11
Whatever happen Lord, don't pass me by
12
Cause whenever I did wrong it was ya name I cried
13
I heard you forgave over and over again
14
But when I found out I love you, you became ammune to my sins
15
Laid wide awake in da middle of my sleep (I see dead people)
16
And sometimes it's me Lord
17
I never wanted to be a thug father
18
I only wanted to be a son of a father
19
That's how it sounds inside, worse than da war in Iraq, when it's me against I
20
I gave up da weed and somehow I'm still high
21
Three years still seein' them three guys Lord (Whoo)
22
Sometimes I don't know what you want from me, but I do know you know what I want from you
23
(Give it to me)
24
(Come on) Take away this Hennessey, take away me runnin' da streets
25
Stop people from rapin' me, take away all this jealously and prejudicy
26
Lord you said it was better place, I grew up around pimps, hustlers, hoes and project gates
27
Its hard to believe in what I can't see
28
I got to get this money and feed my family
29
[Jay-Z]
30
Whatever in me guides my life, dear Lord don't Let Me Die tonight
31
But if I shall before I wake, what shall I say
32
Its been a good run from hoodlum to outin' da states
33
How could one who made so much foul mistakes, still be allowed to have a smile on my face
34
How whatever da case I'm glad it wasn't murder, in a town you never heard of
35
From a nickel plated burner
36
Now my life straight like a perm, tried to take da spot I earn
37
Muthafucka better learn
38
[Chorus:]
39
(Its hov) Back blocked on everybody laptop
40
(Kell) Hit niggas from da shower, hold a note like da guy who said da British is comin'
41
(Hov) Oh yeah da niggas is comin get out ya good dishes or somethin' like it's Thanksgiving

44
Lord hear me out, got a few more things to say
45
These demons be chasin' me like everyday (Come here)
46
Nah my life on crutches, never say I never walk again
47
But da devil is a lie cause I believe within'
48
You're da reason that I'm still here, even though I don't act like it
49
Even though I hear my callin' and fight it
50
Fools do me so wrong, it's hard to stay righteous
51
Pimpin was allowed to happen I'll hide it
52
Believe me Lord I want you, got money and fame but still it just wont do
53
Sometimes I don't like who I am, when I look in da mirror my reflection is Uncle Sam (Uncle Sam)
54
And every night I have these weird dreams, that a preacher trapped inside of me wake up and can't
55
Breathe
56
I feel like it's twenty of me, goin' twenty different directions on a one way street Lord
57
I got houses, money and cars, and met every single superstar
58
I got da whole music industry sold, but it still don't matter.......
59
[are Kelly & Jay-Z]
60
When I'm gone and my casket closed!!!
61
[Jay-Z]
62
Whatever in me guides my life, dear Lord don't Let Me Die tonight
63
But if I shall before I wake, I'd accept my fate
64
I did what I did my heart was in da right place (Ohhh)
65
I guess so I can live it put food on my plate
66
You must still love me not to let it in by three that day
67
Well whatever da case I'm glad it wasn't murder, in a town you never heard of
68
From a nickel plated burner
69
I guess I'm not finished wit my journey, please forgive me for my sins
70
Shit I'm still tryna learn me
71
[Chorus:]
72
(Hov) From da back block on everybody laptop
73
(Kell) Hit niggas from da shower, hold a note like da guy who said da British was comin'
74
(Hov) Oh yeah da niggas is comin get out ya good dishes or somethin' like it's Thanksgiving

77
[(are Kelly) Jay-Z]
78
Many men (Whoo) have come and gone in these streets (Feel Me)
79
Walked alone in these streets (Ohhh) waitin' to hear from you (Come on Lord)
80
Oh Lord,(Whoo)wrap your arms (Wrap your arms around us God)around da hood
81
(Lift every peace from war, bring our soldiers home, Let us pray)
