Ace Hood - ***** Da World Lyrics
[Intro]Dear heavenly fatherI come to you todayTo remove all these evil spiritsKeep us out of harm’s wayNever allow us to die broke[Verse 1]I pray for them children who woke up this morning and lost they lifeHow dare the government passin’ these laws to remove the ChristAs soon as a tragedy happen the person you call is GodNow people obeyin’ and prayin’, they prayin’ I’m sayin’ it’s odd***** the world – the government tooI’m keepin’ it real, them killers are still in political suitsAnd I hate it, it’s people, it’s nothin’ my brother or sister could doBut sit back and pray as we watchin’ the news and we take the abuseWhat train of thought is tellin’ you shoot up a movie theatre?What kind of fool gon’ walk in a school and off them angels?It could me my moms, my brother or sister, a friend that I knewThe funny thing is, it could’ve been me, it could’ve been youI’m tired of people complainin’ about the little shitWhen I just lost my grandmother to that cancer *****You woke up this morning – why the ***** is you mad?You broke as a joke – get up off your assI hustle like niggas is broke even though I be countin’ the cashI gotta get it – like I’m down to my lastPut that on my mama, don’t wanna go through them tears again‘Cause when you are broke, it’s nobody there, including your friendsLord knows… the realest shit I ever wroteBut through all the bullshit I throw up a sign of hope…But through all the bullshit I throw up a sign of hope[Hook]***** the world – the government tooI’m keepin’ it real, them killers are still in political suitsAnd I hate it, it’s people, it’s nothin’ my brother or sister could doYou can hate it or love it, but youngin’ I’m simply speakin’ the truth[Verse 2]I woke up this morning and I got the news that my homie was shotOut on the block and in front of his daughter, believe it or notGood people are sayin’ and prayin’ for innocent murders to stopWe livin’ in Hell and it’s easy to tell some people are sharksWho are you people to judge me ‘cause of the way that I live?The weight of that crime, the things that I did, the person I amEveryone got opinions but niggas as broke as a jokeI went to them schools and spoke to the children that need it the mostI gave away toys, I gave ‘em a speech, delivered ‘em hopeIt’s a blessing to become a blessing, my mama would set it in stone***** these niggas hatin’ on meHate is such a week emotionAnd money is the root of evilBut that’s that shit that keeps me focusedSometimes I still can’t believe I’m a fatherNo pain can describe on how to reside with losin’ a daughter***** this world – the ignorance tooThey want me to fall, but still I continue to lace up and shootSociety’s being misleaded, I’m simply giving you proofThem people is sellin’ these lies, I’m simply speakin’ the truthLord knows… the realest shit I ever wroteBut through all the bullshit I throw up a sign of hope…But through all the bullshit I throw up a sign of hope[Hook]
