Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Make sure you put the autotune on
[Verse 2]
If I could talk to God like a real ****, one one one, I'd tell Him
Need my homeboys back, and a couple **** that's jailin'
Couple **** convicted felons
I like the church, but I don't trust the reverend
So I been absent, and in my presence
And am I wrong if I bring my weapon?
Yeah, I said my prayers, I ain't got my blessin
I'm still stressin', so I'm finessin'
Ain't holdin' back, these are my confessions
[Verse 3]
If I could talk to God like a real ****, one one one, I'd ask Him
I see my career goin' to the next level, but my mind goin' backwards
I can't shake the street shit, still on the beef shit
Every time I try to do the right thing
**** think I'm on some sweet shit
Then I had to get them choppers out again
I tried to retire, Lord
Forgive me for my sins, once and once again
Somebody got to die, Lord
I'm like, why, Lord?
They think I'm blood, they think I'm vice, Lord
I'm overthinkin' shit 'cause I'm paranoid like my homeboys
Is it right, Lord? Are they foul, Lord?
Real shit, I'll take 'em out, Lord
[Verse 4]
If I could talk to God one one one, like a real ****, I'd say
Lord, will you please keep me far away from the fake?
Lord, can you teach me? Please show me the way
Lord, can you teach me? Please show me the way, yeah
[Verse 5]
Lil' daughter seen me with a strap, ask me, "Daddy, what is that?"
Lil' son asked me 'bout Cecil, told him he ain't comin' back
My bitch came and asked me why we had to buy a bulletproof
Told 'em, gangster, baby, one thing about it is I ain't bulletproof
Never hire security 'cause I ain't know what they gon' do or not
Wonderin', is they gon' shoot or not?
Interview like, "How many is you done shot?"
Old lady in the neighborhood said I'm the devil, she a damn liar
See me bustin' that fire, tryna protect the guys from the other side
Ma'am, I love these lil' **** like they my brothers
And if any **** come and touch 'em, I swear to God it'd crush me
I can't let it happen, 'fore I ever started rappin'
All the shit I be talkin' 'bout, I was doin' this shit in the hood
With all the **** I be talkin' 'bout
[Verse 6]
If I could talk to God like a real ****
Ask Him, please give me back Cecil
Please give me Big G, and Poochy D. Pinot, 'cause shit hurt, Lord
I ain't over it, when the tears come, it be pourin'
I know this rap shit my blessin', but I ain't in hood, shit be gettin' borin'
I'm so used to hustlin', I'm so used to thuggin'
I don't know how to ignore it
Grab all my chains, jump in the Lambo, and just floor it, vroom
[Verse 7]
If I could talk to God one one one, like a real ****, I'd say
Lord, will you please keep me far away from the fake?
Lord, can you teach me? Please show me the way
Lord, can you teach me? Please show me the way, yeah
[Verse 8]
I used to pray to God to get a million dollars and a Bentley truck
When I was dead broke, I ain't have a dollar and I ain't give a fuck
I done ran off on the plug twice, he ain't pickin' up
When we run into him, I'ma put it to him like give it up
Run it, my ****, we so one hundred my ****, it's only a few of us
Talkin' to God, just tryna decide if life really meant for the two of us
'Cause **** is shady, I tuck the 380
He thought I was slippin', I tore him up
Snap on a ****, no warm up
I got the A and I pour it up
Touchin' your city, no tour bus
Diamonds they drippin' like water
Have it your way like it's Burger King
****, can I take your order?
We sellin' work like it's Medellin
I'm turnin' three in the four-door
Watch for the D's and the tourists
Prayin' we never get caught up, God bless
[Verse 9]
If I could talk to God one one one, like a real ****, I'd say
Lord, will you please keep me far away from the fake?
Lord, can you teach me? Please show me the way
Lord, can you teach me? Please show me the way, yeah
