[rap] It was once upon a time not long ago Lived a little black boy in the middle of the ghetto Pretty good kid but he always found trouble Inner city life it ain't hard to find trouble No income in the home you find struggle 2 years struggling it's no puzzle He hit the block hard and found him a hustle Burned the wrond bridge and now he needs muscle He tried to let it go but the streets don't forgive I guess they ain't heard of live and let live But after going round and round he broke it down finally found out That only god can save him now
[hook] Save me now, please save me now, save me now, please save me now I'm on my knees, down at the floor You're the one i need oh lord
Save me now
[verse 1] I heard the story many times before/still i'm wondering How in the world did i get here/and what am i doing Took the ring and acted like i do/without the ceremony Now i got three little ones and i'm/hurting and i'm lonely Threw away my dreams when i left school/now i'm 22 never should've choose him over you
[hook]
[bridge] Take me away/i don't wanna stay here I wanna go/back to the beginning To that place/where love is forever You and me together Lord will you please
