Blessings

(アルバム： Cracks The Safe - 2008)

Heavenly Father
Thank you for the blessings that you have bestowed on me
I realize, that without you, I am nothing
And, when you with me, the world can be against me
And victory will be mine
Or shall I say, victory will be mine through you
And again, thank you for the blessings, that you have bestowed upon me
Amen (Amen)

I realize the blessings bestowed on me
But, realize these streets have got a hold on me
If I don't rat on em, they gon roll on me
And, I know, this ain't what life is supposed to be

I realize the blessings bestowed on me
But, realize these streets have got a hold on me
If I don't rat on em, they gon rat on me
And, I know, this ain't what life is supposed to be
Naw, naw, naw

I took all my problems, and laid em at the altar
I gave 'em to my Father, here's what I have to offer
Make me a better father, so I can feed my daughter
Make me a better sergeant, so I can lead me soldiers
I coulda been a martyr, I'll take and I'll starta
But I was slicker and quicker, smarter and harder
I came so far, bruh
We worked so hard, bruh
Where was you, when we was fucked up, and had no cars, huh, huh, huh

True friends, gonna stay true
Ship jumpers, gonna jump ship
Don't expect much, from a punk bitch
They just sit back, and then bump lips
When the time comes to dump clips, they ain't nowhere to be found
Worked my ass off, to get where I'm at
Bitch, look at me, now

I realize the blessings bestowed on me
But, realize these streets have got a hold on me
If I don't rat on em, they gon roll on me
And, I know, this ain't what life is supposed to be

I realize the blessings bestowed on me
But, realize these streets have got a hold on me
If I don't rat on em, they gon rat on me
And, I know, this ain't what life is supposed to be
Naw, naw, naw

I was blessed with a baby, breathin
Ten fingers, ten toes
Daddy spoils, Daddy's girl
She gotta weird way ah gettin, what she want
It's not, that I spoil my babygirl
It's just that, we live in a crazy world
And, I might not be here, when she's seventeen
I just want her, to remember me
So, I take her to the store, and buy everything
Cause, I may not live, to see a weddin ring
I may not live, to see her senior prom
And, if I ain't here, listen to mom
Do what ya can, to help out
Keep things straight, around the house
And, when y'all argue, watch ya mouth
Cause, that's ya mama, she cares about ya
Loves you, more than anything
Lay down, her life for you
Just like daddy, that ol girl
Right there, she'll die for you
So, if I ain't here, when ya hit ya teens
Try not to be too much, of a headache
And, just know, that we loved each other
You wasn't no mistake

I realize the blessings bestowed on me
But, realize these streets have got a hold on me
If I don't write on em, they gon roll on me
And, I know, this ain't what life is supposed to be

I realize the blessings bestowed on me
But, realize these streets have got a hold on me
If I don't write on em, they gon write on me
And, I know, this ain't what life is supposed to be
Naw, naw, naw

I was blessed, with a pawpaw
That taught me, how to Cracker Barrel
Blessed, with a grandma
That can cook, better than Cracker Barrel
Blessed, with some homeboys
That'll ride, for they homeboy
Blessed, with some people
That'll die for me, homeboy
I do this thing, here
I've done this thing, here
So many years, I'm now, labeled a pioneer
Yeah, underground
Veteran status, I let em have it
Like fully automatics, with metal jackets
You can get it, how you live, baby
Fuck all that talkin, I'ma bring it to ya crib, homie
Boyyy
What I gotta do, to get a little bit ah, peace ah mind
Seem like everybody, wanna take a little peace, ah mine
Try to take mine, I'ma draw the line
Draw the line (Boyyyy)

I realize the blessings bestowed on me
But, realize these streets have got a hold on me
If I don't rat on em, they gon roll on me
And, I know, this ain't what life is supposed to be

I realize the blessings bestowed on me
But, realize these streets have got a hold on me
If I don't rat on em, they gon rat on me
And, I know, this ain't what life is supposed to be
Naw, naw, naw
