Word
Uhuh they tried to remove me from the equation huh
Like I aint the common denominator or something
Huh word. I'm still here though
Word to my Motha that prayed for me
When times got tough you was there for me
Word to my Father that prayed for me
When times got tough you was there for me
Word to my sistas that prayed for me
When times got tough you was there for me
Word to the people that prayed for me
When times got tough you was there for me
Death is just one step away any changes in my pace and I could be gone today
And Im thankful God even though I went astray
Cuz I need you watching me at night while I lay
Death is just one step away any changes in my pace and I could be gone today
And Im thankful God even though I went astray
Cuz I need you watching me at night while I lay
I threw hands with father time
That's how I punched the clock
Thank God my parents prayed I'd make it off the block
And only time will tell when my time will stop
Through the persistence of memory I earned my spot
Lend me ya ear like Van Gogh
Im back with Sal Dali
True fans know
This aint just another album
I outlined the outcome
Income and den some
Anyone can get some
I worked too hard to let you fools have a morsel
Don't let the smooth taste full you cuz Im actin cordial
I'm seeing things from the Lord's view
I decrease as He increase
Now I'm making Forbes moves
Through morbid views
I gained fortitude
And when I hit rock bottom
I just asked what the Lord would do
I earned favor from my Mom's prayers
Leveled up in the game and ran it back like Gayle Sayers
Word to my Motha that prayed for me
When times got tough you was there for me
Word to my Father that prayed for me
When times got tough you was there for me
Word to my sistas that prayed for me
When times got tough you was there for me
Word to the people that prayed for me
When times got tough you was there for me
Death is just one step away any changes in my pace and I could be gone today
And Im thankful God even though I went astray
Cuz I need you watching me at night while I lay
Death is just one step away any changes in my pace and I could be gone today
And Im thankful God even though I went astray
Cuz I need you watching me at night while I lay
I'm taking back what the Devil stole
Restoration for the soul
God's got my back
I need a spot for this heavy load
The weight of the world on my shoulders
I'm a lot older
Greys in my sideburns lookin' like Doctor Jay
Full court press
Sit back and watch me operate
Told the devil not today
He always got a lot to say
Words can't hurt me
Only sticks and stones
They throwing shots at the King but they missed the throne
I thank God for his many blessings
I was suicidal writing songs to Evanescence
I was tired of being here
Hindsight is 20/20
I can see it clear
Man, you ever sit back and recollect
All the times that you tolerated disrespect
That's the worse form of self-hate.
I learned my worth a lil late
Its all in Gods timing but the devil tried to seal my fate
Like I aint the common denominator or something
Huh word. I'm still here though
Word to my Motha that prayed for me
When times got tough you was there for me
Word to my Father that prayed for me
When times got tough you was there for me
Word to my sistas that prayed for me
When times got tough you was there for me
Word to the people that prayed for me
When times got tough you was there for me
Death is just one step away any changes in my pace and I could be gone today
And Im thankful God even though I went astray
Cuz I need you watching me at night while I lay
Death is just one step away any changes in my pace and I could be gone today
And Im thankful God even though I went astray
