Dear Lord

Dear Lord
Dear Lord I'm asking for forgiveness
I know I don't deserve and I know I keep sinning
Dear Lord

I just hit the switch now they see the glow
Bounced back from the dirt like a 6-4
I was going no where fast
Holes in my pockets like Walmart bags
I know it was karma for the things I did
Put a stop to it then I started making dividends
God was looking out for a n!!$@
And I know I don't deserve it when he vouch for a n!!$@ but
Blessings keep rolling in
My cup runneth over doors open like a broken hinge
Suicide doors so we going up
Use to be young wild and dumb now we growing up
All we wanted was a lil' taste of heaven
So we entertained all the nonsense like Cedric
Remember when they said that we wouldn't be nothing
Now they tryna gas us up like a 7 11

Dear Lord, I'm asking for forgiveness
I know I don't deserve and I know I keep sinning
I'm tryna do better but
I'm tryna do better
Dear Lord, I'm asking for forgiveness
I know I don't deserve and I know I keep sinning
I'm tryna do better Lord I know you see the effort
I been putting in work but I know it's not finished

If it's 'bout a check I'm with it
Gotta keep it legal though cause I don't play with piglets
And lately they done had a red target on the back
Of every black man like they on Pinterest tryna pin it
So everyday we out here ducking prison
Legal or illegal while we tryna make a living
But imma go and get it like a soldier on a mission
Even in my darker days I could still see the vision
Rules in the game still the same I'm winning
Like Neo in the matrix I don't break it I bend it
Cash rules everything tell em keep printing
I ain't made yet but I ain't been broke in a minute
Shout to the dawgs in the kennel
I pray u taste freedom never get another sentence
Lord please forgive us for just doing what we know
When the odds stack against us in this real cold world

Dear Lord, I'm asking for forgiveness
I know I don't deserve and I know I keep sinning
I'm tryna do better but
I'm tryna do better
Dear Lord, I'm asking for forgiveness
I know I don't deserve and I know I keep sinning
I'm tryna do better Lord I know you see the effort
I been putting in work but I know it's not finished

Our father
Who art in heaven
Hallowed be
Thy holy name
Thy kingdom
Thy will be done
On earth
As it is in heaven
Give us this day
Our daily bread
And forgive us for trespasses
As we forgive
All of those
Who would trespass
Against us
Lead us not
Into temptation
But deliver us
From the evil one
For thine is kingdom, the power, the glory forevermore
Amen
