Listen, Listen   Huh listen      Government got it where you can't do shit no mo'   The water ain't no good, the grass don't grow   Never mention schools ain't safe no mo'   Killing in the first grade, six years old   Ask yo self this   In what kind of world is that to raise yo children   Then again it really don't matter, where you gone go   You still gotta live it   Let's face reality, stop talking 'bout peace   That's a thing of the past   But then again that's a bald face lie   'Cause a few years ago you was hanging my ass   Be no presidents   Sometimes the whole world just pressed up against me   Think about it, young black man, come up set up for penitentiary   Do the math, all on you   Choose yo path, be a leader, pray for strength   Know when to cap and when to blast   Get back on track, we damn near got past crack   Then every dope dealer got snatched back   We all wit the black on black that's sad   Is it really in our nature what make it so bad?   But I ain't no better then the rest of y'all   Plus I came up in a house without no dad   I knew that you left, couldn't be there   [Incomprehensible], you didn't won't to   But that how it is, Lord help us   You know what we going through      It's bigger than us, it's out of my hands   That's why I'm praying to God   Oh Heavenly Father, keep my head above the water   It's Your world, but we Your children Your son's and Your daughters   We struggling trying to get it together   But some of us ain't gonna see tomorrow   Some of us ain't gonna see tomorrow   I know some of us ain't gonna see tomorrow      Somebody tell me what you get in a relationship [icnomp]   We ain't married so we can't get divorced   So the only thing left is domesticated violence   When a man uses a woman to take out his problems   He abuses that woman, then man must recognize his assignment   We got two kids and you pregnant again so how can we profit   That's bullshit   That ain't no reason to pull her arm out the socket   Baby I'm so sorry   You know that I love you and didn't wanna hurt you   When I put my hands on ya, I was wrong so I don't deserve ya   I never thought I'd see the day when they scrap a nigga   When they talk about 'em on the T V   Now my sister flipping in the grave   'Cause that's a cheap shot and I know this can't be me   Lord help her forgive me, God give me my purpose   Jesus break these chains, you know this is a vicious circle   But I got my trust in you   I know there will be light at the end of the tunnel   Had it been in many situations   She was there each and everyone of 'em   Keep me humble, I wanna take time out write down   And thank ya, thank ya   Trying to make it wit out you is something we can't do      It's bigger than us, it's out of my hands   That's why I'm praying to God   Oh Heavenly Father, keep my head above the water   It's Your world, but we Your children Your son's and Your daughters   We struggling trying to get it together   But some of us ain't gonna see tomorrow   Some of us ain't gonna see tomorrow   I know some of us ain't gonna see tomorrow      Lord tell them you difference   Between having eternal life or forever burn, burn   Lord tell 'em You was wit' me when I had my accident   And my truck started flipping and turnin'   When it feel like I was dying from the moment of impact   We rolled ten times   I was down on my best, that fool came on my side of the line   But when the truck did finally stop moving I was just fine   My little brother that was on the passenger side   Must of got hurt 'cause he was unconscious   We then had our tragedies   We was just talking so this can't be happenin'   But before I could say anything else   I saw the helicopter and the ambulance   My little brother came back through   First thing he said was "What is going on"   But the next thing he said was   "Watch over me Lord and keep me strong"   And right then and there, I knew every thing was gone be alright   But we ain't promised nothing   So thank you my Lord for saving his life      It's bigger than us, it's out of my hands   That's why I'm praying to God   Oh Heavenly Father, keep my head above the water   It's Your world, but we Your children Your son's and Your daughters   We struggling trying to get it together   But some of us ain't gonna see tomorrow   Some of us ain't gonna see tomorrow   Some of us ain't gonna see tomorrow      It's bigger than us, it's out of my hands   That's why I'm praying to God   Oh Heavenly Father, keep my head above the water   It's Your world, but we Your children Your son's and Your daughters   We struggling trying to get it together   But some of us ain't gonna see tomorrow   Lord some of us ain't gonna see tomorrow   Lord some of us ain't gonna see tomorrow      It's bigger than us, it's out of my hands   That's why I'm praying to God
