[Chorus]
But to be quite honest, it is what it is
Got a lot on my pendant, I got some Hen' in my fridge
I got a life in the balance, and shorty just slid
I woke up at five just to pray that I ain't make no kids
I ain't prayed in a minute, been praying on the new come up
My momma prayers been workin', I got a whole new position

[Verse]
They throwin' contracts at me, prayin' on the percentage
Prayin' for some sinnin', 'cause those nights tend to lead to more writtens, which I need
To help me elevate my digits
So my momma can pray in a house paid for by her children
Where she retired and chillin'
I'm tired of paying for conditioning
Enough air in the tank to change my condition
Cool out my youngins too, 'cause you know, it's hot where they living
Praying over bottles we sipping, and God bless the nights that we get into for the liquor and women
Half the bottle gone, damn, thinkin' God I'm forgiven
Woke up, no hangover, I'm thanking God for the feelin'
On the cusp of damn near feelin' sacrilegious
So I pray for more vision, to see through false opinions
Pray to understand the cost of living, more than that of material
More in the lighter the man, rather thoughts that's cynical
And that love is plentiful, and not only for imbeciles
And at the pinnacle of a man is when he shows that he cares
And not by the power that's show whenever he's feared
Choose to be the truth whether sober or you impaired
Pray equity and to be fair
Go together like barber and chair or like clippers in hair
Pray to not take one step forward and three steps back like falling upstairs
My mans said he pray a lot but he hardly hears anything back
He think God deaf or either that or he hardly there
I told him that the answer's already there, like the teachers gave you
No study guides, just sayin' look at your notes
You gotta have some preparations just in order to hope
He said he pray to be like me, man I pray that he don't
'Cause all my prayers turning capitalistic
Praying for money to be the answer, like money'll fix it
Like money gonna help me make better decisions
Man I still pray for a heart made of gold instead of some for my dentals
Pray to fix my flaws but instead I put them on instrumentals
I should be praying for clarity to help me solve my problems
But instead I'm praying for some of the reasons that I've got them
Should be praying for clarity to help me stop my problems
But instead I'm praying for some of the reasons why I got them
[Chorus]
But to be quite honest, it is what it is (I need you to love me, love me, love me)
Got a lot on my pendant, I got some Hen' in my fridge
I got a life in the balance, and shorty just slid (I need you to love me, love me, love me)
I wake up at five just to pray that I ain't make no kids
Man, I ain't prayed in a minute, been praying on the new come up (I need you to love me, love me, love me)
My momma prayers been workin', I got a whole new position
I got a whole new position (I need you to love me, love me, love me)
I got a whole-
Damn

[Outro]
For all that I am (That I am)
And all that I'm not (That I'm not)
For all that I am (That I am )
And all that I got (That I got)
For all that I am (That I am)
And all that I'm not (That I'm not)
For all that I am (That I am )
And all that I got (That I got)
You know in a capitalist society, freedom is rooted around money to people, you know what I'm saying
You mean, that's what it is
The funny thing for me though, it wasn't until I, you know realized that I'm like bro
That's not freedom for me
