Max Minelli - 3 Prayers lyrics

rate me

[Max Minelli]

I got three prayers

For real niggaz,thugs, and gangstas . .

Uh. Yeah. You know wha'm sayin'? Yeah

Look, 'till I do it again like this here

This gone be the realest way I ever done it

Ya understand? (Yeah, yeah, yeah)

[Verse One]

Look

Man, I been tryin' ta find my way up out this stress

Brushin' this dirt off my chest

I think I'm spittin' clearly now

I know the nigga with the nest is the more best

Than a motor show I been passin' all my tests

So can you hear me now?

I'm two knees to the dirt, two tears to my eyes

Two arms to the sky

Can you hear me now?

I know the streets done planted somethin' inside of me

Cause somehow, some way, I still know I'm makin' you proud of me

I ain't come here to make excuses for my foolishness

I'm only doin' what I think I'm really 'posed ta do with this

Gifts you hand me so now I feel like I'm spittin' on the

Behalf of the streets and every single nigga on 'em

So when we feel like we drifted too far away from you

And really wanna pray to you, but don't know what to say to you

I try ta spit it right, but none of us ain't livin' right

Usually, we ain't even tryin' hard enough to get it right

But I'ma try again, tell ya come back into my heart

This a new day, fresh start, can you hear me now?

And hopefully niggaz gone learn it

I don't play if they burn it

They sing along to it, we'll be saved yeah

I know it ain't one man that can save the world

I know that. But I figure if I touch one nigga

That'd be a start. With God in my heart, I know

I'ma survive out'chere, thug

[Chorus]

(One) God can you hear a nigga way up there?

When I'm way down here, sayin' my real nigga prayer?

(Two) God can you hear a thug way up there?

When I'm way down here, sayin' my thugged out prayer?

(Three) God can you hear a gangsta way up there?

When I'm way down here, sayin' my gangsta prayer?

I'm so down bad, and even after all that

You still never turned your back, uh..

[Verse Two]

I do this sick 'cause this what keep a nigga sane

I do this here to keep me in the game

This how I vent my anger and my pain

When my struggle for the strain

Feel like a vice grip on my brain

Here go my sunshine, after the rain

Cause now I understand

I can come to you, look up and holla at you like a man, cause

I'm just really really tryin' ta right a few of my wrongs

I holla at you in a few of my songs

Like, this one instead of "make them girls shake they backside"

I thank you for forgivin' me for everytime my back slide

Just tryin' ta spread my vision

Now that I'm in a position to talk to the skreets and they listen

We all thug niggaz, feelin' like we too far gone

We too down bad, we too far wrong

And I realize, we never too far from home

So I'm hopin' they sing along to the song

Cause so many of them hear me now

[Chorus]

[Verse Three]

I know the real feel when I put it down like

When my heart bleed on the beat, this what it sound like

Even them fake niggaz feel when I'm spittin' that

But they got too much pride to be admittin' that

But they can learn every word to it, listen back

This ain't a fabricated rap, nigga this is fact

This is exactly what my heart told to my soul

What my soul told me

What I told to the beat

What I hold to the skreets, that's God still love you

No matter what you do or what a nigga think of you

Even if you got a monkey on yo back

And every prostitutes and thugs too, God still love you

And every woman that done had an abortion

And my niggaz sellin' drugs too, God still love you

He right there to see us fall in them traps

With his arms out, waitin' for us to come back

Hah

[Chorus]

[Max's voice slowed]

See I knew... I knew I had to keep it real with God

When I picked up my pen and wrote this right here

You know Wha'm sayin'? 'Cause after everything he

Done blessed me with, know wha'm sayin',nigga still

Be out here glorifying that foolishness, You know

Wha'm sayin. But at the end of the day, what's real

Is real, Ya heard me? And you can't run from that

You can't hide from that, know wha'm sayin'? You got

To keep it real with him, so that's what I did. That's

Why I say, 'til I do it again like this, this gone

be the realest way I ever done it. It's Young Minelli

World, Nigga...
