It's a dirty dirty world
And I should've been praying
I guess I should've been praying
I think I should've been
It's a very dirty world
And I should've been praying
Yes I should've been praying
More, more
I pray the Lord can forgive me
For showing up to heavens gate
Bag stuffed with dead weight
My luggage, filled with grudges-and demons I carry with me
Just hoping he don't descend me
Done hoping I don't offend them
They hoping I don't remember
I remember though
Like Simba in 94'
Way back like 64'
Cooking Ramen on the stove
Just hoping a man would show
I don't mean to question
But is heavens timing this slow and
Why'd you keep Noah afloat
And if the intent was to cleanse the world
Then why'd you leave sin on the boat
And if you have to take a life
Then why did my grandma have to go
I need to know
Lord, Why you take the sweetest souls
Put my dawg in that mode
Let a racist win the vote
Shipping children up the road in crates
It's all weighing
Heavy like spitting eighteen
Ain't cried since I was eighteen
The look in her eyes was all, so relating
When she told me she was my sister
And she turned... damn
Having Lunch with moms tryna sort through it all
Think she happy spending time with her son
Plus now she gets to use that BOGO coupon
She into saving so she just keep on saying don't lose connection Gods amazing
She helped me realize
I spent more time on my knee engaging
Than I ever spent praying. Thank you Mama
It's a dirty dirty world
And I should've been praying
I guess I should've been praying
I think I should've been
It's a very dirty world
And I should've been praying
Yes I should've been praying
More, more
Took the news hard, had a lot on my plate
Had to sit down with moms to help me carry the weight
On top of that found out you cheated and
It hit me like coke
That Bobby and Whitney
But nothing was dope
The shit was sickening
Your blueprint was leaving red flags
And the funny thing is you kept on checking my bag
They say "when somebody over accusing, then they doing just that"
So I can't go with my heart, I got to go with the facts
Sometimes
Hearts break
Earths quake
It's common
Chances we take in love is common
So I skipped the watch and bought you diamonds
It was always just you and not the timing
Thought I'd make it through the track
Without callin' you out ya' name
But that bitch hit a lil harder when it's surrounded with pain
Look here bitch
You lost a real one and my feelings now have changed
Thought even if we weren't together
My love was never gone change
No more benefits of the doubt
Third time striking out
Third time telling lies like, "I was with my ex but I slept on the couch"
Would've took a couple bullets for you
Now I see in the end
I dodge some bullets with you
It's a lesson and a blessing
I never said "I do"
Now I'm gone be your only ex who ain't f*cking with you, I should've been
It's a dirty dirty world
And I should've been praying
I guess I should've been praying
I think I should've been
It's a very dirty world
And I should've been praying
Yes I should've been praying
More, more
