[Pat Stay , Brandy Callahan - Save Me lyrics]
Uh, yeah pat Stay, sucka!
Dear God, I wonder, can you save me?
(scratching)
Dear God, I wonder, can you save me?
I think it's too late for praying, hold up
Dear God, I wonder can you save me?
(scratching)
Dear God, I wonder, can you save me?
Dear God, I wonder, can you save me?
Uh, yeah, you know, Mr "Sucka Free"
It's been a while
Y'all wondering what's up with me?
Ain't nothing sweet, but I stayed positive
And thanked God 'cause life is a gift
But it ain't promised
So, I learn to appreciate life
I'm lucky to be alive
And thankful I'm able to sleep good at night
That sounds soft, huh? It's like I'm
Trying to preach to you, right?
See, y'all people are blind
I'm just speaking my mind
Look, I don't go to church
But I believe in God
He's helped me through some real shit
That's too personal to speak upon
See, us people only learn from
Stuff that we do wrong or when someone dies
And it hurts for us to see them gone
And then you try to cover your tracks
With stuff that you've done in the past
But you can't take none of it back
So, live life like it's your last day
'Cause sometimes just being alive's
A reason to celebrate
Not trying to say I lived perfectly
But I'm saying I do believe
That through ups and downs, don't help around
They keep trying to kick me down
But I have the answer
Dear God, I wonder, can you save me?
They can say what they want 'bout me
(I don't care what they say about me)
I know who I'm destined to be
One day, they'll see (they're gonna see it)
They'll wish they could be
On the other side
And they'll wish they knew the answer
Dear God, I wonder, can you save me?
Couple friends passed, mad homies locked up
Just lost the love of my life
Got my heart crushed
Everything spinning in circles, I feel lost
But i changed my perspective on life
Through God's trust
And all the things I used
To be fascinated with now just make me sick
But the boys haven't changed a bit
Look, I'm still down
Homie! I ain't acting like a bitch!
But I'm a grown man now: I
Just had to make a switch
I'm legit! And trust me, it feels good!
Never been a thug
But I'm a legend in the hood
I seen my life flash in front
Of my eyes dozens of times
Type of shit that makes these average
Joes run for they lives
So, you gotta make a decision
Change the way that you're livin' and
Pave the way for your children
Or face your days out in prison
I ain't trippin'
Get in where you fit in, play your position
But I promise one day you'll be
Wishin' you had a listen
Not trying to say I lived perfectly
(not trying to say I'm perfect)
But I'm saying I do believe
That through ups and downs, don't help around
They keep trying to kick me down
But I have the answer
Dear God, I wonder, can you save me?
They can say what they want 'bout me
(I don't care what they say about me)
I know who I'm destined to be
(I know who I am) one day, they'll see
They'll wish they could be
On the other side
And they'll wish they knew the answer
Dear God, I wonder, can you save me?
See, y'all don't expect this from me
Thought jail's where I was destined to be
In the pen, sentenced for catching a breach
But instead
My pen sentence is sending direct
Messages to kids who I look at
And see a reflection of me
'Cause God's given me the blessing to teach
This new generation's too hard
Headed to reach
'Less you been in the same position
Kids just ain't gonna listen
Like, "Who is you to be lecturing me?"
Look, I been there, done that
Got mad respect in the streets
But fuck that! Look
You don't wanna end up like me
'Cause every night I stress
Wishing I'd have went for my dream
And became the star I never knew
I had potential to be
I wasted so many years, drank so many beers
To overcome fears
Just so it wouldn't show I was scared
I'm on my knees, God, please
Console me through prayers
Just show me you're there
'cause you're my only real homie that cares!
I'm going crazy!
Not trying to say I lived perfectly
(not trying to say I'm perfect)
But I'm saying I do believe
(but I believe in you, Lord)
That through ups and downs, don't help around
(they don't wanna help me, they're
Trying to push me around, yeah)
They keep trying to kick me down
But I have the answer
Dear God, I wonder, can you save me?
They can say what they want 'bout me
(I don't care what they say about me)
I know who I'm destined to be
(I know who I am)
One day, they'll see (they're gonna see it)
They'll wish they could be
On the other side
And they'll wish they knew the answer
Dear God, I wonder, can you save me?
