This whole world is in a sad condition

But I keep on battling on

[Verse 1: Derek Minor]
|
Uh, aye, aye, good morning
|
The Garden where our innocence died, we're still mourning
|
I rolled up on your cousins like, "listen shorty you're more than
|
Dope boy, jump off Bentley, you are important"
|
But he ain't tryna listen, man he keep on cookin' rocks
|
'Cause he tired of seeing his brother with them holes off in his socks
|
Momma bring these men home, his father they are not
|
But they touch him one more time, might just wind up getting shot
|
Aye, full of rage and pain, I see it in your eyes
|
God is their hope in all, I'm looking at the sky
|
Thinking if we ball, it'll change how we feel inside
|
But the Gospel can only change how we feel inside
|
Christ died for us, ultimate price for us
|
Didn't stay in the ground, got up and rise for us
|
So even if this world is broken, can't never break us
|
My faith isn't in it, my heart is something greater
|
|
This whole world is in a sad condition
|
This whole world is in a sad condition
|
This whole world is in a sad condition
|
But I keep on battling on
|

[Verse 2: Dre Murray]
|
I got a problem with myself, I think I need help
|
Ain't tellin' me I'm rich, I think I need wealth
|
I think I need the belt, baby I'm the champ
|
Is you seein' these jewels? Maybe that's the stamp
|
They call it Grade A, skipped over school, never made a grade "A"
|
But I'm staring at this tool that they call a AK
|
Don't that count for something?
|
Money on the scale, no I can't count for nothing
|
No key for my chariot, I just push a button
|
They call it futuristic, but I call it stuntin'
|
I'm just living my life
|
Looking out for my throne on this incredible night
|
One mil in my crown, what an incredible sight
|
You ain't never seen ten fingers shine this bright
|
I say hey, it's all cool, but it don't mean a thing
|
'Cause when you die, it dies, you're an imaginary king
|
|
This whole world is in a sad condition
|
This whole world is in a sad condition
|
This whole world is in a sad condition
|
But I keep on battling on
|
|
[Verse 3: Json]
|
I'm from the hood where they mask up, strap talk to get cash up
|
Crack flippin' that trap bruh, act tough and get clapped up
|
Yeah, where bodies rot, yeah you can smell death
|
They say the block is hot, I say that's hell's breath
|
Dreads all in they hair, kush smoke in that air
|
Window into his soul, you can see the pain in his stare
|
Uh, since he's a young'un his momma has been the geeker
|
On the streets where, where you could just die for a pair of sneakers
|
They like, "look you can be whatever, " "lil homie sky's the limit"
|
Make it about the hood, but he just see peeps dying in it
|
All around's him destruction, that's the norm for his family
|
Tore down his projects, now all that he's known is abandoned
|
Sadly he's been conditioned that this has to be livin'
|
Tell him do better, you'll have to supply a definition
|
What's even sadder, internally he is broke
|
Nobody that'll show that in Jesus should be his hope
|
And that's sad...
|
|
This whole world is in a sad condition
|
This whole world is in a sad condition
|
This whole world is in a sad condition
|
But I keep on battling on
|
|
[Verse 4: Viktory]
|
Blinded by the world, we stumble 'cause it's all dark
|
Never thought that I would be tempted to fall hard
|
Simple man, yeah, and life is real as ever
|
I study him to learn exactly how he did it better
|
Perfect, not a flaw, not a mistake
|
I used to shine bright, now I'm just praying I don't break
|
Erosion over time, my cleats turn to skates
|
The stress from my slides, you can see it in my face
|
Grace is all I'm leaning on these days
|
I crossed the road and sinners comin' from each way
|
Save me, oh wretched man I am
|
Without these nails in your feet, I don't know how to stand
|
Without these nails in your hands, I don't know who I am
|
Help me turn from this lust, get me out of this jam
|
My soul's at stake, and I could die tonight
|
Chartered the king and he hit me with that private flight
|
