Waasikeso - Lord Forgive Us

Everyday before I sleep I got to say my prayers
Drive byes right down the street my nigga we was there
Stand up can't show you weak was taught to hide my tears
I sin but ask to keep my soul above my fears
I pray the lord forgive us
I pray the lord forgive us
I pray the lord forgive us
I pray the lord forgive us yea yea
Deep down heart it's pure but I still got to right my wrongs
Evils lurking after me but I can't bring them home
I pray the lord forgive us
I pray the lord forgive us
I pray the lord forgive us
I pray the lord forgive us yea
Deep down heart it's pure but I still got to right my wrongs
Evils lurking after me but i can't bring them home
I pray to the Lord
I wanted Christian Dior
I had to run up a score again
Getting harder to ignore again
I had to get it some more
Like what is he doing this for
Purple hearted I done came from the war
Dearly departed you should never start it
I'm tryin my hardest that's why I'm an artist
And I
I got to look to da sky
I got to get me a piece of da pie
Ain't no reason that I shouldn't see it
Cause baby I feel it and I couldn't lie
No
I had to make it on my
Own
You know what it is
I had to handle my biz
And she call me pappy she having my kids
I put no bitch on my wish list
Wrist water I'm lit as shit
Wear a mask cuz I'm sick of bitches
Twelve came cuz we jumping fences
Drip flash look good in pictures
Big bag and I got to spend it
Long cash its never ending
Lord I ask if I'm forgiven yea yea
Everyday before I sleep I got to say my prayers
Drive byes right down the street my nigga we was there
Stand up can't show you weak was taught to hide my tears
I sin but ask to keep my soul above my fears
I pray the lord forgive us
I pray the lord forgive us
I pray the lord forgive us
I pray the lord forgive us yea yea
Deep down heart it's pure but I still got to right my wrongs
Evils lurking after me but i can't bring them home
Had a vision it came to me
I remember I saw a man slumped in the car
And I knew he was dead it was clear to me
That provided a moment of clarity
If we don't make it out it's a penalty
And I cannot let go of my memories
Got a pain that has lasted us centuries
And we didn't have options
Niggaz couldn't bask so we robbing
See the lights flash heart throbbing
Momma said we born with a target
Spend our whole life tryna dodge it
Some find a way most lost it
Had to make bread but it cost them
Have you ever had tears run like a faucet
Then see it drain in the sink to the bottom
Real bodies down ain't nobody play possum nigga
Mentally I'm in a whole different space
When I spit off these verses the realest relate
Most of my people provide off a grain
We go turn that to flour and make us a cake
Man in the mirror I looked in his face
And I see it's some demons he still got to face
Weight of the city I carry with grace
Don't tell me it's luck when it's fate
I pray the lord forgive us
I pray the lord forgive us
I pray the lord forgive us
I pray the lord forgive us yea yea
Deep down heart it's pure but I still got to right my wrongs
Evils lurking after me but I can't bring them home
