God has smiled on me he has set me (Come on, like them bullets just fly past you) Ooh God has smiled on me and been good to me
Before I was a wild I used to be a mild Christian young child I used to seek and search and search analyze everybody In my church, a 1 2 I've a lot of hypocrites religious fakers Deacon hungers and often takers I turned 13
I thought church was I took all I could take so I took a lil' brake I to the world and bought a jerry curl and some crack to slice So I can do my own thing the street life I understand good So I started banging to prove my manhood, yeah
Have fun baggin' the gun the baddest kid on the 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 been good to me
I got released in '94 told my mama I don't get in trouble no mo' I wanna find a job some wealth be independent like you And take care of my self, I stopped I really quit But not the that I got into it wit' back in the day
From Pompale to la they got beef wit' me up until this day To make a story short I stepped out the tub Walked around the to the local night club Sittin' at a just doin' my thang
Just when I got by this rival gang His and my gang just got into it I tried to explain I do it I told ya bro since '94 I been straight man I don't mess around no
God has smiled on me he has set me (Come on, like when them just fly past you) Ooh God has smiled on me and He's been to me
You know what he said, man he got wit' me he said Call the order some flowers you quit you're game But we never quit
He got exited we started fist like Mike Tyson I was scratchin' And bitin' a bunch of started mobbing me threw me on the floor And robbing me the things that they took from me Wasn't nothing major, wallet, cheap lil' pager
They took my food stamps, took my Took me and tried to take my I tried to back but my efforts was useless Ain't no need to make 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 heavy licks was layin' on me But at the same time my momma she was for me Lights from the filled the air and the police cars came Every were I Jesus I don't deserve You but let me live And serve You, God has smiled
God has on me he has set me free (Come on, like when them bullets fly past you) Ooh God has smiled on me and He's good to me
Sometimes when I'm drinking man I about all my close 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 about car accidents that never happened
I about home boys I speak 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 right? God ain't wit' us so let's put it down man
Stop all this know what I'm sayin' Go on take care of some situations we need to take of And to all the homeboys who me Hey man I'm still so if y'all be so kind Go down there and buy my tape man that make up Them stamps y'all took from me right
Amazing grace how the sound saved a wretch like me I once was 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 good to me
Amazing grace how sweet the That a wretch like me I once was lost but now I'm Was but now I see
God has on me He has set me free God has on me and He's been good to me
