C-murder - Lord Help Us lyrics

Chorus: Our world is hopeless, and we have no where to go Our children are hungry, and we can't feed the poor Were really hopeless, spread some love before And love that and hold in Lord i really miss my friends Lord please help us [c-murder] Now as i walk through the streets i see many people under pressure Cause uh life ain't easy and you know this world gon' test ya My daddy told me c one day you gon' be faced with this problem And you and only you must find the knowledge to solve it My momma said lord gives us tests to measure our faith And if you really believe in god, then you shall smile on judgement day Cause at the crossroads ain't no hunger, and every man the same color And when it's my time to open 'em gates cause uh I really miss my brother And you the only man that can judge me So please guide me to the right direction And why can't i put this gun up and use my bible for protection And it's an everyday struggle, don't expect nothing to change in a week But lord help us in this hopeless world Cause i don't wanna die in the streets Chorus [c-murder] Now i done been stop shedding tears, now my eyes bleed when they cry And i never understand why, everybody gotta die And everything that's born gotta go, and i really think that's a shame And i'm so tired of reminiscin' Trying to put a face to a name You put my grandfather in my life, and then you took him away Yeah, big daddy used to drink but uh, he gave me a place to stay And many kids starving overseas, and even right here on my block My auntie told me in the year 2000 that the world was gon' stop Now i don't wanna question you lord, but is violence really the answer And if not, then how come so many innocent people diein' of the cancer Now revolations say the world gon' end, but the world ain't over yet And it's up to us to move on, but in our hearts we'll never forget Chorus [c-murder] They say god created man, and put man on this earth And then came woman from there, and from there, there was birth And ever since eve gave adam the apple, the bible's like the spell And introduced mankind, not only to heaven, but a place called hell Even though we try to repent, it's too many gangstas taking us down My cousin tried to leave the streets, and now he laying in the ground And jesus died for our sins, but i wonder if he wasted his time Cause it's 1999, and this world is still blind Now i don't wanna lose my freedom, cause i'm this close to making it big Now i don't know if i'm a make a difference But i just wanna be there for my kids Now that's a hopeless situation, when will it end, i don't know But lord help cause your children, ain't got no where else to go Chorus 3x
