From the recording L.A.M.E. - The Dark Side
Lyrics
Intro:
i ain't prayed in a while, dear lord
i kno u ain't proud of ya child, dear lord
i'm lost, i don't kno how i got here lord
But while I'm here, Lord
i kno that u look down on me
i ain't prayed in a while, dear lord
i kno u ain't proud of ya child, dear lord
i'm lost, i don't kno how i got here lord
But while I'm here, Lord
i kno that u look down on me
i kno that u look down on me...
Dear lord
Verse:
God, we need to talk
This path of mine is too hard for me to walk
i, followed my heart
Wholeheartedly, & got lost
i've, paid my dues but i'm starting to think at what cost
Now, for what it's worth
i kno the bible say the more u kno, the more u hurt
The more u understand, the more u suffer, on this earth
Mama say go to church
Pastor say go to u
So here i am...altho it's been awhile since i spoke to u
i ain't kno what to say, I was ashamed
i hope that u
Forgive me
i lost my faith, & placed the blame
On u, really
i just was going thru a lot Lord
i kno u knew but i didn't kno what it was all for
Metal sharpens metal, u made me a sharp sword
i had to be to fight God's war
i had to go thru the darkness to see the light huh?
Otherwise it'd be like tryna see the light from
A flashlight with the lights on...
Turn the lights on
Outro:
i lost my way...
But i found God
i can't stress yesterday
Or worry about tomorrow
i lost my way...
But I found God
Somehow someway
i lost my faith
When times got hard
i lost my way
But i found God
