[Talking] Please give me the strength I need to live... Bear with me Amen We each walk the path, that we've chosen [Chorus] I'm ready to meet him, We're I'm living ain't right Black hate white White hate black It's right back To the same fight They got us suspecting a war But the real war is to follow the law of the lord Lord, you left me stranded And I don't know why Told me to live my life, Now I'm ready to die Ready to fly I cry, but I shed no tears You told me you would dead those fears, it's been years Snakes still coming at me Just missing Sometimes I think all you doing me is just listen I thought that I was special Thats what you told me Hold me Stop acting like you don't know me What'd I do so bad that it sent you away from me Not only sent you away, but made you stay away from me (My child I'm here, as I've always been, it was you who went away, And now are back again, what did I say?) Follow your word, and be true (What did you do?) Well…what I wanted to do... (What have you seen?) Darkness and hell at a glance (What do you want?) All I want is another chance Chorus (Just because you went away, my doors are not locked, wanna come back home, all you gotta do is knock) Ya see, I left home a boy, I returned as a man Full grown, and I'm still not able to stand (I gave you a hand) Well...but I was looking the wrong way Figured out the plan, then I started to pray And that prayer, took me from here to over there Back to over here, Now they got me like where? Do I belong? Do I fit in? Things on my mind, where do I begin? It's easier to sin, but it hurts my heart I'm really tryin' to win, so where do we start? (Thou shall not steal) But, what if he stole from me? (Thou shall not kill) But what if he's tryin' to kill me? (Thou shall not, take my, name in vain, no matter how hard it rains, withstand the pain) Chorus Our father, who art in heaven I'm not ashamed to ask for guidance, at 27 No longer afraid to knock on your door Not scared anymore to lose my life in the war After what I just saw, I'm ridin' with the lord Cause I really can't afford to lose my head by the sword And now that I've seen, what I need to see Please take me, where I need to be (What have you learned?) It's better to tell the truth than to lie (What have you learned?) To love my life until I die (What have you learned?) Violence isn't always the key (What have you learned?) You can't always believe what you see (What have you learned?) It's better to forgive and forget (What have you learned?) Give as you expect to get (What have you learned?) That I can't go on without you (What have you learned?) I musta been a fool to ever doubt you Chorus I'm ready to meet him

I come to you hungry and tired you give me food and let me sleep I come to you weak you give me strength and that's deep you call me a sheep and lead me to green pastures only asking that I keep the focus in-between the chapters You give me the word and only ask that I interpret And give me the eyes that I may recognize the serpent You know I ain't perfect,but you'd like me to try Unlike the devil who just wants me to lie till I die Lord why is it that,I go through so much pain All I saw was black,all I felt was rain I come to you because its you who knows you showed me that everything was black because my eyes were closed You gave me the light and let me bask in your glory So it was only right that when you ask for this story I put it together to do our dogs some good our dogs being,brothers and sisters in the hood Plenty of times you sent help my way,but i hid and I remember once you held me close,but i slid 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've seen it,but I don't feel the same Matter of fact I know I've seen it,I can feel the change and it's strange almost got me beating down your door But I have never known a 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 with a song and I almost lost faith when you took my man Monty,Paso,and Jay's brother Dan and I fear that what I'm saying won't be heard until I'm gone but it's all good,cause I really didn't expect to live long So if it takes for me to suffer,for my brother to see the light Give me pain till I die,but please Lord treat him right

[DMX] Let us pray Lord Jesus it is you, who wakes me up every day And I am forever grateful for your love.. .. this is why I pray You let me touch so many people, and it's all for the good I influenced so many children, I never thought that I would And I couldn't take credit for the love they get because it all comes from you Lord; I'm just the one that's givin it And when it seems like the pressure gets to be too much I take time out and pray, and ask that you be my crutch Lord I am not perfect by a longshot -- I confess to you daily But I work harder everyday, and I hope that you hear me In my heart I mean well, but if you'll help me to grow then what I have in my heart, will begin to show And when I get goin, I'm not lookin back for NOTHIN Cause I will know where I'm headed, cause I'm so tired of the sufferin I stand before you, a weakened version of, your reflection Beggin for direction, for my soul needs resurrection I don't deserve what you've given me, but you never took it from me because I am grateful, and I use it, and I do not, worship money If what you want from me is to bring your children to you my regret is only having one life to do it, instead of two Amen

