Wash My Sins Away
It's so hard to stand up straight when niggas knock you down
They told me I wouldn't make it had to fake it just to get around
Daddy been a hoe
He didn't show me how to hold my own
My mother taught me different
When she gone I know I'm all alone
Uncle always said to me that I was worth it
He said if niggas don't respect your heart they don't deserve it
I blame myself for all my problems cause I caused my hurting
Ten years ago I swear to God I was a different person
I put my pain all in my songs they tell me I'm too deep
It's hard for me to love somebody cause they quick to leave
It's hard for me to trust a soul cause they not for keeps
They tried to leave me in a back not knowing I would leap
I seen the top I know it's mine and it's my time to grind
My mama told me to shine bright and leave these niggas blind
I prayed to God while on my knees I swear it had me crying
I asked if he could guide me right because I'm really trying
Wash my sins away dear Lord wash my sins away
Wash my sins away dear Lord wash my sins away
Wash my sins away dear Lord wash my sins away
Wash my sins away dear Lord
Didn't have nobody in my corner I had to accept it
Ain't no bad blood between us that shit was a lesson
Seen the way that I been moving they didn't expect it
I thank God for this gif he gave me a blessing
Wash my sins away dear Lord wash my sins away
Wash my sins away dear Lord wash my sins away
Wash my sins away dear Lord wash my sins away
Wash my sins away dear Lord
Ain't no bad blood between us that shit was a lesson
Seen the way that I been moving they didn't expect it
I thank God for this gift he gave me a blessing
They expect to see me down they don't want me up
They thinking that I'm moving weak but Katy made me tough
Skipping school thinking that I knew my way around
All the love I had for them I swear is in that lost and found
Don't tell me that you understand me you weren't in my place
They quit to talk that shit behind me never in my face
Rapping been a gift almost like it was my escape
These niggas swear they doing something but can't step to my plate
I hear they trying to give me lectures on my strategy
Like how y'all talking down and then y'all say y'all proud of me
And just because we blood that don't make you my family
You just a human out here breathing who claim they kin to me
I don't want none of y'all praises y'all can go and keep em'
Cause y'all get greedy for that money y'all get real tempted
I had to ask my fucking self who the best that did it
I heard you hoes speaking down but want the life I'm living
And how you hoes selling body and not making a cent
And why y'all chasing after niggas who act more like a bitch
This is one of them situations I just cannot fix
This is where I shrug my shoulders and continue to win
On my life I ain't gon' let up when I get my shot
They thinking that this shit is new lil' bitch I been hot
And when I cross the finish line that don't mean I stop
That's just a fucking guarantee that I'ma never flop
Wash my sins away dear Lord wash my sins away
Wash my sins away dear Lord wash my sins away
Wash my sins away dear Lord wash my sins away
Wash my sins away dear Lord
It ain't no bad blood between us, that shit was a lesson
Seen the way that I been moving, they didn't expect it
I thank God for this gift, he gave me a blessing
They told me I wouldn't make it had to fake it just to get around
Daddy been a hoe
He didn't show me how to hold my own

Wash my sins away dear Lord wash my sins away
Wash my sins away dear Lord wash my sins away
