- Prayer LyricsI come to you hungry and tired
you give food, you let me sleep
I come to you weak
you give strength and that's deep
you called me a sheep
and lead me to green pastures
only asking that I keep the focus
in between the chapters
You give me the word and only ask that I interpret
And give me the eyes that I may recognize the serpent
You know I ain't perfect, but you'd like me to try
Unlike the devil who just wants me to lie untill I die
Lord why is it that, I go through so much pain
All I saw was black, all I felt was rain
I come to you because it's you who knows
You showed me that everything was black
Because me eyes were closed
You give me the light and let me bask in your glory
So it was only right that when you asked for this story
I put it together to do our dogs some good
Our dogs being brothers and sisters in the hood
Plenty of times you sent help my way but I hid
I remember once you held me close but I slid
There was something that I just had to see
That you wanted me to see so I can be what you wanted me to be
And I think I've seen it, I don't feel the same
Matter of fact I know I have seen it I can feel the change
it's strange almost got me beating down your door
But I have never known love like this before
It's a wonderful feeling to get away from the pain
And up under the ceiling I get away from the rain
And the strain that I feel when I'm here is gone
I know real so I wipe away the tear it's on
And I almost lost faith when you took my fam
Monty passed over and Jay's brother Dan
And I fear that what I saying won't be heard until I'm gone
But it's all good, Cause I didn't expect to live long
So if it takes for me to suffer for me brother to see the light
Give me pain 'till I die, but please lord treat him right
you give food, you let me sleep
I come to you weak
you give strength and that's deep
you called me a sheep
and lead me to green pastures
only asking that I keep the focus
in between the chapters
You give me the word and only ask that I interpret
And give me the eyes that I may recognize the serpent
You know I ain't perfect, but you'd like me to try
Unlike the devil who just wants me to lie untill I die
Lord why is it that, I go through so much pain
All I saw was black, all I felt was rain
I come to you because it's you who knows
You showed me that everything was black
Because me eyes were closed
You give me the light and let me bask in your glory
So it was only right that when you asked for this story
I put it together to do our dogs some good
Our dogs being brothers and sisters in the hood
Plenty of times you sent help my way but I hid
There was something that I just had to see
That you wanted me to see so I can be what you wanted me to be
And I think I've seen it, I don't feel the same
Matter of fact I know I have seen it I can feel the change
it's strange almost got me beating down your door
But I have never known love like this before

And up under the ceiling I get away from the rain
And the strain that I feel when I'm here is gone

But it's all good, Cause I didn't expect to live long

You can only understand the prayer if you have God in your life, so i suggest you be quiet and let the people who understand read and digest the message.
