Why Do the Righteous Suffer - Dee-1[00:00:00]
Written by:David Augustine/LaShawn Daniels/Brandon N. Caddell/Aaron Rougier[00:00:02]
Why do the righteous have to suffer so much[00:00:20]
This crooked world ain't tryna' see me blow up[00:00:22]
One more time[00:00:24]
Why do the righteous have to suffer so much[00:00:25]
This crooked world ain't tryna' see me blow up[00:00:27]
I gave Britney my heart[00:00:29]
She cheated on me soon as we got to college[00:00:30]
With a football player 4 Th string bench rider man[00:00:32]
Now I'm working around campus looking like a fool[00:00:35]
Three years together now in you in some random dude[00:00:38]
I had basketball scholarships to different schools[00:00:41]
I passed on em' so that I could go to school with you[00:00:43]
I tried to walk on the team back in LSU[00:00:46]
That ain't work I got cut and I was through with ball[00:00:48]
Ryan got murdered for nothing can't be replaced[00:00:51]
My dawg ever since he was scooping grounders at third base[00:00:53]
Went to church every Sunday with him[00:00:55]
First communion catechism[00:00:57]
Wish them bullets would've missed him man I miss him[00:00:58]
Sometimes you die over pain it still hurts[00:01:01]
Sometimes I cry just thing ain't work[00:01:03]
I can't deny sometimes I feel cursed[00:01:06]
Trying to make it work before I'm in the dirt[00:01:08]
Sometimes I wish that life could be reversed[00:01:11]
One take one shot no time to be rehearsed[00:01:13]
Grandma keep saying that I should go back to church[00:01:16]
Trying to keep god first but every night I'm hurt[00:01:19]
Why do the righteous have to suffer so much[00:01:21]
This crooked world ain't tryna' see me blow up[00:01:23]
Hurricane Katrina wiped my whole city away[00:01:25]
Washed it away left my grandpa in depression[00:01:26]
He ain't smiled til' this day[00:01:30]
He took it too personal took it too hard[00:01:31]
Lost his house but worst almost lost his faith in god[00:01:34]
God god it's little David I know you know me[00:01:36]
Jesus where you at bro throw me a blessing homie[00:01:38]
Looking round' me ain't too many friends left[00:01:41]
Started trying to live right and all my friends left[00:01:43]
In college feeling like a one man army[00:01:46]
Friday night in my dorm room feeling lonely[00:01:48]
Then I started trying to rap[00:01:51]
Ain't have no direction gps or road map[00:01:52]
Just running round' in circles partna wasting my time[00:01:54]
Finding out slowly but surely I'm losing my mind[00:01:58]
Man[00:02:00]
Sometimes you die over pain it still hurts[00:02:01]
Sometimes I cry just thing ain't work[00:02:04]
I can't deny sometimes I feel cursed[00:02:06]
Trying to make it work before I'm in the dirt[00:02:09]
Sometimes I wish that life could be reversed[00:02:11]
One take one shot no time to be rehearsed[00:02:13]
Grandma keep saying that I should go back to church[00:02:16]
Trying to keep god first but every night I'm hurt[00:02:19]
Sometimes you die over pain it still hurts[00:02:26]
Sometimes I cry just thing ain't work[00:02:42]
I can't deny sometimes I feel cursed[00:02:47]
Trying to make it work before I'm in the dirt[00:02:49]
Sometimes I wish that life could be reversed[00:02:52]
One take one shot no time to be rehearsed[00:02:55]
Grandma keep saying that I should go back to church[00:02:57]
Trying to keep god first but every night I'm hurt[00:03:00]
