• Album: Love Me Back

I met him at the state store he was tryna holla
I ain't care If he was old enough to be my father
I knew his wife and went to school with his daughter
He was a boss that I knew went harder
Gave me my first taste but I had to take it farther
I mean I had go harder
I started calling up his crib just to get him
And I ain't even care I asked his wife if she was with him
Came home late and he got into a fight he called me that night
He said he never want to see me on the block
I said I don't need you but I need that rock

I couldn't take it so I had to go see him
Stole my momma car and drove around all evening
And when I found him I thought that he would lace me
I ain't got no money but you know I'll let you taste me
He pulled his gun out and told me I was stupid
I started crying prayed to god he wouldn't do it

Help please Lord I plead just save me
If you're really there
Here's a sinners cry
This is my redemption song

I met this chick in Philly who said she like to sang
I ain't mean it but I said that it was good she had a dream
Daddy used to beat my mom I saw it everyday
So when I got with her I did the same thing
He always used to say you gotta keep a b**** tamed
So I never let her sing
And every chance I got I told her if she ever left me
I'll kill her that's how I made her respect me
Forget me never
Made her believe it don't get no better
I told her it was crazy out there
She said she don't care but she cant stay here

The last time I hit her she went into the kitchen
I ain't pay her no mind ain't even know that she was missing
She came out bleeding with her eyes all black
I looked and saw she had something behind her back
She pulled a gun out and told me I was stupid
Dropped to my knees and prayed to god she wouldn't do it

Help please Lord I plead just save me
If you're really there
Here's a sinners cry
This is my redemption song

I really need to know if you are there
If you could just just hear a sinners cry
You could remake me
Ohh just save me
I promise if you get me through this I'll change
I need to be set free

Help please Lord I plead just save me
If you're really there
Here's a sinners cry
This is my redemption song

Forgive me father
I know I've done wrong
But I have nowhere else to turn
So hear me
And save me
