FINISHED SONGS Dear Lord, can you help me
I don't know which way to go
I can't stop livin this life
Cause it's all that I know
The pain of living
Is pushing me towards sin
It's my own road to hell
And I seem to be on it again
How can you help me
When I can't help myself
I done gave up tryin
So I play the cards I was delt
I don't see a future
My heart pumps poison thats killing me
Every time I close my eyes
It's a funeral that I see
But I got to bust back
Before this world takes me under
Make them feel what I feel
Make this whole world suffer
It's all fucked up
The way I see things
Look thru my eyes
And you can see what hell brings
It seems I wake up there
Every single day
And no matter how hard I pray
I can't find my way
Thats why we raw, dawg
Far above the law, dawg
Every thing we saw, dawg
Makes us what we are, dawg
So who can you trust
In this life a sin
The ones you think your friends
Will probably do you in
Who can you count on
To watch your back
Who's gonna stick around
When the times get black
When you got a lil somthing
Everyone wants a peice
But when times get hard
The friendships cease
Phoney bitches
Always tryin to decieve
But when the good times are thru
They jump ship and leave
So always watch your back
Cause this world is crazy
The bull-shit I see
Never ceases to amaze me
Just keeep ya head up
Even when times get hard
Be true to ya self
Don't let them pull ya card
And stay raw, dawg
Far above the law, dawg
Cause everything we saw, dawg
Makes us what we are, dawg
Whenever I look around
All I see is disgust
Jelousy, petty hatred
And fuckin mistrust
I can't even explain
How the world's affected my soul
I feel I'm pass my prime
And I'm only 27yrs old
So at night I ask the Lord
How much longer will this last
But I get no reply
So I guess it's not ny place to ask
Lord, it's so hard
To put my trust in what you say
When I got these mothafuckas
Lying to me every day
So please God, I'm beggin
Show me a way out
Give me a sighn that your listening
So there can be nomore doubt
It's hard these days
To find somone to trust
And even harder to over come
The traps laid by jelousy and lust
So when you all alone
Keep one eye on ya back
Cause the second you ain't lookin
Is when the demons attack
Just struggle and keep ya head up
And belive in a better time
When we got another option
That dosen't include a life of crime
But it seems to just get harder
The struggle continues
And before you know it
Look what we got ourselves into
It seems to survive
Our soul is the cost
And to forever be haunted
By the loved ones we lost
I know somtimes it seems
Life is to hard to juggle
But still we get up, get out
And continue the struggle
So we stay raw, dawg
Far above the law, dawg
Everything we saw, dawg
Makes us what we are, dawg
What is there left
For our children not to see
You wanna see people die
Just turn on your t.v.
Or better yet
Let's take a walk down the street
And I'll show you where an 92yr old women
Got pistol whipped last week
These children bustin in the air
Beggin God for an answer
While the disease of poverty and violence
Spread like a cancer
It's like we stuck in the game
And ain't got no chance of winning
And shit don't change
It's been this way since the begining
So how you dare you even think
To pass judgement on me
You couldn't even understand
Half the things that I see
Maybe it wasn't the worst
But it seemed hard enough
As I struggle to keep my head up
When times get tough
I know a lot of people out there
Find it hard to understand me
But I blame the system
For the destruction of our families
But I refuse to be a victim
So I refuse to run
And if there's anyone that feels this
Then I'm not the only one
So stay raw, dawg
Far above the law, dawg
Every we saw, dawg
Makes us what we are, dawg
