[Verse 1] Pray for me I can really use the faith I've been beaten up and beaten down but I ain't 'bout to break 'cause Life is what you make it and the reaper's on the take While the angels despise man and the demons are the wraiths If the government is for us why the fuck do they ignore us Killing anybody refusing to sip from out their pourage I'm reading everything, learning 'bout anything I can't take a loss so I'm betting on every ring Used to have a steady thing, grinding with a heavy swing Took a charge and kept it close, shit I ain't say anything Raised to be a soldier, I'm fighting on the front lines World up on my shoulder man, I done did enough time My past is haunting me, this felony is taunting me This job ain't paying shit and this child support is dogging me Heart jumping beats like a motherfucking frog in me Fear became normal and the pain became a part of me [Chorus] Somebody pray for me Somebody pray for me Somebody pray for me (You ain't shit) That's what they say to me [Verse] A lot of hard work, shovel through the hard dirt 9 to 5 ain't cutting it, I gotta raise the bar first Gotta get a car first, this city buzz ain't going far Limits in this city, fuck your pity, I'm a shining star Born to raise the status quo, gotta raise my status though Money is the key to things and I don't really have it yo No fronting like I'm getting it, that trap is only paying bills And in between the customers I'm writing trying to raise my skills My son is learning life, seeing what the struggle is Daddy's just a felon, his mother don't got enough to give Barely got enough to live, I'm scraping up these pennies Too much pride to ask for some money, you can lend me Thank God for my girl, she always there to help me up While others judge me for my lifestyle, she ain't give a fuck And her words have always stuck, I hope she knows that she's enough She ain't fold to the pressure, standing firm in the rough I don't ever make a promise I can't keep Until I make a way, I'm awake 'cause I can't sleep I'm lying with these dirty ass boots on my damn feet I'm ready for the money, or I'm going with plan B, this damn heat [Chorus] Somebody pray for me Somebody pray for me Somebody pray for me (You ain't shit) That's what they say to me [Chorus] Somebody pray for me Somebody pray for me Somebody pray for me (You ain't shit) That's what they say to me Pray for me........
