Mr. Woody - Lord Have Mercy lyrics

[Intro] "I don't know WHAT'S WRONG with these children today." "Nothin that a good a**-kickin wouldn't help!" [Verse 1: Shorty] Lord have mercy, the devil he cursed me I heard you had the cup of life, and I'm thirsty My n***as keep fightin for a street, the white man own So many died, before they got full grown Plus I got an ingrown toenail I sit back in the window, and watch all the hoes sell A lot of a** for a blast (that's right) Plus my litlte sister is gettin fast Usin mo' n***as for financial aid (what?) They pickin her up from the 10th grade In a Jeep they try to creep Takin her a** to Lover's Leap I admit I'm a sinner (yeah?) Did what I had to do, just to get dinner But I was told you was the first G (no sh**) L.A. is a war zone Lord, so could you have mercy "You know who the fu*k Jesus is.." [Verse 2: Shorty] I admit, I don't call too often (I know) I wonder why I don't live in a coffin Cause I know, a lot of my homeboys pray But when it was time, they still got sprayed The gra** is greener, in my neighbor's yard He's white, so his house is barred up By the windows and the doors But my moms gotta clean his fu*kIN floors They won't let us in (that's right) Even if we learn to act just like them (word?) But if you don't learn you flunk On a road to sleep, forever on a jail bunk (all day) But I ain't no punk, and I won't get punked By the system, so I gotta diss 'em I was told you was the first G Somethin ain't right Lord, so could you have mercy "You know who the fu*k Jesus is.." [Verse 3: Shorty] I'm dead, so bury me alive (six feet) Under all this bullsh** and jive Cause I know when you made South Central sh**ty - it wasn't done intentional Cause I looked back before the crack Before the macks, in motherf**in Cadillacs It was the same old thing But nowadays, n***as mo' brainwashed And I can tell everytime I see L.A. Compton to Long Beach gangs talk I wish when my pops got the erection He woulda used protection And I wouldn't be a squirrel tryin to get a nut And I want the nut, just to get some bu*t It's like the battle of the s**es My head spins around like I needed a exorcist But if you blew up the world today it wouldn't matter (Nope) just send down a ladder To the people who had it the worst G I'm askin you Lord, please have mercy
