[Hook: Danni]
If I should die, before I wake, I pray to Lord
My soul I take, if I should die before I wake
If I should die, if I should die-eee
If I should die (pray to lord) if I should die
[Verse 1: Uptown XO]
Don't you cry if I go, know what I did this for
Where did my spirit go? Right next to Martin and Malcolm
They hear the flow, know when the speakers don't
Project this sh** from a perspective like this
I don't care what the others do, who the f** is you?
I'm down to die for what I stand for, what is you?
Just a follower, bullets, hollow top
Snipers popping shots, profits getting popped
On the outside looking in, talking to a box
That's my brothers, and hope you hear my cry
If you don't question what you know,what is a lie?
And this speaking up for my people, suicide
We start right there, n***a park right there
Before we ride, the direction has to be clear
Seat beat fastened? Yea, now it's time to ride
Rough, so you know we'd rather die, die
[Hook]
[Verse 2:Uptown XO]
Bury me a G, next to 2Pac and Biggie, Heavy D
Freaky Tah, Big Pun, Left Eye, and Whitney
I ain't got to say sh** that I did for my city
Everybody know what I did for my city
Settle beef, live for a purpose that's worthless
What are we? Here on this earth for a purchase?
Higher than the bullsh**. The preacher, the pulpit
I am not here to forfeit my freedom to foreigners
I need the people uplifted on corners I come from, not just children
Add the circumference. That's TC, London, Africa, Russia
Even the sails in your heart want music to touch up
Smoking that ganja, inspired by Bob Marley
Know that one day I'll leave, but I won't go quietly
More than a hustler spirit inside of me
Not putting my life on the line would be cowardly!
[Hook]
[Outro]:
Lord Take my soul (4x)
Ohhhhh (3x)
Lord Take my soul (5x)
Ohhhhh (3x)
