I work until my back
Is damn near broken
With sweat pouring down
This face of mine
To fill the empty stomach of my woman
But it's hard getting by
On nickels and dimes
I hope one day I don't have to worry
About if I'll make it through the night
Without my heart beating
As fast as it can
And thoughts overflowing
My broken mind
I pray to God
And hope he sees
What this life's
Been doing to me
And decides
As I beg at his feet
To have
A little mercy on me
The walls
Feel like they're caving in
While my vices
Start to sink in their grip
And the bills on the counter
Are stacking higher
But the weight on my mind
Ain't getting no lighter
I pray to God
And hope he sees
What this life's
Been doing to me
And decides
As I beg at his feet
To have
A little mercy on me
