[Raheem DeVaughn, Doug E. Fresh, Mike Phillips, The Colleagues - Lawd Help Me lyrics]
It's the GOAT (Lord, Lord, Lord, Lord, Lord)
I always say every superhero has a superpower
Every artist has a specific gift
They have their own way of approaching it
And to me, it seem like the way that
You're approachin' it you know
and I watched your vocal style evolve to
The point that it is now
So I feel like, you know
You have really defined you know
What energy you bringing to the table
You know, I hear, I hear
I see babies filled with
Bullets from a drive-by (Drive-by, uh, yeah)
Another hashtag, seen another mama cry
(Black-on-black crime)
It seem like еver since, uh
The Birth of a Nation
Wе've been treated lesser than
And denied reparations (Right, right)
It make me wanna flip
They tamper with my vote
I call it politricks
Disrespect our life with a stop and frisk
And kill the Black man in 8: 46
A sign of the times, the mark of the beast
'Til there's justice, there'll be no peace
(Woo)
Oh, Lord, Most High, help me (Uh, uh)
Oh, Lord, Lord, Lord, Lord, Lord
There's lead in the water
And polluted clouds, lord
(Lord, Lord) recession and depression
Unemployment's on the rise
(But, I feel for that connection
With you, though) , yeah (yeah)
But, I feel your presence
So I'm staying faithful
Yeah, I wipe the ashes off
The Scriptures of Exodus (yeah)
It make me wanna sing
'Cause nobody knows the trouble
That I've seen
I'm not your nigga, I was born a king
I've been a G and I vibrate higher
It make me wanna flip
They tamper with my vote
I call it politricks
Disrespect our life with a stop and frisk
And kill the Black man in 8: 46
A sign of the times, the mark of the beast
(yeah)
'Til there's justice, there'll be no peace
(Woo)
Oh, Lord
(Help me, show me) , Most High, help me
Oh, Lord, Lord, Lord, show me the way
(Help me) , help me
(I said, oh, Lord) Most High (Lord, help me)
Protect the innocence of beautiful children
(I said, oh, Lord, Lord, Lord) , hey hey
I said (Help me) from the evil
(I said, oh, Lord) that they do
Do, do, do, do, do, do, do (Help me)
In a world of hunger and starvation
Help every continent (Help me) , yeah
(I said, oh, Lord) And every
Nation (Lord, help me) , yeah
(I said, oh, Lord, Lord
Lord) 'Cause the world
Is still, uh, a beautiful place where
I (Help me) but when I see Mother Nature
(I said, oh, Lord) , then I
Smoke all my trees, yeah, yeah (Help me)
I said Lord, Lord, Lord
In the name of America, in the name of Allah
(Help me) , huh (I said, oh Lord, Lord) yeah
In the name of Africa
(Lord, help me) , in the name of Jah, huh
(I said, oh, Lord, Lord
Lord) For a world of peace
A world of love (Help me) , oh oh

Me, help me, help me, lord
