chance [00:19.77]To witness the realest [00:20.84]Sh*t that's ever been told to man [00:22.83]I found myself losing focus [00:24.04]At a Sunday service [00:25.31]Embarrassed so I started questioning

[00:51.42]And told 'em how I was truly [00:52.83]Blessed [00:53.15]Felt like I'm free from all [00:54.56]My sins when the service was over [00:55.99]Walked out the church then [00:57.31]Got a call

[01:13.04]Oh faaaaaaaith [01:21.43]All you need is the size [01:23.15]Of a mustard seed [01:24.04]Single black parent from [01:24.77]Compton raising children of four [01:25.92]That's four innocent bastards [01:27.04]Cause papa they don't know [01:28.86]Her day consists of working back [01:30.38]And forth with babysitters [01:31.95]Can't find no one to watch [01:33.30]Her kids so she pay her sister [01:35.08]Her baby daddy ain't bout sh*t [01:36.76]That ni**a ain't bout sh*t [01:38.00]Spent his daughter milk just [01:39.41]To cop a new outfit [01:40.50]She pray to God every night [01:42.41]Hoping that he'll mature [01:43.71]And maybe one day his kids [01:45.45]Something that he'll live for [01:46.69]Baby wanna go back to school [01:48.53]But she need some help [01:49.87]Because it's hard tryna pay [01:51.15]The bills when you're by yourself [01:52.71]She thought about credit card [01:54.10]Scams till she heard a voice [01:55.74]That said the Devil is a lie [01:57.67]Make a better choice [01:58.75]And so it's back to McDonald's [02:00.21]And every month dealing [02:02.12]With them crazy a** people [02:03.71]At the county building [02:04.73]Looked to the heavens and asked 'em [02:06.61]To make a better way [02:08.08]Then got a letter in the mail [02:09.71]Lost her section 8 [02:10.86]Then lost her faith again [02:12.31]What am I gonna do [02:15.99]Gotta have faith [02:18.84]Life is too much [02:20.90]Understood [02:22.21]Where is your faith [02:25.22]Oh faaaaaaaith [02:30.20]All you need is the size of a mustard seed [02:35.61]Kendrick [02:35.81]I had dreams of holding [02:37.37]A nine-milla to raise Killa [02:39.37]Ask him why as my eyes fill up [02:42.01]Each day it gets more realer [02:43.78]Orangutans bang like gorillas [02:45.89]It's jungle when the niggas ensue [02:47.91]The rat's lurking [02:49.35]Vulture's circling the serpents [02:50.94]Cats lying through they teeth [02:52.64]My ni**a didn't deserve it [02:53.83]I flirted with the idea [02:55.20]Of caressing the steel [02:56.36]To make karma come faster [02:57.66]Than she normally will [02:59.55]It's ill to see my faith [03:02.08]Try and leave me [03:03.12]It's so hard to get it [03:04.59]To get rid of it is easy [03:06.63]I'm tryna reach cloud nine [03:07.78]That's what my niggas bout [03:09.25]But it never rain [03:10.19]In California 'less them pistols out [03:12.19]Until then my feet [03:13.84]Planted on the ground [03:14.83]Shadowboxing my conscience [03:15.76]Till my faith start responding [03:17.04]And if I get no answer [03:20.07]Just know I tried [03:21.07]I should have never [03:22.07]Looked into his son's eyes [03:23.51]Ray Charles voice [03:24.57]What am I gonna do [03:28.39]Gotta have faith [03:30.75]Life is too much [03:32.88]Understood [03:34.27]Where is your faith [03:37.46]Oh faaaaaaaith [03:44.03]All you need is the size of a mustard seed [03:47.79]This for my people that [03:48.67]Stressing whenever times is hard [03:50.15]Your mind's slipping [03:50.76]Wondering is there really a God [03:52.69]Knowing you shouldn't think [03:54.24]That way and tryna freeze your brain [03:55.88]But whenever it's pain [03:57.21]That feeling forever remains [03:58.09]We can't believe what we can't see [04:00.37]And reality seems stronger than prayer [04:02.89]Cause you tried to change your life [04:04.68]And now you live in a wheelchair [04:06.35]And your son was born with cancer [04:07.63]And he live in urgent care [04:09.00]At the tender age of twelve [04:10.41]And you feel that no one cares [04:11.97]Searching for answers that's human nature [04:14.37]You ain't in the wrong [04:15.75]Just know when you feeling [04:16.83]That way his spirit's in the room [04:18.16]I watched people I know pray [04:20.00]And catch the Holy Ghost [04:21.37]And wonder why I ain't never [04:22.96]Caught that feeling before [04:24.22]Maybe they know him better [04:25.95]Or I don't know no better [04:27.56]But what I do know is that [04:29.07]He's real and he lives forever [04:30.24]So the next time you feel [04:32.06]Like your world's about to end [04:33.68]I hope you studied because [04:34.76]He's testing your faith again [04:37.99]I'd rather not live [04:38.91]Like there isn't a God [04:42.56]Than die and find out there really is [04:45.74]Think about it
