yikes! - the prayer, pt. 2 lyrics

[verse: g, the wiz]
deep thoughts, inside my head
and my account is in the red
some words best said i’ve put to bed
because my own d-mn book is hard to sell
and my last mixtape it couldn’t trend
because my label team is thin is as thread

i dropped it all clocked in at work
since eighteen i’ve been mopping floors
and yesterday i didn’t ask what for
i can’t believe it when the system won
and in my heart i couldn’t say i’m done
this was the first thing i fell in love
when i made a beat and wrote a rhyme
it didn’t cheat on me for a different life
i don’t need a wife and i don’t need kids
if i can’t live a life where i don’t pretend
that i can make it, make ends meat
and time i know i can’t defeat
death catches you when you expect it least
so i remember i still pay the lease
for my soul, for my body
for my words, for my journey
ones in you, and ones in me
you wake up daily but are you free?
are you your person or the catch
are you the bait or the fact

just a number on an epitaph
between two years you had a chance
but you left it all thinking that
i had tomorrow, but it’s today
yesterday i tell myself just what i said
right now today

and my biggest fear is that i’ll fall in love
with a girl who loves me back
because heaven knows i don’t stand a chance
of loving i, i don’t know who is that

but still i’ll try to be that guy
who does his grind and falls in line
on the web with a rhyme
without a limelight, without a dime

who am i to say that i’ll be famous
who said i ever wanted to be famous

so if i die tonight let my words be the light
to all the struggle rappers who bought their first mic
thinking
one day i’ll be just like my idols
who stand hours in the lines to get their name on posters
to ones desire

i look forward to the day when
i walk to the pearly gates
where i’ll know for sure, i’ll know for sure
if this life i lived was the one i was required

and i’m sorry, i’m sorry for what i say
i never took a sip of gin to kill a day
i only hit it once on a foggy day
so you would never know
of things i know i shouldn’t feel ashamed

this is my will, my prayer, kid cudi, part two
this is the hardest written part i couldn’t tell you
and this life design was so divine
that if i could make it in a sound
guess what i would find?
this is my song
my anthem to the afterlife
this is the only thing that i was able to call life

so sleep tonight
so sleep tonight
dear brother, dear sisters
dear mom, sleep tonight
so sleep tonight
so sleep tonight
dear brother, dear sisters
dear mom, sleep tonight

so if i die alone, if i die in my sleep
if i don’t wake up to go to work this upcoming week
just know god had other plans
a person to seek
a tired old soul watching stars as you sleep
so if i die tonight, if i die in my sleep
if the pulse goes flat in high pitch beep
just know i did everything i could
everything i could be
and god made no mistake on this fingerprint
yeah
