Girl, Me and the Lods been friends for a mighty long time |
|
(such a mighty long time, such a mighty long time) |
|
And girl, the thought of leavin' you has never crossed my mind |
|
(Well oh oh..) |
|
Up in the street and misguided never payed attention |
|
So I got my soul devine, player's soul decided |
|
to let my soul confide with the lights of him |
|
Who the father, my bread and my water |
|
I never bought a cue and into this (?) |
|
Down in my world are you going let you hypocrits |
|
It'll take your life to be a Christian man |
|
I hope you learn, everything else |
|
Is in vein so you're bound to burn |
|
Gonna break your bone |
|
I'm in a war don't let this life game over-rule |
|
Trying take control of you |
|
That's all the devil do |
|
God was in Jesus, God is in us |
|
But God ain't in the barrel of that pistol that you bust |
|
You can play this game wrong, you gotta take it how it goes, |
|
Is there ever a feeling for living if the body's gone |
|
I never understood why what can make a man cry, |
|
It can make a man strong when nobody's on his side |
|
Girl, (girl) Me and the Lords been friends for a mighty long time |
|
(such a mighty long time, such a mighty long time) |
|
And girl, the thought of leavin' you has never crossed my mind |
|
(Never crossed my mind, never crossed my mind, oooh) |
|
(Well oh oh..) |
|
Back and forth, night and day, you repeat the same scene |
|
Standing at the pool a bit, time to repent again |
|
Mostly men have a gun just put that down on circle purpose |
|
When the poo of the world, got me standin by the circle |
|
Agitate you, yes it does, this is what you though was love |
|
Only name, same to be lust, mixed emotions make you wanna bust |
|
Mamma tryin, children cryin, dad outta work, welfare lying |
|
Prejudice, always see, the bottom of the barrel |
|
Falling down on my knees, heavenly father, here we go on knowing |
|
That we get to heaven, there's gonna be some open arms, |
|
Judgment was man-made, not a [..], and this I recorded, |
|
But I didn't live the party, but I thank that my heart beat, |
|
Gotta make me, oh sure Jesus I don't know if there's a hell, |
|
But I know I've whitnessed hell here, all I do is dwell here |
|
Trying not to trail here, saying too much will get you knocked off or locked up in jail here |
|
Tell me do you smell fear, knowing that we so near, |
|
Trying to take the voices of the truth, out the youth ear, |
|
And if you late a time frame, you play all kind of mind games, |
|
I ain't put my life on the line for a damn thing |
|
