Before I sleep
I pray to the lord my soul to keep
And if I shall die before I awake
I pray to the lord, my soul to take
For goodness sake
Before I sleep
I pray to the lord my soul to keep
And if I shall die before I awake
I pray to the lord, my soul to take
For goodness sake

I wrote my will just the other week
And what's funny it was only one sheet
And I know there's only one me
But I hope I am everything my son be
I'm trying to live right stay on the drum beat
But I'm in the fast lane, in the front seat
I wonder will I lose control of the Mazerati
And hit some tree just being young me
Is there a heaven for G's and soldiers?
I can't go to hell… cause I'll take over
I feel it approaching but I aint scared.

I made that bed and I should rest in peace.

Yea and every time I see the sunshine
I drop down and give thanks at least one time
Feeling like I'm living on the frontline
I'm feeling like every second is crunch time
I've had breakfast…will I make it to lunchtime?
And I aint joking so don't be looking for punchlines
Will I be the next victim of a gun crime?
I don't know the answer that's why I brung mine
Riding by myself late at night
Pistol on my lap at every single red light

I made my bed right so when I do
I should sleep tight and peace I rep

Bury me a gangsta cause that's what I live
Don't cry for me I gave the best I could give
I can only do me so that's what I did
And I cherish every breathe of my kid
And I don't wanna go before she grow that aint cool
But in this game of life…I don't make the rules
Shiiit So that's why I get twisted…So I can't feel it when it hits me
And my moms don't need that on her
But I see death around the corner
And if he…so happens to make his way around the block
You gotta answer the door when he knock…Believe that
