[Intro]

Call my name (Hey)

So sweet and plain

But now you're gone and the

Pain comes back again

And I find

[Chorus: Trae tha Truth]

Days I prayed when nights were cold

Nowhere to go but still I roll

Too many lights, it take it's toll

So I stay below, just played my role

Days I prayed when nights were cold

Nowhere to go but still I roll

Too many lights, it take it's toll

So I stay below, just played my role

[Post-Chorus: Trae tha Truth]

Stay in your place 'cause I cannot fake it, I would not hide it, no

Father forgive me, I know I'm sinnin', I was just tryna grow

Swear they were shady, played me for crazy, thinkin' my eyes were closed

Thought they was family, I ain't deserve how they tried to play me low

Stay in your place 'cause I cannot fake it, I would not hide it, no

Father forgive me, I know I'm sinnin', I was just tryna grow

Swear they were shady, played me for crazy, thinkin' my eyes were closed

Thought they was family, I ain't deserve how they tried to play me low

[Verse 1: Trae tha Truth]

They know what it is when I spot 'em

They told me I'll stay at the bottom

I give it to all of my people

I want 'em to know that I got 'em

Don't matter the weight on my shoulder

I stay on call like a motor

I'ma be here when it's over

Don't matter the fight, I'm a soldier

[Chorus: Trae tha Truth]

Days I prayed when nights were cold

Nowhere to go but still I roll

Too many lights, it take it's toll

So I stay below, just played my role

Days I prayed when nights were cold

Nowhere to go but still I roll

Too many lights, it take it's toll

So I stay below, just played my role

[Post-Chorus: Trae tha Truth]

Stay in your place 'cause I cannot fake it, I would not hide it, no

Father forgive me, I know I'm sinnin', I was just tryna grow

Swear they were shady, played me for crazy, thinkin' my eyes were closed

Thought they was family, I ain't deserve how they tried to play me low

Stay in your place 'cause I cannot fake it, I would not hide it, no

Father forgive me, I know I'm sinnin', I was just tryna grow

Swear they were shady, played me for crazy, thinkin' my eyes were closed

Thought they was family, I ain't deserve how they tried to play me low

[Verse 2: Trae tha Truth]

Yeah, too many times I felt left out

I was looking for help and nobody Helped out

Soon as they got they brick, damn, they crept out

It was under they rug and got swept out

I only did it for love but wasn't nothin' there

I been a one man team, nobody playing fair

They way they left me alone, tell 'em I couldn't care

I know the Devil is workin', somebody say a prayer

I was sick time and time, the same thing

Never mention king, give Truth the same name

Over twenty years the heat, the same flame

Tell 'em they be in but leave the same game

All these days I prayed I'd get a fair shot

These niggas ten-on-one, can't get a fair block

Hustled all my life, can't get a fair spot

Off the top, they time off like rare clocks

[Chorus: Trae tha Truth]

Days I prayed when nights were cold

Nowhere to go but still I roll

Too many lights, it take it's toll

So I stay below, just played my role

Days I prayed when nights were cold

Nowhere to go but still I roll

Too many lights, it take it's toll

So I stay below, just played my role

[Post-Chorus: Trae tha Truth]

Stay in your place 'cause I cannot fake it, I would not hide it, no

Father forgive me, I know I'm sinnin', I was just tryna grow

Swear they were shady, played me for crazy, thinkin' my eyes were closed

Thought they was family, I ain't deserve how they tried to play me low

Stay in your place 'cause I cannot fake it, I would not hide it, no

Father forgive me, I know I'm sinnin', I was just tryna grow

Swear they were shady, played me for crazy, thinkin' my eyes were closed

Thought they was family, I ain't deserve how they tried to play me low
