midnight prayerz - sylent lyrics

intro:
our father, thou art in heaven, hollowed be thy name… thy kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. give us this day our daily bread and forgive us our tresp-sses as we forgive those whom tresp-ss against us… and lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil… amen

it’s after dark and i’m walking down the streets alone
because my jefa once again kicked me out the home
nowhere else to go so i’m kicking it in the park
i need some time alone away from the pleito that homies start
i wonder to myself ‘how the f-ck did it get to this?’
in my parent’s eyes, i was nothing but a little kid
who gives a sh-t what my homeboys think about me?
whenever i had needed ’em, they were never around me
i hear ’em tell me that they’ll ride for me, die for me
but if i should die tonight, not a single one would cry for me
but i’m a man, i can stand on my own feet
there ain’t no prison or no varrio that ever owned me

hook (xs 2)
times are cold when we’re left on these streets alone
no more homeboys by my side and no more love at home
we’re wondering ‘why does this life hate us?’
underneath the streetlamp while we say these midnight prayers

sitting in the park the next day while i’m watching all these families
children playing with their daddies, that’s the man i planned to be
no one was understanding me. my baby mama took my girl
it made me numb. i felt like dying. that sh-t shook my world
i put a smile on my face and kicked it on the streets
replaced it with a mad-dog whenever i had felt some heat
my family turned their backs when i had needed ’em
my homeboy stabbed me in the back when i always believed in ’em
life is deceiving us, making us think we count
if i had just went to college, i wouldn’t be down and out
my family would be proud of me and finally hold their heads high
time p-sses by, lost in thoughts. praying through the midnight

hook (xs 2)

smile now, never cry. i laugh when i’m in pain
blast when i’m afraid that i won’t see my baby’s face another day
listen to my mother say “it’s time to be a man now”
kicking me, my girl and my baby right out her d-mn house
no more handouts. eating the same dinner every day
recording demos, trying to blow up in this crazy game
my lady’s playing games, looking like a stranger with her lies
i want to hit her but see mariah’s reflection in her eyes
confessions at midnight. i don’t pray that god forgives
i just hope he understands why i did the things i did
committed evil sins. knew right but did it wrong
and pray that he protects my family in the days when i am dead and gone

hook

bridge (xs 2):
times are cold when we’re left on these streets alone
times are cold when we’re left on these streets alone
times are cold when we’re left on these streets alone
no more homeboys by your side and no more love at home

outro (xs 2):
god, please. protect me from my enemies
god, please. protect me from my enemies
god, please. protect me from my enemies
the snake slithers in the gr-ss thirteen steps ahead of me
