Lil’ O, Z-Ro - Ooh Wee lyrics
[Lil’ O, Z-Ro - Ooh Wee lyrics]
Lord, have mercy, mercy
Lord have mercy, mercy
Ooh wee, dear lord I don't want that to be me
Another black boy in the penitentiary
So many fall victim to these evil streets
And it just makes me say ooh wee
Even though life is hard
I walk through the thunderstorm
Knowing there's a god
And when trouble comes he'll be my shield
And my sword strike down my foes
But, I feel sorry for the ones that
Don't have god and don't know
Inhale the weed through my mouth
Exhale out my nose
I've seen many niggas fell
Chasing money and clothes
Look in the game, cause the block feeds us
Chasing blood money
That's why we block bleeders
We grew up hating the police
Cause the cops beat us
And now we grown full of
Hate and we got heaters
And what a wicked combination
Cause now a nigga out of control
And we ain't trying to hear shit
About we on the wrong road
We always got to catch a case
And the jail cell close
For a nigga just like us
Got to fill us with holes and ain't it cold
Cause we suppose to stick to the trend
Even though the trend is dying or
Ending up in the penn but
Ooh wee, dear lord I don't want that to be me
Another black boy in the penitentiary
So many fall victim to these evil streets
And it just makes me say
Ooh wee dear lord I don't want that to be me
Another black boy in the ground six feet deep
So many fall victim to these evil streets
And it just makes me say ooh wee
You tell me how you take the pain out
When you hear your partner just
Blew his brians out
You see the pressure of these
Streets it make you crazy
And everybody say they love you huh
But everybody shady
And all the youngsters got babies
With mouths to feed
But all the youngsters dropped out
They ain't got no degree
Cause these youngsters chasing cars
And material things
But all the youngsters ain't thinking about
The pain it could bring
I lost soul on the block
I will walk the streets
Going so hard on my grind, I forgot to eat
I can't forget the day my partner
Got knocked off his feet
By a dopefiend with a gauge trying
To rob him for cheese
I saw the fear in his eyes
He knew he'd been shot and
His leg was paralyzed
They had to amputate his legs that's when
I realized how raw could be
And living life in these streets
Cause it wasn't for me, cause
Dear father up in heaven have mercy on us
Protect us from these evil streets
That be murdering us
Protect us from these crooked cops
That put burden on us
Protect us from these heartless DA's
That put hurting on us
Protect us from ourselves
Some of us don't know no better
Thinking that a life of crime the
Only way to get cheddar
Protet us from our jealousy and
Our lust for power
Knowing the devil walk the street
Seeking room to devour
I ain't really got no friends
Cause all my real dogs are in
The grave or in the pen
They left when they was boys
I won't see them till they men
And then my little partner man
He just signed for ten
Where does the drama end
I put money on they books to
Try to ease they pain
Praying to the lord hoping
They find peace again
And I give thanks for my life
Knowing so meet they end i'ma survive
Stay alive and keep my ass out the penn cause
I don't want to end up in jail
I don't want to end up in the penn
I don't want to end up in the ground
I don't want to end up like my friends
I don't want that to be me
Lord have mercy, mercy
Ooh wee, dear lord I don't want that to be me
Another black boy in the penitentiary
So many fall victim to these evil streets
And it just makes me say ooh wee
Even though life is hard
I walk through the thunderstorm
Knowing there's a god
And when trouble comes he'll be my shield
And my sword strike down my foes
But, I feel sorry for the ones that
Don't have god and don't know
