My God

I was just choppin' up with my people the other day and shit
And these people who I know really love me, like
They be tellin' me some shit, I don't wanna hear sometimes, but other day they said (Helluva made this beat, baby)

Please, stay focused (stay focused), don't get tricked off the streets (no)
You know so many's dependin' on you
That shit be touchin' me, but I just be like, uh
I'm already knowin', I'm tryin' my best
I'm not perfect, believe me (believe me)

Yeah, God made me with flaws, put his name in my songs
Put my pain in his palms, my God (my God)
I'm gon' always stand tall through the rain and the storm
Don't leave me out here alone, my God (my God)

We went through shit at home, we grew up on our own (our own)
If you ain't come through when I needed you, don't call my phone (my phone)
Don't need no yes-man around me, tell me when I'm wrong (wrong)
I've been through way more than you been through, but you ain't know (but you ain't know)

I was sufferin' in silence, stuck to my plans
Nigga, play with me dyin', that's on my man (my man)
And it ain't even gon' take much, just like five bands (five band)
I be stayin' out the way, gotta be here for my fam'
They be tellin' me like

Please, stay focused (stay focused), don't get tricked off the streets (no)
You know so many's dependin' on you
That shit be touchin' me, but I just be like, uh
I'm already knowin', I'm tryin' my best (my best)
I'm not perfect, believe me (believe me)

They don't know about the shit we've been through
They don't know about what we had to get through
They don't know about that real life pain (pain)
On yo' knees, they gotta come through (come through)

How would you feel if you was in my shoes? (My shoes)
When you can't call nobody it's just you (just you)
Real niggas ain't gotta say they real (they real)
But I'm a real nigga, baby, it's true (it's true, it's true)

And I'ma get through (get through), 16 goin' to school with a pistol
Pops got killed, what the fuck they just do? (Fuck they just do)
Left way too soon, I still needed you (he's gone)
I'm trippin' like, "What you want me to do?", they like

Please, stay focused (stay focused), don't get tricked off the streets (no)
You know so many's dependin' on you (we dependin' on you, dependin' on you)
I'm already knowin' (knowin'), I'm tryin' my best (my best)
I'm not perfect, believe me (believe me)

Yeah, God made me with flaws, put his name in my songs
Put my pain in his palms, my God (my God)
I'm gon' always stand tall through the rain and the storm
Don't leave me out here alone, my God (my God)

Please, stay focused, don't get tricked off the streets
You know so many dependin' on you (dependin' on you)
I'm already knowin', I'm tryin' my best
I'm not perfect, believe me

They don't know about we've been through
They don't know about what we had to get through
They don't know about that real life pain
On yo' knees, they gotta come through

How would you feel if you was in my shoes? (My shoes)
When you can't call nobody it's just you (just you)
Real niggas ain't gotta say they real (they real)
But I'm a real nigga, baby, it's true, oh (it's true)
And I'ma get through
