"Err'day"
  by Vinyl


Err'day I pray to thine heavens
that we aint neva gotta go thru anotha 9/11
muhfuccaz slammin planes into towers
while it burst into flames from actions of them cowards
ponderin on all the bodiez flamez devoured

Err'day I pray for my hood
that a gang war don't break out, cuz i know that it could
its fucced up we bangin for colorz instead of bangin tha hood
red and blue can get cake together
Hell they should be bout they cheddar

Err'day I pray for tha set
that when they bang out they don't get wet
that we can go hangout without needin a vest
and can make it home and be safe while we gettin our rest
cuz stray bullets know no name except death

Err'day I pray for my family
the one that raised me, plus when i become a daddy
so we can all be plush, coastin on 485 in a caddy
and that we dont break apart when we fall out badly
cuz it'd break my heart to be feudin wit my own cuzzin's mammy

Err'day I say a prayer for momma
that her heart stay calm thru all of the drama
i'm really tryina get caked up, so you can be laced up
to where you can retire without takin a paycut
its nuthin, just reparations for the way you raised us

Err'day I keep my popz on my mind
like i hope this nicca close this deal, look at the way he grind
and how he say whatz on his mind without wastin his time
i still say a prayer, but he dont need it, he'll be fine
cuz he got a crazy mental, guess thats where i get mine

Err'day i'm thankin my brothers
for puttin me up on the music game, and tryina keep me from the hustle
i know i took the wrong path, did dumb things, but hell it gave me muscle
I know y'all wanted betta for me, i got it dawg, wont be long b4 im out tha struggle
Jus keep doin ya thing, fucc ya problems, you gon come thru

Err'day I say i luv ya to my wifey
stayin strong thru bullshit, right there beside me
you took care of me when i was sicc and couldn't barely breathe
i know i talk shit, but you know you my queen
hell, i promise you baby, yo finger gon get a ring

Well I guess i should prolly say a prayer for me
cuz err'day i was out there strugglin to eat
but thank God i got a hustle and it aint nuthin to me
by any means necessary, cuz aint nothin for free
just in case I don't make it bacc home, lets say a prayer for me!!!
