First We Pray

Black people don't have no, no where to go
You know, all we got to do is kick it
We gonna kick it in our hood, you know
What we gonna do?We might we go kill a couple of niggas, man
You know, go in they hood and do a drive-by
Then come back in the hood and laugh about that stuff
You know, it's just a thingOnly thing you really gonna get deep into it
Is when one of your friend die
Just like when my partnas diedWe got some problems
How do you solve those?First we pray then we ride
First we pray then we rideHe was my brother, loved him like no other
To top it off, I introduced him to this game
I knew his mother, loved her like my mother
A part of me is gone, 'bout take my brother homeWhat're ya gonna do when the trials come
Are ya gonna run? Are you gonna run?
What're ya gonna do? First, I'm gonna pray
Are ya gonna run? You muthafuckin' rightFirst we pray then we ride
First we pray then we rideI ain't got nuthin' but love for you locs and hogs
And I ain't got nuthin' but love for my muthafuckin' dogs
In the midst of the war zone, it's on, on site
Daylight tonight, the heat held close and tightBeware, here I come with the DPG on my chest
Heat gonna spit like Elliot Ness
In the darkest zone, you feel alone and on your own
And after I bust, niggas call me Kurupt CorleoneAll I'm about is money, loot and cash
Homies in the DPG, Nate, Snoop and Daz
Now with these emotions, how you approach yourself
Knowin' you all about your wealth and as it is to healthFirst I pray, get my thoughts intact
Ask for forgiveness 'cause I'm 'bout to lay this nigga flat
Can you adapt, can you feel me? I doubt it
'Cause the closest you see it is when niggas write about itI can't live without it and it ain't shit I could do
But stay down with the homies in gray and blue
So just keep the heat close in hand
'Cause I done see niggas get shit while they homeboys ranHeavenly Father, shine Your light on me
I know I promised to slow down on this weed
Seems I remember someone used to say
One life gets taken if you take one life awayWhat're ya gonna do when the trials come
Are ya gonna run? Are you gonna run?
What're ya gonna do? First I'm gonna pray
Are ya gonna run? You muthafuckin' rightFirst we pray then we ride
First we pray then we ride
First we pray then we ride
First we pray then we rideFirst we pray then we ride
