Petey hereI wanna tell im dead broke and im bout to go crazyhalf a tank of gas, two ciggarettsscrapping up change in the ashtraythen the voices its only a test of my faithit was onlyDamn theres a song for that nigga down southThat i was tellin y'all about yo check this nigga shit outMemba that song i told you came on sounding likeHe was talking about everything in my lifeHow he was at a point in his ownand the problem seemed to be taking a tollHe been fightin so longseemed like everything he did went wrongBut he found the strenghth to keep on goingand wrote songs about it later onI know this shit hit me homeespecially when he was talikin about the money he owedhow he took the bills and paid a little somethin on each onelike he'd put somethin on his light bill, somethin on his phonehe'd get lil money in here he paid a lil morehe aint have it all so he just paid what he could on itand somehow he managed to keep all this stuff goingIt was nothin but a grace to the lordCarolina i remeber an i wasdead broke and bout to go crazyhalf a tank of gas, two ciggarettsscrapping up change in the ashtrayand the voices its was only a test of my faithit was onlySay it seemed like every time he got himself off the groundSomethin would come and knock him right back downSometimed he wanted to lay on out for the countfrustrated and tired but he got up anyhowand with a smile i'm talking aboutit makes ya ask yourself how he could then he broke down and saidI aint never been this happy in my life, aint got a dime more than i hadbut everything seems allright, then they said he went lowhaving a joy of a piece of mind, meant more than any problem i hadat a time, and now i know and i'm so gladit was only a sign of the timeit was only asking me why should i cryit was only saying be glad your alive todayit was only (only) a test of my faithman he went and sang that songplay this shit every morning just to get my little day goinYou just dont know how this had touched my soulto find out i wasnt the only one that been through soallmost that exact same something it eased me upknew what it was just couldn't put iy in wordsi aint never been the type that really talk to nobodyso all the problem i had i just kept it all inside meY'all had enough of your own to worry boutNot the little situation i had going onbut yano god wont let you suffer to longi aint even have the radio on i was out on the porchthen boom! from the heavens abovejust when i was at that point and i was just about to mess upman buddah played a song for me cuzi just shook my head like uh uh uh uh[chorus to end
