lyrics
Dear /Lord .,. It's been a minute since I wrote you
_ I built a tower to heaven, but then it broke, ooo
_ Lord, I hope you still hear me and I know you
do, I'm just bummed cuz we used to be close, true
_ now it's different, what happened to reverence?
_ I admit I been neglecting true repentance
_ I'm defenseless, a mess, and all aloof
a /culprit of the consequence, and living proof
_ I need a job and got a baby on the way
plus I'm /married to her mother, and I'm planning to stay
_ I'll get it right, it might just take a couple tries
_ as long as ain't nobody see through my disguise
_ I'm doing fine just don't look into my lies
/i don't want the truth to catch my homies by surpirse
_ what if they knew I talk to you and hear your voice
when I'm a/wake, oh wait, they might believe that I'm a .,.
_ and that's a no no word, we don't say that
_ I'm bound to give you less than I take back
_ I know I got a long way to go I just
Hope today it's not too late for me soul
_ I know it's long row to hoe
_ gimme a sip of living water, and I'll go!
_ I know I need you father, and I know
that I'm /headed back home where I'll be made whole
I said I wrote the music for you and instead
I /started making rap tracks for me and my friends
went from seeing you then to sneaking weed in my den
Just take a hit of this, honey, and you know we can pretend
_ and act like we love each other tonight
_ until you hit on my friend, and then we fight
_ really now, tell me what this is and I'll
Swish it all away with a lime and a piss
another G-T who's paying for this?
oh the girl in the dress who just hurled on my chest
_ she's kinda cute, but she's upside down
oh /wait, I am? okay I get it now
_ Sorry God, did you want something?
_ I know I got church tomorrow
_ I know I need a shirt to borrow
_ I know I fill your heart with sorrow
_ I know, I said I'll be there
Falling asleep, not bored, just tired
_ I know that message was fire!
now if I could just get the words straight in my head
What was it he said? What did he say?
_ I've been a cheater, you can ask Michelle
_ even my wife knows my story well
_ I've been bad, been wrong, been worse
been a pawn to my anger played the murderous curse
_ I've hit a woman, and I'm sure not proud
shouted at my momma and cussed my pops out
once i helped my homeboy rob this old lady who was
sleeping on her couch while her safe got raided
_ I've been afraid that maybe I'd never make it
Tried to trade the call for a couple scene points
_ I swear I don't think I'd ever seen joints that
/size, poof gone right in front of my eyes
_ I know I never really got high (just low)
_ I know I barely even got by (I know)
_ I know I had a log in my eye just
waiting for the splinter in the next passer by
_ I know you payed the debt that I owed
_ I know you paved the city with gold
_ I know you came and died for my soul
and I know I'm gonna be made whole...
