Song lyrics

[Intro:]
One night when me and my mom was about to go to bed, all the doors was locked, when when I had fell asleep, my mom had heard three gun shots. It was to my cousin, his name was Rod, the one that came to pick me up. He had been shot right through the face, right in the neck, and he got shot right in the stomach.

[Chorus:]
I put my hand to the sky, I sing
Grateful for the blessings You bring,
Thank You for the ones I love
Forgive me for the times I was
Down and confused, I know
What I reap is what I will sow,
Once again I find myself
Back with You from my hell.
All I ever wanted was to hear them bitches holler back,
Get some money plus respect and now look, I got all of that,
All I wanna do is see my granny on the other side,
All I wanna do is kill the man that made my momma cry,
All I wanna do is touch a platinum plaque and celebrate,
All I wanna do is keep my niggas out the yellow tape,
All I wanna do is see my granny on the other side,
All I wanna do is kill the man that made my momma cry.

[Verse:]
Right now I'm starin' out the window of my Range and contemplatin', am I sane?
Have I sacrificed for fame?
My occupations on my brain,
Thought that I could change it all if I had change,
But the niggas that I came up with way back is still the same,
I be tryna give 'em game like Santa did when Christmas came,
They be listenin' but it's clear to me they did not hear a thing,
It go in one ear and out the other like a bullet out the muzzle of a pistol shot by brothers standin' point-blank range.
Niggas bang in the Ville, I always thought that shit was strange,
How you claim blood or cuz when that was just a LA thing?
I don't mean no disrespect towards your set, no, I'm just sayin',
That it seem like for acceptance niggas will do anything:
Niggas will rep any gang, niggas will bust any head,
Niggas will risk everything, point him out and then he dead,
Shootin' up where his granny live, blaow, blaow! His granny duck,
He don't give a fuck, he's on Henny and Xanny'd up,
Blowin' Tammy up, “Bitch, when you gon' give them panties up?!
He gon' plant a seed, but best believe he ain't man enough,
Just because yo dick can spray semen, it don't mean that you ready to let go of yo childish ways,
The results are deadly.
Because that child will suffer and that's what can most affect me,
The little girl I met this past summer said, "Don't forget me!"
I won't forget you, how could I with all you went through?
A bullet hit yo cousin in temple while he was with you,
And while you was talkin', I was tearin' up, where's the tissue?
If you was my sister then I would kiss you and tell you that I'm sorry for the pain you had to live through,
I know I'm blessed because yo stress is realer than anything I done been through.

[Chorus:]
I put my hand to the sky, I sing
Grateful for the blessings You bring,
Thank You for the ones I love
Forgive me for the times I was
Down and confused, I know
What I reap is what I will sow,
Once again I find myself
Back with You from my hell.
All I ever wanted was to hear them bitches holler back,
Get some money plus respect and now look, I got all of that,
All I wanna do is see my granny on the other side,
All I wanna do is kill the man that made my momma cry,
All I wanna do is touch a platinum plaque and celebrate,
All I wanna do is keep my niggas out the yellow tape,
All I wanna do is see my granny on the other side,
All I wanna do is kill the man that made my momma cry.

[Outro:]
— It's not that big, well, at least, um, God had saved him 'cause he still alive.
— So why do y'all think that bad stuff happen? Like why can't the world just be all nice things?
— Because God is tryna, um, warn-warn us or teach us a lesson that we need to learn. Or He's tryna warn us of He's coming back to, um, see us and take us home and redo the world. He's coming back to, um, have us be His children and for us to see Him for the first time so we can rejoice with Him and have our time, and after we do that, He's gonna restart the world.

KOD,
Choose wisely!
