God's Been Good

Committin' sins, they know they get hanged for
And I'ma thug on in memory of Hollywood

So, I'ma thank the Lord for her
Look at all my money, look at all I've done
Nope the crib and the same no more
And it's obviously helped because these niggas keep tellin'
Whatever you spend on your momma I be gettin' it back
They doin' they own lil' thangs though
Raised all us, based all us
Seen a lot of other other thangs that was strange
Could've been Cuban, Columbian or Haitian
Could've been from overseas or the West Indies
But nigga God is straight, for as long as you keepin' it straight
Could've been anything but God made me black

I done learned a lotta things in this game, matter fact

If you help me Lord my heart'll never change and y'all pray wit me
They don't see your name no more

While he was givin' me that he said remember you're black
So as you see, a new watch and a Benz
On everything I love, I'm a thug
I done considered a change but what for
Could've had anything but God gave me stacks
So in Jesus' name I pray for better thangs
And even though I'm thuggin', God's been good to me, good to me
I could've been Asian, Bohemian, Puerto Rican, Jamaican
A lotta things done changed since last year

And I'm still gettin' money wit my same old friends
Could've been Japanese, Chinese or Guyanese
Alla my homies in pen fields

Look at all my money, look at all I've done

So I can keep this in life, but free my niggas tonight

I can't be lying to them, if I'm ridin' for them
Look what God done gave me, look what God done, done
And these young niggas don't respect the game no more
Look at all my money, look at all I've done
Know this lady named Miss Pearl, my old girl

Keep believin' in him and you'll be leavin' with him
And there's a new game out called snitchin'
Think thug for life, 'cuz God's been good
Look what God done gave me, look what God done, done
Look what God done gave me, look what God done, done
And even though I'm thuggin', God's been good to me, good to me
And even though I'm thuggin', God's been good to me, good to me

I gotta tell 'em how it really is
Lord, please help me smell my thugs
Huh, huh-huh 'fore they come get me and then come get you

And even though I'm thuggin', God's been good to me, good to me
And even though I'm thuggin', God's been good to me, good to me
And even though I'm thuggin', God's been good to me, good to me
Look at all my money, look at all I've done
And even though I'm thuggin', God's been good to me, good to me
'Cuz you know where I'd be if it wasn't for her
Look what God done gave me, look what God done, done
And even though I'm thuggin', God's been good to me
