Petey Pablo - Test Of My Faith lyrics

Petey here I wanna tell im dead broke and im bout to go crazy half a tank of gas, two ciggaretts scrapping up change in the ashtray then the voices its only a test of my faith it was only Damn theres a song for that n***a down south That i was tellin y'all about yo check this n***a sh** out Memba that song i told you came on sounding like He was talking about everything in my life How he was at a point in his own and the problem seemed to be taking a toll He been fightin so long seemed like everything he did went wrong But he found the strenghth to keep on going and wrote songs about it later on I know this sh** hit me home especially when he was talikin about the money he owed how he took the bills and paid a little somethin on each one like he'd put somethin on his light bill, somethin on his phone he'd get lil money in here he paid a lil more he aint have it all so he just paid what he could on it and somehow he managed to keep all this stuff going It was nothin but a grace to the lord Carolina i remeber an i was dead broke and bout to go crazy half a tank of gas, two ciggaretts scrapping up change in the ashtray and the voices its was only a test of my faith it was only Say it seemed like every time he got himself off the ground Somethin would come and knock him right back down Sometimed he wanted to lay on out for the count frustrated and tired but he got up anyhow and with a smile i'm talking about it makes ya ask yourself how he could then he broke down and said I aint never been this happy in my life, aint got a dime more than i had but everything seems allright, then they said he went low having a joy of a piece of mind, meant more than any problem i had at a time, and now i know and i'm so glad it was only a sign of the time it was only asking me why should i cry it was only saying be glad your alive today it was only (only) a test of my faith man he went and sang that song play this sh** every morning just to get my little day goin You just dont know how this had touched my soul to find out i wasnt the only one that been through so allmost that exact same something it eased me up knew what it was just couldn't put iy in words i aint never been the type that really talk to nobody so all the problem i had i just kept it all inside me Y'all had enough of your own to worry bout Not the little situation i had going on but yano god wont let you suffer to long i aint even have the radio on i was out on the porch then boom! from the heavens above just when i was at that point and i was just about to mess up man buddah played a song for me cuz i just shook my head like uh uh uh uh [chorus to end]
