3AM In NY

(I shot the sheriff)
'Cause when it all falls down, oh-oh
I only got myself, um
I nearly lost myse-'e-'elf
All the loss I felt, I felt

I pray to God I never let these inner demons get me tied out
I won't ever put myself in places I can't climb out
How you wanna hold me close, but still be holdin' doubt?
Bein' a real nigga weighs much more than all that clout

You cannot take my soul, all alone
Prayed alone, mm
Still aligned, I built this on my own
I sensed the jealousy
Can't stop my destiny
I pray my soul's at peace
Lost in these melodies, ah

They wanna see me dead, I'm a martyr
But, we win instead, mm
If we check the score when it's said and done
Then, I'm still ahead, ah-oh
They didn't believe in a miracle, look what God did
Tried to make me fold, but some things just don't bend

You cannot take my soul, all alone
Prayed alone, mm
Still aligned, I built this on my own
I sensed the jealousy
Can't stop my destiny
I pray my soul's at peace
Lost in these melodies, ahh
