As I wake up I give thanks and praise

Out in the streets you know it nah no game
So many youth man dead and gone away
And there were days when I feel like couldn't make it (Yeah)
My momma prayed and prayed for me out here in this battlefield (In this battlefield)
And when you're raised in the slums all the risk yh you gotta take it (Yeah)
