Thug's Prayer

[Intro] Yeah, yeah, come on Peace my nigga That’s what I’m talkin’ about Shed a thug’s tear, say a thug prayer Put money in my mom’s hand [Verse 1: Roc Marciano] Yo, we took money, put ‘em under the study Went from skinny to chubby in the city that’s gully Back again, it’s the hideous, ugly gritty McGillicutty Put the squeeze on a nigga like Silly Putty Keep the arm chunky, fingers is heavy, plus (what else?) The ring sparkle in your grill like 7 Up In the Lexus truck, dressed up, word to Dapper Dan Gold bands on the hand like Shazam (damn!) Throw a thunderbolt, rappers will somersault (uh-huh) Pelle’s butter soft, crabs in butter sauce Perhaps let a couple off, skin bubble off Hustlin’ soft, up in the loft Ain’t no love lost (nah), just thug lords and drug wars (uh-huh) Big butt whores to crush raw (get ‘em) Hit dust blunts and eight-inch pumps Dick sucked, they ain’t make faces crunch, the clutch got paper cuts (ugh) Nothing is sacred to us, whether it be cake crust Grape nuts, no bacon deluxe As if niggas is duct taped up and mistaken for lunch My stomach been aching for months (come on) Hands shakin’ while I’m making this up, blazin’ a dutch Turning the pages in my book Where cocaine is cooked we stay put, slang drugs there We say a thug’s prayer [Bridge] Yeah, shed a thug’s tear, say a thug’s prayer [Verse 2: Roc Marciano] Uh, yeah, Monster Crack, remember that? We was young like Similac, hustle to get a stack Fuck giving back, ain’t nobody give me jack (nothin') So a couple niggas got jacked, bitches got smacked (come on) We was in black filling up gym bags Money spilling out, spinning out, quick, fast Live for the day, cause my time’ll come and pass (one day) Will I go out in a blast, or will I outlast? (I wonder) Niggas before me that found death early was done dirty And most were under 30 got hit in the jersey (damn) To call a man’s momma when he pass ain’t easy When she screaming “Lord have mercy!” (damn) Have you ever lost a close homie? And have to see him cold on a gurney? (hmm) You’re not alone on your journey Time heals all wounds, that’s what my nigga Zo told me But yet I still feel so lonely (thug’s prayer) [Bridge] Yeah, shed a thug’s tear, and say a thug’s prayer [Production by Roc Marciano]
