Lyrics
White Rocks I been tryna better myself as a man And only focus on what really matters Sometimes I be losin' hope And feelin' like I'm just climbing a never-ending ladder But I be staying prayed up, prayed up Thanking God every day I wake up But I be staying prayed up, prayed up Thanking God every day I wake up [Mistah F.A.B.] Sometimes you gotta, "Whew", "Sigh" Thankful to wake up in the mornin' and see a blue sky Memories of those that we lost after my dudes died War goin' on outside, you gotta choose sides I pick the truth side, 'cause that's the true side Black on black crime, they killin' over these blue eyes Children of Abraham, God's people doin' the devil's work Cemetaries flooded with shovel work Galvanizin' and unitin', they say it will never work Seein' my folks on obituaries and t-shirts, that hella hurt Lookin' on these streets, some alive, but they died 'Cause they gave up, that's why I close my eyes and stay prayed up I been tryna better myself as a man And only focus on what really matters Sometimes I be losin' hope And feelin' like I'm just climbing a never-ending ladder But I be staying prayed up, prayed up Thanking God every day I wake up But I be staying prayed up, prayed up Thanking God every day I wake up [Mistah F.A.B.] Oh yeah, I used to wish a nigga would Now I just pray that he' doin' good A wise man don't waste words on a fool Can't let a fool get you hot, you gotta always stay cool I used to say, "Pull up", now I say juts "Be Blessed" Too many problems goin' on to let your problems have me stressed And I don't wanna hear it if it's bad for my spirit Cleanse that negativity out, don't even use it my lyrics Ain't tryna be better than y'all, just wanna be better than the old me I'm finally listenin' to all the things my mama told me Sit in the bleachers and watch the game and see how they play Take care of your family, mind your business and stay out the way Knew granny had my back on all them nights that I forgot to pray I love you and I'm thankful and I'm grateful, if I forgot to say it No matter what you doin', though, you gotta find a better way And like Pac said, we're prayin' for them better days I been tryna better myself as a man And only focus on what really matters Sometimes I be losin' hope And feelin' like I'm just climbing a never-ending ladder But I be staying prayed up, prayed up Thanking God every day I wake up But I be staying prayed up, prayed up Thanking God every day I wake up [Mistah F.A.B.] Folks is critical instead of creative Too many arguments, too much debatin' Why you mad? Just be motivated Show 'em love even though they hate it Still smilin' after all that I been through 'Cause I done watched so many eras other men do I ain't gon' lie, it get hard, but I continue But I'm just thankful I don't look like what I been through Trials and tribulations, unlawful situations The devil test your patience in a world full of hatred Babies raised to be racist, priests slappin' their faces Religion like the matrix, that's why so many is atheist That's why when I pray it's to the universe Cleansin' my karma with good deeds, hopin' that it's reversed 'Cause we've been cursed since birth for things we did on the truf But we was just tryin' to survive 'cause our stomachs was hurt I been tryna better myself as a man And only focus on what really matters Sometimes I be losin' hope And feelin' like I'm just climbing a never-ending ladder But I be staying prayed up, prayed up Thanking God every day I wake up But I be staying prayed up, prayed up Thanking God every day I wake up [Joseph Kay] White Rocks I been tryna better myself as a man And only focus on what really matters Sometimes I be losin' hope And feelin' like I'm just climbing a never-ending ladder But I be staying prayed up, prayed up Thanking God every day I wake up But I be staying prayed up, prayed up Thanking God every day I wake up
