[Max Minelli]
I got three prayers
For real niggaz,thugs, and gangstas . .
Uh. Yeah. You know wha`m sayin`? Yeah
Look, `till I do it again like this here
This gone be the realest way I ever done it
Ya understand? (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
[Verse One]
Look
Man, I been tryin` ta find my way up out this stress
Brushin` this dirt off my chest
I think I`m spittin` clearly now
I know the nigga with the nest is the more best
Than a motor show I been passin` all my tests
So can you hear me now?
I`m two knees to the dirt, two tears to my eyes
Two arms to the sky
Can you hear me now?
I know the streets done planted somethin` inside of me
Cause somehow, some way, I still know I`m makin` you proud of me
I ain`t come here to make excuses for my foolishness
I`m only doin` what I think I`m really `posed ta do with this
Gifts you hand me so now I feel like I`m spittin` on the
Behalf of the streets and every single nigga on `em
So when we feel like we drifted too far away from you
And really wanna pray to you, but don`t know what to say to you
I try ta spit it right, but none of us ain`t livin` right
Usually, we ain`t even tryin` hard enough to get it right
But I`ma try again, tell ya come back into my heart
This a new day, fresh start, can you hear me now?
And hopefully niggaz gone learn it
I don`t play if they burn it
They sing along to it, we`ll be saved yeah
I know it ain`t one man that can save the world
I know that. But I figure if I touch one nigga
That`d be a start. With God in my heart, I know
I`ma survive out`chere, thug
[Chorus]
(One) God can you hear a nigga way up there?
When I`m way down here, sayin` my real nigga prayer?
(Two) God can you hear a thug way up there?
When I`m way down here, sayin` my thugged out prayer?
(Three) God can you hear a gangsta way up there?
When I`m way down here, sayin` my gangsta prayer?
I`m so down bad, and even after all that
You still never turned your back, uh..
[Verse Two]
I do this sick `cause this what keep a nigga sane
I do this here to keep me in the game
This how I vent my anger and my pain
When my struggle for the strain
Feel like a vice grip on my brain
Here go my sunshine, after the rain
Cause now I understand
I can come to you, look up and holla at you like a man, cause
I`m just really really tryin` ta right a few of my wrongs
I holla at you in a few of my songs
Like, this one instead of make them girls shake they backside
I thank you for forgivin` me for everytime my back slide
Just tryin` ta spread my vision
Now that I`m in a position to talk to the skreets and they listen
We all thug niggaz, feelin` like we too far gone
We too down bad, we too far wrong
And I realize, we never too far from home
So I`m hopin` they sing along to the song
Cause so many of them hear me now
[Chorus]
[Verse Three]
I know the real feel when I put it down like
When my heart bleed on the beat, this what it sound like
Even them fake niggaz feel when I`m spittin` that
But they got too much pride to be admittin` that
But they can learn every word to it, listen back
This ain`t a fabricated rap, nigga this is fact
This is exactly what my heart told to my soul
What my soul told me
What I told to the beat
What I hold to the skreets, that`s God still love you
No matter what you do or what a nigga think of you
Even if you got a monkey on yo back
And every prostitutes and thugs too, God still love you
And every woman that done had an abortion
And my niggaz sellin` drugs too, God still love you
He right there to see us fall in them traps
With his arms out, waitin` for us to come back
Hah
[Chorus]
[Max`s voice slowed]
See I knew... I knew I had to keep it real with God
When I picked up my pen and wrote this right here
You know Wha`m sayin`? `Cause after everything he
Done blessed me with, know wha`m sayin`,nigga still
Be out here glorifying that foolishness, You know
Wha`m sayin. But at the end of the day, what`s real
Is real, Ya heard me? And you can`t run from that
You can`t hide from that, know wha`m sayin`? You got
To keep it real with him, so that`s what I did. That`s
Why I say, `til I do it again like this, this gone
be the realest way I ever done it. It`s Young Minelli
World, Nigga..
