Dear God forgive me for my sins Death keeps calling me Save my soul from eternal fire Death keeps calling me Dedicated to the young homies In the alley Striking up the hood It's a tiny devil family My memories is taking me back All of this gang activity Shit is making me rap About my brother psycho Earnin' some stripes Caught an enemy slippin' The judge gave em a strike 32 Years Tell me what do you fear? Another homie on the cell block With tattoo tears You think its music on your ipod Its a true story Of candle lids on the sidewalk Another life gone Time lost What's the right cause? Speaking reality Til my mic gone (yeah) If you understand religion Then you understand the streets And the reasons we bust missions Its somethin' we believe in Its kinda like when mexico Was invaded by europeans All we want to do is conquer Not knowing the repercussions The government's the power How can we take back What's ours? We killing each other Drugs turning into gun powder Only God could save us Only God could save us In the cloud of gun smoke Only God could save us Nothing else could change In the cloud of gun smoke I pray the lord My soul to keep If I should die Like a gangsta I pray the lord My soul to keep If I should die Like a gangsta Its impossible Trying to create a unity We dumb as fuck We fucking up our community But when I die You gon' remember my words And realize Prosperity is what we deserve Its kinda hard for me Lookin at all these single moms Baby daddy's in jail She's working 2 jobs While you sittin in a jail cell Writing mail Hoping your family's doing well We gotta break the cycle We fucking up the youth We teach em to kill the rivals We all a bunch of hypocrites The real world Looks at us A bunch of ignorants Non-educated But we gang related Juveniles catching a case Instead of graduating I'm just a gangsta like you What the fuck do I know, right? We blinded by the truth Only God could save us Only God could save us In the cloud of gun smoke Only God could save us Nothing else could change In the cloud of gun smoke I pray the lord My soul to keep If I should die Like a gangsta I pray the lord My soul to keep If I should die Like a gangsta
