[INTRO]
|
Heavenly father... Creator of all things
|
I humble myself... As I bow to the throne
|
I pray for love, joy, peace and happiness
|
|
[REPEAT 2x]
|
I pray for love... I pray for love...
|
I pray for love, joy, peace and happiness
|
|
[VERSE 1]
|
They say the closest ones to ya
|
Be the ones that sneak up behind ya and stick the knife through ya
|
That's why now I keep my friends to a minimum
|
Check for the ones wit the venom on they tongue
|
'Cuz niggas is snakes, they hugs be fake
|
Steal from they best friend at his own wake
|
I did all I can do and I took all I can take
|
This is it, crossin' me was ya biggest mistake
|
And was it enough that I split 20% of what I make?
|
Was it enough that I cut niggas half of what I bake?
|
Ain't enough that I almost lost all my bread
|
Bailin niggas out, keepin' a roof over our head
|
Enough is enough I wash my hands I'm done wit it
|
I ain't playin wit u motherfuckers come wit it
|
Keep the fam together God knows I tried
|
But shit ain't been the same since B.I. died
|
|
[CHORUS 1]
|
(I pray for love... I pray for love...
|
I pray for love, joy, peace and happiness)
|
Every day... every night
|
Keep the fam together God knows I tried
|
(I pray for love... I pray for love...
|
I pray for love, joy, peace and happiness)
|
Every day... and every night
|
Shit ain't been the same since B.I died
|
|
[VERSE 2]
|
Lil' Kim the first rap bitch to shake up the charts
|
Act like I ain't the leader of this Million Bitch March
|
Who got y'all rockin' the Prada
|
The Gucci, Dior, Chanel, Versace and Louis
|
Please, I'm the reason this rap game is unisex
|
I'm the reason bitches want bigger breasts
|
Show some respect where respect is due
|
(Without who?) Without me there'd be no you
|
These next few lines it to you women abusers
|
Last nigga I was wit... straight fuckin' loser
|
Niggas think 'cuz you give 'em ya heart
|
They can... dissect it and rip it apart
|
Mm-mm, not I, one nigga's in my eye
|
Payback's a motherfucker, put that on the Stuy
|
You lost a good bitch nigga you can't front
|
Lil' Kim is EVERYthing a man could EVER want
|
And that's real
|
|
[CHORUS 2]
|
(I pray for love... I pray for love...
|
I pray for love, joy, peace and happiness)
|
Every day... and every night
|
Mm-mm, not I, one nigga's in my eye
|
(I pray for love... I pray for love...
|
I pray for love, joy, peace and happiness)
|
Every day, yo... every night
|
Payback's a motherfucker, put that on the Stuy
|
|
[VERSE 3]
|
When the... money is gone (So is ya friends)
|
When the... gas runs out (there goes ya Benz)
|
They just don't make my breed no more
|
Nobody lives by the code of the street no more
|
I don't deal wit the nonsense, I'm keepin' it real
|
Wanna do business wit me? Get in touch wit Hill
|
|
["Big Hill"]
|
That's right any questions? No you can't ask me
|
Put ya name and ya number on a letterhead and fax me
|
U want Kim? Name the location
|
75 grand and that's just for conversation
|
|
[Lil' Kim]
|
I'ma remain loyal while y'all crumble like the foil
|
It's tradition to rock diamonds in my crown, I'm royal
|
Niggas ain't believe in me, they thought it was over
|
Baby girl risin' up like the early mornin' sun
|
Y'all think y'all know but y'all have no idea
|
What the fuck I been goin' through these last 7 years
|
|
[CHORUS 3]
|
(I pray for love... I pray for love...
|
I pray for love, joy, peace and happiness)
|
Every day, yo... and every night
|
They just don't make my breed no more
|
Word, that's it... (I pray for love...)(Every day, yo)
|
(I pray for love) I'm the last of the Mohicans...
|
(and every night) after me
|
there will be none... (I pray for love...)
|
(I pray for love, joy, peace and happiness)... and every night
|
Nobody lives by the code of the street no more
|
|
[Lil' Kim talking]
|
I'm sayin... I just wanna be happy, that's all I don't ask for much
|
It makes me happy to see my people smile you know what I'm sayin
|
I ain't a hater, I don't even like sayin' the word
|
(Nobody lives by the code of the street no more)
|
I'd sacrifice everything I got right now to have my man Biggie here wit me
|
You see that's just how I am
|
'Cuz I'm a rider (Keep the |
