L. David - If I Die Before I Wake (feat. G-Force)

If I close my eyes and never got back up
Got stabbed up clapped up, struck by a mac truck
Coffin in a black truck, bow tie in a black tux
Shed a tear all my people stand up
Tell my son to man up, daughter sing a stanza
Baby keep ya hands up
Glad God put me wit you, Mommy wet her tissue
Baby I'm a miss you
Baby your official so I'm shedding tears in the both
If this song is the truth
Lord I'm longing for you
Not just talk Lord I walked it for you
People walk in my shoes
Lord I'm scared but ready to die like BI
But you brought me out like TI
So I got to handle my BI

Now I lay me down to sleep, I pray the Lord my soul to keep
If I die before I wake I pray the Lord my soul to take
Now I lay me down to sleep, I pray the Lord my soul to keep
See me safely through the night and wake me with the morning light
Now I lay me down to sleep, I pray the Lord my soul to keep
If I die before I wake I pray the Lord my soul to take
Now I lay me down to sleep, I pray the Lord my soul to keep
See me safely through the night and wake me with the morning light

In judgment will I stand before the white throne
Face eternal life or lake of fire and brimstone
Did I flirt too long at sins home
Cause it broke me down like deficiency syndromes
Yea I know I should've been gone
Now this song runs through my cells like a ring tone
Hell's hold leads to hell holes
And pits that never end like solar black holes
Condemn black souls those who clap foes
Unbelievers who run through back roads
Roads are rough though my skin was tough
Did I focus on me did I praise you enough
Was my whole entire Christian life a bluff
Was life pressure and my body pipes that bust
Did the world pull you out of me like lipo sucks
I gotta get it together before this life is up

Now I lay me down to sleep, I pray the Lord my soul to keep
If I die before I wake I pray the Lord my soul to take
Now I lay me down to sleep, I pray the Lord my soul to keep
See me safely through the night and wake me with the morning light
Now I lay me down to sleep, I pray the Lord my soul to keep
If I die before I wake I pray the Lord my soul to take
Now I lay me down to sleep, I pray the Lord my soul to keep
See me safely through the night and wake me with the morning light

When I drop to my knees I'm not just coppin' pleas
I wonna feel a release like I'm popin threes
Every girl that I wrong forgive me please
Used to Iceberg now I changed my steeze
Told 'em you said quit my job they laughed at me
Some, even turned there backs on me
Some smiled in my face then put the axe to me
I know its my pride gettin' back at me
Had clergy on my back taking stabs at me
I needed your help so drastically
You came through as usual emphatically
The thought of that stuff used to madden me
But I forgave them cause you forgave me
Everything I gave up you gave it back to me
If I'm hell bound don't turn ya back to me
If I die before I wake stretch ya hand for me.

Now I lay me down to sleep, I pray the Lord my soul to keep
If I die before I wake I pray the Lord my soul to take
Now I lay me down to sleep, I pray the Lord my soul to keep
See me safely through the night and wake me with the morning light
Now I lay me down to sleep, I pray the Lord my soul to keep
If I die before I wake I pray the Lord my soul to take
Now I lay me down to sleep, I pray the Lord my soul to keep
See me safely through the night and wake me with the morning light
