God Forgive Us (2014 Version)
[Lyrics from Snippet]
[Sample]
[Intro: KXNG Crooked]
Can't go through a testimonial
Without saying the word test
Let me testify...
[Verse 1: KXNG Crooked]
They say earth just another form of hell
Men are the demons, spending precious minutes killing and scheming, I fell
Victim myself, dealing and thieving, stealing and beefing, the street was revealing the villain and heathen was me
I don't talk deep boy shit to seem hard
N**ga, my coke so Mexican it need a green card
Bringing orders over the border, so Tijuana knowing if federalis catch me I won't even see minyana
Your honor, I was just a poor kid
Curse me, that's what I thought that the lord did
It irks me, knowing I belong somewhere, just not in this place
Probably should be locked in a rocket and shot into space
This for me, this is for nobody else
This the pre-suicide note I can't forget myself
Meant to be here, I probably wasn't
Honestly, Dominic is the product of a condom busting
[Verse 2: Joe Budden]
I killed for you, provide for you, thought I was your crest
Cause' I told you I would die for you, what did I decide to do?
Cheat and lie to you, I'm sure that pain was undeniable
But I can't find any places for me to hide the truth
Put this on the bibles, close to the yard
For kicking you out of a crib that was supposed to be ours
The fight we never should have been in, now it's you vs. the side bitch
Handed you the baggage, but you'll curl on the fly twist
Bad neglect, for the lack of respect
Even made you feel unattractive, you was average at best
See I put these other hoes in your car, in your bed
My wife in your life, your mind, my head
So she left me, not like I gave her a choice
How could we ever raise kids, I'm busy raising my voice
And I'm trying now to live with myself
How could you forgive me when I ain't learn how to forgive myself
Look, I'm sorry...

[Verse 3: Joell Ortiz]
If I would see homie right now would be a bang out
With me since the ??? just let them ring out
Try to knock each other brains out, so many shots, I can't count
They would never know me and son used to hang out
Everybody making mistakes, but my mistake, ouch
Why the fuck would I go to that party up in Jermaine's house
Bring that half-gallon of E&J out, blow haze out my nose, all these hoes ended on Lauren couch
That n**ga's a motherfucker, my n**ga bitch, I'ma sucka
She sittin under them covers eyes dripping
Why did I touch her, I'm tripping, I gotta figure now how to fuck him up
Tell my brother I stuck my dick in his baby mother, what the?
I didn't even get the chance to
Came out in my man's crew, threw shots at me constantly as I ran through
Heard him yelling 'damn you' as he tried to clear me
Seventeen years of drama, he's still [???]
[Verse 4: Royce Da 5'9]
Art be the kind way to speak and bind with brothers
I don't get why people be talking about how blinding love is
Feel out with my oldest sibling over...
