Understand (feat. El Primero Eski)

Cryin out to God, I cant be actin' like I never need em'
My momma layin on the floor she aint breathin'
I was s'posed to see her we made plans the other weekend
Take away the pillar the foundation start to weaken
Crumble down the weed and pour the liquor cause my life was hard
Gave the evil eye to anybody who come preachin' God
I was twenty three and I had dreams of only ballin' hard
When I awoke the dream would disappear like distance in a fog
True and livin' God if he's so real why I
Gotta swipe the metro as I'm eyein' new wheels
Why I always gotta suffer when I try to do it right too
Young to understand the correlation of Christ
This life is temporary yeah we only passin' through
Momentary thorns upon his head because of passion fruit
I ain't tryna glorify the flesh I'm only askin' you if
Jesus brought you out the storm wouldn't you go help a few

When I was young I couldn't understand
How is all this pain supposed to mold me to a man
When I was young I couldn't understand
How is all this pain supposed to mold me to a man
God I always knew you had a plan
Help me to believe even when things are goin' grim
God I always knew you had a plan
Help me to believe even when things are goin' grim

I never worry cause God got me I let it pass
All the negativity, all the drama that made me mad
In the spur of the moment I couldn't understand
Til I started prayin', I kept sayin' to make a path
I see the actions and read em' clearly like road signs
Good things happen cause God was there throughout the whole time
I don't wanna die from lack of knowledge
Too much pleasure and temptation is reckless so we gotta stop it
I hope the Lord blesses everybody
I know my flaws can be very sloppy
I got a gift not a major hobby
I got a track featuring with Manny
The Lord will bless me like he blessed him one day with a family
When I was young I couldn't understand
How is all this pain supposed to mold me to a man
How am I supposed to challenge all the trials in the world
All I gotta do is trust in God and hold him to his word

When I was young I couldn't understand
How is all this pain supposed to mold me to a man
When I was young I couldn't understand
How is all this pain supposed to mold me to a man
God I always knew you had a plan
Help me to believe even when things are goin' grim
God I always knew you had a plan
Help me to believe even when things are goin' grim
