DMX - Prayer Lyrics
I come to you hungry and tiredYou give me food and let me sleepI come to you weakYou give me strength and thats deepYou call me a sheep and lead me to green pasturesOnly asking that I keep the focus in-between the chaptersYou give me the word and only ask that I interpretAnd give me the eyes that I may recognize the serpentYou know I aint perfect,but youd like me to tryUnlike the devil who just wants me to lieTill I dieLord why is it that,i go through so much painAll I saw was black,all I felt was rainI come to you because its you who knowsYou showed me that everything was black because my eyes were closedYou gave me the light and let me bask in your glorySo it was only right that when you ask for this storyI put it together to do our dogs some goodOur dogs being,brothers and sisters in the hoodPlenty of times you sent help my way,but I hidAnd I remember once you held me close,but I slidThere was something that I just had to seeThat you wanted me to see so I can be what you wanted me to beAnd I think Ive seen it,but I dont feel the sameMatter of fact I know Ive seen it,i can feel the changeAnd its strange almost got me beating down your doorBut I have never known a love like this beforeIts a wonderful feeling to get away from the painAnd up under the ceiling I get away from the rainAnd the strain that I feel when Im here is goneI know real so I wipe away the tears with a songAnd I almost lost faith when you took my man monty,paso,and jays brother danAnd I fear that what Im saying wont be heard until Im goneBut its all good,cause I really didnt expect to live longSo if it takes for me to suffer,for my brother to see the lightGive me pain till I die,but please lord treat him right
