Prayin for Help

Sellin' dreams that never seen in the jex?

So many fans with so many arrests
I gotta climb out the grave myself
Winnin', green and the trickz?
Instead of givi' back they stay for theyself
But tribulations come with being the best
Askin' somebody else to give me a hand
I believe one day that I'm a change my life
I�m prayin' for help, askin' somebody else to give me a hand
'Cause of the cards that a nigga was dealt
Man I�m prayin' for help

As we forgive those who trespass against us
Be treated so unjust 'cause I�m tryin' to inspire da folks
I�m tryin' hard but I�m only a man
Handcuffin' 'em and closin' the door
Bet I�m reachin' every one of my goals
Still there's so many reflects, singin' 'bout Tecs
Made a way for theyself
I might be better of prayin' for death
Hopin' somebody else can carry the torch

Still trying to find a way to accept
I done prayed I could find a way
If God with me I can do it myself
They got me prayin' for help
Hopin' somebody else can see what I see

Till I save myself technically I�m still a slave myself
Or the hard that a nigga done dealt
Man, I�m prayin' for help
I pray somehow, someway regardless of what anyone say
Man, I�m prayin' for help
Thy will be done on earth as it is in Heaven
Find the heart and the time to say
Realized I don�t need nobody else
Realized I don�t need nobody else
I�m all alone with no kinda support
For ever, and ever, amen
Can�t you see they only do what they know
Next time you wanna compare my flow just know
While I was prayin' for help
Tired of just prayin' for help
While I�m lookin' at the life I left
Till somebody come and shut off my lights
And you can bet whatever on this
It ain�t a way I can help nobody
Hold yo and I bet I don�t fold
On my knees I knelt
Man it's so many test so many haters love seein' you stress
Hopin' somebody else can carry the torch
Only so many are blessed with
Take another approach
They got me prayin' for help
Be a father a football coach a role model or a symbol of hope
While I was prayin' for help
I know it�s only one king
Tired of just prayin' for help

The ones who won�t pray for theyself

I�m all alone with no kinda support
It�s like the hood only matter to me they got me prayin' for help

Realized I don�t need nobody else
And it�s been so many days
Hopin' somebody else can see what I see
Life ain�t fair I know but why I�m hated everywhere I go
But deliver us from evil
Man niggaz faith on the shelf
You can take the weight and place it on TIP
Tired of just prayin' for help
For Thine is the kingdom, the power, and the glory
It�s like the hood only matter to me they got me prayin' for help
Get right, start livin' like Christ, till the end of my fight
Hopin' somebody else can carry the torch
I ain�t never gone quit
That�s why I�m seen as a threat
So many rappers get so little respect
Instead of testifying against 'em in court

I'll double my load carry it as the trouble unfolds

And forgive us for our trespasses
It�s like the hood only matter to me
Lead us not into temptation
You know I�m prayin for help
But quiet is kept right or wrong
Man I played myself
Without seein' and with all my faith
But when I look at all the fans I touched
I�m all alone with no kinda support
Harder than niggaz hatin' on TIP
If God with me I can do it myself
If it takes till I�m 100 years old
Give us this day, our daily bread
I�m forever gone spit
Instead of reading educating theyselves
Change my life and leave the game behind
One thing, one being, only something I believe
So many playin' theyself
Well, man show 'em the ropes
So they can be worse than before
And it�s been so many deaths
So many chances, so many checks
So many stripes off the streets in my vest

If God with me I can do it myself
Hopin' somebody else can see what I see
It�s kind'a hard not to hate myself
Put that on my soul
I�m tryin' hard but I�m only a man

I'm a be defending my strife

It�s just the way I felt
While I was prayin' for help

No matter how difficult is gonna get
So many niggaz that left out of the hood
So many times I done wish that I could change my mind
So many prisons with niggaz in there
Wanna condemn 'cause they sell dope
I ask how can a man that�s done so much

Askin' somebody else to give me a hand
Man, I�m prayin' for help
I�m tryin' hard but I�m only a man
Then you wonder why they don�t care no more
And the system keep playin' them to the left
