Testo Ooh Wee - Lil' O
Testo della canzone Ooh Wee (Lil' O), tratta dall'album Rap Party - Happy New Year
Lord have mercy, mercy
Lord have mercy, mercy
Ooh wee, dear Lord, I don't want that to be me
Another black boy in the penitentiary
So many fall victim to these evil streets
And it just makes me sad
Ooh wee
Even though life is hard
I walk through the thunderstorm knowin' there's a God
And when trouble comes, he'll be my shield and my sword
Strike down my foes
But I feel sorry for the ones that don't hear God and don't know
And hear the weed through my mouth, exhale out my nose
I seen many niggas fail, chasing money and clothes
Stuck in the game 'cause the block feeds us
Chasing blood money, that's why we block bleeders
We grew up hatin' the police 'cause the cops beat us
And now we grown full of hate and we got heaters
And what a wicked combination, 'cause now a nigga outta control
And we ain't tryna hear shit 'bout we on the wrong road
We always gotta catch a case and a jail cell closed
Or a nigga just like us gotta fill us with holes
And ain't it cold? 'Cause we 'posed to stick to the trend
Even though the trend is down to endin' up in the pen', but
Ooh wee, dear Lord, I don't want that to be me
Another black boy in the penitentiary
So many fall victim to these evil streets
And it just makes me sad
Ooh wee, dear Lord, I don't want that to be me
Another black boy in the ground six feet deep
So many fall victim to these evil streets
And it just makes me sad
Ooh wee
You tell me how you take the pain out
When you hear your partner just blew his brains out
You see, the pressure of these streets'll make you crazy
And everybody say they love you, huh, but everybody shady
And all the youngsters got babies with mouths to feed
But all the youngsters dropped out, they ain't got no degree
'Cause all the youngsters chasin' cars and material things
But all the youngsters ain't thinkin' 'bout the pain it could bring
A lost soul on the block, I would walk the streets
Goin' so hard on my grind, I forgot to eat
I can't forget the day my partner got knocked off his feet
By a dope fiend with a gauge tryna rob him for cheese
I seen the fear in his eyes
He knew he'd been shot and his leg was paralyzed
They had to amputate his legs, that's when I realized
How raw it could be, and livin' life in these streets
'Cause it wasn't for me, 'cause
Ooh wee, dear Lord, I don't want that to be me
Another black boy in the penitentiary
So many fall victim to these evil streets
And it just makes me sad
Ooh wee, dear Lord, I don't want that to be me
Another black boy in the ground six feet deep
So many fall victim to these evil streets
And it just makes me sad
Ooh wee
Dear Father up in Heaven, have mercy on us
Protect us from these evil streets that be murderin' us
Protect us from these crooked cops that put burden on us
Protect us from these heartless D-As that put hurtin' on us
Protect us from ourselves, some of us don't know no better
Thinkin' that a life of crime the only way to get cheddar
Protect us from our jealousy and our lust for power
Knowin' the devil walk the streets, seekin' whom to devour
I ain't really got no friends
'Cause all my real dogs are in the grave or in the pen'
They left when they was boys, I won't see 'em 'til they men
And then my lil' partner, man, he just signed for ten
Where does the drama end?
I put money on they books to try to ease they pain
Prayin' to the Lord, hopin' they find peace again
Then I give thanks for my life knowin' some meet they end
I must survive, stay alive and stay my ass out the pen', 'cause
Ooh wee, dear Lord, I don't want that to be me
Another black boy in the penitentiary
So many fall victim to these evil streets
And it just makes me sad
Ooh wee, dear Lord, I don't want that to be me
Another black boy in the ground six feet deep
So many fall victim to these evil streets
And it just makes me sad
Ooh wee
I don't wanna end up in jail (Ooh wee)
I don't wanna end up in the pen' (Ooh wee)
I don't wanna end up in the ground (Ooh wee)
I don't wanna end up like my friends (Ooh wee)
I don't wanna end up in jail (Ooh wee)
I don't wanna end up in the pen' (Ooh wee)
I don't wanna end up in the ground (Ooh wee)
I don't wanna end up like my friends (Ooh wee)
I don't want that to be me (Ooh wee)
I don't want that to be me (Ooh wee)
I don't want that to be me (Ooh wee)
I don't want that to be me (I really don't want that to be me)
I don't want that to be me (Ooh wee)
I don't want that to be me (Ooh wee)
I don't want that to be me (Ooh wee)
I don't want that to be me (Ooh wee)
I don't want that to be me (I really don't want that to be me)
(Ooh wee)
