They try to kill us in the streets

Oh Lord, put your blessings over me

When I lay my head on down

I pray the city won't make a sound

Lord, put your blessings over me

I'm at the end of my rope, but I'm still swingin'

Fate took the key to my home, but I'll break in

Someone come guide me close, guide me to winning

And no, I'm not giving in, whoa

In the morning time (in the morning time)

[?]

'Cause every day I wake up

Every day I'm thankful

Give me the light (give me the light)

Give me the life (more life)

'Cause every day I wake up

Every day I'm thankful

They try to kill us in the streets

(They wanna shoot us on the streets now)

Oh Lord, put your blessings over me

(So put your blessings over me)

When I lay my head on down

I pray the city don't make a sound

(Don't make a sound no more)

Lord, put your blessings over me

(So put your blessings overs me)

Sometimes it's me on the road (all alone now)

Glory be to my newborn

I finally bought a house

Wifey and me all good now

'Cause it's the funny little things in life

That turn a boy into a man sometimes

I owe it all to everyone who gave me some direction

'Cause I'm finally living life alright

In the morning time (in the morning time)

[?]

'Cause every day I wake up

Every day I'm thankful

Give me the light (give me the light)

Give me the life (more life)

'Cause every day I wake up

Every day I'm thankful

They try to kill us in the streets

(They wanna shoot us on the streets now)

Oh Lord, put your blessings over me

(So put your blessings over me)

When I lay my head on down

I pray the city don't make a sound

(Don't make a sound no more)

Lord, put your blessings over me

(So put your blessings over me)

Whoa, oh Lord, put your blessings over me

Whoa, oh Lord, put your blessings over me

Throw all your prayers and your blessings on me right now

Don't wanna see everything, I love a come down

Throw all your prayers and your blessings on me right now

Don't wanna see everything, I love a come down

They try to kill us in the streets

(They wanna shoot us on the streets now)

Oh Lord, put your blessings over me

(So put your blessings over me)

When I lay my head on down

I pray the city don't make a sound

(Don't make a sound no more)

Lord, put your blessings over me

(So put your blessings overs me)

Whoa, oh Lord, put your blessings over me

Whoa, oh Lord, put your blessings over me