[DMX]
Let us pray
Father God I am just learning how to pray, so bear with me
First I thank you for the life of everyone that's here with me
Then I thank you for the love you give me, why?
I don't know; I don't deserve it, and it hurts inside
Many a nights I cried, and called your name out loud
But didn't call you when I was doin good, I was too proud
And STILL you gave me love, I wasn't used to that
Most of the people that gave me love, they ended up takin it back
That's somethin new to me, so I'm askin you for time to adjust
Let me make it there, I will be one you can trust
What I stand for, I put my life on, I DO!
I guess what I'm askin is - show me how to stand for you
And I will RAP for you, SING for you, PREACH for you, TEACH for you
REACH for you - I will love you like you love me, unconditionally
And I will ALWAYS be prepared, for whatever the mission'll be
GIVE THE NUTRITION TO ME, and I'll properly digest it
And when I give it back, I'll show you word well invested
And whenever I go, BEFORE I GO, let me give
Thanks to you Lord, my birth, for every day that I've lived
You gave me a love most of my life I didn't know was there
IN THE NAME OF JESUS! I give you my life, cause you care

Let us pray
Father thank you for makin me righteous
and accepted through the blood of Jesus
Because of that I am blessed and highly favored by you
I am the object of your affection
Your favors surround me as a shield
And the first thing that people come in contact with
+IS+ my favorite shield
Thank you that I have favor with you and man today
All day long, people go out of their way to bless and to help me
I have favor with everyone that I deal with today
Doors that were once closed are now open for me
I receive preferential treatment and I have special priveledges
I am God's favorite child
No good thing will he withhold from me
Because of God's favor my enemies cannot triumph over me
I have supernatural increase in promotions
I declare restoration of everything
that the devil has stolen from me
I have honor in the midst of my adversaries
and an increase of assets
Especially in real estate and an expansion of territory
Because I am highly favored by God I experience great victories
Supernatural turn-arounds and miraculous breakthroughs
in the midst of great impossibilities
I receive recognition, prominence and honor
Petitions are granted to me even by unGodly authorities
Policies, rules, regulations and laws
are changed and reversed on my behalf
I win battles that I don't even have to fight
because God fights them for me
This is the day, the set time the designated moment
for me to experience the free favors of God
that profusely and lavishly abound on my behalf
In Jesus MIGHTY name we have prayed; Amen, and Amen

Sometimes I wonder what life's about
Sometimes I wonder why the lights are out
Sometimes I wonder why I like to shout
Sometimes I wonder, what the lies are about
Sometimes I see things I shouldn't have seen
Sometimes I wonder why, I'm a hood and a fiend
Sometimes I look at what I've become and cry
Sometimes I, get on that BULLSHIT and be ready to die
Sometimes a nigga that's yo' man might get it
Sometimes even though it's sweet, if you ain't wit it
Sometimes the pain is too much to BEAR
Sometimes it RAINS too much to care
Sometimes if you, don't watch yo' back it'll cost you
Sometimes you wonder, who would give a FUCK if they lost you
Yet sometimes the sun shines around the clock
But sometimes it's dark, and hell is hot

i know that my saviour lives and at the end he will stand on this earth
my flesh may be destroyed but from this body i will see god
yes i will see him for myself and i long for that moment....
gran'ma, i really miss you and it ain't been the same

We get away with everyday shit, but everyday shit
catches up to you and when it does you can't say shit!
[singing] Now I know, only I, can stop the rain
If I don't, you will, when I won't, you steal
What makes it feel like we gots to kill?
[singing] Now I know, only I, can stop the rain
How many more lives must we lose?
How many more times must we choose to trust these fools?
[singing] Now I know, only I, can stop the rain
If it ain't broke, don't fix it
I gave it to you straight don't mix it twist it up on some slick shit
[singing] Now I know, only I, can stop the rain
I don't have to talk to it any more
I don't have to walk to it any more, I'm out the door [SLAM]
[singing] Now I know, only I, can stop the rain
I wanna find peace with the Lord
I don't wanna find a beast with the sword, I can't afford to
[singing] Now I know, only I, can stop the rain
When every day of my life
Is a constant fight between wrong and right
[singing] Now I know, only I, can stop the rain
I thank you Lord for my life
Thank you Lord for keepin it loose when things got tight
[singing] Now I know, only I, can stop the rain
Only I can stop the rain
Only I can stop the pain, yeahh
