COULD'VE BEEN ME

Chorus (2x)

Now, I don’t have a clue                              
What you going through                             
But we gotta stop living like
We don’t have something precious to lose
When i think about my peeps                                
That lost they life in the streets                                          
I fall down on my knees and give thanks to the lord
Cause it could’ve been me                          

1st verse

Dirty, why you wanna play? Fast frank use to say
Look at our city it’s a pity people dying everyday
I’m convinced it’s nonsense tell me what we gotta do to stop it
It aint shocking that the prisons the biggest
Commodities on the market
The crime rate it escalates
 most murders pre-meditated
Evils so overwhelming got my soul feeling desolated
I bring the truth but can you stand it
God bear witness this aint no lie
Aint no peace when you die if you aint living right, right ni
It’s important that you know life don’t begin until it ends
I’m more than pleading
I’m begging for you to turn away from sin
There’s no time to be wasting
Look at this crooked world that we facing
That’s why this generation needs spiritual dedication
I got a desire to save some souls
But only through god can it manifest
But you gotta go through Jesus
And only then can you be blessed
Aint no problem to big for god
No situation he can’t resolve
But you gotta get involved
Do you hear what I’m saying to ya’ll?

Chorus

2nd verse

So many soldiers dead and gone
It’s kind of hard to believe
Like Jeremy, meli mel, Sheldon and lil cheese
See life is but a moment
One day you’re here the next you’re not
Some of us waster our life away
Never do enough with the time we got
Keep the lord in your heart
And your dreams before your eyes
Diesel here to fill your up
Open your mind let me spill inside
I wanna reach who wanna be reach
So we can ride to eternity
Father give me the gift of speech
Cause its some things concerning me
What do it profit to gain the world
Then in turn lose your soul
Do you really wanna burn in hell?
Or is it that you just don’t know
That there is life after death
You can be with satan or be with god
He weeps for our disbelief, believe it or not
He takes it hard
Because we doing what we want to do
Not the things he want us to
But it’s your choice, it’s free will
Where your end up is up to you
Aint no halfway or in between
Either you cold or your hot
Either you wit em or against em
You for em or you’re not
