Hey God

Hey God, I'm just a little man; I got a wife and family

But I almost lost the house; I bought into the dream

We're barely holdin' on, when I'm in way too deep

We're two paychecks away from living out on the streets

She's a workin' single mom; like a Saint She don't complain

She never says a word

But she thinks that she's to blame

Her son just got convicted; he blew some cop away

She did her best to raise him, but the world got in the way

Hey God

Tell me what the hell is going on

It seems like all the good shit's gone

It keeps on getting harder hanging on

Hey, hey, hey, hey God

There's nights you know I want to scream

These days you've even harder to believe

I know how busy you must be

But hey, hey, hey

Hey God

Do you ever think about me

Born into the ghetto in 1991

Just a happy child playing beneath the summer sun

A vacant lot's his playground, by 12 he's got a gun

The odds are bet against him, junior don't make 21

Hey God

Tell me, what the hell is going on

It seems like all the good shit's gone

It keeps on getting harder hanging on

Hey, hey, hey, hey God

There's nights you know I want to scream

These days you've even harder to believe

I know how busy you must be,

But hey, hey, hey, hey God

Do you ever think about me

I'd get down on my knees

I'm going to try this thing your way

I've seen a dying man too proud to beg spit on his own grave

Was he too gone to save

Did you even know his name

Are you the one to blame

Ha, I got something to say

Hey God

Tell me, what the hell is going on

It seems like all the good shit's gone

It keeps on getting harder hanging on

Hey, hey, hey, hey God

There's nights you know I want to scream

These days you've even harder to believe

I know how busy you must be

But hey, hey, hey, hey God

Do you ever think about me

Do you ever think about me

Well, hey God, hey God

Think about me

Do you ever think about me

God, hey God, hey God

Think about me
