Ja Rule
Sing A Prayer 4 Me
[Intro]
Yea n***a, I'ma heal sumbody soul with this shyt, ya noe
It won't be the last time
[Chorus]
So I pray, for the strength of me to go on
Everyday, knowing im not promised tomorrow
If I may, ask the lord can I come home
Its easier said than done, that's why we pray
[Verse 1]
Everyday 4 da sake of mankind please
Look in my eyes, tell me im lying
Only I cud package and sell the lords gift
Call them records and distribute the sounds of music
Dare to dream, but the sound I hear is acoustic
And my dad is abusive and my momma is losin it
I need base, the type u put in the pot and cook it
Un til it gets hard, hit the block and start movin it
Just had a baby and my baby's momma movin in
With me and momma and there ain't no room 4 all of em
What I would call survival most of em would call quits
But this is how we make our livin, shit
Chorus:
[Verse 2]
Fuck the world, is what my little young'ns is yellin
It feels so good to be young, black, and rebellious (right)
Say what I want (like)
Fuck imus, fuck George bush, them n***as ain't important in my life
But what is, is the next war that we fightin for whats right
Its for whats left and marriages of the same sex
A child's murdered, the media wants to blame rap
Cuz at the time he was listening to some 2-pac
There goes to show that they really don't even care that
He still a child and he never gon get his youth back
Especially when ur charged for being black, young, and dumb
The ones that they get their ideas from
Chorus:
[Verse 3]
Lord hear my call, and curse them all, that pray and pray 4 my downfall
Gotta crawl be4 u walk, walk be4 u run
DMC nd with the world in agreeance
That nobody could quite do it like R U L E and the more I started to read it
The more I started believing it
Invincibility will get u higher than any amphetamine
Dope, coke, pills, lean, or weed
And my star is so bright, man how can it dim
I got 3 kids and I live thru all of them
Its like watchin myself grow all over again
Except this time it looks a little better from here
Chorus:
