( Intro )

As I went down in the river to pray

Studying about that good old way

And who shall wear the starry crown

Good Lord, show me the way !





( Verse 1 )

I sitting alone in the dark feeling hopeless

Now I slowly sleeping into the darkness 

I fighting for my life, It's my only ability

Lord doezn't help me, Becuz I'm guilty

Living as a sinner, God Bless me....

Should I get on my knees

band my handz and start to pray?

I don't think so 

Cuz god can't help me anyway

Will I get the chance to live and see the next day

What should I do ?

I'm just saying what I feel

Now they keep on attackin' me without no reason...

I couldn't just stand there 

And take shit and stare I did selfdefence, 

Lord are you there?

My lord, I know that you ignoring me

I ain't complety blind I can see

Plez god.... 

Give me some diresctions once again

I think my fall iz the devils plan

I have never ever

Hurt an innocent man even If I can

I'm not doin' it my whole life

Have been basiced in one big game

All I ever felt was pressure and pain

( Verse 2 )

I close my eyez

Picture back in the old days

In those membories I want forever stay

Tell the whole world 

I'm guility to be in agez ey there..

I can never be the greatest

Lord take me to another peaceful place before its to late..

Here I just see the black devils face full of hate

I walked the right way

The way to heavenz stair

I missed one step and failed the lord doezn't care

My whole life basiced on sins

what can you do those days?  

We killing eath other all falling into the hell's caves

We all becoming the victims of the devil's slaves

I living in my own living hell the one called earth

I felt nuthin' but pain ever since mah own birth

One day mah blood gone run the streets in a race

I shouldn't get born in the first place

In worse ways some timez I wonder if I'm God'z son

Or Satan's creation I know its sounds crazy 

But the only reason I live is for my baby

I'm fallin' to the floor

Beging the lord to let me into heavenz door

Can't take it anymore if I Live to morning 

And see the sun plz forgive me for sinz 

For there I Come...
