TRU (Master P). Prayer for a G. Zeneszám
Silkk talking: I don't know if you listening but..
[silkk the shocker]
I got so many questions I don't know where to start
[ wellwhy don't you start from the pain that runs deep in your heart]
(is that you? God is that you? ....... it's me)
Is there a heaven or a hell, if so is that theory true?
[yes my son]
Why go through so much?
[it's a test my son]
So I guess it was you when ? ? gave me the last second to run
[yes]
And I don't know why I shed so many tears
Forgive my god, I haven't been to church in months
[aww son you haven't been to church in years]
Some times I rob, steal and kill, just to eat
I popped him, I don't know if I killed him but somebody died in my building d
[he's here with me]
You think you can forgive me for my sins?
If so hold up, another homie died ? ? you think you can forgive me again?
[i don't know]
Some times I feel like death is chasing me but just ain't catch me yet
I'm wondering if he is going to catch me when I stop to catch my breath
They say days are cut shorter from the things that you did
And if so then why take the kids?
[hold up, hold up my son]
Huh?
[it seems like some puzzle to you, if you got something to ask me, ask me]
Why is it racism? where did drugs come from?
Why is it so much death where I live? who idea was it to make guns?
[y'all]
And why my grandparents was slaves?
And why is is diseases with no cure like cancer and aids?
Why is it rich and poor?
Why is it a death row? [for real]
[that was y'all I ain't have nothing to do with it that was never my will]
And though I try and do everything, I just wanna know if it is worth it
[it was]
Sometime I feel like I'm doing it all, sometime I just don't feel like i
Serve my purpose
[keep your head up]
Nigga scared of the past
All my homies wanna know but scared to ask
[tell them to ask]
God everybody for they self sometime I don't feel like I'm all alone
[feel you]
Don't worry bout me if I have to go so watch my brother them when I'm gone
And what about when I couldn't pay my bills I was almost kicked out where i
Lived
[i just wanted to see if you'll break]
And everything happened at the same time
[i just wanted to see how much pain you can take]
And you must know my lifestyle
[i do]
Knowing I can't change my life
[i don't want you to, do what you gotta do anything not neccassary you'll pay
The price]
So why did my homie die instead of me?
[because I had bigger plans]
I don't understand
[i'll explain, see I wanted you to grow up and be a better man]
I wanna know, how you determine who dies and who stays living?
[the day I made the world my son, it was written]
Look I gotta couple mo' questions I need to know
[what? ]
God, can you tell me, when is it my time to go?
(everything goes silent)
Silkk talking: where you at? I wasn't finish asking you.
