In my hour of darkness, she's standing right in front of me
Speaking words of wisdom, let it be
Scottie C got this one
Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be
Speaking words of wisdom, let it be
When the money came, the hearts changed, but I let it be
The streets don't show you nothing except jealousy and enemies
And visit to the cemeteries, trauma you can't sleep
You find yourself needing therapy, put my pain upon these melodies
I still ask for wisdom, but I pray that it's heavenly
Get out before it's late, cause this ain't really what it's meant to be
I know someone who had it all, now all they got is Hennessy
Trying to drink that pain away wish he knew it's only temporary
I know a girl who met a guy who she thought was 100
Plus he had 100K, but she got blinded by the money
There's a child on its way, she needs support, he gave her nothing
Memories start to fade, cause she don't find none of it funny
That's another single mum raising her child on her own
Tell me what do you expect when you give a dog its bone
I try to tell my older brother, stop the hustling
He been doing it for years, but it's hard when that's the only thing he knows
I said I try to tell my older brother, stop the hustling
He been doing it for years, but it's hard when that's the only thing he knows
All that money coming in, rap it in bands and buying clothes
Clarity, I see things clear, looking in, no future goals
Look around, nothing to show, plus his phone keeps ringing
Another text, another sold, another sale, another smoke
I just pray for some hope, but who am I to even speak
When that's the life that he chose, they say you reap what you sow
He says you reap what you're told, I put my trust in Jesus Christ
Cause he's the one who changed me, I pray the Lord helps him see
Don't wear my heart on my sleeve, got too much on my plate
I still give, I got receipts, rather that than let it be
The Holy Spirit dwells in me, you know I'm here
You in those four walls thinking I don't care
Miles away from me, I still feel you near
Numerous times I tried to warn you, never listen
Where I'm from if you don't hear, you must feel
Now you're sitting down in prison
Let it be
Speaking words of wisdom
Let it be
Let it be
Let it be
Let it be
