I know my mama putting prayers up I fight evil when it shows up I make sure to follow my intuition that feeling that’s in my gut Feel to young to die in that suit I’ve been theorizing my truth I’ve internalized too many choices that shoulda never took root That forbidden fruit made many jams Bag an ounce they check the grams Been linked in no Abraham That smooth use of an epigram I’m killa cam but I save the day List of words that I won’t say This more to me than some rhyme schemes Didn’t like the moves so I changed the play Once in a while save the day Now they gotta meet goals and put 'em in graves Tags on the toe like hunting game Trynna stay low key wanna hide the names Invested in my blessings I done used a couple already I stay prayed up, talk slick imma Clark son like Kelly Nine tails in my belly That power make me a beast New dilemma like Nelly They knocked me off me feet Deliver me from the evil man Preserve me from the violent ones These prayers make a stronger man These prayers conquer any one I walk through these streets they think I’m scared for what Made it all this way no one protected us If I know trouble just like I think I do My guard up I’m ready for whatever comes through I walk through these streets they think I’m scared for what Made it all this way no one protected us If I know trouble just like I think I do My guard up I’m ready for whatever comes through I treated it like life support, I’d pull the plug if had to Bad for me, I don’t know how it slipped the filters it passed through I compromised I fantasized about the life I could live Now I make moves I stick to action about the parts I willingly give I held on for way too long What I felt was way too strong I jotted notes on the pad and my phone In the car in the rain on my way back home I reminisced you could tell so well By the mood that I had when I played my songs I gotta prayer on the shelf for my wife and kids Cause it feels like it won’t be long Now times change rearrange Who’s to blame it’s all the same it’s all a game Chase the fame, chase the loot Chase the bag, chase the life, you only lose Thank God, thank my mother Thank my father for the prayers lifted up On a shelf, I can help When you down, gotta prayer sitting up I walk through these streets they think I’m scared for what Made it all this way no one protected us If I know trouble just like I think I do My guard up I’m ready for whatever comes through I walk through these streets they think I’m scared for what Made it all this way no one protected us If I know trouble just like I think I do My guard up I’m ready for whatever comes through I walk through these streets they think I’m scared for what Made it all this way no one protected us If I know trouble just like I think I do My guard up I’m ready for whatever comes through I walk through these streets they think I’m scared for what Made it all this way no one protected us If I know trouble just like I think I do My guard up I’m ready for whatever comes through
