Antonious - You Don't Have to Cry lyrics

[Chorus] You don't have to cry, I know He'll be right by your side, He'll keep you strong Playa dry your eyes, I know He'll pull you through these times, and help you roll on [Antonious] I know in time we all feelin some type of pain in His thigh Cryin on your side for better ways to stay closer to Christ Everyday its a fight against evil Dont say that the weed said he's strong Even though He sees the hurt in our people Plead the blood and we carry on I wish everybody was treated equal in this world gon mad I see political depression that makes me feel so sad In the projects, souls confussed, missused by the system Devil gots little kids pickin up pistols Why do you always see em playin wit missles What happened to peace and helpin the needy When did alot of people turn greedy Thinkin its really hard to help somebody, when really its just that easy And when I look up somebody's dyin, Lord I'm tryin to do right And I know it ain't worth my life, dyin deep down on the insides Hope that you hear as I fall down to my knees and pray for your help Cause I know I can't do it myself, don't want to turn to no one else So I'm beggin you please God, can you show me the way to salvation Cause I'm livin in a currupt nation, and they keep bringin temptation Im facin so much of this world, tryin to bring me down But I place my feet on solid ground and try to turn my life around I'ma get in your Word, contentacy, I'm tweakin to get higher So I'ma need c**aine to guide me when I get that desire [Chorus] [Antonious] When I look at these lives, and it looks like everything might be hopeless And I gotta get focused, before my time, oh Lord I know this And I look at these lives, and I wonder why my people struggle And all to juggle, when you're fittin pieces to the puzzle And I look at the only thing, the mighty faced in their path Guess it makes no different when you're tryin to make your future last And I look at this system, currupted in so many ways And I can't be trippin, so I gotta watch the way I behave And I look at my mother, strong black women, and she works real hard And its like no other, and there's no color when it comes to God And I look at these children, 12 years old and they sellin d** And I do what I can, do let them shorties know they got that love And I look at my sisters, some sell their bodies for that bloat Many don't know, there's a better place for them to go So yeah I sow, cause I know one day I'm gon reap So as I sleep, I pray to the Lord your soul to keep [Chorus]
