Imagine steppin out the house knowing you’re alone Most of the world hoping you don’t even make it home You done seen more trauma than the army Funeral after funeral burying all ya homies All of this pain and you can’t figure how to open up Cause your whole life they steady told you to suck it up Your favorite rapper told the world he pop pills So you on thinking if you do it that’s the remedy to heal Now its Bottle after bottle pills on the shelf So when you come down you ain’t feeling like yourself The people that’s around you seeing how far fell They won’t help cause seeing you fail made them feel better bout they self In this world pay attention to the people You keep around they’ll do whatever for their ego Just act ask Rico he took his boy under For some bricks he was using just to try to save his brother Damn cold world when shit gets mean Stay the f*ck up off the percs and stay away from the lean Ima tell you how it is I need you alive I’ll do whatevers in my power just to see you survive Man and every night i pray God’ll keep me safe Keep the demons away For protection of my people i solemnly swear To live and die by this black man’s prayer I got a son and i swear i hate the fact When a cop come around i gotta teach him how to act Always look them in the eyes get numbers on the badge If you in the front seat keep your hands on the dash You with your white friends you can’t act how they act The consequence is different when your skin color is black Yeah i know that shit is whack but whats scarier than that Your own race will try to get you too watch your back If you ever feel alone just know i’m by your side Any battle that you fighting just know that I’ma ride No matter what they tell you always know that you King Never run wit any nigga that’s in love with being seen And above all else always remain kind Never be persuaded you got your own mind You my number one guy i need you alive I’ll do whatever’s in my power just to see you survive Man and every night i pray God’ll keep me safe Keep the demons away For protection of my people i solemnly swear To live and die by this black man’s prayer Man and every night i pray God’ll keep me safe Keep the demons away For protection of my people i solemnly swear To live and die by this black man’s prayer I’m here to inspire my main focus is culture If i don’t try to save it then its over Back when i was young OG’s wasn’t goin for the sucker shit Now they let it slide what the f*ck is this I done seen niggas hitting they women Niggas letting it slide It ain’t none of my business Where the f*ck is your pride Back when i was coming up niggas would have abused you How you drug dealing and you using Let me help you put ya crown on So from now on We calling out that sucker shit that niggas down for We doing it with love ain’t no need for animosity The hardest pill to swallow is the honesty Honestly i got a prophecy That we can build a whole colony of prodigies Given the tools so we can conquer the nation Hard work plus patience The sum of all my sacrifice i’m done waiting Man and every night i pray God’ll keep me safe Keep the demons away For protection of my people i solemnly swear To live and die by this black man’s prayer Man and every night i pray God’ll keep me safe Keep the demons away For protection of my people i solemnly swear To live and die by this black man’s prayer
