Lyrics

Don't think because my black skin real that I don't feel
Yeah I pray for change but I gotta start with myself
I gotta start with my health then calculate up my wealth
In that order, if you believe in salvation then he'll be back for you
I'm talking holiness, what do I believe? My destiny I know got a holding it
Cause I remember killing off my brain, putting holes in it
Right now I'm switching lanes, avoid the crash, I gotta roll with it
Yeah, I'm young but I ain't dumb so I ain't holding it
Your pistol or your packs, remember days I had no luck with it
My mama used to tell me, young man don't **** with it
Yeah we born sober but somehow we fall in love with it
The drugs, money and them women with the plugs
Still remember times when I was three days up, that's what it was
Now I'm in the courtroom cause I gotta face the judge
That's one of the scariest feelings in the world
Cause you never know what's gon' happen
So you gotta pray
Life a death decision, think about it when you make it
Yeah I got some homies in the grave, that's heartbreaking
Sometimes I wanna cry because my heart still aching
And then I really cry because I know the Lord saved me
Yeah, going through these trials and tribulations
Dirty dancing with the devil, you can call me Patrick Swayze
Yeah, man I know the Lord and he amazing
He saved me from myself when I ain't really had no patience
Like who are we to judge? I be thinking about it daily
Imagine if your homeless on the street switching places
You better show grace, we all rats in the races
Try and keep up with the Joneses, we losing paces
Gotta put it down sometimes, you don't know what you drinking
Gotta slow it down at times, you don't know what you thinking
I just heard a sound from that old head, yeah he was preaching
I just said a prayer, yeah my arms they had me reaching
You know I was, I was going through some things that uh
That I thought I wouldn't survive but um
That's why I know God is good, and um
Like they say prayer changes things, you know
I just kept on praying and um
Look, I just kept my head up in them times when it felt that hard
Had so many sinful ways I had to fall back, Lord
Thinking about my life, you know I prayed through them bad parts
Trauma with the family, when you black you know you can't avoid
We don't talk about it, see the dirt, we sweep it in the yard
That's hate, not love, man I pray you get it out your heart
Lost a lot of loved ones on this road, you can't replace them, boy
Death is the only thing promised, ain't no mistaking, boy
I can see the light tunnel vision, you know I wait for it
I'm just trying to live out my days closer unto the Lord
Yeah, I do a dance and I pray singing my favorite part
Yeah
Ain't got too much left to say but um
Let it ride out
