"Lord Listen"
  by GHOST_ROCCO



I知 up early in the morning kuz I hate to sleep
try to pray to U Lord but my faith is weak
another day went by & I知 kloser to my death
so when Im gettin high, I知 holdin my breath
kuz when I exhale I feel a part of my life go
one reason that I知 hustlin day & nite fo
throw on my gang colors, and I tilt my kap
if I die now, its unforgiven & I deal wit that
Life has been good but I commited so many sins
I stayed in the hood & buried so many friends
And for my homies locked up, I shoot em a kite
And it reminds me that I shudnt ruin my life
But all day I致e been out here gettin this cheddar
though I know my life aint gonna get any better
Another day past midnite & I知 back in my bed
Then I say this prayer in the back of my head

LORD LISTEN, i don't kno what U have in store foe me
i jus pray U open Heaven's doors foe me
on tha day i die, will U be klose to me?
i'm drunk & high so it's hard to fokus see
i kno this ain't tha way i'm suppose to be
but i feel like U don't even notise me
are U near me when i wear a rosesary?
when i kall out Yo name, do u kno it's me?
i'm hopin' Your Spirit flows in me
before my foes put sum bullet holes in me
when life's gone, what happens to tha soul in me?
when i die, Lord put tha Holy Ghost in me
plus look over those that mean tha most to me
now show me tha light that i'm suppose to see
Lord listen, i don't kno what U have in store foe me
i jus pray U open Heaven's doors foe me

now I lay down to sleep
I pray to the Lord I survive these streets
And if I die before I get this cake
I pray to the Lord my soul to take.
