"Safe" lyrics
1K Phew & Jai'Len Josey Lyrics
Yeah, I remember like yesterday, just runnin' and playin' my plug
Then I ended up goin' left for no love
Hoppin' out that driveway, we thought we got away with doin' drugs
When we hit the highway, they started to hit the car with them slugs
I was prayin' "Lord, I ain't goin' out like this
I been runnin' 'round for a long time and I'm tired of it
Yeah, it's a whole lotta consequences when you finally rich
But if you get me out of this jam, Lord, I'ma go to church every Sunday"
Keep me safe, now lay me down to sleep
And if I'm hurting, get to my knees and pray
Every night, every day, until the sky hope for mercy
I'm not livin' for the trophies and fame
If today's my last day, I'ma live it up (Live it up)
Want some life and love and reason in my Solo cup (Solo cup)
So let the church say ayy, oh-oh-oh-oh (Yeah)
I hope my angels keep me safe, I hope my angels keep me safe
Prayed up, amen, safe to say I had to earn my second chance
Tryna get me life up still, but they don't know I know the Big Man
Head high, Mama always told me "Boy, you better quit playin'
'Cause life ain't nothin' to play with, streets gon' swallow you up like quicksand"
If they cuff you up and take your life away, you screwed
I ain't tryna be another one on that list, gone too soon
'Cause I just gotta make it back to my kids, I got a few
Tryna pay my dues, I had somethin' to lose
'Cause I always had my neighborhood on the news
And I'm livin' proof, but I got nothin' to prove
And I brought my brothers, might as well save them too
Even when I was dead wrong, they would ride for me
And I got some dead-end gone, been inside of me
Lord, they don't play like homies, I'm for real
Fell to my knees 'cause I'm the one they tryna kill
Lord, keep me safe, now lay me down to sleep (Yeah)
And if I'm hurting, get to my knees and pray
Every night, every day, until the sky hope for mercy (Yeah)
I'm not livin' for the trophies and fame
If today's my last day, I'ma live it up (Live it up)
Want some life and love and reason in my Solo cup (Solo cup)
So let the church say ayy, oh-oh-oh-oh (Yeah)
I hope my angels keep me safe, I hope my angels keep me safe
Then I ended up goin' left for no love
Hoppin' out that driveway, we thought we got away with doin' drugs
When we hit the highway, they started to hit the car with them slugs

And if I'm hurting, get to my knees and pray
