Pray for me, for my soul is lost
I grew up the wrong way my Lord
Now I'm sitting thinking...
Was it worth the cost?

I pulled the trigger
Because in my heart I had no tears
When you from the ghetto
You have to understand the consequence
Of having fear.

You built this monster
So I finally took control
I know all odds are against me
But with these cards...
I will never fold.

They called me a thug
Because of the way I had to live.
I don't regret nothing in my life
I am proud of the dirt I once did.

But I guess death had his plans.
When he took my brother away from me
I pushed away Your hands.
Was I born for this madness?
Or is it another trial of being a man?

I blaze because it makes me feel like I'm free.
It takes my mind to the Heavens
Places I thought I never be.
When I look in the mirror now
I don't see the reflection of me.

Am I dead?
Or have I just lost my mind?
I tried to be a better person after I did my time.
But now I sit here plotting...
I'm ready to take back what's mine.
