Test Of My Faith - Petey Pablo[00:00:00]
Petey here[00:00:04]
I wanna tell I'm dead broke and I'm 'bout to go crazy[00:00:10]
Half a tank of gas two cigarettes[00:00:16]
Scrapping up change in the ashtray[00:00:19]
Then the voices its only a test of my faith[00:00:22]
It was only[00:00:29]
Damn there's a song for that nigga down south[00:00:32]
That I was tellin' y'all about yo check this nigga shit out[00:00:35]
Remember that song I told you came on sounding like[00:00:38]
He was talking about everything in my life[00:00:40]
How he was at a point in his own[00:00:43]
And the problem seemed to be taking a toll[00:00:45]
He been fightin' so long[00:00:47]
Seemed like everything he did went wrong[00:00:48]
But he found the strength to keep on going[00:00:50]
And wrote songs about it later on[00:00:52]
I know this shit hit me home[00:00:54]
Especially when he was talkin' about the money he owed[00:00:56]
How he took the bills and he paid a little somethin' on each one[00:00:58]
Like he'd put somethin' on his light bill somethin' on his phone[00:01:02]
He'd get a lot of money in here he paid a little more[00:01:05]
He ain't have it all so he just paid what he could on it[00:01:07]
And somehow he managed to keep all this stuff going[00:01:10]
It was nothin' but a grace to the Lord[00:01:13]
Carolina I remember an' I was[00:01:15]
Dead broke and 'bout to go crazy[00:01:16]
Half a tank of gas two cigarettes[00:01:20]
Scrapping up change in the ashtray[00:01:24]
And the voices it's was only a test of my faith[00:01:27]
It was only[00:01:34]
Say it seemed like every time he got himself off the ground[00:01:37]
Somethin' would come and knock him right back down[00:01:40]
Sometimes he wanted to lay on out for the count[00:01:42]
Frustrated and tired but he got on up anyhow[00:01:44]
And with a smile I'm talking about[00:01:47]
It makes ya ask yourself how he could then he broke down and said[00:01:49]
"I ain't never been this happy in my life[00:01:54]
Ain't got a dime more than I had but everything seems alright"[00:01:57]
Then they said he went low having a joy of a piece of mind[00:02:04]
Meant more than any problem I had[00:02:10]
At a time and now I know and I'm so glad[00:02:13]
It was only a sign of the time[00:02:20]
It was only asking me why should I cry [00:02:25]
It was only saying "Be glad your alive today"[00:02:31]
It was only only a test of my faith[00:02:36]
Man he went and sang that song[00:02:43]
Play this shit every morning just to get my little day goin'[00:02:44]
You just don't know how this had touched my soul[00:02:48]
To find out I wasn't the only one that been through so[00:02:50]
Almost that exact same something it eased me up[00:02:52]
Knew what it was just couldn't put it in words[00:02:55]
I ain't never been the type that really talk to nobody[00:02:58]
So all the problem I had I just kept it all inside me[00:03:00]
Y'all had enough of your own to worry bout[00:03:04]
Not the little situation I had going on[00:03:06]
But you know God wont let you suffer to long[00:03:09]
I ain't even have the radio on I was out on the porch[00:03:11]
Then boom From the Heavens above[00:03:14]
Just when I was at that point and I was just about to mess up[00:03:17]
Man Buddha played a song for me 'cuz[00:03:20]
I just shook my head like uh uh uh uh[00:03:22]
Dead broke and 'bout to go crazy[00:03:25]
Half a tank of gas two cigarettes[00:03:30]
Scrapping up change in the ashtray[00:03:33]
And the voices it's was only a test of my faith[00:03:37]
It was only[00:03:44]
It was only a sign of the time[00:03:52]
It was only asking me why should I cry [00:03:57]
It was only saying "Be glad your alive today"[00:04:03]
It was only only a test of my faith[00:04:08]
