He who believeth in Ja
|
Shall not be condemned
|
But he that believeth not
|
Is condemned already
|
Only because
|
He has not believed
|
In the man and the only begotten son
|
My Lord
|
|
[chorus]
|
For he so feared the word
|
He left his only begotten son
|
To shed his blood
|
Show that pain is love
|
But I wont cry
|
Cause I live to die
|
Wit my mind on my money
|
And my guns in the sky [x2]
|
|
Yeah,
|
Why would you leave somethin you love here to die
|
In the cold
|
And it grows
|
Like a concrete rose
|
Beautiful ain't I?
|
Till I withered and died
|
In them same streets you left me in
|
Screamin Lord let me in
|
I don't know where to begin
|
Since I lost yo love
|
But then again your love
|
Was strictly for the drugs
|
I dont know whether to hug
|
Or to fill you with slugs
|
Fuckin them whores
|
Instead of claiming what's rightfully yours
|
Pierced a hole in my heart from all the pain you caused
|
With no direction you left your first born lost
|
Give or take a few
|
Cause my hate for you
|
Grew, over the years
|
Through blood, sweat, and tears
|
I wanted to be just like you
|
My father figure, now I want to fight you
|
You bitch nigga, left me 'lone
|
And parts of me never out grown
|
The fact that you left home
|
But moms was so strong
|
Don't let them get you fed
|
This world is yours she said
|
Now nothin is stoppin me but two to the head
|
In life there's more to come when it's all said and done
|
You lost one love, your only begotten son
|
|
[chorus 2X]
|
|
Broke wit nothin to live for
|
And damn ready to die young
|
I'm the shadow behind the gun
|
Look at what I've become
|
The fear of many niggas
|
The floss of most bitches
|
The love that runs deepest
|
In the hearts of street niggas
|
Raised in the ghetto
|
By the ghetto
|
Was taught young to pop the metal
|
That's how shit get settled
|
Learn to cook up the coke
|
Never leave home without toast
|
Learn to fly my bitches with birds, in first not coach
|
Never trust ya, from a toddler to hustla
|
I was trained as a youngsta, to cock back and slug ya
|
Love me or hate me, ya only son
|
Let me live or kill me, the chosen one
|
Ja, under the gun, gotta kill 'em fo' sho'
|
If you want it you gonna get more then you askin for
|
Life's got more to come, but when it's all said and done
|
You lost one love, tour only begotten son
|
|
[chorus 2X]
|
|
I wanted to be forever yours
|
Look it now we're nothin more than two lost souls
|
Lookin to meet at the crossroads
|
I burn the hydro, lay back with my eyes closed
|
In deep thought like Brittany is somethin I'd die for
|
How the fuck do you sleep at night?
|
Knowin you wronged the only thing you ever did right
|
Despite the loss I stretch the length of a short
|
Now I got a new father whose name is New York
|
Runnin wild in the streets
|
With heat, we don't talk
|
Cause when its cold you basically live life in dark
|
But light will shine from the heavens and bless one
|
Ja Rule; love, your only begotten son
|
|
[chorus 3X]
