If I Hadn't Been Blessed Lyrics - Gospel

Liv-in' in the ghet-to wasn-n't much fun; 

Not ma-ny trees, and no-where to run. 

I nev-er knew my dad-dy, 

And he nev-er knew me. 

Liv-in' in a world of knives and guns, 

It's hard to know when to trust some-one. 

And when your mom-ma's up fly-ing high, 

All you can do is pray she does-n't die. 

If God had-n't stay-ed and stood by me 

On-ly the dev-il would know where I'd be. 

My life would be no-thing but a great big mess 

If it was-n't for God and if I hadn't been bless-ed. 

My life was rough, but I pull-ed through. 

I lived a life, you wouldn't want for you, 

I said my pray-ers,and made some plans. 

I wash-ed dir-ty dish-es, and scrubb-ed some pans.

If God had-n't stay-ed and stood by me, 

On-ly the dev-il would know where I'd be. 

My life would be no-thing, but a great big mess 

If it was-n't for God and if I hadn't been bless-ed.
