letra de battered - david gift

from the psych ward

from jail to the psych ward back to jail

now i’m at rice street
thought i had this thang beat
wish i could retreat. trapped behind the concrete
flip flops on my feet. 2 trays to eat. lunch was baloney
thinkin’ bout mickey d’s. maybe a 2 piece. wit a cupa sweet tea
man all the memories. prayin’ lord help me
yea i shed plenty tears . thinkin’ bout my golden years
how i end up right here? i was livin’ in fear
wit a buncha crazy peers. they wanna fight
i had to duke it out every night. this can’t be life
nothin’ there was right. i read the bible and i saw the light
it was bright. little did i know, i would be alright
my cellie said read psalms. put the bible i my palm
got letters from my mom. had to live strong
tampa where my dad came from for a visit
told me straight up specific. stay in the word
stay ready for the jerks. in the end get the perks
he knows your worth. and keep god first
in the name of yahshua you will be delivered
read job. helped a lot. r.i.p. to my pops

i was battered. my world shattered. fightin’ for my life
i was battered. my world shattered. fightin’ for my life

waitin’ for a court date. freedom was my mind state
and it can’t come late. didn’t work that way
sent me “up the road.” for my first and last time
rape was on my mind. didn’t know what to expect
or what’ll happen next. or if they’d disrespect
had to learn the hard way. man i wish i could forget
dad came to visit there. i was in my 3rd year
we hugged. we talked. we ate. we laughed
the last time i saw my dad. before he p-ssed
his smile was so big. now heaven where he live
i got a raw deal. with the system no chill
in the process jesus became . my everything!
my lord and saviour. he is the anchor
that keeps me steady. he was getting me ready
to fight these demons. i knew my reason
spread the gospel through light musick
keep the sound fluid. i’m like let’s do it
started a whole movement
bout 2 years later he answered my prayer
i’m up for parole. how i felt? you don’t know
like i hit the lotto. man, god is good! amen
god is good!!! all the time

i was battered. my world shattered. fightin’ for my life
i was battered. my world shattered. fightin’ for my life
i was battered. my world shattered. fightin’ for my life
i was battered. my world shattered. fightin’ for my life
