Pray Lyrics

[Verse 1: Dosage]
Its so hard to find yourself, lost in the present
Gods giving gifts, unwrapped leaves you naked

Everythings exposed, look at the gold on my necklace
I don't even wear chains, how am I connected?
Im feeling like a slave to my art, never did I
Debating between either I can or I cannot

But the feelings never permanent as if I'm wearing Hina
Moments never last so I'm MIA (fly like paper, get high like planes)
And I shouldn't but I have on many different occasions
80 degrees outside and I'm spending the day in

Stressed over life, sometimes its a lot to take in
I know I gotta fight, but its bad when you scared to weigh in
And everybody thinks that your a champ in the making
See my problem is I be having sex before the match up
So when they start throwing punches, all I could do was back up


(Phone Call)

[Verse 2: Dosage]
So many distractions, women are my weakness
Its so easy for me to fall in love with an (uhhh)
Then I give her the key to my heart
But I don't even know her like art

Bitches call us dogs and be the first ones to bark
When I tried to move forward they want to parallel park
Me no looking back, my hindsight is kinda like Nostradamus type
I know where I'm going and Ima get there when the time is right

Im not blinded by the hype, it means not a thing
But I know my work, Bada Boom Bada Bing
I gotta dream that I gotta attain
Ive seen people come and go and I'm just trying to remain
The opposite of climbing mountains in order trying to get them
My destination don't matter how far it is, ima get there

While they sit there, I don't see no watches
Looking at the workers, wondering why we prosper
The hatred I know I can't escape it
But its cool because I'm in tuned with our father
Yeah so I pray over my enemies
That wanna see me John F. Kennedy'ed

And to all of my friends that got it in for me
Please prepare for the consequence before you sin for me

Loyalty is everything, I except nothing in between
All I want is respect, don't get X'd by any means
[Speech: Malcolm X}
We declare our right on this earth to be a man
To be a human being
To be respected as a human being
To be given the rights of a human being
In this society
On this earth
In this day
Which we intend to bring into existence by any means necessary
