Lay Me Down

Boosie Bad Ass Nigga on some real shit
from a real nigga to a real nigga

I Lost My niggas in dese streets to dat gansta Lean
pictures make it worse listen to dis sick ass verse from bad ass
spit the same game to hoe's like da same clothes
money bring power so we like da bankroll
In my bed at night i cock and sit it next the lamp
thinkin bout all my trill niggas we lost to Ta champ
tears running down my momma eyes and it's the truth
plenty nights yo son try but ma im boosie boo
two dead in broad day light on da southside curb
you aint heard you in danger if you got dem birds
plus my grandma lost her life mama house in flames
uncle still drinking like the game dont change
I cant sleep at night man dese nightmares dey eat me up
surley i been laid off had to hit my knees bruh
help me lord jeesus when im on my way home
keep dem devils off my back and keep me strapped with dat chrome.

Now I lay me down ta sleep (down ta sleep)
I pray ta lord my soul ta keep (soul ta keep)
if I should die before I wake (before i wake)
I pray ta lord my soul to take (soul to take)

Now I lay me down ta sleep (down ta sleep)
I pray ta lord my soul ta keep (soul ta keep)
if I should die before I wake (before i wake)
I pray ta lord my soul to take (soul to take)

Sometimes i wish i can change the world
i probably could but aint no tellin if i would
cause im straight up out dha hood
Knowin dat a niggah should
my mama always taught me right from wrong
and when you die baby life goes on
dey say what goes around gotta come around
and when it comes down to dha come down only gods gone hold ya down
dats why when you see me by lonely and I ride by my self
all my real niggas gone i only got a few left
lord forgive me fo all my sins cus god knows all dha wrongIi did
Im tryna shake back dats why i smoke sack from sack
trynna reach god bhut dha devil on my back
the judge trynna give my big dog nim life
fo some bullshit you know dat shit aint right
I pray every night so I can sleep right
cus in the day time dawg I live da street light

Now I lay me down ta sleep (down ta sleep)
I pray ta lord my soul ta keep (soul ta keep)
if iIshould die before I wake (before i wake)
I pray ta lord my soul to take (soul to take)

Now I lay me down ta sleep (down ta sleep)

Done did good done did dirt done stayed hood dha whole way
I felt some like a fone humma i aint feel coming not dat day
in DAT way you can trust niggas or learn fast how to say fuck niggas
my chest hurtin my vest hurtin my heart hurtin and i fuck whidd em
he raised me grew up whidd em taught me some of dis street shit
kinda nigga you aint want beef whidd kindah made me wonda how dha hell he slip
dat just goes to show me shit none of us niggas untouchable
I ride with sumthin everywhere I go, will I live to see 30 dats questionable
I told god times hard gotta know how to spit dese rhymes hard
had to bust heads to get dat bread sometimes it can bleed or let it scar.
live my life like fuck tommorow no i aint seein big hump tomah
waitin to blaze me a blunt tomah den lay around and get stomped tomah
try ta play me like a punk tomah have yo ass in the trunk tomah
leave dha ice to my brotha befoe i got ta my heart
leave tha house cars ta my lil booi

Now I lay me down ta sleep (down ta sleep)
I pray ta lord my soul ta keep (soul ta keep)

I pray ta lord my soul to take (soul to take)
