Dmx Prayer - Blaklez, Reason

I’m just checking my moves

I switch 'em like a ball player

We ain’t had no money

Never used to ball, player

Living through hope and luck

My homey it was all prayer

All prayer and we hoping that the lord save us

You gotta get up, get on up

Just tell them get up, get on up

Y’all need to get up, get on up

You gotta get up, get on up

(Singing hallelujah amen)

I do not sleep, I wake up and I go

I do not peak, I go up and I go

Pray for my kids and my mom and my bro

Also my sister, my papa and magogo

Never forgetting my bitch

'Cause she gave me some bread

When a nigga ain’t had any dough

Now we got kids and a crib full of shit we don’t need

I don’t have any place for no hoes

Only got space for the truth

Come see my place, I got views

Only see greens and the blue

Don’t give a fuck about you

'Cause my daughter playing my music

And I’m doing business with Jews

Them niggas pay for my views

Y’all niggas pay for the views

I was just talking to Slikour the other day

That nigga told me to choose

Are you going for the moment and not for tomorrow

'Cause then you will lose

He said it’s the little you do

That shit is good for your future

I had a reply and withdrew

I’m learning there’s more I could do

Now I’m a saucy nigga with some awesome figures

'Cause if the sauce can hit us, then I’m sure we’ll get it

God forgive us, we’re just balling different to them sucker niggas

'Cause we’re always winning

Pushing never the right position

Been the reallest since a little youngin

If you’re corny then I get it popping

DMXing, out

I’m just checking my moves

I switch 'em like a ball player

We ain’t had no money

Never used to ball, player

Living through hope and luck

My homey it was all prayer

All prayer and we hoping that the lord save us

You gotta get up, get on up

Just tell them get up, get on up

Y’all need to get up, get on up

You gotta get up, get on up

(Singing hallelujah amen)

Right in the middle of the motherland

We got the upper hand

You understand, we’re tryna move up the stands

But your moves are underhanded

I wanna move but I can’t afford a spaceship to another planet

Another plan is, build a family

Not run around, do a lot of damage

Come on come on, chase the riches

Yeah we go for gold

They say hang in there

You’re backed in a corner, pull a roper though

Here’s the truth that strips you to your bare minimum

Leave my foes exposed

Got rid of the jewelry

I’m a pyramid, yeah I’m over gold

We’re 'bout to break down the devil’s defense

I broke away from a lot of weak friends

Chase the dream with my eyes open

Not when I’m sleeping

Still strong, came out wavy

Well life threw us in the deep end

I check coast like I make money in Cape Town

You know when you getting cheques in the coast

Money flows, we’re getting paid now

Hey now, negative energy get away now

Gotta get up, gotta stay blessed

DMX, gotta pray now

I’m just checking my moves

I switch 'em like a ball player

We ain’t had no money

Never used to ball, player

Living through hope and luck

My homey it was all prayer

All prayer and we hoping that the lord save us

You gotta get up, get on up

Just tell them get up, get on up

Y’all need to get up, get on up

You gotta get up, get on up

(Singing hallelujah amen)
