I shall not fear no man but God
Though I walk through the valley of death
I shed so many tears (if I should die before I wake)
Please God walk with me (grab a nigga and take me to Heaven)

Back in elementary, I thrived on misery
Left me alone I grew up amongst a dyin breed
Inside my mind couldn´t find a place to rest
until I got that Thug Life tatted on my chest
Tell me can you feel me? I´m not livin in the past, you wanna last
Be tha first to blast, remember Kato
No longer with us he´s deceased
Call on the sirens, seen him murdered in the streets
Now rest in peace
Is there heaven for a G? Remember me
So many homies in the cemetery, shed so many tears

Ahh, I suffered through the years, and shed so many tears..
Lord, I lost so many peers, and shed so many tears

Now that I´m strugglin in this business, by any means
Label me greedy gettin green, but seldom seen
And fuck the world cause I´m cursed, I´m havin visions
of leavin here in a hearse, God can you feel me?
Take me away from all the pressure, and all the pain
Show me some happiness again, I´m goin blind
I spend my time in this cell, ain´t livin well
I know my destiny is Hell, where did I fail?
My life is in denial, and when I die,
baptized in eternal fire I´ll shed so many tears

Lord, I suffered through the years, and shed so many tears..
Lord, I lost so many peers, and shed so many tears

Now I´m lost and I´m weary, so many tears
I´m suicidal, so don´t stand near me
My every move is a calculated step, to bring me closer
to embrace an early death, now there´s nothin left
There was no mercy on the streets, I couldn´t rest
I´m barely standin, bout to go to pieces, screamin peace
And though my soul was deleted, I couldn´t see it
I had my mind full of demons tryin to break free
They planted seeds and they hatched, sparkin the flame
inside my brain like a match, such a dirty game
No memories, just a misery
Paintin a picture of my enemies killin me, in my sleep
Will I survive til the mo´nin, to see the sun
Please Lord forgive me for my sins, cause here I come...

Lord, I suffered through the years (God) and shed so many tears..
God, I lost so many peers, and shed so many tears

Lord knows I.. tried, been a witness to homicide
Seen drivebys takin lives, little kids die
Wonder why as I walk by
Broken-hearted as I glance at the chalk line, gettin high
This ain´t the life for me, I wanna change
But ain´t no future right for me, I´m stuck in the game
I´m trapped inside a maze
See this Tanqueray influenced me to gettin crazy
Disillusioned lately, I´ve been really wantin babies
so I could see a part of me that wasn´t always shady
Don´t trust my lady, cause she´s a product of this poison
I´m hearin noises, think she fuckin all my boys, can´t take no more
I´m fallin to the floor; beggin for the Lord to let me in
to Heaven´s door -- shed so many tears
(Dear God, please let me in)

Lord, I´ve lost so many years, and shed so many tears..
I lost so many peers, and shed so many tears
Lord, I suffered through the years, and shed so many tears..
God, I lost so many peers, and shed so many tears
