Bless You, Lord

Keep me in a safe place, lead me when I feel far away

Bless You, Lord

When I don't know where, when I don't know where to turn

Bless You, Lord

I pray and I pray, faithfully calling right out

Bless You, Lord

And when I go down

Bless You, Lord

Uh, I'm blessed, I know it

Could've went left, I know it

I saw my brother, he laying there lifeless

Only God know where he going

Life is a gamble, I'm learning to dice it

You gon' get cut up however you slice it

Talk to the Lord and He told me that

It's alright

I still walk in the dark, I'm a risk taker

See my brother go down over big faces

Lawyers hitting my phone over big cases

Gave my life to the dark, I was nocturnal

Momma said, "Change," I was not turning

So full of trauma, it's not funny

It's some things that I done, I cannot stomach

It's alright

Yeah, it's not accidental

Texas to Chi-Town, I hopped in that rental

O-Block to K-Town, I wrote instrumentals

I'm walking through blocks while they clutching they pistols

Me and my lady was ducking in Memphis

Shootouts and murders, we prayed through the trenches

They think I do this to sell my lil' tickets

They wasn't 'round when we went on them missions

Walking through prisons, I give them life even after the sentence

I don't want money, just pay me attention

Already loved, what's a like or a mention?

I don't play games, I just play my position

Been in San Quentin, I walk the yard out in Sterling by Denver

Filled with the Spirit, I'm praying with killers

I told them I know 'bout a God who'll forgive them

I got the joy of the Lord in my system

I lost my cousin but still got his memories

They took his life but they can't take his spirit

I've been through too much to be worried 'bout a critic

I know He love me in spite of my sinning

I'm not independent, I'm leaning on wisdom

I need intervention, I'm pleading the fifth

'Cause these demons be snitching like Judas, sing with me

Bless You Lord

I pray and I pray, faithfully calling right out

Bless You Lord

Uh, I'm blessed, I know it

Could've went left, I know it

I saw my brother, he laying there lifeless

Only God know where he going

Life is a gamble, I'm learning to dice it

You gon' get cut up however you slice it

Talk to the Lord and He told me that

It's alright

I still walk in the dark, I'm a risk taker

See my brother go down over big faces

Lawyers hitting my phone over big cases

Gave my life to the dark, I was nocturnal

Momma said, "Change," I was not turning

So full of trauma, it's not funny

It's some things that I done, I cannot stomach

It's alright

It's some things that I did that the devil said, "Boopie, you cannot come back from it"

I'm supposed to be feeling the hurt, that's what I deserve, instead He came back for me

Yeah, my mama, she kept us in church, but it was too easy to end up with crack money

So I started to empty my Apple computer to rap while my cousin was MAC dumping

Got it jumping like you seen a rat running through the crib

He paid for my sin and was paying the bills

I wasn't signed to no label when I kept on asking God to make me a deal

Can't be big-headed, The King gave His life for a price that I couldn't afford, you hear me?

Come to my church on a Sunday, I'm setting up chairs and wrapping up cords, you hear me?

Keep me in Your presence, don't let this fame get me, and I barter my heart of a martyr

I won a Dove with my brother, but it won't compare to me dipping lil' bro in that water

Bless You, Lord

Keep me in a safe place, lead me when I feel far away

Bless You, Lord

When I don't know where, when I don't know where to turn

Bless You, Lord, bless You, Lord

Keep me in a safe place, lead me when I feel far away

Bless You, Lord

When I don't know where, when I don't know where to turn

Bless You, Lord
