Yo yo yo yo, yo
Turn my mic up some.. turn my mic up some..
Turn my mic, check check, check, turn my mic up some
Almighty, uhh..
[Verse One]
Lord forgive me now
This be the best way I know how, to get this out
I can`t sing so I have to bounce
Even though, that`s not what my style`s about
I hate this world, sometimes it gets me
when family and friends are not friendly
I just don`t get it - so I sit home
in the bassment lights low on the mic and spit it
They plot, to get my scratch
Not knowin the time to get where I`m at now
In my face, like I owe `em somethin
Handout from me, and never did nuttin (word up)
They`re mad at me, like I changed
It`s hard on me Lord, it`s wreckin my brain
Is it me? I know it can`t be
So I ask you, please help me, now
[Chorus: R. Kelly - *sampled*]
Sometimes I laugh, tryin to keep from cryin
If I was plain out of luck, then tell me who could I trust
See I work so hard, just to get ahead
If it wasn`t for God, I`d probably be dead
[Verse Two]
Uhh, I laugh when ain`t nuttin funny
Meanwhile cats wanna count my money
Plan on me, to get jumped or somethin
Plot-ting like E`s punk or somethin
Feels so strange, how I maintain
to last in the game, throughout my fame
I`m focused man, the E stay the same
Hate when folks call me out my name
Damn Lord, heal my body
Cause I`m mad enough to kill somebody
Even hard to trust my lady
Did she lock me down to have my baby?
I know she love me - damn it`s nuttin
The world`s so corrupt, it got me buggin
Uhh, I wanna move away like (?)
Y`all feel me - yo, R. Kelly
[Chorus]
[Verse Three]
Huh, yo, huh
The game changed, damn I should quit
Can`t get respect, without havin a hit
Someone somewhere talkin shit
Got fake cats in my clique
But I deal with the cards that`s dealt
Try to make music that`s heartfelt
Still doin eighty on the Belt`
In the Escalade, with Dolce shades
I`ve been paid, now what`s left?
I guess, should I stress life or death (huh?)
Sometimes I wanna end it all
Live at peace, with `Pac and Smalls
Can`t do that, got fam at the crib
My moms, my pops, my girl and my kids (uh-huh)
.. open my eyes
So I ask you, please help me, now
[Chorus]
