Jackboy Marley - Let Us Prey
Young nigga young boy
Perfect picture, polaroid
Grew up early, knew my worth and
Watching time just fast forward
Grew up being passed poor
Mama worked her ass for
Much of nothing
Shit was ugly
Beauty wasn't in the budget
See how hustlas stashed more
That shit made me transform
Turned me to a go-getta
Gone to get the doe quicker
Set the table
Grabbed a plate and burnt yourself
Caused others pain until ya hurt yourself
Disloyalty won't earn my help
You'll only eat when there's nothing left
Venturing this world
You'll realize all the shame
So i say, let us pray
Hungry for a gain
We eat through life and the pain
Say my grace
Let us prey
Dealing with dilemmas
Tryna pick out of these women
But not in it for commitment
I am too busy handling business
I noticed if I listened
And start paying more attention
To my senses
Then I would see the signs
Then I wouldn't be the victim of a waste of time
And see just how realistically
These scandalous bitches can be
Only want you for money
And if you got nun then it's all just a dream
The real can be so fabricated
Better spot out the faking
It'll double on the mental aching
I'm a eat through it just double plate me
Venturing this world
You'll realize all the shame
So i say, let us pray
Hungry for a game
We eat through life for gain
Say my grace
Let us prey
Knowledge brings power
Power brings cowards out to the forefront
Claim to be a demon but your demeanor
Has angel features
It's demeaning being
Fraudulent
Said you was my dog n shit
Tried to share my blessing
But you crossed me wanting all of it
How is it that
Niggas always bite the hand that feed em uh
Look like they don't need em nah
Looks can be deceiving aw
This shit treason
From the dust we came so
In the dust i'll leave em all
Keep em lord
Venturing this world
You'll realize all the shame
So i say, let us pray
Hungry for a gain
We eat through life and the pain
Say my grace
Let us prey
Venturing this world
You'll realize all the shame
So i say, let us pray
Hungry for a gain
We eat through life and the pain
Say my grace
Let us prey
