Wanna Live Lyrics

Wanna Live
Written by : Robert Wilson

Chorus1
I know you wanna live you don't wanna die
you don't want tears in your families eyes
you don't want your kids to grow up without a daddy
wanna see them greys turn to clear blue skies
I know ya wanna live the cross roads are nigh
a seed must go to the ground and die
then its gone rise
tell the whole block that God is alive
I know ya wanna live

DA block is jungle fighting to survive
its hard staying humble when them thugs in yo eyes
Dem doves gonna cry things need to change
driving through my city people need to get saved
i know ya wanna live theres so much ahead
i know ya feel fine but your spirit mans dead
coping Dem whips sitting on rims
backsliding like spinners man ya sitting on sin
Dem drugs will out live you they'll be here when ya gone
think about the lives that are ripped and they torn
your daddy been gone mama's on DA corner
big momma prays at night she don't hear from the corner
i know you wanna live you got a little kid
back in DA hood from a two year bid
so much pressure ya wanna lick shots
wanna let go kid i know ya wanna live

Chorus2
I know you wanna live you don't wanna die
you don't want tears in your families eyes
you don't want your kids to grow up without a daddy
wanna see them grays turn to clear blue skies
I know ya wanna live the cross roads are nigh
a seed must go to the ground and die
then its gone rise
tell the whole block that God is alive
I know ya wanna live

Verse2
i know ya wanna live them tricks that ya serve
standing on DA corner ten toes on DA curb
gotta feed them kids plus feed DAT pipe
Sunday morning your still trying to get in DAT word
i know ya wanna live but your dying on ya back
DAT love turned to lust now ya live on DA track
ya roll DA high stroll getting DAT fetti
trying to stay up but ya fall like confetti
call on DA Lord don't get in that jeep
the Lord can turn a prostitute into a queen
ya body worn out from that sexual sin
attached yourself to a legion of men
it started out fun running game in these streets
5 yrs later you got HIV
and hey i see ya fate has been sealed
Isiah 53 by His stripes we are healed

Chorus3
I know you wanna live you don't wanna die
you don't want tears in your families eyes
you don't want your kids to grow up without a daddy
wanna see them grays turn to clear blue skies
I know ya wanna live the cross roads are nigh
a seed must go to the ground and die
then its gone rise
tell the whole block that God is alive
I know ya wanna live

Verse3
i know ya wanna live you don't wanna die
what about your mama don't commit suicide
those whispers are lies DA devil in disguise
telling you your better off closing your eyes
but open up your eyes listen to the song
got so much life ahead of you whats wrong
ya feel insufficient His grace is sufficient
ya held ya head down for way too long
i know ya wanna live your waiting to exhale
just breathe and believe He'll set wind to ya sail
put down that razor let go of that rope
i know its been hard but don't let go of hope
your friends may forsake you family my feud
cant be optimistic and hope someone See's you
don't give up now ya got so much to give
father help our young kids i know they wanna live

Chorus4
I know you wanna live you don't wanna die
you don't want tears in your families eyes
you don't want your kids to grow up without a daddy
wanna see them grays turn to clear blue skies
I know ya wanna live the cross roads are nigh
a seed must go to the ground and die
then its gone rise
tell the whole block that God is alive
I know ya wanna live
