DMX - Prayer[skit] lyrics

rate me

I come to you hungry and tired<br>You give food and let me sleep<br>I come to you weak<br>You give strength and that's deep<br>You called me a sheep<br>And leed me to green pastures<br>Only asking that I keep the focus<br>Between the chaptures<br>You give me the word and only acts I interpet<br>And give me the eyes so I can recognize the serpent<br>You know I ain't perfect, but you'll like me to try<br>And just like the devil who wants me to lie<br>Till I die<br>Lord why is it that, that I go through so much pain<br>All I saw was black and all I felt was rain<br>I come to you because it's you that knows<br>To show me that everything is black<br>Because me eyes were closed<br>You give me the light and let me bask in your glory<br>So it was only right that when you ask for this story<br>I put together to do all dogs some good<br>All dogs being all the brothers and sisters in the hood<br>Plenty of times you sent help my way ? but I hit? <br>I remember once you held me close but I slip<br>There was something that I just had to see<br>That you wanted me to see so I can be what you wanted me to be<br>And I think I am seeing it but I don't feel the same<br>Matter of fact I know I have seen it I can feel the change<br>And it's strange almost got me beating down your door<br>But I have never known love like this before<br>It's a wonderful feeling to get away from the pain<br>And up under the ceiling I get away from the rain<br>And the strain that I feel when I'm here is gone<br>I know real so I wipe away the tears son<br>And I almost lost faith in you when you took my man monty<br>Pass over chase a brother down<br>And I fear that what I saying won't be heard until I'm gone<br>But it's all good, cause I didn't expect to live long<br>So if it takes for me to suffer for me brother to see the light<br>Give me pain till I die but please lord treat him right
