[Intro]
Lord forgive me for my sins
But the pastor told me go out and get it
But the pastor told me go out and get it

[Chorus]
I was raised up by some dope boys
I done called them all my family
We been thru the hardest times
It ain’t nothing God can’t handle
It’s been sewed up since before it even happened I know
Mama raised herself a king, it’s a blessing fo' sho'
Had no food up in the fridge
Mama still made sure we fed
That’s the life that we live
I know it is what it is
It’s been sewed up since before it even happened I know
Mama raised herself a king it’s a blessing fo' sho'

[Verse]
I can’t even hide my pain
I don’t want them seeing tears I’m dancing in the rain
Lost my little 'cause this year shit ain’t been adding up
Said she died of natural causes they ain’t care enough
To even look up in that motherfucker yeah they think we dumb
I’m just praying for my peace now I been singing it
Now I gotta hold a piece just to keep this shit
Lord they tryna take me down and I ain’t seeing it
Mans been tryna take me down and I ain’t believe that shit
They gonna switch up on you quick 'cause they jealous
I feel like I been cutting snakes out my life since forever
We done made it outta hell thru the rain and the weather
Froze my heart now I’m cold as December
Lord forgive me for my sins
But the pastor told me go out and get it
Lord forgive me for my sins
But the pastor told me go out and get it

[Chorus]
I was raised up by some dope boys
I done called them all my family
We been thru the hardest times
It ain’t nothing God can’t handle
It’s been sewed up since before it even happened I know
Mama raised herself a king, it’s a blessing fo' sho'
Had no food up in the fridge
Mama still made sure we fed
That’s the life that we live
I know it is what it is
It’s been sewed up since before it even happened I know
Mama raised herself a king it’s a blessing fo' sho'
