[Chorus]
|
Time after time, find I question my life
|
How I went wrong, will it ever be right?
|
Will I rise? Will I fall? Stand tall
|
Continue asking, but I'm knowing only God know
|
|
Time after time, find I question my life
|
Where I went wrong, will it ever be right?
|
Will I rise? Will I fall? Stand tall
|
Continue asking, but I'm knowing only God know
|
|
[Verse One]
|
Growing up in the hood as a hard knock
|
I never knew nothing too much about young
|
My only concern was making my money and running these streets as a thug
|
Instead of the birds and bees, I always talk to murderers and the G's
|
That coldness inside me, but I ain't trying to hurt nobody
|
Temptation is keeping me steadily going under
|
And I wonder, if I could make it through the thunder
|
Cause I done caused so much hurt and pain to some that ain't deserve a thang
|
If I could change that, it would all be rearranged
|
But what's done is done and I paid the price
|
and now I'm like, Help me Lord, to better my life, my life
|
Just give me the chance to prove the world that I can be the man that I am
|
And I plan, on keeping it realer, really slow and steady
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
[Verse Two]
|
So now I'm headed to the chapel and I'm fin' to try marriage
|
It's goin' down yeah, yeah, yeah, but what do ya know?
|
Who woulda knew that would make situations worse
|
And my curse, nothing I've tried seems to work
|
And I drop to my knees and I pray, yes I pray
|
And I wonder if I'll ever see a better day (I need a better day)
|
I've seen much in my time and I think it was too much for my eyes
|
The wickedness pulling me closer to failure everytime I think I'm rising, yeah
|
But you live and you learn and try to make better, gotta get control
|
Then follow the Lord and who knows where you'll go, for sho'
|
I can see how I've been sinnin
|
I'm asking the Lord for a little bit of forgiving, 'giving
|
|
[Chorus: repeat 'til fade]
|
