GOSPEL GANGSTAS - Once Was Blind lyrics

[Verse 1]

I'm living life on the run will I end up in jail or die by a gun

Can't hide when they come y'all know where I'm from I ride with the Son

My outlook on this word is from a G'z perspective

Find those in a life of sin get 'em born again is my objective

Bringing pain like method, but I'm west coast cali tried and tested

Recorded and pressed it the force is aggressive everyday people die I address it

With my street education and my organisation get the sword inmy waist and

Could you come to my rescue? Lord cause I'm facing a citation

and it's kind of hard to get the picture cause my frame is shattered

My dog took 2 to the back of the dome left in back of a brougham with his brain splattered

Why do the good die young I heard a voice say

Go back to the hood my son I'ma wipe they tears away

So I took the under route back grab my word then swere can't leave without that

It's the Father's business gotta be about that committee got my back

And yo can't doubt that I'm about that trying to make some scrill gotta pay those bills

I'm out to make a mill if you gonna do his will you gotta stay real

[Chorus x2]

I saw the light he shines on me

I once was blind but now I see

[Verse 2]

Hustlin everyday and night trying to pay the rent

My momma smoked up here on dope so the money's spent

Ccorrupted by this ghetto living drive by's and killing

The preacha's paid and I'm broke so I can't feel him

I know the Lord is watching me but he gave us free will

I feel that's what's stopping me cause I'm in Love with my skrill

My mind is on deep meditation about me and God's separation

I don't do his will going to hell is my calculation

That's a sticky situation knwoing what I'm facing

Sin had me pacing repented with no hesitation

He brought me from a life of sin sin drinking gin gin

But now I'm saved so I know I could make it in

I try to tell my friendz that's going out ackwards

They either dead or in the pen or somewhere scattered

So I hope and pray God bless all the G'z

and open up they eyes, Loc, jut like he did me

[Chorus x2]

[Verse 3]

I opened my eyes and I visualize my current state

No God no faith and a dirty slate, sipping "8" with a life full of hate

Never see the pearly gates unless I make decisions in a hurry

In a worldly state my minds reprobate my visions blurry make amends in a hurry

Deep in the race keeping the pace and keeping the faith

My buddy T-Dub wasn't evil as the people he faced

They found him dead up in the streets with the heart in his waist

Lord give me the grace to do your will if that's my destination

Called to win the lost, my guesstimation

Bobb your head as I bless the nation

[x4]

I saw the light shine on me

I wanna thank you Lord for saving me

[Chorus: till fade]
