Errol Nisbeth - The Prayer Lyrics

Hold not thy peace, O God of my praise
For the mouth of the wicked and the mouth of the deceitful are opened against me
They have spoken against me with a lying tongue
Selah
Father watch mi frens, mi wi take care a mi enemies
Third eye open so mi know seh dem a pene' mi
Ungrateful people, unrighteous and dem prejudice
Me ago crush the evil like the serpent inna Genesis
Ready fe face the nemesis, mi tired a the games
Roll up pon dem premises, dem shoulda never call mi name
Mi cut from a different cloth, the legacy will not be stained
Coming from a different breed mi blood type is not the same
Birthright is not fe sale so the blessing shall remain
All who a hype can chuck back inna the hole from which dem came
Dem a play and mi nuh romp. Money is the only aim
Mi waan fe flood the banks but me a wait pon yuh fe mek it rain
Have the power inna mi hands and by that mi mean mi brain
Mi only weapon is the mind, mi nuh waan nuh blood fe drain
But the fire still a burn and the weak feel the pain
The hand of time keep turning but the meek will remain
Almighty God, dem a stress me oh Lord
Guide and protect me through times, it's so hard
Almighty God, a you bless me oh Lord
Dem a try pressure mi, some a dem a try stretcher mi
Father God, dem a stress me oh Lord
So guide and protect me through times it's so hard
Almighty God, a you bless me oh Lord
Dem a try pressure mi, but nuh mek dem get the best of mi
Now the priests and the Saints think yuh ready fe the earth
"It's the signs of the times", a that dem preach inna the church
Gino Jennings still a gwaan like him been doing yuh work
I mean we affi think twice because him stay pon we nerves
It's dismal fe hear the scriptures and him twisting all the verse
Pon television with a mission just fe diss up all the girls
Dem invite Mr. Vegas then tear off him shirt
Upset the nation and people seeking salvation and rebirth
Now the talent wha mi have, it's like a gift and a curse
The way mi spit mi rhymes some hate it how mi flip it and reverse
Mi nuh fear adversary because mi been through the worst
Mi know the fountain of life a deh mi drink fe quench mi thirst
You illuminate the world, that mi read inna the Psalms
Lightning flash and thunder clap a mek dem weak inna dem heart
Dem fear mi from mi born, that mi read inna dem palms
Mi have a chip pon mi shoulder, mi ago always carry on
Almighty God, dem a stress me oh Lord
Guide and protect me through times, it's so hard
Almighty God, a you bless me oh Lord
Dem a try pressure mi, some a dem a try stretcher mi
Father God, dem a stress me oh Lord
Guide and protect me through times it's so hard
Almighty God, a you bless me oh Lord
Dem a try pressure mi, but nuh mek dem get the best of mi
Almighty God, dem a stress me oh Lord
Guide and protect me through times, it's so hard
Almighty God, a you bless me oh Lord
Dem a try pressure mi, some a dem a try stretcher mi
Father God, dem a stress me oh Lord
Guide and protect me through times it's so hard
Almighty God, a you bless me oh Lord
Dem a try pressure mi, but nuh mek dem get the best of mi
