they're trying to get you touched Whoever said illegal was the easy way out Couldn't understand the mechanics And the workings of the underworld, granted Nine-to-five is how to survive, I ain't trying to survive I'm tryna live it to the limit and love it a lot Life ills, poison my body I used to say, fuck mic skills I never prayed to God, I prayed to Gotti That's right it's wicked, that's life I live it Ain't askin' for forgiveness for my sins, ends I break bread with the late heads Pickin' their brains for angles on On all the evils that the game'll do It gets dangerous, money and power is changin' us And now we're lethal, infected with D'Evils Dear God, I wonder can you save me? Illuminati want my mind, soul, and my body Dear God, I wonder can you save me? Secret society, tryna keep they eye on me Dear God, I wonder can you save me? Illuminati want my mind, soul, and my body Dear God, I wonder can you save me? I can't die, I can't die, I can't die We used to fight for building blocks Now we fight for blocks with buildings that make a killin' The closest of friends when we first started But grew apart as the money grew, and soon grew black-hearted Thinkin' back when we first learned to use rubbers He never learned so in turn I'm kidnappin' his baby's mother My hand around her collar, feedin' her cheese She said the taste of dollars was shitty so I fed her fifties About his whereabouts I wasn't convinced I kept feeding her money 'til her shit started to make sense Who could ever forsee? We used to stay up all night at slumber parties Now I'm tryna rock his bitch to sleep All the years we were real close Now I see his fears through her tears Know she wishin' we were still close Don't cry, it is to be In time, I'll take away your miseries And make it mine, D'Evils Dear God, I wonder can you save me? Illuminati want my mind, soul, and my body Dear God, I wonder can you save me? Secret society, tryna keep they eye on me Dear God, I wonder can you save me? Illuminati want my mind, soul, and my body Dear God, I wonder can you save me? I can't die, I can't die, I can't die My flesh, no nigga could test My soul is possessed by D'Evils In the form of diamonds and Lexuses The Exorcist, got me doing sticks, like Homie You don't know me, but the whole world owe me, strip Was thought to be a pleasant guy all my fuckin' life So now I'm down for whatever, ain't nothin' nice Throughout my junior high years it was all friendly But now this higher learning got the Remy in me Liquors invaded my kidneys Got me ready to lick off, mama forgive me I can't be held accountable, D'Evils beating me down, boo Got me runnin' with guys, makin' G's, tellin' lies that sound true Come test me, I never cower For the love of money, son, I'm givin' lead showers Stop screamin', you know the demon said it's best to die And even if Jehovah witness, bet he'll never testify, D'Evils Dear God, I wonder can you save me? I can't die, I can't die, I can't die
