Lost

(Oh no), ya hear me
(Hmm), you tell the future
(Yeah, come on)
Or maybe your future blank (oh-oh)
Parental advisory (ooh), watch this (hmm, yeah)

You thinking that you're grown now
You got your eyes set on the street
Somehow you think that you can stand on your feet
No job, no house, no car
Tell me how can you acquire these things

I know just what you're thinking
The road you wanna take will leave you sinking
You wanna roll around with your crew
Tow drunks, gang bangs, steal cars
Doing all of these horrible things

Now tell me how you were misled so easily
When you was raised better by your family
You tryna be something that you ain't meant to be
Your mamma's on her knees, pray to God every night
'Cause she knows that you're

Lost in the still of the night
Ain't no need to lose sight
She'll be holding the light, oh yeah
I'm lost in the still of the night
Ain't no need to lose sight
She'll be holding the light
(Y'all hear me now, watch this)

See son, it's never too late
The effort to correct is never too great
A family should stick together
One blood, one love, one heart
Open arms, welcome you at the gate

You thinking that I'm crazy
I see through all them, see your visions hazy
I'm fired up with the premonitions
Black suits, long faces, sad words
Slow singing at the side of your grave

Now tell me how you were misled so easily
When you was raised better by your family
You tryna be something that you ain't meant to be
Your mamma's on her knees, pray to God every night
'Cause she knows that you're

Lost in the still of the night
Ain't no need to lose sight
She'll be holding the light
(Waitin' there at the end of the tunnel)
Lost in the still of the night (of the night)
Ain't no need to lose sight (oh, no)
She'll be holding the light (hey)

Whenever I'm low (uh)
All I need to know (yeah, you right to know)
Is that you're there for me (oh, yeah), you're down for me
My strength when I'm weak
Whenever I'm low (uh)
All I need to know
Is that you're there for me, you're down for me
My strength when I'm weak

I'm lost in the still of the night
Ain't no need to lose sight
She'll be holding the light
(Waitin' there at the end of the tunnel)
Lost in the still of the night
Ain't no need to lose sight
She'll be holding the light
(Waitin' there at the end of the tunnel)

Lost in the still of the night (I'm lost)
Ain't no need to lose sight (oh, no)
She'll be holding the light (ooh, yeah)
Lost in the still of the night
Ain't no need to lose sight
She'll be holding the light
