prayers up - bizzle lyrics
[pre*chorus]
take a look, tell me what you see
i promise it look like a cemetery in these streets
where the black, brown, yellow, they all shades of gray
they walk around num, like they don’t feel a thing
[chorus]
got me walking around the neighborhood stressed like what is this?
knew we wasn’t well but, how did he get this sick?
all we do is say it’s broken, no one cares to fix it
everything man’s trying to fill
so i’m sending prayers up for my hood
i promise i would change it up, if i could
until then i’m sending prayers up, for y’all hood
until he answers, me
i be sending prayers up, for our hoods
i promise i would change it up, if i could
until then i’m sending prayers up, for all hoods
until he answers, he’ll answer, yeah
[verse]
i look around and all i see is the dead walking
no love, just cold hearts and flesh coffins
grown kids with no fathers and lead choppers
no feelings, just cold heart for the bread constant
no one smiles anymore, everybody mugging
we taught school is wack, now everybody hustling
we taught not to snitch, so the only option is
let ’em run us over, bang, now everybody thugging
we encourage pimping and glorify the player
now ain’t no fathers in these homes and n0body cares
all these cats with this money and this influence
they’d rather rap about crack than put an end to it
they’d rather make it rain and talk about ice
we dying over here, homie, talk about life
we need god more than ever, talk about christ
it’s about that time homie
[chorus]
walking ’round the neighborhood, stressed like what is this?
knew he wasn’t well, but how did he get this sick?
all we do is say it’s broken, no one cares to fix it
everything man’s trying to fill
so i’m sending prayers up, for my hood
i promise i would change it up, if i could until then
i’m sending prayers up, in y’all hood
until he answers, me
i’ll be sending prayers up, for our hoods
i promise i would change it up, if i could, until then
i’m sending prayers up, for all the hoods
until he answers, he’ll answer, yeah
[verse]
can’t even wave to each other ‘ cause our guard is up
and growing up around hate makes it hard to love
you try to love and get stabbed in your heart or cut
now it’s hard to trust so we’re guarded like an armored truck
a generation of men that beaten great women
hit it then run away and just leave her to raise children
don’t be a coward if you knew you was gonna leave his mother
why you break her first? now he’s being raised by pieces of her
our parents ain’t wait for s*x, they just did their own thing
so they feel like hypocrites when dealing with their own things
no more waiting for the ring, now it’s just a grown thing
now she having s*x at 12, thinking that’s what grown means
we are so misguided, trying to find a light switch
the problem is you roll your eyes, if i say that’s who christ is
the lord said today, i said before your life and death
choose life, leave the past behind and you can write what’s left
[chorus]
walking ’round the neighborhood, stressed like what is this?
knew he wasn’t well, but how did he get this sick?
all we do is say it’s broken, no one cares to fix it
everything man’s trying to fill
so i’m sending prayers up, for my hood
i promise i would change it up, if i could until then
until then i’m sending prayers up, for your hood
until he answers, me
i be sending prayers up, for our hoods
i promise i would change it up if i could
until then i’m sending prayers up for y’all hoods
until he answers, he’ll answer, yea
