"Bless You" lyrics

Bless You Lord
Keep me in a safe place
Lead me when I feel far away
Bless You Lord
When I don't know where
When I don't know where to go
Bless You Lord
I pray and I pray
Faithfully calling Your name
Bless You Lord
And when I go down
Bless You Lord

I'm blessed, I know it
Could've went left, I know it
I saw my brother, he laying there lifeless
Only God know where he going
Life is a gamble, I'm learning to dice it
You gon' get cut up however you slice it
Talk to the Lord if He told me that
It's alright

I still walk in the dark, I'm a risk taker
See my brother go down over big faces
Lawyers hitting my phone over big cases
Gave my life to the dark, I was nocturnal
Momma said change, I was not turning
So full of trauma, it's not funny
There's some things that I done, I cannot stomach
It's alright

It's not accidental
Texas to Chi-Town, I hopped in that rental
O-Block to K-Town, I wrote instrumentals
I'm walking through blocks
While they clutching they pistols
Me and my lady was ducking in Memphis
Shootouts and murders
We prayed through the trenches
They think I do this to sell my little tickets
They wasn't around
When we went on the missions
Walking through prisons
I give them life even after the sentence
I don't want money, just pay me attention
Already loved, what's a like or a mention
I don't play games, I just play my position
Been in St. Quentin
I walk the yard out in Sterling by Denver
Filled with the Spirit, I'm praying with killers
I told them I know about a
God who'll forgive them
I got the joy of the Lord in my system
I lost my cousin but still got his memories
They took his life
But they can't take his Spirit
I've been through too much
To be worried about a critic
I know He love me in spite of my sinning
I'm not independent, I'm leaning on wisdom
I need intervention, I'm pleading the fifth
Cause these demons be snitching
Like Judas ain't with me

I pray and I pray
Faithfully calling Your name
Bless You Lord
I'm blessed, I know it
Could've went left, I know it
I saw my brother, he laying there lifeless
Only God know where he going
Life is a gamble, I'm learning to dice it
You gon' get cut up however you slice it
Talk to the Lord if He told me that
It's alright

I still walk in the dark, I'm a risk taker
See my brother go down over big faces
Lawyers hitting my phone over big cases
Gave my life to the dark, I was nocturnal
Momma said change, I was not turning
So full of trauma, it's not funny
There's some things that I done, I cannot stomach
It's alright

It's some things that I did
That the devil said
"Boopie, you cannot come back from it"
I'm supposed to be feeling the hurt
That's what I deserve
Instead He came back for me
Yeah, my mama, she kept us in church
But it was too easy to end up with crack money
So I started to empty my Apple computer to rap
While my cousin was Mac dumping
Got it jumping like
You seen a rat running through the crib
He paid for my sin and was paying the bills
I wasn't signed to no label
When I kept on asking God to make me a deal
Can't be big headed
The King gave His life for a price
That I couldn't afford, you hear me
Come to my church on a Sunday
I'm setting up chairs
And wrapping up cords, you hear me
Keep me in Your presence
Don't let this fame get me
And I barter my heart of a martyr
I won a Dove with my brother
But it won't compare to me
Dipping little bro in that water

Bless You Lord
Keep me in a safe place
Lead me when I feel far away
Bless You Lord
When I don't know where
When I don't know where to turn
Bless You Lord
Bless You Lord
Keep me in a safe place
Lead me when I feel far away
Bless You Lord
When I don't know where
When I don't know where to turn
Bless You Lord
