Voli Contra, J. Cole, Omen - Pity lyrics

God help the hungry children
Help the homeless children
Help them to survive the
World they can't understand
Yeah, sip of this ma'fuckin' drink
God help the child who's needy
Who needs love not pity lean back, volatile
Help them to survive this
Cold and bitter land yeah
Yeah, hey

Is this the life that You chose for me?
Is this the life that You chose for me?
Is this the dice that was rolled for me?
I won't cry about it, I won't cry about it
Is this the life that You chose for me, Lord?
Is this the life that You chose for me?
Is this the dice that You rolled for me?
Yeah, yeah

This is The Ville, home of the fast-lifers


Where we get high and don't come down
We gas prices man, I wonder how hard to
Live my past life was
'Cause this one hard, I could
Show you my scars, i ain't cryin' though
Ayy, save that pity for the next man
Or that girl getting beatdown by her ex man
Ayy, hold your head, mama, I know
You wish that nigga dead, mama
If I can find a way to kill him
I won't have nar' drama
Damn mama, tell me who you love
This one is for the boy that
See his mama on drugs
I feel your pain, boy, and just
Know I been through the same, boy
That lady need you more than
Ever, don't be ashamed, boy
'Cause when it rained, boy
That was your umbrella
The one that changed your pissy sheets
When you was a young fella
And now she in the bedroom on her knees
Staring at the sky, screaming "Lord
Please,!" Tell me now:

Is this the life that You chose for me?
Is this the life that You chose for me?
Is this the dice that You rolled for me?
I won't cry about it, I won't cry about it
Is this the life that You chose for me, Lord?
Is this the life that You chose for me?
Is this the dice that was rolled for me?
I won't cry about it, I won't cry about it

It's like soon as you cling on my
Mind's sayin' "be gone"
I leave 'em with wrinkled foreheads
They now Klingons
Confused, 'cause friendship's abused and
I'm sorry for it
My life performance been trifling
Sometimes I fight my conscience
Was never given spades
But I always had the heart
Always misplayin' the hand that was
Dealt the joker cards
Is what I was feelin' like, lonely
Low energy
Fallin' slow, clinically, ballin'? No
But we finna be don't pity me ever
Even when them haters answerin'
Mind state of the victor, no victim
I'm just a champion
Money comin' slow, God, intervene
Spirit's never broken, I'm just
Focused, don't pity me, no no no
You see this pain put a
Strain on my whole life i seen the rain
Seen my dreams turn to long nights
But all I ask is don't pity me, no, no
Don't pity me, no, no, don't pity me, no, no
No

Is this the life that You chose for me?
Is this the life that You chose for me?
Is this the dice that You rolled for me?
I won't cry about it, I won't cry about it
Is this the life that You chose for me, Lord?
Is this the life that You chose for me?
Is this the dice that was rolled for me?
I won't cry about it, I won't cry about it
Hey, I can't cry about it
Nuh, gotta be strong, can't cry about it
Hey, uh

Yeah and I
Freestyle life, can barely write the rent
Yearly income can barely keep this
Music life in check call up mama
"Hate to borrow money with Christmas near
Hey, you know what, how 'bout we make each
Other gifts this year?"
Friends are calling me up
Asking me if I'm signed yet
Who I'm working with? Am I
Making dollar signs yet?
Disappointment within their voices -
Do they pity me?
Disbelief - I'ma stay driven
Like them city streets but ah
It seems like every day is rainy weather
Can barely fit my pain and
Pride beneath the same umbrella
But he don't care, he don't care
It's hard to keep em dry
No more caterpillar
Now you see him change: peeping Tom
Yeah, this life will flash before your eyes
So get your match before your
Fire turns to ash, no more drive
No more gas, before you cry, get your last
Before you die
Live your past with no regrets
Broken necks, no looking back, man

Is this the life that You chose for me?
Is this the life that You chose for me?
Is this the dice that You rolled for me?
I won't cry about it, I won't cry about it
Is this the life that You chose for me, Lord?
Is this the life that You chose for me?
Is this the dice that was rolled for me?
Yeah!
