Lyrics

Why do we question God every time we have a prob?
On our knees all day, praying tryna get that job
But forget him every single time we beat the odds
Then try to find him again soon as our roads cross
I'm no different. I'm angry too, and I got my questions
How the hell you take my brother as an adolescent.
It's hard to fathom cause my camp they never learned a lesson
Ever since I was 12 I suffered deep depression
So it's hard to see the good in it in one direction
I guess this verse is just a tiny part of my confession
I saw my grandfather suffer and then die from cancer
Just wonder why the good people never get proper chances
No disrespect, I know you don't owe me any answers
Been labeled as an addict i always get funny glances
But I'm thankful for my shelter. I don't need the mansions
Forget about promotion. it's really about attraction
Lord, forgive me for being selfish up in my addiction
Didn't care about my daughter all the times I'm missing
Left my wife broken, alone, and to handle business
But you know I'm trying lord you're my only witness
We touch a drug they go berserk, and then get astounded
But we fighting Demons these suckers won't last a round with.
They will judge me and hate me. I see the way I'm hounded
Last time i checked, it's your head that the crown fits
While I'm at it sharing stories, let me just confess
Ever since my brother died, I was a freakin' mess
I bled on people who really deserved the best
Too coward to admit it, and I couldn't get it off my chest
Give us Kiernan Forbes back, give us Ricky Rick
HHP, Mandoza, give us Costa titch
I'm tired of rapists just getting slaps on the wrists
So if it's true God, give us Brenda and just take brickz
Give us Nelson back so we can finally have some order
Cause ever since he's gone, life spans are getting shorter
We lost many lives by drive-by's in this first quarter
What broke me is the victim was a 9 year old daughter
The world is colder. I got a daughter to raise in
How you let this happen, Lord, I thought you really hate sin
Schools are corrupted, students beating up their teachers
Mighty churches stained with a bunch of false preachers
The people who fill up the seats feel mighty to judge
Isn't that your job, God? Aren't we 'sposed to show love?
So confused with religion, don't know where up is
All I know is you were there when tears filled up buckets.
We all got issues, I ain't ashamed of mine.
Last time I checked, it's your son who's the one who shines.
I know they say it all happens all in your time
But Lord, we need the blessings now, not the year with four nines
Teach us to interpret the word and not just recite it
At 6 years, I remember getting up for church excited
And now I'm lost, my secrets spilled by the one I confide in.
It be the same ones who say they got your back that bite it
Lord, forgive me for ever questioning your judgment
But everyone I talk to about forgiveness just change the subject
I guess I wrote this song cause I'm really upset
Thank you for healing my mind. I woulda had a cut neck
Ever since my baby girl, I've been afraid of death
I dedicate the good in me with every single breath
Remove me from these grips and just take away the hex
Let me worry bout today, cause only you know what's coming next.
So dear Lord, please give us our daily bread.
And help everyone forgive me for the dirt said
Even if I'm gone first, I could never see my daughter dead.
So when it's her time, Lord rather take me twice instead
I tried to do it by myself. It just never work.
Speaking to you, I know I could use better words.
All I'm tryna do is for us to get on better terms.
But I know it ain't your fault it's the devil's work.
