[Intro]

Psalm 27, Lord is my light, my salvation

Whom shall I fear? (Lord, forgive me for my sins)

(I ain't cryin', I ain't cryin') cause I have sinned

The Lord is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?

And before I wrap up this Port of Miami (Please Lord, please Lord)

(When the wicked, even my enemies and foes, came upon me to eat up my flesh)

There's a lot of my brothers and sisters (They stumbled and fell)

They wasn't here to watch this come to pass

(Though a host should encamp against me, my heart shall not fear)

And since I can't do shit else, I'mma say a prayer (Amen)

(Though war should rise, in this I shall be confident)

Amen


[Verse 1]

This was 12 years in the makin'

No side deals with satan

I'm dealin' with the Maker (Straight up)

A lot of homies ask 'What's a prayer?'

A prayer is what kept me focused 12 years

A prayer is what saved me, I should've been indicted

Now my kids know Jay-Z (Shawn Carter)

A prayer is what kept me here, when them bullets cut the air

I fell and I just said a prayer

A prayer's like medicine

It will heal wounds, ask Bush veterans

Big holes in a nigga side

Snub-nose .45, homeboy just close your eyes


[Chorus]

Put your hands together, bow your heads

One, keep me alive

Two, keep me out the feds

Three, gotta bless the kids

Four, one for the fam

Five, for the dividends

Dear Lord, here I am

So, I repent my sins, forgive me

One, the grapes on the plate

Two, the tags on the feet

Three, the nights mama cried

Four, I'm thuggin' with the fam

Five, for the dividends

Dear Lord, here I am (Ross)


[Verse 2]

I swear to God I done some things in the past

If I could, please Lord, I'll help you bring 'em back

I feel pain mayn, cause I can't speak on it

That's why I got so many songs, I can't sleep homie (Damn man, damn)

Tattoos for forgiveness (Crosses)

I might not get it, but forgive me (Losses)

I'm here and I'm fightin' like a motherfucker

Triple C's excited like a motherfucker (Triple C's)

Say a prayer, put the weed in the air

Thank God once again for makin' me a millionaire (Amen, amen, amen)

I thank God for makin' me a millionaire (Ross)


[Chorus]

Put your hands together, bow your heads

One, keep me alive

Two, keep me out the feds

Three, gotta bless the kids

Four, one for the fam

Five, for the dividends

Dear Lord, here I am

So, I repent my sins, forgive me

One, the grapes on the plate

Two, the tags on the feet

Three, the nights mama cried

Four, I'm thuggin' with the fam

Five, for the dividends

Dear Lord, here I am (Ross)


[Verse 3]

I used to get stacks of the hoe zone

Now back to back, covers for the Ozone

Made the magazine, billboard goin' strong

Rollin' in the Phantom, with motherfuckin' Rolling Stones

You stuck with me through thick and thin

Sittin' back, got ya mama sittin' in a Benz (Lord)

Make you damn near wanna cry

Low 95, stack money like homicide

Blood shed after midnight

It's just me and this weed, tryna get right

Blood shed after midnight

It's just Ross and this kush tryna get right


[Chorus]

Put your hands together, bow your heads

One, keep me alive

Two, keep me out the feds

Three, gotta bless the kids

Four, one for the fam

Five, for the dividends

Dear Lord, here I am

So, I repent my sins, forgive me

One, the grapes on the plate

Two, the tags on the feet

Three, the nights mama cried

Four, I'm thuggin' with the fam

Five, for the dividends

Dear Lord, here I am (Ross)
