[Intro: SWAVAY] Yeah My nigga Reu, thank you for sendin' me this shit, brok Yeah, it's been a long time since a nigga made me wanna rap, so Yeah [Verse 1: SWAVAY] Pray 'fore I sleep, sow what I reap Sometimes I weep, I ball to my feet Protectin' myself from the devil and industry niggas This not a lil' rollout or mystique This for my niggas that's bigger than streets Man, fuck it, one day you'll be bigger than me This for my rap niggas that's waitin' to pop But it's takin' too long, feel like countin' sheep All of my niggas that's waitin' on someone to hear that lil' rap or hear that one beat All of my niggas tht knew that they should've been paid but said, fuck it, I'll do it for free This for my niggas afraid of commitment, ain't never seen Left Eye or Chili but Creep This for my niggas that know they got wifey at home, but there's somethin' 'bout bussin' it freak I'm bein' too honest, I'm takin' a chance Feel like my honesty made me a man I got way past all the shit with my daddy I see 'em today, I'm shakin' his hand I ain't like none of these rappers that's preachin' that indy shit I was broke like you, bro, take the advance Niggas ain't nobody independent any way, take care of your fam Man, my niggas ain't seen what I seen My own mama ain't know what I'd be Nigga, ain't nobody think I'd see sixteen, now they pay me to rap sixteens Nigga, I came from hallways with that piss Knew a whole lotta Bloods, runnin' blocks from them Crips Now I'm parkin' outside, the garage full of whips Now a nigga doin' skin care shit with their bitch [Verse 2: Reuben Vincent] Pray 'fore I sleep, spark when I wake Back when my plug used to bargain me shake I put all in this art, then I caught me a wave Like Nas with the fade, couldn't fall for a thang Salt in my wounds, I was caught in the rain Treat it like VC, charge to the game Rose from a home with a hole, left a mold on my soul, that I scold till the boy overcame, they was wishin' I fail I throw coins in the well, talkin' to God about change, we was nickel and dimin' Penny for thoughts, but my mind is tryna get out the cage Out of the way, out the city, they tell me it's filled with envy and hate Can't concentrate, in survival state, stay the same till the Jeep finally turn to a Range [Chorus: Reuben Vincent] Pray 'fore I sleep, sow what I reap, rose from the 'crete I need all flowers 'fore I leave I need protection, power and the peace Don't be afraid, you created a G.O.D My niggas ain't know what I seen Niggas ain't know what to think when they saw it was me Hoppin' out the gray Jeep, Grand Cherry, it's sweet The taste of revenge, they way we gon' spin, no makin' amends No pops at home still made me a man Ain't how it start, it's 'bout it ends So where or whenever that day come And they say I'm gone with the wind, stand over me and kiss my cheek Hug my friends, until we meet again [Verse 3: Chris Patrick] Pray 'fore I sleep, trauma reside Heart in a bind, starvin' to shine Signed a big deal back in 2021 And I watched how the money scarred all of my guys Ego inflated, walkin' with pride Like clothes in a laundry, got washed in the tide Never had shit, so when management fucked up the bread, it was nuts watchin' all us divide Woman I used to be with felt neglected Begged me to change, I always declined Woman I'm currently with is a lesson She force me to face all my problems inside Partner in jail, couldn't send bail My bank full of money is suddenly dried Tellin' my momma, I'm finna be straight to assure her But truth is she know that I'm lyin' Tried to reconnect with niggas I lost in the blaze, was treated as if I was slime Reflectin' on who I became, in the midst of the war, PTSD on my mind Savin' the world without savin' yourself from destruction, the reason why most niggas die I wanna sure the next time niggas slide out to the crib, I got things I can actually provide This for the niggas preparin' to climb, this for the niggas ain't scared of the grind Acceptin' your failures, versus runnin' away from them hoes, is the difference in if you survive Prayin' for people who gave me forgiveness, I pray for people who pray I get lined Pray when it's over we all get to link at the gates and patch up what we lost while alive for sure Uh, pray before I sleep
