God has on me he has set me free (Come on, like when them bullets fly past you) Ooh God has on me and He's been good to me
Before I was a wild juvenile I used to be a mild young child I used to seek and seek search and search analyze In my church, a 1 2 I've a lot of hypocrites religious fakers Deacon hungers and often when I turned 13
I thought church was fake I took all I could so I took a lil' brake I went to the and bought a jerry curl and some crack to slice So I can do my own thing the street life I didn't understand So I started gang banging to my manhood, yeah
Have fun baggin' the gun the kid on the block Was a son went to the county jail Not once but twice gambling with my the dealing dice buucoooc
God has smiled on me he has set me (Come on, like when them bullets just fly you) Ooh God has smiled on me and He's been to me
I got released in '94 my mama I don't wanna get in trouble no mo' I wanna find a job some wealth be independent like you And care of my self, I stopped bangin' I really quit But not the people I got into it wit' back in the day
From Pompale to la got beef wit' me homie up until this day To make a long story short I out the tub Walked around the to the local night club Sittin' at a just doin' my thang
Just when I got approached by rival gang His gang and my just got into it I tried to explain I didn't do it I told ya bro '94 I been straight man I don't mess no more

You know what he said, man he got smart me he said Call the mortuary order flowers you quit you're game But we quit ours
He got exited we started fist fightin' like Mike Tyson I was And bitin' a bunch of them started mobbing me me on the floor And started robbing me the things that they from me Wasn't major, wallet, Walkman cheap lil' pager
They took my stamps, took my knife Took me and tried to my life I tried to fight back but my was useless Ain't no need to make enough
Amen I was on the ground beat down 8 different people kicking me around, I thought about all the bad I did when I ran God as a little bitty kid no sign No reason, no clue, no warning, no nobody cared
2 o'clock in the morning heavy they was layin' on me But at the same time my she was prayin' for me Lights from the helicopter filled the air and the police came Every were I told Jesus I don't You but let me live And I'll You, God has smiled
God has on me he has set me free (Come on, when them bullets just fly past you) Ooh God has smiled on me and He's been to me
when I'm drinking man I think about all my close calls Ya know, I'm saying the times I almost got shot The times I was committing crimes almost got caught by the Man I think about car that never happened
I think about home I speak to one day Next day catch 50 60 years maybe even rest in peace You know what I'm saying but this out man we still alive right? God ain't through wit' us so put it down man
Stop all this know what I'm sayin' Go on take care of some situations we to take care of And to all the who robbed me Hey man I'm still alive so if y'all be so Go down there and buy my tape man will make up Them food stamps y'all from me right
