Lyrics
Instrumental Produced by Mayeniac Beats
I’m gonna ask a question, please tell me the truth
When times got hard and every bill you got is coming due
When you looking in yo pocket and its looking back at you
With the stank face, like boy what is you go do
(Did pray about it)
Remember you was younger, it was just you and yo mamma
Daddy gone, mama stressed, you the man deal with the drama
And the arguments that come with that
Hopped off the porch, them boys had beef, you told em come with that
Right about that time you find dat, them boys really come with that
How they say they got you back, you turn around yo boys done left
They was sitting in that Rocking chair, you playing Rocketeer
We ain never met The Dream but we seeing Rockets here
Sam can sell (Cassell), Can he Smith (Kenny Smith) himself, glide like Drex-E-L
Living in a Shack where the Magic at, never could tell
Never had Penny, Trees rolling (Rollins) in the air
Now that Dennis caught (Scott), I found the time to ask myself
[CHORUS ]
Did you pray about it?
Jesus made it clear somethings only coming through fasting and prayer
Did you pray about it?
Problems everywhere, looking for the answer, you can find em all in prayer
Did you pray about it?
Drop and take a knee my God will show you that he is always near
Did you pray about it? Did you pray about it?
You feeling like an old man? Never getting up
Feeling like a slow jam? Life ain’t fast enough
You tired of the day in and day out
Life and its routines, you want a way out
You wanna quit but stressing on what they’d think about ya
You wanna live but cost just took the vision out ya
You needing love but everybody got they hands out
You always stand up but somehow never stand out
Bout it, you think you bout it, you better stand down
Doubt it, I really doubt it, you ain’t the man how
You think you go find life, when really you being selfish
How you think you reaping love but you ain never been selfless
I’m sorry I got no time for your crying
But I can help you square up and get to fighting
Yeah, you been praying, but that faith you aint applying
I can tell cause everyday you out here whining
