Lord Onubis - Who Do You Believe In?

Let us pray
Heavenly father
Hear a nigga down here
Before i go to sleep (oh)
Tell me, who do you believe in? (ooooh)
Tell me, who do you believe in?
(ohhh)
Who do you believe in?

I see mothers in black cryin', brothers in packs dyin'
Plus everybody's high
Too doped up to ask why
Watchin' our own downfall, witness the end (oh)
It's like we don't believe in god cause we livin' in sin (ooooh)

I asked my homie on the block why he strapped, hе laughed
Pointed his pistol
As the cop car passеd and blast (ooh)
It's just another murder
Nobody mourns no more
My tear drops gettin' bigger
But can't figure
What i'm cryin' for (ohhhh)

Is it the miniature caskets
Little babies
Victims of a stray
From drug dealers gone crazy (yea)
Maybe it's just the drugs
Visions of how the block was
Crack came and it was strange how it rocked us (ohh ooo)
Perhaps the underlyin' fact
Stay high explain genocide
It's when we ride on our own kind
What is it we all fear
Reflections in the mirror
We can't escape fate
The end is gettin' nearer
Who do you believe in?
Put my faith in god and
Blessed and still breathin'
Even though it's hard

That's who i believe in
Before i am leavin'
I'm askin' the grievin'
Who do you believe in?

Verse 2 1:23-2:03
Can't close my eyes
Cause all i see is terror
I hate the man in the mirror (oh)
Cause his reflection makes the pain turn realer
Times of armageddon
Murder in mass amounts(oh)
In this society where only gettin' the cash counts (ooh)
I started out as a beginner
Entered the criminal lifestyle became a sinner (….)
I make my money and vacate, evade prison
Went from the chosen one to outcast, unforgiven (oh)
And all the hennessy and weed can't hide, the pain i feel inside
You know, it's like i'm livin' just to die
I fall on my knees
And beg for mercy
Not knowin' if i'm worthy
Livin' life
Thinkin' no man can hurt me (oh)
So i'm askin' --
Before i lay me down to sleep
Before you judge me
Look at all the shit you did to me
My misery
I rose up from the slums
Made it out the flames
In my search for fame
Will i change? i'm askin'
Who do you believe in?
Put my faith in god and
Blessed and still breathin'
Even though it's hard

That's who i believe in
Before i am leavin'
I'm askin' the grievin'
Who do you believe in?

I was born the third of september
Lord barely breathing
With a hole in my heart
Fighting demons
Lord hear me screaming
Tell me am i dreaming
What is it that i fear
Nineteen eighty six
Lord is that year
All tha doctors said couldn’t survive
I wouldn’t live to see twenty one, i guess they lied
It comes as no surprise
Tears feel my eyes
Hear my heart cry
Lord is my soul inside sometimes
Father i can barely stand
I fall to my knees
And pray you take me by tha hands
And though i understand
Father i still need ya love, spread my wings and take me up above
My destiny, my prophecy is not yet fulfilled
Trying to ease tha pain father that my soul feels
Is it real it’s tha pain that i must endure
Forever more
Help erase my tears
What am i crying for, lord i’m breathing
Who do you believe in?
Put my faith in god and
Blessed and still breathin'
Even though it's hard
That's who i believe in
Before i am leavin'
I'm askin' the grievin'
Who do you believe in?

Who do you believe in?
Put my faith in god and
Blessed and still breathin'
Even though it's hard
That's who i believe in
Before i am leavin'
I'm askin' the grievin'
Who do you believe in?

Who do you believe in?
Put my faith in god and
Blessed and still breathin'
Even though it's hard
That's who i believe in
Before i am leavin'
I'm askin' the grievin'
Who do you believe in?
