God has smiled on me he has set me (Come on, like when them bullets fly past you) Ooh God has smiled on me and been good to me
Before I was a wild juvenile I used to be a mild Christian young I used to seek and seek and search analyze everybody In my church, a 1 2 seen a lot of hypocrites religious fakers hungers and often takers when I turned 13
I thought church was fake I took all I could take so I took a lil' I went to the world and bought a curl and some crack to slice So I can do my own thing the street life I understand good So I gang banging to prove my manhood, yeah
Have fun baggin' the gun the baddest kid on the Was a Christian son went to the jail Not once but gambling with my life With the dealing buucoooc
God has on me he has set me free (Come on, like when them just fly past you) Ooh God has on me and He's been good to me
I got released in '94 told my mama I wanna get in trouble no mo' I wanna find a job obtain some wealth be independent you And care of my self, I stopped bangin' I really quit But not the people that I got into it back in the day
From Pompale to la they got beef wit' me homie up this day To make a long short I stepped out the tub around the corner to the local night club Sittin' at a just doin' my thang
Just when I got approached by this rival His gang and my gang just got into it I tried to I didn't do it I told ya bro since '94 I been man I don't mess no more
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 been good to me
You know what he said, man he got wit' me he said Call the mortuary order some flowers you you're game But we never ours
He got we started fist fightin' like Mike Tyson I was scratchin' And bitin' a bunch of them started me threw me on the floor And started robbing me the things that they took me Wasn't nothing major, wallet, Walkman cheap lil'
They took my food stamps, my knife me and tried to take my life I tried to fight back but my was useless Ain't no to make enough excuses
I was on the ground getting beat down 8 different people me around, I thought about all the bad things I did when I ran from God as a little kid no sign No reason, no clue, no warning, no fare cared
2 o'clock in the morning licks they was layin' on me But at the same time my momma she was for me Lights from the helicopter filled the air and the cars came Every were I told I don't deserve You but let me live And I'll serve You, God has
God has on me he has set me free (Come on, like when them bullets just fly you) Ooh God has on me and He's been good to me
Sometimes when I'm drinking man I think about all my calls Ya know, I'm saying the times I almost got shot The times I was committing almost got caught by the police Man I think car accidents that never happened
I think about home boys I to one day Next day they catch 50 60 maybe even rest in peace You know what I'm saying but check this out man we still alive God ain't through wit' us so put it down man
Stop all this know what I'm sayin' Go on take care of situations we need 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 that make up Them food stamps y'all from me right
Amazing how sweet the sound That saved a wretch me I was lost but now I'm found Was but now I see
God has smiled on me He has set me God has smiled on me and He's been to me
Amazing how sweet the sound That saved a wretch me I once was but now I'm found Was but now I see
God has on me He has set me free God has smiled on me and been good to me
