I look to the sky, 'cause I know it's my limit
That's why I live how I live, Ya betta believe it
That I don't go chasin', hazily dreamin'
That I don't live under a big glass ceilin'
I know one day that my time will come
But when it does come, I will not run
I know there's a million things they could say
But I won't wait, for this is my judgment day
Too many livin' hard press
Livin' life and livin' it lifeless
Doin' what others say follow the trend
For that I just brush it to the wind
Wanting to know where the next mix is
Instead of how can I fix - this
World (my life is in shambles)
Seein' life's more than just a gamble
To look in my heart, to look inside
Seein' that I got too much pride
That I can never be just like you
Showin' the world you're its fool
Turnin' your back from the ones that care
But I must warn ya to beware
That you'll never find anything in the club
For you're not hated, but-cha won't be loved
I look to the sky, 'cause I know it's my limit
That's why I live how I live, Ya betta believe it
That I don't go chasin', hazily dreamin'
That I don't live under a big glass ceilin'
I know one day that my time will come
But when it does come, I will not run
I know there's a million things they could say
But I won't wait, for this is my judgment day
This is the day that I gotta make a change
Please dear God come and help me with the rain
Please dear God come and take away my pain
Because I can't stand livin' my life this way
I know that I've messed up a time or two
And if I say I haven't I'd be lyin' to you
But please dear God forgive me for my sins
All the things that I did and bad places that I've been
I know that you can hear me now
Cryin' out for help while I'm fallen down
I need you to pull me back up
'Cause my luck's ran out and I'm pretty much f*cked
I know that you can help me out
Lord please, please just help me now
Get me away from this life that you've dealt me
Lord please, can you help me?
I look to the sky, 'cause I know it's my limit
That's why I live how I live, Ya betta believe it
That I don't go chasin', hazily dreamin'
That I don't live under a big glass ceilin'
I know one day that my time will come
But when it does come, I will not run
I know there's a million things they could say
But I won't wait, for this is my judgment day
Ya know that I look to the sky
And that I gotta cross, cross that line
For if I don't then where will I be
Just like the last 13 that you can't see
The past, the present, the future they hold
The greatest stories that were never told
If my life's gotta be that way then
So be it, I'll still fight till the end
For I'm willing to put my life on the line
Ya hate me? Go on... (heh) Don't deny
I'll still fight for you, it's the man in me
I'll fight on the land, the air, and the sea
Ya know I'll fight, fight through the night
Even if it means fighting till I see that bright light
I won't turn life away, put it on a shelf
For after God I only answer to myself
I look to the sky, 'cause I know it's my limit
That's why I live how I live, Ya betta believe it
That I don't go chasin', hazily dreamin'
That I don't live under a big glass ceilin'
I know one day that my time will come
But when it does come, I will not run
I know there's a million things they could say
But I won't wait, for this is my judgment day
Our Father, Who art in heaven
Hallowed be Thy Name
Thy kingdom come
Thy will be done
On earth as it is in heaven
Give us this day our daily bread
And forgive us our trespasses
As we forgive those who trespass against us
And lead us not into temptation
But deliver us from evil
Amen
