On My Mind Songtext
von Master P

And I pray
A lot of shit been on my mind lately
And I pray

Eyes heavy I been crying lately
And I pray

A lot of close people dying lately
And I pray
It′s like the Lord just been sending me these signs lately
And I pray
I wonder if my prayers gettin' answered
I wanna know if I′ma reach these standards
I wonder if my prayers gettin' answered
I just wanna know if I'ma reach these standards

I wonder if my prayers gettin′ answered

Feel like the devil got my whole life on ransom
Police pull me over, harassing me to put on handcuffs
Tryna find a reason just to put me in the slammer
Rest in peace Michael Brown, they got me with my hands up
Like Huey P. Newton, nigga I′m a Black panther


Weight on my shoulder, it ain't shit for me to handle
Cause no matter what, nigga I′ma man up, man up
Streets made me this way, it ain't no purpose
They killing children in school and shooting churches
They ain′t have no jobs, they get robbed, they ain't working

And we still got the nerve to ask the Lord to have mercy
We was trippin′, we was thuggin' at a young age
And now a nigga see your picture on the front page
And rest in peace to my girl Kiamonte
Same thing for
And I pray

A lot of shit been on my mind lately
And I pray

Eyes heavy I been crying lately
And I pray
A lot of close people dying lately
And I pray
It's like the Lord just been sending me these signs lately
And I pray
I wonder if my prayers gettin′ answered
I wanna know if I′ma reach these standards
I wonder if my prayers gettin' answered
I just wanna know if I′ma reach these standards

I wonder if my prayers gettin' answered


Cause I done seen so many fall to the hammer
And she got dialysis, I ain′t tryna get cancer
But I keep smoking cause in Louisiana
Everybody dying over nothing
Everybody bullets flying over nothing
I been thuggin' but thuggin′ led me to losing all my brothers
Graveyards and tombstones, something they never seen coming
I ain't see it either
Man we should've listened to

Man we should′ve listened to

Man we should′ve listened to
We would've never took all of the jail
I lost some niggas to the chopper shells
And they say you learn from your mistakes
Well I ain′t learn from his mistakes
I ain't runnin′ with no snakes
I ain't runnin′ with no fakes
Cause ain't nobody had faith when I done time for the state
So I pray

A lot of shit been on my mind lately
And I pray

Eyes heavy I been crying lately
And I pray
A lot of close people dying lately
And I pray
It's like the Lord just been sending me these signs lately
And I pray
I wonder if my prayers gettin′ answered
I wanna know if I′ma reach these standards
I wonder if my prayers gettin' answered
I just wanna know if I′ma reach these standards

I told my brother not to trust that nigga
He say he Gucci, I say he fake, I don't trust that nigga
I feel it in my guts niggas ain′t loyal no more
Bitches changing feelings like clothes
And family just don't understand
I ain′t make it yet, I'm on the road

To success, but all four tires are on the flat
I lost a lot of lives right out the
Window, ain't no gettin′ ′em back, damn

I smoke a 'gar and pray, I think it make me feel better
Just got off the phone with granny, doctor say she feel better
Good, I need that good because the world bad
Devil taking over, come on up and take the world back
A lot of killing, a lot of drug dealing with the police
Police are killing people, now we running from the police
Damn, ain′t no peace in America
Thought the police was supposed to protect us, but they harassing us

What the fuck going on today?
You could live for tomorrow if you gonna die

A lot of shit been on my mind lately
And I pray

Eyes heavy I been crying lately
And I pray
A lot of close people dying lately
And I pray
It's like the Lord just been sending me these signs lately
And I pray
I wonder if my prayers gettin′ answered
I wanna know if I'ma reach these standards
I wonder if my prayers gettin′ answered
I just wanna know if I'ma reach these standards

I done lost so many friends to the cemetery

Since it's killing in the hood, ain′t even necessary
Naronda died at one years old
They killed a girl at the light, nigga life so cold
And we only famous for obituaries
Terry Miller, man my brother should′ve been legendary

Big Mama up in Heaven, heard Jerry got cancer
I'm on my knees praying, hope my prayers get answered
And CD in his feelings, but I love that nigga
Them niggas he was rolling with, I never trust those niggas
Go to hell for no reason, thank God he still breathing
Them niggas they so deceiving, if I tell you, you better believe me
Cause a lot of shit been on my mind lately

Reminiscing old pictures, I been crying lately

Gone, man Jimbo home
I′m missing everybody I lost but life goes on
And I pray

A lot of shit been on my mind lately
And I pray

Eyes heavy I been crying lately
And I pray
A lot of close people dying lately
And I pray
It's like the Lord just been sending me these signs lately
And I pray
I wonder if my prayers gettin′ answered
I wanna know if I'ma reach these standards
I wonder if my prayers gettin′ answered
I just wanna know if I'ma reach these standards
