A Minute to Pray

[Intro]

Yeah, it's been a long time

Welcome back, yeah

Our Father, who art in Heaven

Got niggas jumpin out the buildin like 9/11, c'mon

[Xzibit]

Only God could save us

I done burned down the town and killed my neighbor

Do I, come to you for my early demise? (yeah)

A minute to pray, it only take a second to die

Niggas ain't prepared, too scared to do it

Dippin cigerettes in embalmin fluid

Hoods, special effects bring the drama to it

But sue me if you wanna see the trauma youth

I'm a walkin time bomb, don't tick me off

Crucified to die, nailed to the cross

Natural transition, foot soldier to boss

The A.K. ricochet put blood in your cough

And you know the whole fucked up part of it all?

Take a muh'fucker's life somebody comin for yours

It's the get-back gangstas don't believe in karma

Only the strength of the dollar and the body armor

You the bitch ass nigga or a man of honor

My hands wrap around your throat like a anaconda

Then squeeze 'til your eyes pop out of your face

Then relocate to a brand new space (yo)

[Chorus: Xzibit]

Only God could save us (yeah)

I done burned down the town and killed my neighbor (yeah)

Do I, come to you with blood on my hands (yeah)

Or run away from the place that I stand? WHO THE FUCK I AM, YEAH!

Only God could save us

I done burned down the town and killed my neighbor

Do I, come to you for my early demise?

A minute to pray, it only take a second to die

[Xzibit]

I used to snatch people out of cars with a shotgun

Now I give cars to people who ain't got one

Still got the shotgun, whole different lifestyle

Kill you with a crowbar, wrapped in a white towel

Gotta play it smart now, the streets is watchin

The streets dictate the beats so my beats be knockin

Fuck a Strong Arm, I'll drop your coffin

Yeah yeah, muh'fucker I hear you talkin

Niggas so often take kindness for weakness

Heat-seekin G with the elite on some cheap shit

This my square boy, you can't take me out of it

You want war nigga you better bring a lot of it

I ain't a problem with puttin my problems to rest

You so pussy, boy you need a gynocologist

The hand, the bullet, the firin pin

Please God forgive me for I have sinned, Amen

[Chorus]

[Xzibit]

Huh, hit a nigga, kill a nigga will come back

Murder rap never attached, got too many snaps

It's more than raps, it's actual facts

Welcome back to the West, left side of your map

Been attacked from all sides, it's time for the payback

Lay back, wait for the right time to spray that

Spray that motherfucker, down to the last clip

Last clip you save for the cop on some waive shit

Blaze haze for days; shocked, stunned, amazed

Bitch best behave or take the fade

Blaze Shade-45 in the all-black Bentley

If I gotta go, y'all niggas comin with me

Simply put, Mobb Deep said y'all were (Shook)

And when I come through, you just look

We don't change the game, we close the book

I let you go now, I know you got crack to cook, c'mon

[Chorus - 2X]
