mama's prayers - mesus lyrics
[verse 1]
don’t care about the devil’s plan
here i am, take me out
i ain’t scared
no weapon formed against me prosper, amen
[verse 2]
wasn’t dealt a sh*tty hand, but sh*t just happens, gotta roll with it
my old man was a good man, ’til them demons got a hold of him
and now, they throwin’ sin at me, he’s christian, why’s he cussin’?
i’m just talkin’, sorry, maybe you ain’t part of this discussion
[verse 3]
‘fore you judge him
lookin’ down at where i’m at
look how far i climbed
can we stop, and celebrate
i made it out a life of crime?
[verse 4]
used to break ’em down to dimes, friends approachin’ me, like fiends
how thе h*ll i’m s’posed to tell that tеstimony squeaky clean?
i done seen sh*t, you ain’t seen
i done did sh*t, you ain’t done
got in young, traded off my skateboard, for my first gun
[pre*chorus]
daddy like to sip them booze
almost tripped on daddy’s shoes
but my god is for me
only thing that i can’t do is lose
momma cried herself to sleep
son ain’t playin’ by the rules
but my god is for me
only thing that i can’t do is lose
[chorus]
i went from sinner, to a winner
from a winner, to the champ
not ’cause i ain’t fought
’cause, i learned to get up, off my back
that’s a fact
sinner to a winner, winner to the champ
h*ll and back
without my mama’s prayers, lord knows where i’d be at, yah!
[verse 5]
now, i lay me down to sleep
mama’s prayers echoin’ in my head, while i’m rollin’ down the street
i got that pistol in the glove box, prayin’ they don’t make me reach
and honestly, i’d rather box, but these cowards afraid of beatin’s
[verse 6]
anxiety, testin’ my sobriety
flippin’ through the news, witnessin’ new testiment on my tv
don’t make ’em like they used to, i feel bad for our society
i pray my generation ain’t the last one of a dyin’ breed
[bridge]
what happened to america?
you talk about one nation under god, they try to bury ya
i said, what happened to america? mama, i know god hear you
so i pray, you say a prayer for her
[pre*chorus]
daddy like to sip them booze
almost tripped on daddy’s shoes
but my god is for me
only thing that i can’t do is lose
momma cried herself to sleep
son ain’t playin’ by the rules
but my god is for me
only thing that i can’t do is lose
[chorus]
i went from sinner, to a winner
from a winner, to the champ
not ’cause i ain’t fought
’cause, i learned to get up, off my back
that’s a fact
sinner to a winner, winner to the champ
h*ll and back
without my mama’s prayers, lord knows where i’d be at, yah!
