Praying For Help Lyrics - Urban Legend - T.i.

(T.I. Prayin) Intro 

Our Father 

Who are in heaven 

Hollowed be thy name 

Thy kingdom come 

Thy will be done 

On earth as it is in Heaven 

Give us this day our daily bread 

And forgive us for our trespasses 

As we forgive those who trespass against us 

Lead us not into temptation 

But deliver us from evil 

For thine is the kingdom, the power, and the glory 

For ever, and ever

(Verse 1) 

Man I'm prayin for help 

While I'm lookin at the life I left 

It's kinda hard not to hate myself 

But quiet is kept right or wrong 

It's just the way I felt 

I might be better of prayin for death 

On my knees I knelt 

Still trying to find a way to accept 

It ain't a way I can help nobody 

Till I save myself 

Technically I'm still a slave myself 

I gotta climb out the grave myself 

Man I played myself 

But when I look at all the fans I touched 

I ask how can a man that's done so much 

Be treated so unjust 

Cause I'm tryin to inspire da folks 

Wanna condemn cause they sell dope 

Well man show em the ropes 

Be a father a football coach a role model or a symbol of hope 

Take another approach 

Instead of testifying against em in court 

Handcuffin em and closin the door so they can be worse than before 

Can't you see they only do what they know 

Then you wonder why they don't care no more 

Life ain't fair I know 

But why I'm hated everywhere I go 

Next time you wanna compare my flow just know 

I'm prayin for help... 

(Chorus) 

Askin somebody else to give me a hand 

I'm tryin hard but I'm only a man (man) 

I'm prayin for help 

Hopin somebody else can see what I see 

It's like the hood only matter to me they got me 

(Prayin for help) 

Hopin somebody else can carry the torch 

I'm all alone with no kinda support 

(While I) was prayin for help 

Realized I don't need nobody else 

If God with me I can do it myself 

(Tired of just prayin for help) 

(Verse 2) 

I know it's only one king 

One thing, one being, only something I believe 

Without seein and with all my faith 

I pray somehow, someway regardless of what anyone say 

I believe one day that imma change my life 

Get right, start livin like Christ, till the end of my fight 

Imma be defending my strife, till somebody come and shut off my lights 

I ain't never gone quit 

No matter how difficult is gone get 

And you can bet whatever on this 

I'm forever gone spit 

Harder than niggaz hatin on TIP 

You can take the weight and place it on TIP 

I'll double my load carry it as the trouble unfolds 

Hold yos and I bet I don't fold 

Put that on my soul 

If it takez till I'm 100 years old 

Bet I'm reachin every one of my goals 

You know I'm prayin for help... 

(Chorus) 

Askin somebody else to give me a hand 

I'm tryin hard but I'm only a man (man) 

I'm prayin for help 

Hopin somebody else can see what I see 

It's like the hood only matter to me they got me 

(Prayin for help) 

Hopin somebody else can carry the torch 

I'm all alone with no kinda support 

(While I) was prayin for help 

Realized I don't need nobody else 

If God with me I can do it myself 

(Tired of just prayin for help) 

(Verse 3) 

So many times I done wish that I could change my mind 

Change my life and leave the game behind 

And it's been so many days 

I done prayed I could find a way 

Find the heart and the time to say 

Only so many are blessed with 

So many chances, so many checks 

So many fans with so many arrests 

And it's been so many deaths 

So many prisons with niggaz in there 

And the system keep playin them to the left 

Man its so many test so many haters love seein you stress 

But tribulations come with being the best 

Still there's so many reflects, singin bout Tecs 

Winnin, green and the trickz? 

Sellin dreams that never seen in the jex? 

That's why I'm seen as a threat 

So many stripes off the streets in my vest 

So many rappers get so little respect 

Man niggaz faith on the shelf 

Cause of the cards that a nigga was dealt 

Or the hard that a nigga done dealt 

So many niggaz that left 

Out of the hood 

Made a way for theyself 

Instead of givin back they stay for theyself 

So many playin theyself 

Instead of reading educating theyselves 

The ones who won't pray for theyself, they got me 

Prayin for help... 

(Chorus) 

Askin somebody else to give me a hand 

I'm tryin hard but I'm only a man (man) 

I'm prayin for help 

Hopin somebody else can see what I see 

It's like the hood only matter to me the got me 

(Prayin for help) 

Hopin somebody else can carry the torch 

I'm all alone with no kinda support 

(While I) was prayin for help 

Realized I don't need nobody else 

If God with me I can do it myself 

(Tired of just prayin for help) 

(Refrain) 

Askin somebody else to give me a hand 

I'm tryin hard but I'm only a man (man) 

I'm prayin for help 

Hopin somebody else can see what I see 

It's like the hood only matter to me the got me 

(Prayin for help) 

Hopin somebody else can carry the torch 

I'm all alone with no kinda support 

(While I) was prayin for help 

Realized I don't need nobody else 

If God with me I can do it myself 

(Tired of just prayin for help) 

Prayin for help 

Prayin for help
