Mamma Pray For Me Lyrics by G-Slimm

Fours Deuces & Trays

1994

[Verse 1: G-Slimm]
Oh, father which art in heaven, if you're listenin’ please help me
I'm strugglin' but it seems I’m all by myself, see
I been dealt a hand, now it's too hard to understand
Played the plan of the Klan, and killed another black man
And I'm the one that's griefin'
Every night I'm seein' visions of his face as I'm sleepin’
And my family knows what happened so now they fear me
Sometimes I be talkin’ but ain't nobody there to hear me
So I figured if I holla at you
Maybe you’d show me the way to this lost soul I'm tryna capture
It seems like I'm mixed in the shuffle
Lookin' at life as a great big ball game of hustlin’
Dear God, I need your help bad
Animosity's buildin' up pressure, drivin' myself mad
Ain't no love in my hood no more
And I'm startin' to get the feelin' that my hood ain't where it's good no more
Tomorrow's not promised, death lives up in me
My tolerance is low, head smokin' like a chimney
It's either do or die, thoughts of suicide
Sittin' ?? myself ?? gone, my depression is my best friend
Rest in peace is how I see myself in a few more years
I need assistance in conquerin' my fears, and no I'm not a hoe
Just afraid of what I don't know, look what you dealt me, Lord
[Chorus: Uncredited] x2
Help him, make it, Lord
Through another day in this crazy world
[Verse 2: G-Slimm]
My life is ‘bout as foggy as the San Francisco Bay
The only way I find myself is when I blaze the J
But when I come back down I'm face to face with my life again
Beatin' on my wife again, back to livin' triflin'
But Lord, have mercy, first be understandin'
It's hard to be black when the whites in command
My family abandoned me out here on this island
All by my lonesome, still you see me smilin'
Tryna cover up the pain of rejection
A social misfit, treated like I'm an infection
My question to you, dear God, is can you help me?
Overcome adversity, plus keep me healthy
See niggas come and go and now I contemplate my own fate
Comin' around third tryna slide into home base
Now what's it gone take? To bring the real man out
I'm trying to be a stand out, that's why I got my hands out
Lord, help me
[Chorus: Uncredited] x4
Help him, make it, Lord
Through another day in this crazy world
[Verse 3: G-Slimm]
Seems like I'm runnin' outta time, too many close calls with death
And if it's my time, Lord, you gotta know that I ain't ready yet
So give me one more chance to get my life right
And get my grip tight, before you book me on that final flight
I did dirt, put in work but now I'm feelin' it
That broken heart I gave moms, I know there ain't no healin' it
So I come to you as an escape route
Somehow I get the feelin' you don't hear me talkin' Lord, so I'm walkin' out
[Verse 4: G-Slimm as “God”]
“You shouldn't give up so easily, you're pleasin' me
With your desperate calls for help, stop lookin' on yourself
And treat your homies like your brothers
Just get yourself together and I promise you I'ma ease the pains off your mother
Life has much more to offer than the streets
Learn the knowledge I instill in you, take your homies, teach them
The do's and don'ts and the rights and wrongs
You wanna ?? my child, do what you do best and write some songs
Your lonely cries at night, you know I felt ya
I'ma see to it you get your mind wiped, son, that's why I'm here to help ya”
[Chorus: Uncredited] x4
Help him, make it, Lord
Through another day in this crazy world
