Now I lay me, down and sleep
And I pray to the Lord, for my soul to keep
But if I should die, before I wake
Pray to the Lord, my soul to take (pray to the Lord, my soul to take)
[E.S.G.]
It`s fucked up, how the street life is
Murder after murder, ain`t no hope for the kids
Nothing but bad influences, all the role models gone
Can`t look to the parents, cause they ain`t home
How many grandmothers you`ll see, with lil` kids at the sto`
Daddy gone on sherms, his mama gone on blow
Fell through that crack befo`, but I had to climb back out
No mo` dumb shit for me, I had to straighten my life back out
Now I`m stronger than ever, mo` focused and willing
Why these other bitch niggaz, switch for a half-a-million
And sell they soul, and spread lies on your names
Scared cause you might, take a lil` of they fame
But homie fuck my change, fuck these cars and clothes
24`s and low-pros, sold out shows and hoes
Cause when the casket close, and you breathe your last breath
All material shit is gone, nothing but real family left g`yeah
[Hook: Lloyd]
Me and my niggaz ride
Even when the sun don`t shine, and its cold outside
I never run in or hide, cause some niggaz hate it
But I can`t get faded, cause I done made it
Steady struggle and strive
Find my way, out these ghetto streets of mine
This is coming from where I`m from (I`m from)
We all walk back in line (yeah)
[E.S.G.]
If a nigga snitch on you, (I`ll ride for that)
Pull a gun and don`t shoot, you might (die from that)
Come up short with my money, (I might let you make it)
Fuck with me or my family, your life I`ll take it
Niggaz`ll try to fuck your bitch, behind your back
Then say he got love, and talk behind your back
Me and my homie caught a weed case, (on the Boulevard)
But I was on probation, (and he ain`t take his charge)
Wishing I could ask the Lord, (why it be that way mayn)
When you help these niggaz out, they don`t appreciate it mayn
That go for any nigga, a friend or foe
You try to play me like a hoe, you tongue kiss the 4-4
But is that contradiction, (cause you can take it how you wanna)
Like that TV show The Wire, (I`ma fight for my corners)
Trying to build up my team, so we well connected
Don`t feel E.S.G. or Sin, bitch niggaz better exit g`yeah
