Until I’m Gone Lyrics by DMX

Let Us Pray: Chapter X

2024

[Verse 1: DMX]
I come to you hungry and tired
You give me food and let me sleep
I come to you weak
You give me strength and that's deep
You call me a sheep and lead me to green pastures
Only asking that I keep the focus in between the chapters
You give me the word and only ask that I interpret
And give me the eyes that I may recognize the serpent
You know I ain't perfect, but You like me to try
Unlike the devil who just wants me to lie 'til I die
Lord, why is it that I go through so much pain?
All I saw was black, all I felt was rain
I come to You because it's You who knows
Showed me that everything was black because my eyes were closed
You gave me the light, and let me bask in Your glory
So it was only right, that when you asked for this story
I put it together, to do our dogs some good
Our dogs being brothers and sisters in the hood

[Interlude: Lena Byrd-Miles]
You don't owe me, but You show me
A love that I could never repay

[Verse 2: DMX]
Plenty of times, You send help my way, but I hid
And I remember once You held me close, but I slid
It was something that, I just had to see
That You wanted me to see so I could be what you wanted me to be
And I think I've seen it, cause I don't feel the same
Matter fact, I know I've seen it, I can feel it change
It's strange, what's got me beating down Your door
But I've never known love like this before

[Interlude: Lena Byrd-Miles]
I never knew there was a love like this before (Before)

[Verse 3: DMX]
It's a wonderful feeling to get away from the pain
End up under the ceiling to get away from the rain
And the strain that I feel when I'm here is gone
I know real, so I wipe away the tears with a song
And I almost lost faith when You took my man
Monty, House O, and J's brother, Dan
And I fear that what I'm sayin' won't be heard until I'm gone
But it's all good, 'cause I really didn't expect to live long
So if it takes for me to suffer for my brother to see the light
Give me pain 'til I die, but please Lord, treat him right

[Interlude: Lena Byrd-Miles]
Amen, amen, amen, amen, amen
Everybody say
Amen, amen, amen, amen, amen

[Outro: Snoop Dogg]
Dear Heavenly Father, I come to You, asking for your forgiveness
Thanking you for Your blessings
Continuing to keep You with me every step of the way
Church is not just a word, it's having God in everything I do
