DMX - Prayer (Skit) lyrics

rate me

I come to you hungry and tired

you give food and let me sleep

I come to you weak

you give strength and that's deep

you called me a sheep

and leed me to green pastures

only asking that I keep the focus

between the chaptures

You give me the word and only acts I interpet

And give me the eyes so I can recognize the serpent

You know I ain't perfect, but you'll like me to try

And just like the devil who wants me to lie

Till I die

Lord why is it that, that I go through so much pain

All I saw was black and all I felt was rain

I come to you because it's you that knows

To show me that everything is black

Because me eyes were closed

You give me the light and let me bask in your glory

So it was only right that when you ask for this story

I put together to do all dogs some good

All dogs being all the brothers and sisters in the hood

Plenty of times you sent help my way ?but I hit?

I remember once you held me close but I slip

There was something that I just had to see

That you wanted me to see so I can be what you wanted me to be

And I think I am seeing it but I don't feel the same

Matter of fact I know I have seen it I can feel the change

And it's strange almost got me beating down your door

But I have never known love like this before

It's a wonderful feeling to get away from the pain

And up under the ceiling I get away from the rain

And the strain that I feel when I'm here is gone

I know real so I wipe away the tears son

And I almost lost faith in you when you took my man Monty

Pass over chase a brother down

And I fear that what I saying won't be heard until I'm gone

But it's all good, Cause I didn't expect to live long

So if it takes for me to suffer for me brother to see the light

Give me pain till I die but please lord treat him right
