I place my faith I place my faith in you I place my faith I place my faith in you I place my faith I place my faith in you I place my faith I place my faith in you I place my faith I place my faith in you I place my faith I place my faith in you Put in your hands I swear to I ain't never had nothin' And I don't have much to give But if I could make you stand for somethin' Then it make my purpose real Listen here You ain't got nothin' to fear Wipe away all of your tears Make it abundantly clear You way in front of your peers Your only opponent the mirror Look at how I got here, huh Locked inside, but I was out there, huh Boxed my life, no one else cared, huh Now my mind so out there bruh I was down and up With the pounds and cups Sick of scroungin' up All these ounces of An amount that never amount to much And a thousand mountains, crowded above I was feelin' lower than the lowest Loneliness controlled my every motive Only focused on being noticed Notice we could never get a hold of A piece of the pie Wonder if there even a god Wonder if He see through my eyes Wonder if I'll meet him or not or has he been a lie Thought I had the world in my reach Then I had it crumble in my palm I was tryna live like a king I was making moves like a pawn Doors never opened for me Used to tell myself that they was locked Do you see you've always had the key Livin' in your conscious all along I place my faith I place my faith in you I place my faith I place my faith in you I place my faith I place my faith in you I place my faith I place my faith in you Put it in your hands I swear to No church for the wild No rest for the wicked Been servin' awhile Still got the rest of my sentence Heard the sky got too many angels And they've all but filled their section So I've been raising Hell To get to Heaven Call the reverend I need his faith And amazing grace to hug me Need a blessing to give me strength To face this world that judge me Can't nobody feel my pain Now I hardly make an effort This ache inside my heart Need more than a few Excedrin Hope God can read this letter Or at least relay the message Let my life become a mentor Change a kid's intentions Swear I didn't know what intent was My life was lacking wisdom Swear I didn't know what intent was 'Till intent sent me to prison Help me change perspective Give me healthy visions Help me help the helpless Pay me in forgiveness Help me change perspective Give me healthy visions Help me help the helpless And pay me in forgiveness
