1 - my soul is so dirty
I've been hustlin' everyday
Now i know that i should pray
But i wonder if he hear what i'd say
I know my momma didn't raise me this way
But i gotta feed my family
If i could just make it through one more day
I could live the right way
Lord, you know it's been 12-15 years i've been in the game
The way i live this life, forgive me, i know it's a shame
But who'd a thought i'd make it this far
From all the brothers and others that i've lost
I know i'm fortunate not to be one of those souls you choose
And i'm sorry for the ones i sent
Down here is to live or die, what was i suppose to do?
You know i wasn't quite ready
For this soul of mine to come before you
Repeat 1
I know i may not have been right but i've been fair
I guess that's why you saw it to keep me here
You must have somethin' better for me
Just give me a sign lord, please show me
Just wanna thank you for the ones you've placed
I pray you watched over them, cuz you watched over me
Until you clean us up lord, like we should be
I know you will eventually
Repeat 1
Please watch over my babies and they mommas, too
Cuz they don't know what they daddy do
But this one thing, i promise you
I won't let my seeds do the same thing, too
Lord, bless my momma, you know how much she means to me
Despite the way i live, i know she still loves me
She's up in church, cryin' and prayin' for me
And i'mma try to see her there on sunday, i said maybe
Repeat 1
