I fight alone
against my thoughts
while wrestling nightmares
and dreams
i sift through my shattered emotions
trying to get to God's feet
i stare at 4 lonely walls
that haunt me with this empty feeling
that God don't answer my prayers
cause they don't get passed the ceiling
if they make it to heaven
why won't he send me a blessing
instead he punishes me
abundantly
for not learning lessons
that he was trying to teach
my grandmama cried and preached
but I'm hard headed
and embedded
in my love for the streets
I feed off the concrete
my appetite is dustruction
call me a stone cold sinner
cause baby i'm out here hustlin'
i came from nothing
so I'm humble
I've been humilated for years
I was baptized in the fire
and christened by my mama's tears
so aint nothing you can tell me
the story has been told
and I don't need advice
or sympathy
just pray
for
my
soul
against my thoughts
while wrestling nightmares
and dreams
i sift through my shattered emotions
trying to get to God's feet
i stare at 4 lonely walls
