In the midst of negativity A positive sight can be blurred And the visions that we thought were good Seems to let evil occur While still possessing our human form We live life searching for greatness since the day we was born And as we bow our heads at night, rich, wealthy Or poor with dislike, we pray, asking for forgiveness for our sinful ways With mind, body, spirit and faith, we pray Amen Yeah (amen), you like that right? (Amen) I wrote it myself by the way (amen) Yo, Young, Jeezy, Jizzle, Snowman (amen, amen) We gotta give the streets what they want, man (amen) Fuck the goddamn shit (amen) You gotta get it in, bruh, let's get it (amen) You like that, don't ya?
