Lord Have Mercy Songtext

von Beanie Sigel

Please have mercy on me, have mercy on me
(On me)
Please have mercy on me, please have mercy on me
(On me, mercy, have mercy on me)

I'm tryin' to climb my stairways to Heaven like Led Zeppelin
Find that polished treasure like Eddie Laverde
I do my dirt so my kids see Heaven on earth
But the pain on my heart, it weighs heavy, it hurt

Hope you see my good intentions for whatever it's worth
No self convictions when I mention my intentions in verse
Like a preacher or a deacon when he speakin' in church
Know it's a lesson that I'm teachin' if you seekin' my verse

Like the shocker, the hour be a grievous thing
Like the droppin' of them Towers, man, it's plain to see
That them cowards can't sing a song that'll lead us in
They'd rather march and hold hands like MLK

The nigga in me like Malcolm Little said, "All means necessary"
So by all means, I'm armed and my weapon's ready
I got my lessons ready
Hopin' I learned 'em before I'm laid to rest and buried
Have mercy on me
(Lord, have mercy)

Please have mercy on me
(Have mercy on me, have mercy on me)
Please have mercy on me
(Have mercy on me)
Please have mercy on me
(Have mercy on me)

Pressure bust pipes, pressure can also make a diamond
Pressure can bust a man wrestlin' with his conscience
His self accusin' spirit of his past
(But our Lord knows mercy is greater than his wrath)

So in that, I not only pray for me, I pray for he
My dead brother Robert
Help him with his problems and the bumps and grinds
And the evil things and thoughts that run through his mind

Take a hand on my sister, J Blige
As I listen to her life go down, watchin' her life spin round
On them records, every track she sing in prayer
Give her no more drama, let her rainy days be clear
(No more trouble)

Receivin' signs from Osama that the days is near
When babies is baby mommas, man, them days is here
It means that them days is now
I pray that the Lord have mercy when my day come 'round
(I plead your mercy, Lord)

Please have mercy on me
(Have mercy on me, have mercy on me)
Please have mercy on me
(Have mercy on me, have mercy on me)

We need your mercy, I need your mercy
(Lord, I need, have mercy on me)
(Have mercy on me)
For my soul, for my soul
(For my soul, on my soul)

Please have mercy on me
