[00:29.00]
[00:32.98]I woke up without a heart beat
[00:35.02]But, I remember we was just in the car deep
[00:38.07]Was at a light, and got approached by a car thief
[00:40.73]He pulled out but didn't ask for no car keys
[00:43.50]A loud noise without a voice but i'm tryna scream out...shit is not fair
[00:47.31]I can't tell you where i'm at or how I got here
[00:50.30]Surrounded by all white, maybe it's just cloudy
[00:52.50]Escorted by two men who knew everything about me
[00:55.22]Both of 'em so strong, kept sayin' hold on
[00:58.23]Feel like my soul's gone...naked no clothes on
[01:01.39]I know this can't be my fate, I scream wait
[01:04.56]As they drop me in front of a gate
[01:06.54]They left no trace...I can see my every breath
[01:09.32]Like a cold day, stood in front a man with no face
[01:12.18]He said to me "please dont make this any harder"
[01:15.03]Who the fuck is you? "my child i'm your Father"
[01:17.49]I only got one dad "is that a fact to you?"
[01:19.91]"He left you when you was young, I brought him back to you"
[01:23.40]"You're real close to heaven, few get to step in"
[01:26.02]"Now tell me what you've done to deserve to be let in"
[01:28.74]Look i'm far from a Christian, not big on religion
[01:31.53]But ain't done too much wrong my entire time livin'
[01:34.23]Never killed, never tried to...though I been lied to
[01:37.01]Was once suicidal, never read the Bible
[01:39.81]I always been a caretaker, tried to nurse people
[01:42.97]At times it back fired...hurt people, hurt people
[01:45.77]Plus I never used your name in vain
[01:48.14]But you should know everything I'm bein' asked explained
[01:51.00]"I know you stole from your mother's purse"
[01:52.62]You can't count that, that was way back when
[01:54.16]"It's still a sin" ...but I was ten
[01:56.69]"You robbed peoples' stores" Yeah, and YOU made me see jail
[01:59.91]"But I also seen you lay your hands on a female"
[02:02.12]"Sold drugs to parents, none of that was needed"
[02:04.81]"Abandoned your child, on every girl you cheated"
[02:07.44]"Done wrong to people that only want the best for you"
[02:10.35]"Anytime you thought you were alone, I was next to you"
[02:13.11]When it comes to baby moms...God you gave me the worst one
[02:15.92]"But that was your second child Joe...you shouldn't have killed the first one"
[02:18.60]I ain't have a job...ain't have a pot to piss in
[02:21.44]"Look I gave you a gift, and you made the wrong decision"
[02:24.12]"Held on to resentments, even in doin' business"
[02:26.91]"I lead by example, I teach forgiveness"
[02:29.81]"Your entry...cannot be guaranteed"
[02:32.35]"Not when you live with anger, envy, greed"
[02:35.41]"Pride, sloth, lust even glutony"
[02:38.13]"Everything you shouldn't if you would've joined my covenant"
[02:40.65]Look i'm only human, I ain't perfect "That I understand"
[02:43.68]"When I take you out a jam, you don't even think to worship"
[02:46.18]"And when you do...you never talk about what...
[02:49.30]"...You can do for me, it's what I can do for you"
[02:51.92]"I blessed you with health, family and wealth"
[02:54.61]"But all the blessings you've received...you still always want help"
[02:57.37]Yeah there's been times in my life I needed help to make money
[03:00.36]But why everything I love, you manage to take from me
[03:03.06]Yet you stand there and question a nigga that tries hard
[03:05.71]And finds a way when you keep dealin' him fucked up cards
[03:08.54]You make mistakes like me, far as I can see
[03:11.23]I think it's a mockery whenever rich niggas win the lottery
[03:13.84]Gave us Bush twice, God I hate to be rude
[03:16.76]But you let skinny niggas starve, give obese niggas food
[03:19.55]The nerve of you tellin' me I dont deserve to stay here
[03:22.51]When you gave us drugs and guns, you put AIDs here
[03:25.34]Take a look at chu, your actions are cold hearted
[03:27.87]The harsh shit is you bring babies in the world retarded
[03:30.87]I know most my actions put me in a cell
[03:33.51]Now how you mad at me when you put me in the Hell?
[03:36.33]"See my child, you need gratitude, maybe just a sample"
[03:39.16]"I never give a person anything he can't handle"
[03:41.76]"Don't tell me 'bout everything you had to go through"
[03:44.60]"There's reasons for my actions even if I never showed you"
[03:47.29]"Kept tryin' wit chu, all you did was hurt me"
[03:50.28]"Still gave you chances to prove that you was worthy"
[03:53.23]"And so I sat wit chu on a train"
[03:55.93]"I asked you for change, you kept callin' me names"
[03:58.56]"Prolly didn't notice, I was a store clerk"
[04:01.26]"You put the gun to me, get money for more work"
[04:04.00]"My child, I know you have it in you to indeed stop"
[04:06.83]"This is not your final calling, just a brief stop"
[04:09.83]"Hope you heed my words and understand"
[04:12.46]"So when I see you back, you should be a better man"
[04:15.09]"Look at life different, the next time we see each other"
[04:17.96]"There'll be no need to talk, whenever we meet each other"
[04:21.46]
