GANGSTER PRAYER

(Verse 1) Lord, forgive me for my sins, I'm a hustler on the streets Born in the trap, dodging heat, chasing dreams, dodging defeat Mama told me pray, so I kneel before the chrome Asking for strength to carry on, in this world I call home (Chorus) Gangster prayer, rising from the concrete Hands clasped tight, seeking mercy, I entreat Guide my steps, through the darkness I roam Lead me to the light, bring me safely home (Verse 2) Diamonds on my neck, scars on my soul Living in the fast lane, where the sirens patrol Caught between the streets and the pearly gates Seeking redemption, before it's too late (Chorus) Gangster prayer, rising from the concrete Hands clasped tight, seeking mercy, I entreat Guide my steps, through the darkness I roam Lead me to the light, bring me safely home (Bridge) Lord, I know I ain't perfect, but I'm trying To find my way, to stop the lying and the crying Forgive my enemies, bless my brothers, keep them safe Guide us through the struggle, help us escape this wraith (Chorus) Gangster prayer, rising from the concrete Hands clasped tight, seeking mercy, I entreat Guide my steps, through the darkness I roam Lead me to the light, bring me safely home
