Pressure 4

[Intro] Dear God Thank you for another day But tonight my prayer is gonna be a little bit different Forgive me [Verse] How can I say this without sounding like a fool But if the bible is correct, and everthing it says is true Well then you protect your children and can watch their every move So how come you didn't stop those evil men from enterin that school You let them walk in and take away those lives that you created And destroyed the families close because their lives forever tainted See the media will run it but to them it's entertainment They gonna deal with that forever while the news will keep on changin And before I start the blaming, maybe it's me Maybe there's something in our future you didn't want them to see Maybe you needed some more angels, that could possibly be But they could have went out in peace, you could've took them in their sleep God, you mean to tell me if you took my child away I'm supposed to run to church and act like I got all this faith Like I wouldn't have a problem kneeling down so I could pray Feeling like you took the only thing that gives me any strength And if you didn't save the people, how can I still believe that Anything could keep us safe in the midst of all this evil Sometimes I feel like everyone winnin is so deceitful While the good die young, so we're survived by scum And it's a shame I can't do anything but sit back and watch It's like a movie but it's real, no happy end to this plot But I still ain't going to the movies cause it touches my heart That those people down in Colorado went to one and got shot And tell me what about the starving, don't know why there be starving If they say you turning water to wine, then what's the problem We all can hear them crying for help, but who's responding Maybe you should turn the poorest of dirts into a garden And forgive me if I mislead, anyone with this plea But I'm just trying to find out all the answers that might miss me Cause I don't go to church, no I don't know how it works But I speak to you enough for you to know I am hurt You giving babies to babies, it's no discussion They are born and they bring them up bad, it's so disrupting They treat the blessing we call life like it is nothing And the people that deserve that right are not amongst them See my cousin and her husband have been married for awhile Since high school, I watched them live together with a smile And they praise you everyday, so I'm not understanding how No matter how much they would pray you couldn't bless them with a child It don't make sense, I met this little girl and she was paralyzed So maybe you didn't need her yet, and maybe she didn't have to die But how am I to tell her it's ok, and she don't gotta cry When everything she been through in her life, left her traumatized Why didn't you take her then, I don't need a reason I just wonder why she gotta live her life without her feeling Told me that she was a fan and right before she started leaving I said "God bless" she said "I no longer believe in Jesus" As far as me, you've given me the gift of rap A way to express and I'm grateful for this thinking cap Put me in a position where I ain't never looking back But I ain't making nothing off creating all these sicker tracks I look at everyone you're blessing with success Giving them these opportunities to take them higher steps While they rap about and spread a message we know you don't rep So how can I still be unheard of if we know they don't do it best You telling me that Waka Flocka, Gucci Mane and them Chief Keefs Deserve to be embraced for what they saying on each beat Pushing all them drugs and how they always gonna be street Bragging about courtside, while we struggle for cheap seats I don't get it cause I know they don't deserve it But they say it's God's work so I'm guessing it's all on purpose Or maybe you don't want me to get there because it's worthless And the game is so corrupt that I'm only scratching the surface But everytime I stop or say maybe I need to get a job Something always happens to stop it or really make it hard I don't wanna quit after thinking I couldn't get this far I feel like I'm the best, in the movie I didn't get the star So tell me God, why I'm feeling so grimey Is is cause I never looked still expecting for you to find me Or maybe I'm just blind and I need somebody to guide me I'm so sorry I just needed to put these feelings behind me Amen
