《Pray For Me》歌词

[00:00:02] Joe Budden - Pray For Me

[00:00:32] I woke up without a heart beat

[00:00:35] But, I remember we was just in the car deep

[00:00:38] Was at a light, and got approached by a car thief

[00:00:40] He pulled out but didn't ask for no car keys

[00:00:43] A loud noise without a voice but i'm tryna scream out...shit is not fair

[00:00:47] I can't tell you where i'm at or how I got here

[00:00:50] Surrounded by all white, maybe it's just cloudy

[00:00:52] Escorted by two men who knew everything about me

[00:00:55] Both of 'em so strong, kept sayin' hold on

[00:00:58] Feel like my soul's gone...naked no clothes on

[00:01:01] I know this can't be my fate, I scream wait

[00:01:04] As they drop me in front of a gate

[00:01:06] They left no trace...I can see my every breath

[00:01:09] Like a cold day, stood in front a man with no face

[00:01:12] He said to me "please dont make this any harder"

[00:01:15] Who the **** is you? "my child i'm your Father"

[00:01:17] I only got one dad "is that a fact to you?"

[00:01:19] "He left you when you was young, I brought him back to you"

[00:01:23] "You're real close to heaven, few get to step in"

[00:01:26] "Now tell me what you've done to deserve to be let in"

[00:01:28] Look i'm far from a Christian, not big on religion

[00:01:31] But ain't done too much wrong my entire time livin'

[00:01:34] Never killed, never tried to...though I been lied to

[00:01:37] Was once suicidal, never read the Bible

[00:01:39] I always been a caretaker, tried to nurse people

[00:01:42] At times it back fired...hurt people, hurt people

[00:01:45] Plus I never used your name in vain

[00:01:48] But you should know everything I'm bein' asked explained

[00:01:51] "I know you stole from your mother's purse"

[00:01:52] You can't count that, that was way back when

[00:01:54] "It's still a sin" ...but I was ten

[00:01:56] "You robbed peoples' stores" Yeah, and YOU made me see jail

[00:01:59] "But I also seen you lay your hands on a female"

[00:02:02] "Sold drugs to parents, none of that was needed"

[00:02:04] "Abandoned your child, on every girl you cheated"

[00:02:07] "Done wrong to people that only want the best for you"

[00:02:10] "Anytime you thought you were alone, I was next to you"

[00:02:13] When it comes to baby moms...God you gave me the worst one

[00:02:15] "But that was your second child Joe...you shouldn't have killed the first one"

[00:02:18] I ain't have a job...ain't have a pot to piss in

[00:02:21] "Look I gave you a gift, and you made the wrong decision"

[00:02:24] "Held on to resentments, even in doin' business"

[00:02:26] "I lead by example, I teach forgiveness"

[00:02:29] "Your entry...cannot be guaranteed"

[00:02:32] "Not when you live with anger, envy, greed"

[00:02:35] "Pride, sloth, lust even glutony"

[00:02:38] "Everything you shouldn't if you would've joined my covenant"

[00:02:40] Look i'm only human, I ain't perfect "That I understand"

[00:02:43] "When I take you out a jam, you don't even think to worship"

[00:02:46] "And when you do...you never talk about what...

[00:02:49] "...You can do for me, it's what I can do for you"

[00:02:51] "I blessed you with health, family and wealth"

[00:02:54] "But all the blessings you've received...you still always want help"

[00:02:57] Yeah there's been times in my life I needed help to make money

[00:03:00] But why everything I love, you manage to take from me

[00:03:03] Yet you stand there and question a nigga that tries hard

[00:03:05] And finds a way when you keep dealin' him ****ed up cards

[00:03:08] You make mistakes like me, far as I can see

[00:03:11] I think it's a mockery whenever rich niggas win the lottery

[00:03:13] Gave us Bush twice, God I hate to be rude

[00:03:16] But you let skinny niggas starve, give obese niggas food

[00:03:19] The nerve of you tellin' me I dont deserve to stay here

[00:03:22] When you gave us drugs and guns, you put AIDs here

[00:03:25] Take a look at chu, your actions are cold hearted

[00:03:27] The harsh **** is you bring babies in the world retarded

[00:03:30] I know most my actions put me in a cell

[00:03:33] Now how you mad at me when you put me in the Hell?

[00:03:36] "See my child, you need gratitude, maybe just a sample"

[00:03:39] "I never give a person anything he can't handle"

[00:03:41] "Don't tell me 'bout everything you had to go through"

[00:03:44] "There's reasons for my actions even if I never showed you"

[00:03:47] "Kept tryin' wit chu, all you did was hurt me"

[00:03:50] "Still gave you chances to prove that you was worthy"

[00:03:53] "And so I sat wit chu on a train"

[00:03:55] "I asked you for change, you kept callin' me names"

[00:03:58] "Prolly didn't notice, I was a store clerk"

[00:04:01] "You put the gun to me, get money for more work"

[00:04:04] "My child, I know you have it in you to indeed stop"

[00:04:06] "This is not your final calling, just a brief stop"

[00:04:09] "Hope you heed my words and understand"

[00:04:12] "So when I see you back, you should be a better man"

[00:04:15] "Look at life different, the next time we see each other"

[00:04:17] "There'll be no need to talk, whenever we meet each other"
