Lyrics For Dear God By PdotO
Intro]
Won’t you save me from myself?
[Verse 1]
I’m not here to sound angry, not here to sound ungrateful
But I’ve been fuming for years, some call me hateful
I’m grateful, yeah I’m grateful that I’m alive still
I’m capable of love still
I look to you above still
But Lord, look, the wait is killing
What I truly gotta do to make these motherfuckers witness me?
So they picture my work pif, I scribble liberty
I’m free from the enslavement that this industry done given me
Tell me who the best, I dare you, point em out to me
Tell me who better, creative behind their artistry
Hardly a flaw, the pen is peak, I carpe diem
Dear God, they wanna kill me in the Colosseum
They push hate, like they K-K-K
I K.O like I’m Cassius Clay
What I’m supposed to say?
Dear God, they gave me heart, with a bit of ice
You gave me death with a bit of life
Selling my soul for the asking price
Everyone know what I been rapping like
Everyone know when I’ve been snapping right?
So how the fuck they tryna push me back?
They tryna pull me back, they tryna prove me bad
I understand though, that…
They don’t understand me
I understand, these suckers don’t comprehend me
But I’m a man understand that my stance mean
Understand that I’m still king
Always told myself, that I’d never ever force it
If it’s gone it’s gone, maybe I lost it
Dear God, my letter please don’t ignore it
I’m sick and tired of all you niggas claim to be bosses
I’m sick and tired of this floss shit
Maybe I’m mad
I’m mad my brother an alcoholic
He’s still blood so I love him still
That’s my family, I love him real
But dear God, dear God
Won’t you save me from myself?
Should I blame it on myself? I done taken every step
I done written every rap
What the hell, you motherfuckers deaf? Oh well
Crooked world we live
Where niggas raping babies too
I think it’s high time we faced the truth
Maybe we lost as fuck, maybe we can’t escape
Maybe I talk too much but I hope that y’all relate
Dear Lord
When I tell you I’m the best, I believe it
When I tell you I’m a legend, I beleive it
When I tell you I’m the GOAT, please believe it
Believe me, ain’t nobody better, I done seen it
But calm down, put your pride aside
I know my God still reside inside, I follow God’s design
My heart aligned with the light
My God, insight what’s right
I’m writing life my God, my God
[Hook]
Dear God
Won’t you save me from myself?
Won’t you save me from myself?
I got the rope around my neck
Won’t you save me from myself?
Won’t you save me from myself?
Before I jump out the window, oh
I swear I’m finna jump out the window, oh oh
Won’t you save me from myself?
[Verse 2]
Used to spit saliva and juice fuse to rap shit
I’m usually the coolest in a room full of coon shit
Enthusiast, heart colder than Budapest
Used to hearing niggas arguing, bicker ’bout who the best
I’m using facts
Connect the dots, I’ll forever be a hungry nigga
I’ll never stop, cause I used to be a bummy nigga
We fuckin’ lost my nigga, y’all niggas lost
Xenophobia killing your people, y’all niggas gone
Mentally enslaved, you hate your skin, you hate yourself
You see yourself in your brother, that’s why you chasing death
Hol’ up, I’m not a preacher but my heart bleeds for you
I’m just praying that you see the truth
I ask please, dear God won’t you save me from myself?
I feel I got nobody left
This is not what I expected
Spirituality I feel neglected
I know you love me and I’m blessed still
My purpose is applied to the pressure that make me diamond
I’m deadly dedicated, can never die for the time being
I rhyme king, I swear to God I’m a rhyme king
You niggas know that I’m a rhyme fiend, sniffing lines
I’m therapy heavy, I’m feeling medicated
I know you motherfuckin’ devils pray I never make it
I stand in front of you God, I’m fully naked
Anticipate the hate in abundance but I don’t give a fuck
Couple of folk in my family don’t really wish me luck
Couple of bitches hit me, tryna get a nigga nut
Live it up, I looks to my God but I don’t know what’s up
I double up, downing the liquor tryna forget it but
Pray for me, my spirit heavy, my vision blurry
I’m ready for whatever, whatever the mission
Steady count your blessings
I’m feeling blessed but I’m restless
Bob Marley with a death wish, this is my best shit
[Hook]
Dear God
Won’t you save me from myself?
Won’t you save me from myself?
I got the rope around my neck
Won’t you save me from myself?
Won’t you save me from myself?
Before I jump out the window, oh
I swear I’m finna jump out the window, oh oh
Won’t you save me from myself?
[Refrain]
Won’t you save me from myself?
Won’t you save me from myself?
I got the rope around my neck
Won’t you save me from myself?
Won’t you save me from myself?
Before I jump out the window, oh, oh
I swear I’m finna jump out the window, oh oh
Won’t you save me from myself?
[Outro]
