A Minute For Your Son Lyrics by DMX

A Minute For Your Son Lyrics

    You got a minute for your son, Father?
    I need to talk I’m so tired of trying to run, Father
    Let’s take a walk I’m so sorry for whut I’ve done, Father
    It ain’t my fault The devil’s been on my back lately He’s like a hawk
    You never give us more than we can handle But it’s gettin hard
    And I’m a strong individual But i need you, God
    A lot of things that I used to I don’t wanna
    Runnin tha streets like i used ta
    I know i’m gonna speak the word for you one day
    Up in the light -- Halleluiah!! -- on Sunday
    I thank you Lord for the blessings that you gave me
    And for my life the blessings taht you have saved me
    and for my wife
    you have carried me `nuff times and that’s the truth
    carried me through the rough times throughout my youth
    and through it that i saw you was still wit me
    i was that one lost sheep and you was comin to get me

    [chorus]
    lord, you got me like..... your luv got me like....
    lord, you got me like.... your luv got me like....
    lord, you got me like.... your luv got me like....
    lord, you got me like.... your luv GOT ME LIKE....

    i’m lookin at life a lil’ different now since you hugged me
    and i always luved my people but now they luv me
    thank you for the luv, Lord, we praise ya
    Jacob, ascendents, from africa to asia
    bleeding the blood of Christ over our life
    Wrong or right just help us make it through the night
    And we’ll shout your name in times of need
    and times of joy and when we bleed
    and when we are overcome with grief
    you don’t have to tell me twice; i’ma take heed
    and because of whut you’ve given me, i know you’ll deliver me
    and i won’t drown no matter how deep the river be
    you are the strength i never knew i had
    kept my heart true when they told me you was bad
    all praises due to you that’s why i had to dedicate sumthin new to ya
    thank you lord

    [chorus]

    Uhhh i never knew a luv like this before
    messin with the Thug Life, i missed it all
    open up the doors and let me in
    i’m done wit the cards so let’s begin
    prayers that you give to me, i give to them
    life is a blessing now you got me smiling
    from inside of my heart when inside it was dark
    and it doesn’t rain any more only sunshine
    no pain anymore.... i really luv mine
    you wash away the tears with the fears
    i’m happier than i’ve ever been in my life, in thirty years
    you know that
    one day i’ll speak the word
    you know that!
    when i do, i will be hear
    you know that!
    you have me a permanenet smile
    and you know this, Father, cuz i’m ur child!!
