Dear God

Dear god - holy Father can you save me, the temples destitute - the holy waters looking shady
And oh god - I been walking on this lonely road alone, only world I've ever know - tryna' find my way back home

Now bounce baby (bounce baby) - if you feel my pain, in the middle of the storm - tell me do you feel the rain
Oh damn it's such a shame - cuz my people had it all, in the middle of the war - had to watch my city fall

~

Please deliver me - from evil if I should ride, cuz when they takin them prisoner - they don't take em alive
Its homicide - I'm praying for better days, cuz every morning I wake - to another taken away

I need a sign - no caskets in a mass grave, heard the kids is wildin' out - tell them children behave
Heard the judgments at hand - but it's all part of the plan, and my shackles don't move - unless it's really your command

It's only right - Messiah born to a slave, loading up clips - undoing progress we made
I tell em' like it is - I don't paint it a shade, so when I close my eyes - I cross my hands and say

~

I hear the sos - I'm here to answer the call, if you ain't know about it - hold your breath when I talk
Gurellias on the streets - better watch how you walk, might trip on a body - we never line them with chalk

And you can tell it's going down - by the look in their eye, some is fighting to live - others ready to die
And you know that it's real - when they takin' up arms, they ain't worried 'bout rims - they putting bombs in their cars

And It's gotten out of hand - when the kids is getting scared, you hear 'em if you listen - out here screaming in the dark
I tell em' like it is - I don't paint it a shade, so when I close my eyes - I cross my hands and say

~

Rene you killed 'em with this one
