[00:10.32]Of course, I’m thankful for another day, my Lord I can’t lie
[00:13.29]But everytime I wake up, seem like one of my people gotta die
[00:15.96]Anthrax poisoning, Hussein and them blew up the Trade Center
[00:19.02]Summer, fall, spring, winter, people in the projects getting thinner
[00:21.53]Barely enough government cheese, left to feed the rats
[00:23.85]But we gotta get it how we live, and how we live is selling crack
[00:26.60]How we live is kicking doors, how we live is pimping whores
[00:29.31]How we live is what we do, so we don’t live like this no more
[00:32.04]How we live is wrapping ’em up, sipping on my weight to receive
[00:34.50]An overloaded Houston Texas, niggas make they own bleed
[00:37.54]Every night another murder scene that could have been prevented
[00:39.93]But the truth is we love death and the last soul tormented
[00:43.07]Every now and then I duck my head up in the Sunday service
[00:45.51]That’s the only place where 5-0, won’t burst us, bust us
[00:48.33]Nigga they don’t love us, they wanna relocate us to the Penn
[00:51.02]We wanna do right, but all we see is sin
[00:53.43]In this land, we need you Jesus
[00:56.11]Lord have mercy, we need shelter in the time of storm
[01:00.54]Uh-huh, well, well, well
[01:04.68]Jah, Rastafari, help me (help me)
[01:09.60]All the young pickney dem living in a rush just to get wealthy (wealthy)
[01:14.99]Inna the ghetto, we struggle and we hustle ’til we pop up on top
[01:18.68]Eliminating with competition when we buck shot
[01:21.35]Don’t press that new button, and ah pierce that fire
[01:24.14]Fire, fire, fire, fire
[01:25.79]Too many sickness and disease, under attack from overseas
[01:31.14]Mighty Jah we haffi count on you, please come save the day
[01:36.61]If I should die before I wake, mi leave a blessing for mi people today
[01:41.79]Mighty Jah mi haffi count on you, take this pain away
[01:47.15]In this land, we need you Jesus
[01:49.92]Lord have mercy, we need shelter in the time of storm
[01:54.22]Uh-huh, uh-huh
[01:58.14]In this land, we need you Jesus
[02:00.68]Lord have mercy, we need shelter in the time of storm
[02:05.64]Uh-huh, well, well, well
[02:09.58]Now I lay me down to sleep
[02:11.84]I pray the Lord keep my body as my enemies creep
[02:14.44]Don’t wanna be another statistic, living through CDs
[02:17.19]Either the graveyard or max security prison, you’ll see cheese
[02:20.19]Look at the homie’s little girl, she ain’t nothing but sixteen
[02:22.75]Tryna support three kids, so she stay coming out her jeans
[02:25.34]Getting pimped by somebody that still live with they mama
[02:27.71]But that’s the only way she know to get away from all the drama
[02:30.83]As for books, the mind is a terrible thing to waste
[02:33.36]As for crooks, the line is a terrible thing to taste
[02:35.95]Ask them niggas that done bit the bullet but they still here
[02:38.95]My nigga we ain’t seen God before but we still fear
[02:41.60]I asked him for a plexing and he sent me Eugene
[02:43.96]Now, I got two cars, a crib and everyday I dress clean
[02:47.00]But it ain’t no love, they wanna put a nigga in the Penn
[02:49.69]I wanna do right, but all I see is sin
[02:51.96]In this land, we need you Jesus
[02:54.68]Lord have mercy, we need shelter in the time of storm
[02:58.97]Uh-huh, uh-huh
[03:02.72]In this land, we need you Jesus
[03:05.12]Lord have mercy, we need shelter in the time of storm
[03:09.87]Uh-huh, well, well, well
