Open arms welcome you at the gate

Some how you think that you can stand on your feet
Yeah, come on

You trynna be something that you ain't meant to be

Whenever I'm low

Lost in the still of the nite
See son, it's never too late
Ain't no need to lose site

Your mamma's on her knees, pray to God every nite
She'll be holding the light, oh yeah
Lost in the still of the nite

When you was raised better by your family
No job, no house, no car
She'll be holding the light
The road you wanna take will leave you sinking
I see through all them, see your visions hazzy
A family should stick together

Doing all of these horrible things
Slow singing at the side of your grave
Ain't no need to lose site
'Cause she knows that you're
Now tell me how you were mislead so easily
She'll be holding the light
Lost in the still of the nite

Lost in the still of the nite
The effort to correct is never to great
Lost in the still of the nite

'Cause she knows that you're
You thinking that you're grown now
I'm fired up with the preminotions
You're down for me

Lost in the still of the nite
Lost in the still of the nite
Tow drunks, gang bangs, steal cars
Or maybe your future blank
She'll be holding the light
Black suits, long faces, sad words
She'll be holding the light, oh yeah
Your mamma's on her knees, pray to God every nite
You wanna roll around with your crew
