Say Your Prayers - Gang Starr

So many things will happen that one can’t explain

You find yourself saying «why me», time and again

They say what goes around, comes around

Ahun, so think about it while you’re messing up clown

A mother’s love and a father’s concern

Here is the reason you should listen and learn

Cause quick schemes and fast living can kill ya

I know how the excitement and danger can thrill ya

But take it from somebody who knows

Cause after all the highs, you’re gonna feel all the lows

This is why knowledge of self is essential

Cause if you don’t have it, you may simply go mental

See, life is not a thing to be toyed wit

Cause every second, another dream is destroyed wit

The systematic plan devised to erase us

And straight to hell is where they’re trying to take us

But never fold and hold back your fears

Have a strong mind and try to say your prayers
