THE GANGSTER'S PRAYER
Heavenly Father, please hear me tonight,
I need so much guidance to live my life right.
Sometimes the pressure is so hard to bear.
I often wonder if anyone cares.
How can I wake up and face a new day
knowing I have to live my life this way?
Heavenly Father, forgive all my sins,
I want to change, but where do I begin?
Please give me strength
To resist the wild life I desire;
And God, bless my mother who cries every night
Worried if I'll be killed in another gang fight.
Heavenly Father, please answer my prayers
Let me know if You are listening up there.
When will it all end? What is it for?
To prove to my homies I'm down, I'm hardcore?
Sometimes I wonder, how will I die,
A bullet wound, or a knife in my side?
Heavenly Father, please hear me tonight.
Give me the courage and strength to live my life right.
Show me the way. Show me the light.
Help give my heart peace, so I won't have to fight.
Thank you for your forgiveness, Lord
And for still being there,
But most of all
Thanks for listening to this Gangster's Prayer.
