When the sun goes down I bow my head and pray
For my family and sins and those who've pa**ed away
It truly amazes me the things that I've seen
And it seems so surreal 'cause it ain't make-believe
And best believe when you lose a loved one six feet deep
It'll tear you into two as you lay without sleep
Welcome to reality, what they said to me
But this d**h ain't no motherf**in' stranger to me
Grandmama says stare at the cross
When I'm filled with evil, when I'm out feelin' lost
'Cause I remember when I hit the bottom of the rock
And I looked up to the Lord and asking, "Would it ever stop?"
This hate and this gat, I'd rather love than live
Give back to my folks for all the things they've ever did
I express my love and I give thanks
To my moms and pops, I love you til my never-ending day
And I was placed here on earth to spread this message
You won't read the note I wrote until I end up where I'm headed.
When the sun goes down I bow my head and pray
For my family and sins and those who've pa**ed away
It truly amazes me the things that I've seen
And it seems so surreal 'cause it ain't make-believe.
When the sun goes down, it always seems to rise again
A new day is born, a new life to live
And I ain't got no dough, I just got some advice to give
If you fall on your a**, get up and try again
Make sure you love yourself before you die within
We all go through similar struggles
And it's hard to find the light when you livin' so subtle
How will I enjoy my life when I keep dinner with trouble?
I don't care what they have to say about me
'Cause I ain't got nothin' to prove
I used to be that low life with nothin' to lose
They kicked me when I was down and they spit on my shoes
Suicidal thoughts, I didn't know what to do
Then I prayed to God for answers, didn't know who else to turn to
Sick of people speakin' on that sh** that don't concern you
Have you ever loved somebody so bad it f**in' hurts you?
Searchin' for a better life but patience is a virtue
And I don't know how much longer I can wait
And I don't know how much more pain I can take
It's only a matter of time before I meet my fate
So I pray, and I pray, 'cause it's never too late
Ask God for forgiveness for your past mistakes
And heal the scars for family that pa**ed away
To help you see the light in the blackest days.
'Cause when the sun goes down it doesn't last a day.
Ask God for forgiveness for your past mistakes
Heal the scars for family that pa**ed away
To help you see the light in the blackest days
'Cause when the sun goes down it doesn't last a day, it doesn't last a day.
