Hustler's Prayer

Don Darnel, Jodi Wilson, Teddy Riley, Travis Williams

Mm
Mm-hmm, mm
Mm

My soul is so dirty
I've been hustlin' everyday
Now I know that I should pray
But I wonder if He hear what I'd say
I know my mama didn't raise me this way
But I gotta feed my family
If I could just make it through one more day (baby)
I could live the right way

Lord, you know it's been twelve to fifteen years I've been in the game
The way I live this life, forgive me, I know it's a shame
But who'd a thought I'd make it this far
From all the brothers and others that I've lost
I know I'm fortunate not to be one of those souls you choose
And I'm sorry for the ones I sent
Down here is to live or die, what was I suppose to do?
You know I wasn't quite ready
For this soul of mine to stand before you

My soul is so dirty (dirty)
I've been hustlin' everyday (hustlin' everyday)
Now I know that I should pray (pray)
But I wonder if He hear what I'd say (wonder if He hear what I'd say)
I know my mama didn't raise me this way (mama didn't raise me this way)
But I gotta feed my family (ooh)
If I could just make it through one more day (baby)
I could live the right way

I know I may not have been right but I've been fair
I guess that's why you saw it to keep me here
You must have somethin' better for me
Just give me a sign Lord, please show me (please show me)
Just want to thank you for the ones you've placed (stand by me)
I pray you watch over them, 'cause you watched over me
Until you clean us up Lord, like we should be
I know you will, eventually

My soul is so dirty (so dirty)
I've been hustlin' everyday (everyday)
Now I know that I should pray (I know)
But I wonder if He hear what I'd say
I know my mama didn't raise me this way (ooh)
But I gotta feed my family (gotta feed my family)
If I could just make it through one more day (baby)
I could live the right way

Please, watch over my babies and they mamas, too
'Cause they don't know what, what they daddy do
But this one thing, I promise you
I won't let my seeds do the same thing, too
Lord, bless my mama, you know how much she means to me
Despite the way I live, I know she still loves me
She's up in church, cryin' and prayin' for me
And I'ma try to see her there on Sunday, I said maybe

My soul is so dirty (soul is so dirty)
I've been hustlin' everyday (hustlin' everyday)
Now I know that I should pray (ooh)
But I wonder if He hear what I'd say
I know my mama didn't raise me this way (mama didn't raise me this way)
But I gotta feed my family (gotta feed my family)
If I could just make it through one more day (baby)
I could live the right way
